Saturday Bye Week TV Watching (Open Thread)

PrintThe Bears get the weekend off right now, so you may be taking the weekend off from watching college football too. That's OK, I guess. I mean, it IS Fleet Week and all, and the Blue Angels are performing this afternoon. Might be nice to have a relaxing, stress-free weekend, what with the Bears guaranteed not to lose and all. Y'know, recharge for the Pac-10 stretch run and all. You wouldn't want to get all burnt out early, would you?
Still, if you're a college football addict like me, there's plenty of reasons to plant yourself on the couch for almost 14 straight hours today, and they get started early. Immediately following College Gameday is the Red River Rivalry (née Shootout) in Dallas at 9am West Coast time, following all the way through UCLA @ Oregon, which should end close to 11pm tonight. Here's a full schedule of games on TV, and others of interest:
Broadcast TV:
#5 Texas @ #1 Oklahoma - 9:00AM, ABC
Arizona St @ #8 USC - 12:30PM, ABC
Tennessee @ #10 Georgia, 12:30PM, CBS
#4 LSU @ #11 Florida, 5:00PM, CBS
Some juicy matchups here, although I'd be somewhat surprised if either 12:30 game was within 2 touchdowns at halftime.
Basic Cable:
Minnesota @ Illinois - 9:00AM, ESPN
Colorado @ #16 Kansas - 9:30AM, ESPN2
Nebraska @ #7 Texas Tech - 12:00PM, Comcast Sports Net Bay Area
Purdue @ #12 Ohio St OR Notre Dame @ #22 North Carolina, 12:30PM, ESPN
#23 Michigan St @ Northwestern, 12:30PM, ESPN2
#6 Penn St @ Wisconsin, 5:00PM, ESPN
#17 Oklahoma St @ #3 Missouri, 5:00PM, ESPN2
Once USC has finished putting away the Sun Devils, I'll probably spend the afternoon seeing if Javon Ringer and the Spartans can keep making Cal look good, or if they'll let 5-0-but-untested Northwestern ruin their first national ranking in quite some time. Penn State at Wisconsin also intrigues me, if for some reason LSU @ Florida isn't entertaining enough (i.e., the score is 7-3 in the 3rd quarter).
Premium Cable:
#14 Utah @ Wyoming - 11:00AM, The Mtn.
TCU @ Colorado St - 12:30PM, CSTV
New Mexico @ #9 BYU, 3:00PM, The Mtn.
Washington St @ Oregon St, 3:30PM, Fox College Sports Pacific (Comcast 415)
UCLA @ Oregon, 7:15PM, Fox College Sports Pacific (Comcast 116, 169, 410)
Checking my cable package, it appears as though I could get just about any game I wanted if I was willing to pay for its, I've only listed games of some interest. A couple Pac-10 games are on, although it appears that the only one I can watch is UCLA @ Oregon, which will be shown on 3 channels, all of them currently airing Jewelry TV. TCU should handle Colorado State without too many problems, but if they can't, Cal looks good yet again. Finally, although my cable package won't get me this week's BYU game, I can watch a rerun of last week's game vs. Utah State on BYUTV @ 5am this morning. I get BYUTV?? Weird.
Not on TV:
Arizona @ Stanford, 2:00PM
I'm actually really disappointed that this won't be on TV; not that I expect great football or anything, but I really wanted to take a look at Arizona, next week's opponent. See, while doing some research for an unrelated post, I uncovered some interesting stuff:
When I was coming up with my Top 25 for this week, I decided to start with a little unbiased reference, so I compiled the top 40 teams ranked by Jeff Sagarin's 'Predictor' rating, which he considers to be the single best number to predict the future winners. It mostly contained the usual suspects, and the top of the list looked a lot like the top of the AP poll, but one team in particular stuck out at me: Arizona at #13. Really? 13?? The Arizona Wildcats as the 13th best football team?
Granted, Arizona hasn't played a tough schedule, but other than the debacle at New Mexico, they've been running up the score on everybody: 70-0 over Idaho, 41-16 over Toledo, 31-10 over UCLA, and 48-14 over Washington. That's some serious offense, despite the mediocre competition.
However, it's pretty striking just how mediocre the competition has been. Sagarin ranks their schedule just 133rd in the country (includes I-AA teams; there are only 119 Division I-A teams), and the individual ranks of their opponents are not inspiring: UCLA (86), New Mexico (90), Washington (103), Toledo (121), and Idaho (192, the worst in Division I-A by a fair margin).
Yes, the Wildcats rank 2nd in the country in total defense, but look at the NCAA ranks of the offenses they've faced: 84 (Toledo), 93 (Idaho), 96 (New Mexico), 105 (Washington), and 111 (UCLA). And sure, ranking 8th in the country in scoring offense is also impressive, but they've faced equally flaccid defenses: 63 (New Mexico), 70 (UCLA), 76 (Toledo), 118 (Washington) and 119 (Idaho), with the last two teams being the absolute worst in the country.
Basically, I can't tell if Arizona is actually good, or their schedule is simply that bad. The fact that they lost at New Mexico certainly isn't a good sign, as the Lobos are hardly world-beaters. Sagarin's rating is impressed by the scoring margin, but I am not. Honestly, in what I saw of the UCLA and UW games, they looked pretty good, but more telling, the Bruins and the Huskies looked awful. I just can't tell.
Really, this is why I'm disappointed the 'Zona-'Furd game isn't on TV. I need another chance to look at them. Stanford, a bellwhether opponent? Sure, why not. These are not Walt Harris' bumblestums, or even Buddy Tevens' mediocrity. The Cardinal are a decent team, and if their stats don't quite show it (76th in scoring offense, 81st in scoring defense), it should be noted that Sagarin considers their schedule the 7th-toughest in the nation, and also considers them, by far, the best team Arizona will have faced all year. If Arizona blows out Stanford on the Farm, then I'll be a believer, and I'll head down to Tucson very, very wary. However, I have a feeling that the Cardinal will give Arizona all it can handle, and might come away with the win. In any case, this game *should* tell us a lot more about what Cal can expect in the desert next Saturday.
And Stanford? Currently, they sit at 3-3, with an outside shot at a bowl. However, to get there, I think they need to sweep their next 3 games, vs. Arizona, @ UCLA, and vs. Washington State. All of those are winnable games. However, if they come out of that stretch with any fewer than 6 wins, it's going to take a big upset to get that final win for bowl eligibility; they finish the season @ Oregon, vs. USC, and @ Cal. You hate to say a game on October 11th is a must-win for Stanford, but I think that's the case.

If he does play, he’s going to be terrible. He might hold up for a quarter or two, but then he’s going to play like a one-legged Nate Longshore from last year, except without a reliable O-line. If they want any chance of making a bowl game, they should just let Carpenter heal and try to take respectable losses against USC and Oregon.

yeah, i think ASU is starting a 5-game losing streak in the face, meaning they pretty much have to run the table after that to make a bowl game. frankly, i think both Arizona and Oregon State could beat them too, but they have to get one of those games.
So, basically, you gotta Go Bears!
Which is why Carpenter will play, since they’re approaching must win territory.

i thought i'd point out
that since the Pac-10 has 7 (seven!) bowl tie-ins this year, any Pac-10 team that gets to 6 wins is pretty much guaranteed to make a bowl game.
So, basically, you gotta Go Bears!
I thought there was a rule that any 7-5 team from any conference gets in ahead of a 6-6 team with a conference tie in?
i could be mistaken...i don't have time to look things up
i thought the rule was any 7-5 conference team gets in before any 6-6 conference team, and any 7-5 team without a conference tie-in gets in before any 6-6 free agent, but a 6-6 with a conference tie-in will get in before any 7-5 team without a conference tie-in.

“Fried Ice Cream”
Is that as good as it sounds?
by BearsNecessity on Oct 11, 2008 11:11 AM PDT reply actions
This actually sounds pretty good:
The dessert is commonly made by taking a scoop of ice cream frozen well below the temperature at which ice cream is generally kept, possibly coating it in raw egg, rolling it in cornflakes or cookie crumbs, and briefly deep frying it. The extremely low temperature of the ice cream prevents it from melting while being fried. It may be sprinkled with cinnamon and sugar and a touch of peppermint, though whipped cream or honey may be used as well.

Our girls sweep ASU on TV - Keeping the Pain Train going
Never mind the pink which was awful. Also Morgan Beck was out with an ankle injury and was replaced by the suck-tastic freshman Tarah Murrey, who refuses to spell her name conventionally. Hana Chutra had an ok game…she had 14 kills but we were feeding her the ball way too much cuz Morgan was out… she only hit with a .286 kill pct… and 6 errors, she can play better than that. She was serving the ball great tho… with 3 service aces she was jamming those balls down those girls throats… (wait, can I say that about a woman’s team?). We played alot of our second stringers during the third set and it was the only set ASU broke the 20pt threshold.
The No. 5-ranked California volleyball team (15-1, 5-0 Pac-10) won its 10th consecutive match tonight at Haas Pavilion, defeating Arizona State (10-7, 1-3 Pac-10) in three sets (25-16, 25-12, 25-21) to post its second-longest winning streak in school history. The Golden Bears have now won their last 26 sets, and threaten the all-time school record of 27 when they face Arizona tomorrow (Oct. 11) at 7 p.m. Cal was led tonight by junior outside hitter Hana Cutura’s match-high 14 kills (6e, 28att, .286) and three service aces.
My Game Ball goes to: Carli Lloyd (setter)- 31 frickn assists but also had 6 kills on 6 attempts (1.000 kill pct!!!)… she also had 8 digs… 8 DIGS! And a blocked shot… she had a great game and ran our 5-1 offense to perfection even without one of her hitters Morgan Beck. She was one of the most sought after freshman quarterbacks in the country and now she’s living up to the hype during her sophomore year.
Game Ball runner up: Shannon Hawari (middle hitter)- Coach made a controversial move this year benching senior Kat Reilly for freshman Hawari… but it looks like it was the smart move cuz Hawari had 6 kills with a .556 kill pct. and a blocked shot. That’s all we can ask from a freshman.
Goat of the game: freshman Tarah Murrey (outside hitter) – Replacing Morgan Beck off the bench, she sucked ass last night. 5 kills on 19 attempts for a pct of .053 AND 4 errors… jesus. She also had 2 service errors AND 2 blocking errors… Amra Solomon was Morgan’s primary replacement and she played well with 9 kills with a .400 pct and only 1 error. Keep Amra out there… please bench the freshman.
Is Tarah Murrey the Chet Teofilio of your eye?

That’s the thing. When defenses do help a team win, everyone says “defense wins champtionships.” BUt when offenses win games, nobody says anything. People take offense for granted thus it’s not as noticable when they do things right and win. But when defenses are spectacular, they stand out more because it’s unusual and not taken for granted.

They outgained Utah by 100 yards, got twice as many first downs midway through the 2nd…and they were down 20-0 because of a blocked punt and a pick-six.

Seriously. When you struggle against San Jose St., like Hawaii did, you have no business playing in a BCS bowl. I don’t care what your record is. This BYU team is the same deal. A joke. Washington is clearly a mediocre Pac-10 but BYU needed the refs to hand them that game. New Mexico got rolled by Tulsa and while they did beat Arizona, no one is talking about Arizona, Washington, or Tulsa playing in a BCS game.

Not that it would happen this year, but wouldn’t you be angry if BYU took a spot that would have otherwise gone to a more deserving Cal team with an at-large bid?
Yeah, the Rose Bowl is obviously the payoff, but Cal would havecontrolled their own destiny to win the conference to get the automatic berth. So I don’t get too mad about losing an at-large bid to a midmajor.
by BearsNecessity on Oct 11, 2008 4:41 PM PDT up reply actions
Well I would be furious and but I certainly respect the arguments for mid-majors. I just happen to think that Boise St. was the once in a generation exception to the rule. Utah got lucky facing a week Pitt that didn’t belong in the Top 25 and Hawaii got what they had coming to them from Georgia. Still, the way the Pac-10, Big-10, and ACC suck this year, no one really deserves an automatic bid.
Doesn’t it seem hypocritical to bash the SEC for claiming their superiority to other conference, then go around and bash the midmajors by talking about how much bigger and badder we are than them?
College football is a game of inequities. Everyone should be rewarded based on the tiers they are given and the options they are provided.

Watching this Washington State-Oregon State game
I’ve been watching Pac-10 football for a long time and I cannot remember a team that was less competitive than the 2008 Cougars. Holmoe’s 2001 Golden Bears were a powerhouse compared to this team.
Riley should pull Sammie Stroughter right now
He’s got a hip problem and they obviously don’t need him to win this game (which is 21-0 early in the 2nd and could easily be 28-0 if Moevao hadn’t thrown an interception in the end zone).
I cannot emphasize the suckage Auburn is
Arkansas 335 yards, Auburn 83, 18 first downs to 6, Burns and Todd have thrown five completions and two picks.
If it wasn’t for Arkansas playing like crap (three turnovers), they’d be winning outright.
'Furd's on their third string quarterback
And they’re still picking up first downs. They’ll find a way to screw this up, but Arizona’s passing D isn’t looking quite as impressive as it did last week.

For the second time in three weeks, the top three teams in the country (who were playing) go down
Wonder if this will become a trend.
This is really good for us, also. In my opinion, the most likely way for Cal to get to the Rose Bowl is for USC to go to the national championship. So, USC beats us, we go 10-2, and USC goes to Miami over 2-Loss teams (cuz there’s no way in hell that the Trojans go to Miami over a one loss SEC team like Florida (Already lost to Ole Miss and I bet they lose to UGA), UGA (Bama, plus they lose to LSU), LSU (I think they lose to Alabama and they just lost to Florida), Oklahoma (Texas, and I bet they lose to either Oklahoma State or Mizzou), Ohio State (Even if they win out, you can’t justify sending them to the NC over USC because USC beat them 35-3), and finally Penn St. (maybe only one loss). I’d put the odds of every single one of these things happening, along with ‘SC winning out and us going 10-2, at about 1-in-23,455. Best Case Scenario for Cal (assuming we don’t upset USC in the Coliseum): Texas Vs. USC in the National Championship and we play Penn State in Pasadena.

Have a little faith in your Bears
USC has shown that they can turn it over like mad men, and they’ve lost TWO Pac-10 games in each of the last two years…
We have hungry seniors on defense (Mr. Follett, Mr. Williams, Mr. Felder, to name a few) who haven’t beat USC while at Cal. We can put up some defensive/special teams gems. I think we have a legit shot against this team.

After barely beating Purdue in OT, losing to Boise State, getting destroyed by USC, and not showing much in this game against UCLA, Oregon hasn’t done much to impress me this season. I feel better about the Cal-Oregon game now than I did a month ago, but it will still be a tough test.
ಠ_ಠ
I’m looking forward to playing cal less and less each week.
Oregon can put up a good game, but to beat Cal, they’ll need to fix a LOT.
I feel like I know less about Oregon now than I did post week 1.
It's spelled "S-h-u-f-a-i-l"
Well, the thing that makes me more confident about the Cal-Oregon game is that its in Berkeley. Cal seems like a different team at home than on the road. We are scared to death of Arizona, not because they seem to be an incredibly good team, but because it’s on the road. So, the fact that Cal-Oregon is at home gives me some confidence that Cal can pull this off.
But we’re Cal fans. We never have confidence. Ever!

Normally I’m very concerned about Oregon, but like Berkelium 97 said, they’ve had some ugly downs (along with a few good ups), so I’m not really that concerned. I’m not expecting to roll them over, but it’s definitely not going to be a nail biter like last year.

Sure, but...
I don’t think we can judge the relative strength of SEC and Big 12… Very few serious out of conference match ups across the board for all of the top teams.
e.g. LSU could seriously suck with the horrible QB play… just look at how close the game against Auburn was. How would we know its real strength when they play teams like North Texas

we don't
it’s just a judgment i’m making based on some football games i’ve seen. i’ll readily admit i might be wrong, and i certainly wouldn’t stake anything important on my being right.
big XII looks pretty good this year, though.
So, basically, you gotta Go Bears!
There isn’t much that’s happened these first six weeks that should be surprising. Almost every team in the conference were turning over their offensive rosters.

Kevin Craft is actually sort of looking like a QB. He seems to have a better grasp on what he’s doing out there than when he first got into the games.

I will say this, though. If Oregon’s offense now consists of running Masoli to the left, I feel more and more confident about the game. What about Jeremiah Johnson or Blount?

If you key on Masoli, they’ll be running pretty free.
I think it’s really more of a game plan to run as much as possible. Regardless of the score and/or the clock.

Christ, the Pac-10 really does suck this year.
speaking of sagarin
to test how good the “predictor” rankings are, i dare one of you to use that as the sole source of info for fantasy pick-em. that should be a solid test.
an intriguing idea
probably wouldn’t be any worse than my current ‘shot in the dark’ method. and i’m winning!
So, basically, you gotta Go Bears!

J.J. just ran back the opening kick for the Cardinals against the Cowboys. You could tell how much his teammates love the guy by the size of the dogpile in the endzone.
