Roll Tide and Boomer Sooner! In the end, it is the Crimson Tide, and the T-shirt fan gets a new NC T-shirt!

Hated to see the Texans lose this one. While Buffalo is a tough road game, it's hard for me to respect Rex Ryan. If it weren't for his Dad, he'd be working at the ladies dept. at Boot Barn. Next week will be tough, but they will be at home. I'm still pulling for them, but know realistically, they are still the Houston Browns...

Playing catch up on the board tonight. Watching the Steelers-Colts game and can't take any more of the Collinsworth jabber. Besides, y'all are a lot more interesting! Here's my take on the coaching hires... First of all LSU remarkably made the right choice keeping Miles. I hope they support him enough to get some more help. Georgia fired a great coach, but got a interesting hire. I'm a Kirby Smart fan, but it remains to be seen what he can do as a HC. He is one of their own, so I'm betting on him to bring success. Saying that, Miami got a great hire in Richt. I'm hoping he turns around the U. The Muschamp hire makes no sense. If he failed at Florida, how can anyone expect him to succeed at SC? The biggest surprise to me is Tom Herman. His name has been linked to every opening, yet he signs an extension at Houston. I do like that though. Great for UH! Lastly, I hope coach Strong recruits well and kicks some butt next year. It's time to bring some pride back to Texas!

They are still the Houston Browns.... And the Dallas Browns! Hearing a little life from the Dallas folk. They are again one sack away from being in as bad a QB situation as Houston. Neither team can run the ball. Houston's defense showing a little life. I'm glad there is still football on Saturdays!

Great call! You da man!

Pafam, I kinda hope you are right... My only reservation here is because I have a bunch of Bengals on a Draft Kings ticket. I'll forfeit my $3 for the Texans to knock off one of the undefeated! Plus, the Cowboy fans silence will be deafening! I blame Kubiak for Peyton Mannings downfall. I know he's getting older and beat up, but this year is uncharacteristic even for Manning. Give us some gloat in the morning!

All these could go either way. I think I like Baylor over OU, but wouldn't bet on it.

I don't see Strong leaving Texas right now. Miami is a step down the career ladder. Aside that, I don't see "pine box" Tubberville as a good fit in Miami either. Cristobal would be the best guy if he is ready for a HC gig.

Why? Pinkel stood with his players, not that he really had any other choice...

Brown had some good plays on special teams early in the season. Due to work schedules, I haven't kept up as much lately. I do hope he keeps his head on straight and stays at Bama.

I tire of Musberger, but will trade Gary & Verne for him right now!

Christmas came early! Much to my surprise, Bama shutdown Fournette and stole his shot at the Heisman. Maybe gives Henry the chance at the trophy. The Longhorns won big and Arkansas used all their luck to beat Ole Mess. Woo Pig Sooie! The poor old Aggies faltered, but you can't have everything. Great day for college football. Looking forward to the committee ranking in a few days. Roll Tide!

Well...at least you know what you have with Hoyer. Houston's biggest problemme right now isn't the QB.

Nope. I like Cook, but Fournette is the best in college football right now. I'd even put Chubb and maybe Henry before Cook.

Right hoops... Both Johnson and Crowell are beasts! JFF hasn't matured at all. If his primary receiver isn't open, he takes off running. He'll get killed like that in the NFL. Saying that, he still might be a better QB than what is starting in Houston or Dallas right now.

The SEC hate in here is strong! Y'all are discounting Ole Miss, but they are for real. Robert Nkemdiche is a young J.J. Watt. He got a concussion again Memphis, another team that is for real. LSU, Bama, and Ole Miss play each other and a lot more brutal schedule than ANY BIG 10, Pac-12, ACC or especially Big12 teams. While the selection committee posted their picks this week, they all knew it would change because of the Bama-LSU matchup. If FSU beats Clemson (which I doubt will happen) you will probably see a Big 12 school in the mix then. Of course, they love Notre Dame, so maybe not...

The remaining Houston Browns schedule is brutal. There won't be many happy endings. The Houston Browns will have slightly better draft picks than the Dallas Browns.

#4 LSU vs #7 Bama... everything else is background noise.

I was wrong again Mr Buddy Garrity! At least this time it didn't cost me a burger... Fitz has been a LOT better than Mallet. Mallet migt have agreat arm and talent, but he has mush for brains! Houston had no choice but to cut him, even without good viable options for a replacement. You are also right that the Houston team does not deserve to be called Texans. Until they right the ship, they are the Houston Browns. Don't get excited Dallas fans, your team is the Browns too. It sucks to be a football fan in Texas right now. Roll Tide!

My memory is shot, but didn't Murray Sr have an ankle injury? I was thinking that's why he left for the NFL, but my rear view mirror is kinda cloudy. I expect Murray to win this 3 day QB competition and start on Saturday. I still can't believe Sumlin let Allen self destruct for so long. Curious to see what happens.

A caller on XM College Sports was talking Rich Rodriguez for the Miami job, but I don't see it. Butch Davis has to be the favorite here. A lot of folks clamoring for Kirby Smart for the S. Carolina job. No ideas for the West Coast SC... Leach's idea of a defense is more offense. I don't see him as a fit for any if these jobs.

I logged in this morning to ask king, what now? You answered with the Butch Davis meme. I guess I will miss the airplane banners... They are as good as the College GameDay signs.

Did you see any of the Clemson-Miami game? There is hope for Arkansas; none for Miami...

Hang in there king. Put your U gear in the back of the closet for awhile and find another team to pull for... That works well for me and Mr Buddy Garrity! Of course, you will also be labeled as a t-shirt fan! The U will be back, but it's gonna be awhile.

baddog, I was thinking that after the Bama game. Allen had meltdown last week, and completely destructed last night. I used to criticize Urban Meyer for babying Tebow, but watching Sumlin let Allen burn uncontrolled is worse. That was the ugliest SEC game I've seen. Poor play is one thing, but the poor sportsmanship was worse. I expected an offensive shootout, but got a dumpster fire instead. All the Ags that threw rocks at Strong and Texas are looking silly now...
