look at some of the shit we have to put up with.

BCS snub, i can live with that.

Harrell not getting invited to Heisman Ceremony, are you fucking kidding me?

college football is a popularity contest, and we are the new kid who dresses differently.

you'd be defensive about everything too if you supported a school that had to put up with this shit. yall may be blowing cock now, but at least you have the comfort of knowing that if you ever get good again, you wont be fucked around....because you're cut from the same mold as old school college football which makes you one of the (semi) popular kids.

If i were Graham i would throw for 700 yards against Ole Miss and have FUCK ESPN written on my forearm.

[Thethreeyardout]

I agree.

The BCS and ESPN and x box killing this sport that I love.

I really feel like this year, from a Longhorn point of view, was unexpected success followed by the feeling that you wasted a lot of time in a rigged system.

[BYU Born (roveram)]

I always thought 4 guys got the invite.

Your QB got fucked.

[Sooner Born]

No kidding, Rover. Harrell and probably Crabtree at least deserved an invite. That would cost, what, an extra $3k/person. Someone could easily pony that up.

And I agree with 3+, the general commercialization is making a mockery of CFB.

[sammy]

Agreed. Harrell AND Crabs should have been invited.

[dag]

people rag on harrell and how his game will equate to the pros. i think he'll get a better shot than tebow.

[surf]

didn't they used to invite 5? i never really paid attention to the heisman presentation cause i'd rather watch a game instead of a dumb award ceremony

[AggieJen02]

wow...harrell didn't get an invite? who did they invite besides bradford and mccoy?

[houstontexan]

a) the system's been fucked for a while. its not supposed to be the best player on a top 5 team. its for the most outstanding player in college football. its amazing 1) that players is ALWAYS a QB, TB, WR (i know...most measurables, but give me a fucking break), 2) way way too often they're not great, just a decent player on a GREAT team (jason white)

b) crabtree's better than harrell. if anyone should be pissed off, its crabtree

[BQ_90]

Crabtree is the best player in the country right now. Why this trophy has been hijacked and given out to damn near only QBs is bullshit. Also he'd be stupid to stay. He's got to be a top 3 pick easy.

[houstontexan]

its funny to listen to them talk about harrell's stats, though he's a pretty good QB....what are we going to do, start putting kingsbury and sonny cumbie in the heisman mix b/c of their stats?

agree....right now, crabtree is the best college football player in the country and i wouldn't put orakpo too far behind.

[BYU Born (roveram)]

I'm with you on Crabtree being a bad mother fucker. The fucking guy can ball.

[note that I got my quota of curse words in for the day]

[Thethreeyardout]

Another vote for Crabtree.

Colt is our best offensive player....we don't have a running back...it is just that guy doing everything.

Orakpo is our best football player and the leader of that team.

He scares the fucking piss out of the freshmen when they get here....we will miss that.

dude, i know what you're saying here, and you're exactly right...stats alone cant get you an award like the Heisman.

but Cumbie and Kingsbury didnt have their team in the Top 7 for most of the year and in the thick of the national championship race until the 2nd to last week. and they didnt win 11 games.

and neither of them had stats anywhere NEAR as impressive as Graham's.

he deserves to be there as much as anyone. i feel bad for the guy

[Techsan]

Doc, ht HATES Tech with every fiber of his being, don't pay attention to his trolls.

[sammy]

2 things: ht is composed of 3(4?) posters. at least 1 of which is a big tech sympathizer, even went as far as picking Tech to win the conference before the season started. Im sure one(more than one?) of the others isnt.

next, outside of being a tech alum, how in the fuck can you possibly 'feel bad' for harrell? He personifies dewsh bag with every breath he takes. I understand being upset he got snubbed, bc its really a snub at your university, but i dont think many(aggies or not) would feel bad for that dewsh rocket if his uncle banged his mother while beheading his dog in front of him.

Ht picked Tech to win the conference because it was going to help him deal with the emotional roller coaster he would go on if Tech actually happened to win the conference. He didn't pick them because he likes Tech or actually thought they were the best team. Don't know why what team he picked on a message board would have that much of an effect on him, that is for him and his therapist to figure out.

I'm not a huge Harrell fan myself, but I’m sure if he were in an Aggie or Horn uniform, the respective parties would feel completely different about him. It is cool when McGee talks shit on the field, or Tellus runs his trap, but that comes with the (enter team color here) goggles that we all wear. The snub at the university is the worst part of it. Name one other BCS school that would get the same treatment. A QB with those stats, 11-1, and top 10 in the country from any other school, would at least get an invite.

[Lazlo Hollyfeld]

i agree. crabs and harrell got assblasted.

[Doc]

Harrell may act like a child on the field sometimes, but its no different than the things Techsan listed. the shit that Japorkie pulls, Tellus, that dewsh that nearly killed Harrell on the late hit, the dipshit that celebrated stopping the OU running back for no gain when the score was 77-0, the lasso dance, the taunting of Sergio Kindle...all the things are what happen when kids let their emotions get to them. it just irks you guys more b/c Harrell plays for Tech and he is 3-0 against you.

what you DONT see is all the class that he shows with the media, the amount of time he gives back to the community, and the things he does with his church in lubbock. the people that KNOW him say he is a class act, through and through. I would be willing to bet that McGee is a class act as well, he's just had a rough go at it so his emotions get away from him sometimes.

And then there is flipping of the crowd.

[houstontexan]

my God.

i reasoned many times why i had tech taking the south and the big XII and yes, i thought some of it was the fact that eventually it'll work out but i also thought they'd be a great club.

that being said, my horn friends and i still laugh at the "to-do" tech fans make in public and hearing conversation about your "top 5 program" still makes people laugh out loud.

[mse1892sip]

I guess we can see by the voting why they weren't invited seems as if it would have been more embarassing than rewarding, and that's not a knock on those two.

[BohunkAg]

my horn friends and i

That explains so much.

[houstontexan]

enlighten me...

i suppose i'm actually a horn troll.

[Techsan]

Amazing that ht and his horn buddies are around so many Tech people that hearing them refer to Tech as a top 5 program is commonplace. I actually talk to a lot of my Tech friends and not once has any single one of them referred to Tech as a top 5 program EVER. I guess finding a post or two on Raiderpower equates to ht and his fellow horns overhearing Tech fans carry on in public about their top 5 program.

Apparently making up stuff to post online makes Emo feel a little bit better about himself.

jarvorskie and martellus did what? lane guaranteed a win and dogstomped ut...martellus did a horns down sign as a joke with roy williams....yeah, terrible.

the "late hit" that wasn't flagged? sounds vicious. almost killed, though, right?

harrell's antics are bushleague and the mocking of an injured ref finally put it over the top.

i'll agree on the taunting of sergio but that doesn't compare at all with someone sprinting to the ref every time he's hit and unstrapping begging for a call. kid has some serious growing up to do and won't last long in the league if he's going to cry and whine like a bitch any time someone actually hits him.

[RaginKajun]

no, lane guaranteed a win and got dogstomped in lubbock....which may or may not be where he openly wept.
