New number one in the coaches’ poll

Posted by HenryJames on September 2nd, 2008 under Football

It’s Southern Cal. Clearly ESPN the coaches are biased in favor of USC.

USC and Georgia traded spots with USC getting 23 first place votes to Georgia’s 20. Some Georgia fans are unhappy, others don’t view it as much of a problem since USC plays #3 Ohio State in two weeks.

It’s too early for Georgia fans to be getting upset about this. If Georgia goes undefeated or loses only a single game, they’re probably going to be playing for the BCS Championship.

  1. Some of us had them #1 all along.

  2. Fire Mark Richt.

  3. And Willie Martinez too.

  4. Bragg, did you take Detron Lewis?

  5. Georgia could actually be the best team in teh country and still lose twice. USC has to beat Cal.

  6. “Some of us had them #1 all along.”

    Yes, some of us did.

  7. I’m probably the only guy in the country who moved Illinois up after a loss.

  8. ded, he was someone’s freshman keeper last year.

    Nordie,

    Is that you being glib derived out of frustration (lord knows, I can empathize) or do you have actually have some source or evidence beyond the general media sources? Is that just conjecture that you’ve heard or do you know anything credible? Love to hear it if you do…..

    “This may seem arrogant but I believe its true – if you are a coach in virtually any sport at UT, you will be a good recruiter. The state is loaded with athletes, including basketball players, UT as a university is top-notch by virtually any measure and just really doesn’t have any serious in-state competition.”

    It’s not Brown’s fault they made a bad call. It is Brown’s fault giving the ball up there. In his defense, he was in a pretty sick spot in the corner. Not in his defense, he is allowed to dribble and shouldn’t BE in the corner in the first place.

    Last post-mortem of the season, so we’ve got that going for us, which is nice.

    Just a few thoughts on the game. I’ll do a season wrap up and preliminary preview in the next few days to tie everything in.

    A quick recap of yesterday’s action before we get to today’s tilts.

    Midwest – Kansas and Northern Iowa take care of business at the top. Tennessee squeaks by San Diego St, and the shocker of the day, Georgetown falls to Ohio. Just a complete no-show by the Hoyas, which we all knew they were capable

    I knew what you meant with the homer comment.

    I agree that it mostly comes down to Denmon and English shooting well again. They don’t have set career highs, but they do have to at least hit their season averages for Mizzou to have a chance.

    Barnes’ three “strengths”:

    Defense, rebounding, recruiting.

    This team just proved the first two are non-existent (out-rebounded by 25; fucking KIDDING me?) and the last one is over-hyped as well. Every ESPN basketball recruiting analyst who actually had Bradley ahead of Wall should be taken out back and executed Inglourious Basterds style.

    Trips,

    I hear ya. I’m frustrated as well. I guess I just don’t prescribe to such a black and white characterization of the situation. I do know that no matter what happened in the huddle, JCB made a dumb play. If Rick didn’t explain or remind him of the situation, then I
