Figured I'd go ahead and start this thread. When was the last time the #1 and #2 team met this early in the season?
8/20/2006 5:26:31 PM

8/20/2006 5:36:59 PM

8/20/2006 5:37:15 PM

8/20/2006 5:44:51 PM

8/20/2006 6:13:28 PM
Last time #1 met #2 so early?Duke vs. Texas last year in basketball I believe.
8/20/2006 7:08:20 PM
bah dum ching
8/20/2006 7:09:59 PM
maybe a Florida State vs. Miami?
8/20/2006 7:26:04 PM
its a nice little gamebut 1 vs 2 later in the season is a whole lot more significant
8/20/2006 8:11:38 PM
and no, Notre Dame will be neither 1 nor 2and no shit, early in the season means one of em is gonna lose[Edited on August 20, 2006 at 8:15 PM. Reason : f]
8/20/2006 8:15:00 PM
fuck osu is all i have to say
8/20/2006 8:20:01 PM
Later in the season is no more significant. If you are aiming for a national title, the computers don't look at when you get the L. One team will move closer to the Zona' and one will need a lot of help.

This will probably be the annual "Game of the Century."
8/20/2006 8:52:21 PM
I will pull for OSU since Mack Brown once coached at UNC.

"I know it's early in the century, but that right there might've just been the bluff of the century."-WSOP announcers
8/20/2006 11:45:27 PM
^^Also, if Texas wins, UNC will somehow take credit in sharing the win because they helped develop Mack Brown into the hall of fame coach that he is today

my only beef with OSU is that they get more calls their way than Duke. there could be a badminton game between schoolgirls in the Phillipines and OSU would find a way to get a first down out of it.that, and

8/21/2006 1:48:58 PM
no im saying it taskes away alot of the breath holding early and somewhat reshuffles the field

Both teams looked pretty damn good today, I can't wait for next Saturday
9/3/2006 12:42:48 AM
^ I don't know, the margin of victory in Ohio State's win over N. Illinois (23) looked questionable when compared to Texas margin of victory over North Texas (49). Should be a better game, but as of right now, Texas looks like the better prepared team offensively.
9/3/2006 1:41:58 AM
ohio state is the better team, periodbut the games at texas so anything can happen
9/3/2006 1:42:27 AM
^^You do realize that NIU is 10x better than North Texas don't you?
9/3/2006 2:28:46 AM
Ohio State is a better team. I hate to admit it, but they are.
9/3/2006 2:59:03 AM
Texas is going to win like they did last year at the "Horseshoe"
9/7/2006 11:59:36 AM
Oh well, when NCSU gets to #1 call me. But that might be kinda difficult since their probably won't be phones in the way far off distant future.
9/7/2006 12:02:55 PM
9/7/2006 12:05:31 PM
OSU got some help by Texas' top DB being a dipshit and getting suspended for the game.
9/7/2006 12:05:39 PM
I am soooo pissed I have to work Saturday night!! Thank god I have a friend with Tivo...but it still won't be the same watching this on Sunday. Shit.
9/7/2006 12:23:57 PM
im sure it will be on espn classic if its even remotely competitive
9/7/2006 12:26:12 PM
^^^^They don't for the most part, but they do when it comes to even being RANKED. Something that NCSU wont be, for a long long time.by the way the fact that you researched tons of my past posts, under a different name, makes me win even more. Thanks man, you are really making this too easy for me.[Edited on September 7, 2006 at 2:43 PM. Reason : /]
9/7/2006 2:43:10 PM
nah, didnt research your posts too much...was actually curious why you were suspended...that quote I got was from the last page of MacGyver posts when you were dissing on State last yearits cool though...you said polls dont mean shit...then you brag about OSU's rank...then in the Bush/Mario thread you said you'd probably hate yourself if you proved yourself wrong all the time...so you must hate yourselfps: too bad Maurice Clarett cant play in the game...or even not be in prison for being a fuckup either]
9/7/2006 3:13:33 PM
9/7/2006 7:08:05 PM
haha, I don't know man. Never getting into them is about the same as not even having a team.
9/7/2006 7:23:53 PM
9/7/2006 7:26:20 PM
Its not backpeddling. The top 10 is pretty much the top 10, the rankings in that are pretty much mute. Now if you aren't even ranked, or out of the top ten, then that matters.
9/7/2006 7:29:56 PM
speaketh the Georgia State College grad. Winner.
9/7/2006 7:31:23 PM
wait so you once said that polls don't matter then you say they do when you're in the Top-10. care to explain Cal then? i'm just messing with ya. i really don't care about poll BS. but i do think it's messed up that #2 ND gets booted down even though they won, just so the media can hype a #1 vs. #2 meeting.

I don't really need to. I honestly dont even remember saying they didn't matter, but whatever, I am sure I did. But you guys don't need to worry about the polls or being ranked, so don't lose any sleep over it.
9/7/2006 7:40:57 PM
9/7/2006 7:42:35 PM
lol. There's the Georgia State education talkin..
