Obnoxious REAL Football Trash Talking Thread

[wildwest450]

Wow what a game! LSU and Miss state, battle of field goals, compelling football. My insomnia is cured, sure as hell. Go watch the last 5 minutes of Michigan and Notre Dame, that's how it's done in college.

A long time ago that game was all about defense and field goals. But I agree much more exciting these days.
Go <----

Yup. There are some real programs right there. You can't be serious. I will give you the LSU Miss St. game was slightly boring, but that was far from the normal SEC game.

Notre Dame hasn't been significant since the late 80's. Michigan since 1998. I will give them that they beat my Gators in 2003. But we sucked that year. And, unlike those two teams, have accomplished more than mediocrity since then.

 

[Stevo2569]

Exactly!
Michigan 2 and 0 against Florida.

 

[wildwest450]

Y I will give them that they beat my Gators in 2003. But we sucked that year. And, unlike those two teams, have accomplished more than mediocrity since then.

I guess you forgot all about 2008 when we beat the almighty Tebow as well. Hell, even our little brothers at State beat you fools. Typical sec mentality that no one else is relevant but you. For the record Michigan is 7-3 vs the sec in bowl games.

What else happened in 2008 with the Gators? After we lost by 1 point to a great SEC TEAM, we won the BCS National Championship.

And Miss. State didn't beat us that year. Or the next. The beat us last year when we were being led by a non-mentally engaged coach (due to health reasons), and an offensive coordinator who insisted on forcing Brantley to try to be Tim Tebow.

Funny that you're an Ol Miss fan and hate the SEC.

 

[Accidic]

I'm surprised someone actually considered Auburn to have a strong team in the preseason. I expected them to perform ~500 at best (and still do sadly) as a fan. In their limited defense their offense seems to be doing ok but they have nearly zero defense to speak of which ironic since their head coach is an UNBELIEVABLE defensive mind. On the other hand at least they never give up...

That said:

MWC may be losing teams currently but they'd have had little reason to have done so if they had the BCS berth they've deserved for more than a few years now.

Speaking of BCS berths... Outside of Oklahoma and Texas (albeit not this year ) and sometimes Nebraska before they left they really don't have any overly strong teams on a consistent basis. Mizzou is the closest to try and claim any real consistency on that front and they've still not stepped up above that merely "Good" level in my eyes yet. Kansas is Basketball aside from a few fluke years. ATM is decent but they're only at that "Good" level as well (and headed to the SEC to boot ). Really OSU is the only team I see still there that really is close to hitting that "Elite" gear.

Michigan. Yes, they're good in the Bowls on good years... I would never claim them a chump team. That said I will hate Michigan eternal purely on account of one ****** which is pretty sad as otherwise I'd have every reason to like them. On the other hand I couldn't bring myself to pull for OSU even if I tried if only to spite them but I suppose I could settle for Michigan St. but that doesn't seem to carry the same maliciousness imo.

Notre Dame sucks if for no other reason that the special treatment they get as opposed to the other schools. I see very little difference in them schedule-wise versus the typical BCS buster teams (Formerly Utah, TCU, Boise St. Etc...). Frankly I'd rank the oft-scheduled Michigan ahead of their typical USC scheduling but that might admittedly be maliciousness towards USC.

USC: The only school I threatened to disown my daughter if she considered attending. I don't care if she chooses any other school in California or even the ever-evil Michigan by contrast. My hatred for them is an ever increasing mountain with no apparent peak. I'm just surprised they got slapped with "real" sanctions for a change and they didn't get redirected on Alabama St.

 

[wildwest450]

Michigan State not miss state. Don't ever confuse me for an sec fan. And yes, congratulations on your three national championships in 105 years, stellar.

I see. How many in the last 5 years? 15?

As for me, I think I speak for all Gator fans when I say that you can have your 11 National Championships. Considering only 1 came within the last 60+ years.

I will say this, at least the Big 10 (or 12?) people are passionate enough to post on here. I am still in disbelief more people aren't on this thread. Maybe with my title they think it's about soccer?

 

[Accidic]

I really don't see the SEC hype you speak of save for a few limited situations. Yes, the announcers have SEC hardons but announcers are generally stupid and frequently proven wrong (or in the case of Lee Corso ALWAYS proven wrong but also ALWAYS funny. ). The stupid trashy Alabama fans (please note I'm not referring to all Alabama fans here but rather a specific subset of them of which every single team in the country as far as I can tell has at least a few mutations of) and their arrogant sister Tennessee variants. I'm rather curious about the Tennessee ones over the past couple years as I've not observed them firsthand in recent years after being bludgeoned over coaching issues.

Other than that I've seen large numbers of Auburn, LSU, Georgia, and Florida fans speak very highly and praisingly of various teams in a variety of conferences. First and foremost of that bunch the B1G. So I just don't see it. It could be the 7 out of 12 NCs awarded with the BCS system (regardless of the cause) and that doesn't even address the undefeated Auburn team in 2004 regardless of how you feel about their "Citadel" scheduling. Pretty sure most Michigan fans won't begrudge them that after getting beat by Appalachian St. IIRC.

Also if you're picking arbitrary stats like that wouldn't that be like pointing out TCU is undefeated in both the Sugar Bowl and Rose Bowl games they've played there (And yes, they've had more than 2 total berths.......).

Would you like to tell us where your real spite for the SEC comes from? Because from where I'm sitting you're just as poor a fan representative as the Alabama and Tennessee obnoxious fans I mentioned above.

Perhaps the sound of 100,000 pick up truck horns honking simultaneously at every Vol. touchdown has him a bit jaded.

Great post. Agree 100%.

Although I have never had many problems with Bama fans. UT on the other hand...

 

[Accidic]

Oddly enough years ago the Alabama fans were considered to be the "classy" fans of the two. Now a days it's the other way around per the opinions I've heard. Exceptions to this is on the Paul Finebaum show as Paul has been in the tank for Alabama from the first time I heard his show. I don't actually believe he bears Auburn any malice necessarily, but it amuses me to hear him claim he's not an Alabama fan. Perhaps in his shows preceding 2006 he wasn't so in the tank for them? Frankly I would have expected him to be a TN fan.

That said I'm dispositioned to not care for OSU in any game save the Mich/OSU game. As far as pecking orders go they're near the bottom of my totem. I'm really disappointed for Boise St that Georgia appears as if they may go "defeated" this year. I'd very much like to see Boise vs LSU (whom coincidently I believe to be better than Alabama but we'll see in a bit I guess) for the National Championship. Say what you want about them but as far as I'm concerned they could have easily punched one into the endzone at the end of the Georgia game with ease since voters are so easily swayed but they just kneeled on it and left with a meager 2 TD win.

It was a shame about Oregon last year. They're actually relatively high on my support list but not enough to supplant my favorite team. With Utah in the conference I now feel like there's two teams I can support in the PAC for a change.

 

[beersteiner2345]

Accidic- so what is your team then? Now you have me curious...

And I agree on Ohio State. I hate me some Ohio State.

 

[Accidic]

PS, having lived a short drive from Neyland... I don't know about 100,000 pickup truck horns being blown although I think the running jab is that the domestic violence cases after a loss skyrocket. (My mother worked @ UT Hospital and that's just what her colleagues claimed, I don't know if it's true.) Not funny if it's actually true but near hilarious if it's not.

 

[beersteiner2345]

Both Tennessee and LSU fans threw cups of soda and beer at my friend while at the game. She is married to one of the coaches at UF at the time, and was pregnant.

Now he coaches up North, but she said the LSU and UT fans were the worst she's come across of all the places they have been with the three teams he has coached for.

 

[Accidic]

I'm an Auburn fan. I've been one since I was 4. My Brother and Father are Alabama fans. I *THINK* my mother is a Tennessee fan. Most of my good friends are Tennessee fans.

That said I roughly go in no particular order:

Auburn: 25
SEC: 10
Utah: 8
Oregon: 6
Texas: 6 (Please note this is a closet level fan sort of thing. Generally it's not my type of school but oddly I still rather like them. I've heard really bad things about their fanbase too which would deter but they did do me that solid in 2005 against USC so... Meh.)
TCU: 6
Boise St: 7
Michigan St: 5
Wisconsin: 4
Hawaii: 10 (But I'll never be able to view them as anything other than the "Rainbow Warriors")
ULL Ragin' Cajuns: 6 (I always get ULM and ULL mixed up. I still think one should just rebadge themselves "Louisiana" as LSU is *NOT* "Louisiana")
Georgia Tech: 2
Virginia Tech: 4
Cincinnati: 1
Minnesota: 2
Underdog: 8
Florida: 3
Arkansas: 4
Tennessee: 2
South Carolina: 2 (Their mascot is the "Cocks" ffs)
LSU: 1
Being Browbeat by announcers and given no respect: 5


OSU: -5
Notre Dame: -10
Michigan: -50
USC: -100 (They'd have matched Michigan but between living in Cali for half a decade as well as the whole 2004 debacle the Pacific Ocean could swallow them whole and I don't know if it'd hurt my feelings any)



Tally points for favorite of the game. I'm also glad to see ATM join the SEC frankly. If they pick up Mizzou as some have suggested I'd like to see Auburn/Alabama bounced to the SEC East. Auburn's always belonged there in my opinion anyway. I hate to see the loss of the LSU and Arkansas games but there's always the championship games. Basketball is of course another story. I have a softspot for Gonzaga there from before they proved to be annual bracket busters (they won me a *LOT* of money back in those days then made a lot of noise in the 64 to boot afterwards).

The funny thing is my ranking for types of sport makes no sense with the above mentioned...

#1 Football
#2 Hockey (albeit very close)
#3 Basketball
#4 Lacrosse
#5 Near anything else
#6 Baseball
#7 Golf

Did I mention #7 gave #6 a run for it's money?

 

[Accidic]

I can't speak for LSU fans at the game (although I'm related to a massive number of people in Louisiana who seem to be predominantly LSU fans) but for the Tennessee fans I've seen a couple people get the ever loving **** beat out of them for similar behavior (And yes, that's a Tennessee Vol on Tennessee Vol hate crime. ). I'm moderately confident any of my direct family members in the same situation @ Death Valley would create the same result in the same example.

Coincidently I got drinks thrown at me at an Illinois game I had the opportunity to attend and on a slightly different note in Detroit we were EXTREMELY hesitant to leave our hotel rooms after some hostility from the locals on our first day just trying to pick up a bite to eat at the restaurant we went to. Too bad Cheli's wasn't there at the time.

Also, having been to a GB game in GB and a game @ the Swamp it amuses me to hear people claim GB is the most intimidating place to play. The Swamp is ABSOLUTELY insane due to it's design the best I can tell. Supposedly it's built in a very large sinkhole so everything reverbs.

I love your ranking system. You have to be an accountant or statistician or something... lol

I agree on the Swamp. I had season tickets for the last 10 years, and only missed one home game in that time. It is insane how loud it can get. :rockin:

 

[Accidic]

It feels like the whole place is going to collapse or implode under the strain and pressure too.

 

[JonM]

And I agree on Ohio State. I hate me some Ohio State.

Can't spell "c**ksucker" without OSU.

 

[Accidic]

Nor can you spell it without USC.

 

[beersteiner2345]

Holy crap I think we have FIVE college football fans on here now! It's gettin good ladies and gentlemen! lol

God I miss the Swamp. We moved from Gainesville, FL here in June. Don't miss FL at all, but dangit if I don't miss being that close to UF.

 

[Accidic]

Btw, regarding the accounting thing... I've been an accountant (or at least pretended to be!) for a while and I do work with numbers currently but that isn't a hard and fast rule on the list. Just looked into my gut and spewed where I rated them. Underdog really does go a long way but you'll note even if Hawaii was the underdog against AU for the national title I still couldn't bring myself to hope for them to win even if the announcers dogged them. Now maybe if it was for a chance for Hawaii to play for a NC and AU was having a poor year already or something or it wouldn't really affect them to lose it for some reason then *maybe* but then still only *maybe*.

 

[cabal09]

Wait an Auburn fan calling out USC for cheating? Thats pretty bold, don't you remeber a guy named Cam Newton? Or what about this;

Auburn has had seven major NCAA violations in its past, most involving paying and buying athletes.

This makes Auburn by far the worst NCAA violator in the SEC, and yet Auburn fans bristle and act indignant if someone dares to suggest that Auburn could be involved in the Cam and Cecil Newton pay for play situation?

Auburn fans remind anyone who dares accuse Auburn of any wrongdoing involving Cecil Newton or anyone claiming that Cam Newton was aware of what his father was up to that there is no proof.

The NCAA did say, “Based on the information available to the reinstatement staff at this time, we do not have sufficient evidence that Cam Newton or anyone from Auburn was aware of this activity.”

Or how about this;

After Pat Dye resigned, Terry Bowden, the son of college football legend Bobby Bowden, was hired to replace Dye in 1993.

Bowden said the program he inherited in 1993 included an elaborate system of paying star high school players up to $15,000 to sign with Auburn and $600 per month while on the team.

“Bowden said he learned of the major NCAA infractions within days of being named Auburn ’s head coach, but kept quiet while trying to clean up the program from within.” I broke the rules,” Bowden said. “I told Wayne Hall to pay it off to the players we already had and it will never happen again.”

 

[beersteiner2345]

I hear you. Although I would have to eliminate the possibility of a loophole that would have me going for any team against UF. Never could in any situation.

Funny I got the accountant thing. I am a number nerd myself (not an acct though), and I can usually spot a fellow n.n. from a mile away.

Sounds like jealously.

 

[Accidic]

Dude, with all due respect right now only the Buffalo's and the non-AQs are jealous of Michigan. That said, my reason for such spite towards Michigan has zero to do with the school itself.

Wait an Auburn fan calling out USC for cheating? Thats pretty bold, don't you remeber a guy named Cam Newton? Or what about this;

You'll note I never claimed innocence on the Newton thing. Whether he's being honest or dishonest for his part of it (I suspect dishonest before you bother asking or just rampantly guessing again...) and since you were so kind to pick up and run with my USC hypocrisy... USC has a terrific history of such things. Yes, they were busted recently. Yes, they had wins vacated. Yes, they lost one of their National Championships as a result of it. But may I remind you there is a reason people joke about USC cheating so bad they slapped sanctions against <insert team here> (Over here it's Alabama St).

Furthermore, If you believe for one minute that ***ANY*** major school isn't guilty of such behavior you're a fool. Having been friends with several starters on a major 1A school's team I can tell you that their "Scholarship" is a joke compared to the hell they put those kids through not even addressing the physical abuse their bodies take as a direct result of it. And with the money made off College Football (granted I know it's unique in this respect) I personally think it's a travesty that the NCAA isn't required to funnel a portion of the money they make on said sport back to the kids participating in it. Does that excuse the Newton fiasco? Absolutely not. Does that excuse the corruption present when Bowden took over? Absolutely not. Do I blame Bowden for dealing with it the way he did if that is indeed how it happened? Probably not. Does the occurrences make Auburn the worst offender in the SEC? Perhaps, but whether they're ACTUALLY the worst offenders in the SEC remains to be seen. They've just been stupid enough to get caught more than any of the other schools.

Try going down to the field after the game as they're leaving and watch the money changing hands in regards to the big time programs (ESPECIALLY If they're successful). I don't really care which team it is. Feel free to take your pick. I would even bet it happens at places such as Notre Dame for that matter. As for the Newton thing I didn't make the judgement call in that case and it is what it is at this point until he's proven guilty apparently. And to be honest, I feel that Auburn should have split the National Championship with TCU but the BCS would have too much egg on it's face to allow such a thing.

 

[Accidic]

And just to clarify, the reasoning behind her not allowed to go to USC has nothing to do with the fact that I believe them to "Cheat" as much as any other NCAA 1A team... It has to do with utter contempt for the place in general.

 

[beersteiner2345]

Finally! Some good debate going on.

I hate USC as much as anyone, they are without a doubt in my Top 10 Most Hated Teams in Sports, but damn if they don't have the best lookin' cheerleaders of any school I have seen so far!

And I know Michigan is a fantastic school academically, but I don't think their football program has made anyone jealous any time recently. lol
