byes suck... i was so hoping for a double advance tonight lol...


btw Ax completely ignored everything that was said in the last week discussion lol

Hashed nice and hoppin on to beat some Rutger ass.

-With a bye week upon us, lets take a look at the state of the MTSU program which is now in its fourth year under head coach Jeff Hickerson. The Blue Raiders currently stand at 3-2 on this year's campaign and are 1-0 in Big East play for the first time since Hickerson's first year on the job, it has always seemed they suffer a let down after opening the year playing great against elite competition, only to step on the field for that first conference game, 3 out of 4 years against Syracuse, and suffer a huge letdown. Not this year however, as the Blue Raiders had a miraculous come from behind victory outscoring the Orangemen 33 to 8 in the second half to get a huge victory. "Anytime you can start off 1-0 in conference it is huge, that is 1 game down that you wont ever fall back on the competition with, nobody in the conference can do better than what you did in your game, all you can do is get to 1-0," said Hickerson this week. MTSU will host a struggling Rutgers team after the bye week before traveling to Cincinnati who is also struggling mightily this season. They will then have another bye, and if they play up to their ability, which has always been a big if in the past with this team, they should be 3-0 in the Big East heading into Morgantown for a huge showdown with West Virginia who has already defeated South Florida and Rutgers pretty easily and should be 4-0 heading into the game with the Blue Raiders, if both of these teams are at an undefeated mark in the Big East at that point, look for it to draw some big national attention and two top 25 ranked teams. National attention is what the MTSU program needs to continue building, Hickerson has done a great job thus far but you can never be big enough, "When I came here MTSU was on the rise, Coach Stockstill had laid the pieces for a tremendous program and gave me the keys to it in the form of Dwight Dasher, we had a decent season that year, won a bowl game, and sent those seniors out in style, but more importantly what those seniors did, was continue growing this program to a national level, our move to the Big East grew us a little more, and every time we go out on a Saturday, or Thursday, and play a game, more importantly win a game, we grow even more, we never look to stop growing, we want this name out everywhere, to every single recruit in the country, from a 1 star kicker in Anchorage, Alaska to a 5 star running back in Odessa, Texas... we want every single player in the country to want me or another coach on this staff calling them and asking them if they are interested in coming to play ball in Murfreesboro, TN," said Hickerson. If the Blue Raiders could sandwich two wins in between these two bye weeks before heading to Morgantown, that would be a tremendous step in that direction. MTSU has played West Virginia very well over these past 4 years, better than the casual fan would guess, so let's look a little further down the line just for the journalist's sake, thats what we do anyway, right? The Blue Raiders walk out of Morgantown with a victory and are 4-0 in Big East play, then have South Florida and Louisville at home, play up to your capability once again, in your own house, and you are 6-0 with a huge matchup at Heinz Field with the Pittsburgh Panthers and long time rival of Hickerson, Coach Macc, who will be coming off a bye and will be well prepared for the Blue Raiders, Coach Macc took the loss to MTSU personally in his first year as Pitt head coach and has not let history repeat itself since, "For a school to come into the league in its first year, and beat a tradition rich program like this, I took it personally, and I have not let it happen since, and we do not plan on letting it happen again, said Macc in regards to the first year beatdown received by the Blue Raiders. I am just saying, there is a possibility there could be a Big East championship game this year, in the form of MTSU at Pittsburgh at Heinz Field, has a good ring to it doesnt it? If both teams take care of business like they should, if they come out and perform each week, avoid injuries, and any off the field problems, the two will meet then, in the last conference game of the season for each, with a hint of Conference Championship in the air.

Oregon beats Stanford big as QB Bryan Bennett finally shows off his arm. Recap coming tomorrow...

Oregon 52
Stanford 24

RB Lache Seamonster 31 Carries, 208 Yards, 4 TD's
QB Bryan Bennett 20-27, 352 yards, 3 TD's

And we inch closer towards Arizona and Washington...

i didnt ignore what u guys were saying yesterday.. im over it.. its one game.. i just got to struggle thru this season.... i have 2 more important games.. one this week and the the big xii championship.. have to have wins in those 2 games..idc about the title ne more i care more about staying in the top 10..

i'm interested to see what happens in this Mizz Ok St game. THis could be big for AX and get him back on track. The way Ok St has been handing the CPU losses we need him to stumble! lol

Ok folks, I'm bored as hell in class, we need some talk going on

i wonder when they are gna get there game in. and has anyone else noticed that ax's brother (South Carolina) hasn't played his last two weeks?

He hasnt plyed? That explains all the restarts then, no point in being in dynasty if you aren't going to play....

I agree, i don't know whats goin on with that. He would get upset if his games get simmed, but he hasn't played in like a week almost. This quietness goes to show how much Ax contributes to this OD. When he's down it seems like a ghost town around here. I hate it.

And I fucking blame FIFA11.

I will chirp you for playing soccer but, I won't chirp you because I know how sick that game is.

Sea of TD's

Seamonster & Bennett Power Oregon in win over Stanford

Eugene, OR - Clearly Lache Seamonster is garnering the attention of defenses around the country. Stanford routinely filled the box with 8 to 9 defenders to try and stop the Little Monster that could, with no success. Seamonster rushed for 207 yards and 4 TD's on 31 carries and could not be stopped once again. He has now rushed for an astonishing 959 Yards, on 124 carries with 15 TD's.

However, there was another coming out party of sorts. Oregon QB Bryan Bennett who has been in an early season slump, broke out in a big way throwing for 362 yards and 3 TD's. If Oregon's passing attack can get back on track, and couple that with the nations #1 rushing offense, the Ducks look in prime position to challenge for a national title. With big games still ahead with Arizona and Washington, could be a great season for the Ducks.

Final Score

Oregon - 52
Stanford - 24

so the majority of you are friends in real life right?

no lol.... i dont think any of us know anybody else in real life with the exception of mydas and ax, and then buc and coke are brother in laws i believe?

lol oh...i guess youve just all been together for many ncaa seasons

so are we going to get an advance in tonight? i have a bye next week, but i still wanna get this thing moving. Im looking forward to playing Arizona and Washington already...

Ax when are you getting your game in with Coke?

there will definitely be an advance tonight, if i have anything to say about it, there will be two...lol

i know last night cokan said 1230 worked for him, dunno if ax was good with that or not..

i need two advances tonight!

will i get two advances on it tonight? i doubt it. but damn i can dream right?

so looking at the stats...Gator you held Seamonster to 89 rushing yards. This was before he had an identity. I wonder if we met again, if youd be able to hold the Monster to 89 again

I would like to think I would...

however, a big part of me holding him to that probably was the fact you had to come back in the second half..

well i pretty much abandoned the run when you jumped out to a 14-3 lead. i know youd like revenge...do you wanna schedule to play again next year? in all fairness...that was your game...you won that...i caught some lucky breaks.

yes that is fine, if ax can manage that, i would love to finish out a home and home agsint you and gruden....

MTSU at Oregon, and Washington at MTSU

this time you come to OREGON!

i said MTSU AT Oregon, easy killer... i will be breaking in a new quarterback next year lol
