Around SBN: Penn State Recruiting Roundup Is Set For A Big Junior Day

BN Gameday: Kansas State Pre Game Thread (Pete Carroll Is A LOSER Edition)

We are hours away from our game but this is turning out to be a beautiful Saturday already.

Congrats to Jake Locker ... right now one of the favorite players in Bruin Nation. Go Huskies! Huskies embarrass Chetey Petey in Seattle. Meanwhile, the Volunteers lose to Florida in a hard fought game down in the swamp.

It's a wacky Saturday. I still don't know if Tennessee defense is that special or if Florida is not as dominant. Whatever it is given what we have seen, it should clear how we can't take any game for granted and how our guys need to be even more focused and respectful of Kansas Sate.

As sweet as the Trojan loss tastes, we still have to take care of business on our end. Still there is never a bad time to celebrate a Trojan loss in BN. Fire away!

GO BRUINS.

Remember Stanford's win over SC?

That same night we lost to Notre Dame and it ruined the night for me. This day is only right if we take care of business tonight. I love to see SC lose, but I’d much rather see us win.

so true.

I’m so sick of loser Bruin fans (none here, btw) who say “as long as ‘SC loses I’m happy”. What a loser slogan, man …

This place needs to be all about winning the PAC 10 and what possible BCS Bowl or Nat’l Championship Game we are playing in.

You can now see why Pete Carroll lied to Mark Sanchez

about his draft status. WIth a great qb, his squad is good enough for a national championship. Without, they are going to lose 3 or 4 games this year.

Its still unforgivable that PC would be that selfish and lie to the kid for his own benefit, but it wasn’t stupid.

They lost that Ohio State game in my mind

if it wasn’t for the TD that was given to them and the conservative play calling… Sark had the right idea with the conservative play-calling there, that’s when you use it.

totally agree

This is still, obviously, a very, very good team, but with either Corp or Barkley, losing three or even four wouldn’t be that big a surprise.

Whether or not they told him wouldn’t have mattered much IMO. His mind shut down for a moment.

ND doesn't have a defense

they are gonna do nothing this year. Beating a middle of the pack big 10 team at home means nothing. The fact that it is considered a big victory shows how far the ND program has fallen.

Agreed.

MSU lost to Central Michigan last week, and ND is happy to squeek by with a 3 point victory at home.

I honestly thought Weis would make a difference. OOOPS. The only question now is how soon they get rid of him and replace him with John Gruden.

Washington or Stanford

Which is more humiliating? I go with Stanford because of the spread on that game, as well as that it was at the mausoleum. Losing to a team that went winless last year is pretty dang good though (No Locker, and Willingham as coach though).

Welcome back to Earth, $C...

you knew it was gonna happen sooner or later. Clearly, Corp isn’t that great QB and Barkley is just too green, they’re making Barkley out to be the next Heisman winner… fact is, he’s bound to lose down the road too. This SC squad could potentially lose 2 or 3 or even four games with Cal, Oregon, and our Bruins down the road. The only thing I don’t like about this game is that Sarkesian won, I can’t stand that bastard either… but of course, I’d rather see Cheaty Petey lose any day.

Bruins must take care of business tonight… they MUST. It’s imperative that we remain undefeated… esp. after this game. FUSC!!! Go Bruins!

SC SHOULD be 1-2 if you think about it..

Given how they literally ESCAPED last week, this team could and should have been 1-2 after today… but oh well… Hopefully they’ll get slammed down the road by a few of the other teams in the Pac-10. Given the greenhorn status of both Corp and Barkley, I would bet money on the Bruins beating these clowns in November. But that’s obviously getting ahead of ourselves… Winning tonight could build the necessary momentum we need to go far this season… KSU deserves our attention and we should thrash them HARD tonight.

They lost that game to Ohio St. if they weren’t GIVEN that TD and the conservative calling of Tressel they are 1-2. They are going to lose some more. Oregon, Cal, maybe ND, and US! We got a shot.

It's Dangerous to compare game scores

But Florida beats Tennessee 23-13 at the Swamp, and we beat Tennessee 19-15 at Tennessee. Oddsmakers say the home field is worth 3. Add 3 to our score and take 3 away from Florida, and you have basically the same game score. Again, that’s a dangerous thing to do, but it has to make you feel like our defense is pretty good and that we can compete.

… USC’s loss good stuff, but did anybody watch Washington during that game? They looked pretty damn good. I’m worried about them when it’s our turn to play an invigorated, confident Washington team.

It's really sad...

If UCLA loses a football game, there is always basketball, and of course academics. If USC loses, there’s no basketball, obviously no academics, only a chance to make the police blotter again and again.

by ucla7477 on Sep 19, 2009 4:55 PM PDT reply actions  

USC's offense

Is definitely a work in progress. Two straight games under 20 points. I’d be willing to bet that that hasn’t happened in at least 8 years. Cal has a great shot to beat SC in 2 weeks. Chances are, however, that USC’s offense improves as the year goes on, so it would be best to face them sooner (cal) rather than later (ucla).

by BruinsRule on Sep 19, 2009 4:56 PM PDT reply actions  

But I would be willing to bet

that u$c* has zero confidence on offense right about now. That is going to be hard to overcome. They aren’t coming off a dominant performance in Ohio and they lost this game, so I think they are pretty down right now. I would be interested in seeing how they come back. I hope they don’t but then again, I hate them.
