Bedlam in Lubbock: Crabtree’s Tightrope With :01 Left Stuns No. 1 Texas, 39-33
College Football November 1st. 2008, 11:52pm
Tremendous finish. It’ll be debated, but we think Texas Tech let Texas score with 1:30 left just to get the ball back with plenty of time for Harrell to operate. In addition to the all-night party in Lubbock, we’re sure Gainesville will be rockin’. Your next game of the century: Alabama at LSU in Baton Rouge next week. If the Tide survive, the SEC title game vs. Florida will be for a date with Penn State. No, we didn’t forget about Texas Tech – it still has to face the Oklahomas.

“They tried to man-up Crab, and there’s not a man in the country who can man-up Crab.”
Great quote from Harrell, the guy who just threw for 474 yards.

Holy cow. That was a great finish. It takes Leach off the hook for going conservative in the 3rd quarter when he had the chance to bury Texas.
Give the Horns some credit for coming back like they did. McCoy is a gamer after getting beat on…

Graham Harrell, your future Vikings QB. I hope.

Best game of the year.

- I second that.

Fetch – Now there’s an idea! Gotta love what Harrell did tonight. awesome, awesome performance.
I loved Crabtree’s interview, too. “I dreamed it up. I swear!”

poor kid

Ben Affleck just did a hilarious spoof of Coundown with Keith Olbermann on SNL..
November 1st, 2008 at 11:59 pm
if this team isnt at least three in the rankings, the revolution begins and there will be nothing but bones left in my wake

Just catching up on SNL–Cindy McCain was actually the funniest part of the opening.

Haha you sound like a dream roommate.
November 2nd, 2008 at 12:12 am

November 2nd, 2008 at 12:12 am
dude’s parents pay his rent and give him like a thousand bucks a month allowance and he cant buy his own fucking tide? fuck him. its been going on since august, the hammer is coming down.
November 2nd, 2008 at 12:14 am
well, at least some broad tonight can’t say you have a dirty dick.
November 2nd, 2008 at 12:18 am
you sound like an asshole to me. why dont you just ask him to stop
November 2nd, 2008 at 12:20 am
This Affleck-Olbermann bit is like a freaking marathon.
November 2nd, 2008 at 12:22 am
no argument there
hed deny it, its happened before. hes the kind of guy who never buys communal shit but uses other people’s stuff. hes so cheap he measures out his cereal with a measuring cup so that he can get a certain number of breakfasts out of each box, illegally parks in the street every night instead of paying ten dollars a month for parking, stole someones bike but wont let me ride it because its his; hes a douchebag.
plus he made a fat joke about me two weeks ago that just isnt sitting right
November 2nd, 2008 at 12:23 am
The Olbermann bit was funny (and true) but just too long. Not unlike Olbermann’s diatribes.
November 2nd, 2008 at 12:23 am
oh man, i gotta give you credit moleman, your response cracked me the hell up. im with you now. fuck him
November 2nd, 2008 at 12:24 am
i caught the coldplay thing on snl around ten and it was ridiculous, the drummer or whatever was just banging bells and shit. such a bad band.
November 2nd, 2008 at 12:27 am
frankly i dont even know if a half detergent half urine mix will even do anything. just like washing clothes you pissed in i guess. and weve all been there i know.
my first thought was to just put my bleach in my detergent bottle, but thats too far
November 2nd, 2008 at 12:36 am
Hawkeye- How about Schroeder tonight huh? Kid is looking like a top half of the first round type guy.
November 2nd, 2008 at 12:38 am
Wouldn’t know, fetch. I was making rounds of bars in Hudson, Wi tonight instead of watching the game. I miss a good one?
November 2nd, 2008 at 12:41 am
Crabtree > Crabs
November 2nd, 2008 at 12:43 am
You sure did HawkEye. I hope Schroeder is around long enough in the draft for the Pens to nab him.
November 2nd, 2008 at 12:43 am
Tampa – isn’t the list of things that are better than crabs pretty long and distinguished?
November 2nd, 2008 at 1:07 am
Kwell shampoo > crabs
November 2nd, 2008 at 4:05 am
sometimes wnen i’m all alone i like to sit on my hand until it gets numb and masterbate… i call it a stranger

That was a very exciting game last night in Lubbock. Michael Crabtree made a statement with that last-second TD. And just think, Big Ten fans: he could come back for *two* more years if he wants, though I suspect that the redshirt sophomore is NFL-bound at this point.
November 2nd, 2008 at 9:53 am
Assuming Texas Tech can’t beat Oklahoma State, Oklahoma, and (presumably) Missouri, Florida just won the national championship last night. I’ll call that.

@TBL: I know ESPN is headed to ‘Bama/LSU, but that game means nothing in the context of OK ST/Texas Tech. As has been broadly established, on this site as well as others, LSU sucks. And should ‘Bama lose to LSU, this will generally reinforce the fact that ‘Bama sucks.
Last night was a battle between two really good teams. Unless ‘Bama blows out LSU, I’m predicting a battle between two teams trying very hard not to suck.
November 2nd, 2008 at 10:17 am
I know ESPN is headed to ‘Bama/LSU, but that game means nothing in the context of OK ST/Texas Tech.
As the LSU grad, I agree. But remember the network we’re talking about here. There are two things playing against it: 1) they’re not going to the same team twice in a row, and 2) (according to the television executives) it’s about drama and ratings, not football.
Nick Saban is coming back to the school he dumped 4 years ago on Christmas Day, as the head coach of the possible #1 team in the country and a bitter SEC West rival. It’s the “story of the year,” and is the “sexy” ratings game. Of course they’re going to go for it.
For the record, I agree with you. I hate the way they make it about the story and not about the game. And I’m not sure that I can take another week of ESPN making a college football game about Bobby Fucking Knight.
FWIW, Nick Saban has never had a perfect season, and he has one “shit the bed” game every year no matter where he goes. He’s lost at home to UAB and UL Monroe with good SEC teams. The year he won the ‘03 BCS title, he lost at home to a mediocre Ron Zook Florida team. I don’t think Alabama’s going undefeated, and it wouldn’t surprise if the loss comes Saturday. If Jarrett Lee ever stops throwing pick-sixes (he threw another one again last night against Tulane), LSU can hang with them.

i’m with tbl – ‘bama goes undefeated until sec champ. game, UF/PSU play for nat’l title. big12=cannibals
November 2nd, 2008 at 12:59 pm
@HawkEye19- that may have been part of the whole idea; the fact that KO loves the sound of his own voice, and tends to ramble. This was the first time in 10-12 years I’ve even flipped to SNL and I got to see the best acting of Ben Affleck’s career. Funny shit..
