Interesting scores.

[Plainosooner]

Horns just scored the tying touchdown in less than a minute. But the PAT was deflected, so they're still down 45-44. It looked to be wide right, anyway.

Onsides kick OOB. Game over.

Horns lose 45-44.

Ole Miss scores on the screwiest TD pass of the season. 24-10. over Bama. Sometimes, it's better to be lucky than good.

HA HA HA HA. Pooooor Texas.

 

[Plainosooner]

I was actually kinda pulling for Texas. Cal Berkeley's players are a bunch of .... fill in your own nasty epithet.

Frogs pull away late to beat SMU 56-37. Iowa State and Toledo were 23-23 after OT 1.

Toledo just scored to go up 30-23 in OT 2. Cyclones will now get the ball. ISU gets one first down but three incomplete from the ten and then a sack and Toledo wins 30-23.

Ole Miss now leads at Bama, 27-10. Bama punting 7:03 of the 3rd.

 

[K2C Sooner]

Ole Miss up 24-10 and driving against Bama BYU 10-3 vs UCLA

 

[Plainosooner]

Ole Miss 30-10. Under 4:00 left in the third. The freshman QB led them to a TD that got the crowd back in it. Bama overwhelmed the next Rebel series. End of the third, Tide down only 13.

I hope Miss. St. can hang on. The more above us that fall the better.

Don't be too surprised if the Horn Frogs are #1 this week. Puke.

 

[Plainosooner]

Miss St played the little sisters of the poor and won easily. That was like the tv guy who called OSU, OU last season. Those two schools don't get along well.

Bama has cut it to six, 30-24. The freshman qb has Bama going. Ole Miss has really benefitted from a bunch of flukes. Now, they have to execute with 12 minutes to play.

 

[Okie70]

wonder if Ala- Ole Miss will have a finish like Cal/Texas. Quite a game. UCLA coming back.

 

[veritas59]

3 or more here after the interception by Ole Miss will probably seal it.

 

[veritas59]

And just like that, they throw a TD pass.

 

[Plainosooner]

Hugh Freeze deserves a lot of credit. When the momentum went crazy the other way, and his 20 point lead dropped to six, he had the perfect play ready against Bama's aggressive corner run support. Feigning zone read keep, his third game starter threw just almost past the LOS, but not quite. It went for 71 and got the mo back. Scored again and now, after one failed two pointer, they are back up, 43-24. Treadwell scored the last one. After his injury last season, that was a sweet moment.

And on the road, no less. They're pretty good.

Is it the tradition, that is the seeming hate fest between Miss. St. and Bama? (ala OU/Texas)
Or is it a relatively new thing?

 

[Plainosooner]

Bama is doing it again. TD drive. Brilliant successful ONside kick. They missed the first two pointer. So they got 13 to cut it to 43-37. Bama fans who left when it got to 19 again are going to kill themselves if Bama wins this.

 

[Plainosooner]

At 12:30 in Oxford and Tuscaloosa, Ole Miss holds on to beat Bama, for the second Top Ten team to fall. Bama turned it over five times. Ole Miss none. And a couple of very interesting touchdown passes, and 43-37 is final.

And UCLA is up on BYU 24-23 with 1:45 left and ByU is trying to do it again. CLock stopped second and ten at the Bruin 45.

 

[Plainosooner]

Not tonight. BYU on fourth and eight throws a pick and with only one TO left, Bruins should win.

The Trivia answer: Texas A&M. Surprise.

 

[iasooner1]

The ucla pruins should have lost. And how about those mighty mizzou pinkels?
Plaino the fact that you can say with a straight face that you were pulling for the satan worshipers almost requires you to turn in your card; who cares about cal, they will lose to at least two other pillow fighters.

I'm glad bammer lost but now ole miss will take about four spots away from OU. I love (and am totally frustrated by this game!)

For instance next week the iowa hawks host North Texas Mean Green followed by
Wisky-Camp Randall
Illini @ iowa city
northwestern @ evanston
bye
maryland @ iowa city
indiana in indy
minnysota @ iowa city
purdue's big drum - iowa city & finally
debby in Lincoln

I believe I heard that theirs was the easiest schedule of all FBS in 2015 for a crack at the winner of the mich state-tosu winner and a possible auto-bid. (highly unlikely but possible for a team whose coach sheds tears after hard fought wins like tonight's last second 57 yarder for a 27-24 win over pitt, also @ home of course...)

For all the reasons I dislike UT, there is more reason to dislike Cal. As for football, I'm a little tired of hearing about how great the Pac Ten is. USC beats nobody, but is in the top ten. They got theirs last night, against the team who'd lost earlier to Northwestern and scored only six points, They scored 41 in Los Angeles.

I kept hearing about how great Cal's quarterback was. Then I saw him and thought I can't pull for that guy. And Texas got screwed on the ejection of their starting safetly, early. I understand the process and the intent. But guys making a football play shouldn't be penalized with ejection when the ball carrier makes an unexpected body movement late in the tackle.

I guess that a year from now, I'll be writing something here, and laugh about Texas' missing of an extra point to lose by a point. If you watch the alignment on the play, it was really funky looking. He was like a guy who just hit a really nice five iron, but realized too late that he didn't line it up carefully and hit it into the trees on the right because he wasn't headed in the right direction from his stance.

I am not one of those guys, perish the thought, who has any agreement with the sentiment I've read here recently that for the XII to be good, Texas has to be good. That is nonsense. I just want them to beat the other major conference teams when they play them ....... sometimes. But then go 0-9 in the conference.

Ya this was one of those odd games that if you look at the stats, minus the turnovers and score you would have sworn it would be an Alabama win. But those turnovers just killed them. Plus that freakishly lucky TD pass that bounced right into the Ole Miss WRs hands and he runs to the end zone. The breaks just didn't go Alabama's way, but that's how football works out sometimes. In the end Ole Miss took care of the ball and Alabama didn't. Can't play the "woulda, coulda, shoulda" game after time runs out.

 

[Plainosooner]

I think you're right on with the observations of Bama v Ole Miss. And the Rebels in a very hostile environment, had an answer. Every time. Part of it is what you do in critical situations. Mississippi was very good at that. Freeze can coach, especially with the talent he has assembled.
