I just turned it on. Kentucky I believe just had 4 straight offensive possessions where they had at least one offensive rebound and drew at least one foul. It's shocking to me this game is this close

Columbia up a point 5 minutes into the 2nd half!

As for the incident itself... If a man nearly a foot taller than me that outweighs me by 180 lbs strikes me twice in the face, I'm going to pull my gun out to try and get him to stop. If he goes for my gun I'm going to shoot him. If this happens, he walks off, and then for whatever reason starts coming at me again, I'm going to start shooting again, and not stop until he is no longer coming at me. It's not that hard to figure out. If Darren Wilson was just a regular citizen, this would never have been newsworthy. And if brown was a regular citizen, rather than a proven criminal just minutes removed from a crime featuring the same type of aggressive behavior that Officer Wilson claimed he displayed, I'd lend a lot more credence to the possibility that this was a needless killing of someone who wasn't doing anything wrong.

Self defense killings are still homicides. Homicide is most simply defined as one human being killing another.

In the case of the kid with the BB gun, it's my understanding that they did this, and instead of doing so he instead turned towards them with the gun. I think it was a deadly misunderstanding, but I can't blame an officer for shooting someone who is turning towards them with what appears to be an AK-47 after being ordered to drop it.

I saw this. It's very refreshing in a time where so many athletes are selfish prima donnas to see a guy care so much about someone other than himself.

So he should be good to go Sunday?

I think it will be a competitive game. Texas' D should keep it interesting, but I don't think the qb situation sets up very well for a UT win

I hope TCU blows them out and OSU bombs in the playoffs.

TCU by 14

crazy stuff!

neither. I don't see either having long or productive NFL careers. but if I had to take one, I'd take mariota.

pretty insane to me that it was only one vote that kept him out.  I'm all for people getting second chances, but I would assume his probably needs to be at a lower level than Superintendent.

And I agree with most all of THIS, but this is the national championship we're talking about here. not only would their schools travel better, more casual fans would go watch. that's the problem with all of the bowls but one in years past... they didn't mean anything. at least now we have 3 games that count instead of 1.

Seattle did the boys a favor this weekend. Now the boys have to help themselves...

Hogs are pretty good. I'd like our chances better against the ags.

They get the respect at the beginning of every year, and every year they lose to someone they shouldn't. Hard to blame the naysayers.

It's a joke. Ohio St has a valid claim to be in the playoffs. I think there should be a system in place where they get in. But not in the current system, at the expense of two teams with better resumes, better losses, and stronger schedules. Out of the 3 in the running for the final spot, OSU was a clear 3rd. That being said, i personally believe anyone that can play a power-5 schedule with only one loss deserves a shot at the playoffs. this season, 3 of 4 playoff teams are power-5 teams with one loss. No team that did make the playoffs was head and shoulders above the 5th and 6th place teams (I'm not saying Bama and Oregon aren't better, but I am saying their seasons as a whole weren't all that much better). An 8-team playoff would ensure that essentially every year any team who can make it through the power 5 conferences with 1 loss would make the playoffs, and also leave leeway for a team like Marshall to get a chance (had they remained undefeated). 8 is the way to go. The only positive about all this is that it only took one season to have a situation where there is a legitimate gripe about the new system that will exert pressure and garner support to expand to 8.

Hopefully FSU loses and partially solves the problem for us.

Which is why you need an 8-team playoff. Baylor, TCU, and OSU are as deserving as any team in the country to be in the playoff, and two of them are gonna get left out.

I was getting on here to say this. OSU is up 45-0 over #13 Wisconsin, which is an absolute shock. We've gone from possibly getting two in to possibly getting none in in the span of 8 hours or so.

You guys know I'm liberal when it comes to gay and transgender rights, but I'm in agreement with you here. Not only is it unfair in sports, but it's also inappropriate to have them in the same locker room.

Knew that was fake when I saw it.

Big win for the boys!

hate it for you if it happens. don't give the police a reason to use force against you and it won't. when you have a guy that size refusing to comply, there's no telling what might happen when several officers are needed to subdue him. your attitude that resisting arrest is some sort of right or something that folks should have without threat of repercussion is one of the problems in the debates about both this guy and Michael Brown. the thought that common criminals should be able to ignore police commands in this case, or attack an officer in the other case, and not face any repercussions or have any accountability for the result is prevalent, which is sad.
