A smart NFL team could pick up quite a few playmakers from Iowa in the later rounds, but nah, entirely too white.

It's a damn shame too. Easley and Gervase should be in the NFL as should Hesse and Matt Nelson (I believe the other Nelson is a JR).

Nice game from Iowa defense as usual. Stanley played great as did Easley! Going out with a bang. That was Gervase's 4th INT of the year!

Watching LSU-UCF now, that Burrow guy is pretty good. I doubt UCF comes back in this one. I tuned out of the Penn State game, watching the Kentucky run-around black quarterback was making me nauseous.

LSU punt returner showed tremendous athleticism falling during the punt return there.

I have been watching the CFU - LSU game for about 30 minutes and there have been three awful drops by black receivers that should have all been easy touchdowns. Just incredible.

Huskies getting blown out which is disappointing. Browning has been an enigma this year - very inconsistent and seemed to hard to try and run around rather than be a pocket QB and execute the offense. The Huskies are stocked at QB with UGA transfer Jacob Eason the most likely to get the starting job in 2019.

I'm glad Georgia gave Eason the job and didn't put Fields in. Fields has a pea brain and he's a thug piece of ghetto ****.

Have a few minutes to post. Thanks 22 for heads up about Nevada walk on turned scholarship WR and hero of bowl win Ben Putman. I missed that game entirely.

I was pleased with every outcome yesterday. Really. I know some here were disappointed but not me.

Before that what a stirring win by Northwestern. LBs Fisher (first round pick in 2021), Gallagher and Bergin came up huge in the second half. My guess is their terrific HC Fitzgerald stays. He has an easy going personality and his players love him. Why head to the cold ******* world of the NFL?

Then another CF favorite comes up big to beat an SEC team that was billed as having the best defense in the country. In fact Iowa I believe gained negative yardage on the ground. Truly a matchup of great defensive teams it lived up to the billing as Iowa played great D despite MISS ST QB Fitzgerald running wild. Of course see above WR Nick Easley saved his best game ever for last and S Jake Gervase made several impact plays including the final pass break up. Iowa's big boy D line was dominant all day long.

Hard fought battle and I was glad to see that MISS ST didn't resort to dirty play--see LSU-UCF for that.

Too bad Michigan State ( played New Years Eve) couldn't make it a trifecta of white oriented Big Ten defenses winning. The Spartans did manage to stall one of those high flying caste oriented offenses in Oregon holding them to a measly 7 points but hell their offense needs to be totally revamped. NFL draft hopeful see above DE Kenny Willikes broke his ankle. Blessing in disguise since it might force him to come back for his senior season. Then by 2020 he could be a first round draft pick?

But you see the tre3nd? White oriented Big Ten defenses knocking the stuffing out of teams. None of those fruitcake teams who put up 50 plus points in games all season long are pulling that crap on defenses like Iowa, Michigan State and Northwestern.

Speaking of injuries to key white draft hopefuls (they keep piling up like crazy) QB Trace McSorley might have a broken foot. That sucks. He probably won't be able to run at the combine. Even though I can't stand KY the fact that Penn State continues to drift further into caste land, I for one am glad they lost just to teach that damn coach going full hog caste isn't the answer. Not that he will ever learn.

Also I am in the minority here and as much as I despise LSU, UCF is just another mainly caste oriented team give or take player here and there. They play in that American conference where typical scores are 64-59. More pansy than the Big 12 which is saying something. No thank you. Good riddance I don't want to hear about UCF anymore. LSU outgained them by over 300 yards. Both teams had players ejected. One black punk move after another. A total disgrace. LSU was already without half their defense because that is the one school draft experts drool over every year even though many of the LSU draftees turn out to be disappointments. QB Joe Burrow all of a sudden played like a first round draft pick. A lot to like. Extremely mobile and smooth as butter. Look for his stock to sky rocket next season. Pity he plays for caste central LSU. Terrific looking athlete.

As usual I was rooting for Ohio State ( Big Ten) because they have two young NFL type white linebackers I like a lot. With Urban gone expect Ohio State to be less caste next season. Washington featured zero white WRs like Ohio State but their MLB ( the Burr) was sensational yesterday and should be a solid draft pick. I know many here don't like Ohio State but Washington was barely less caste overall.

Uga almost got killed by Beavo before the Texas- Georgia game. That was wild and could have been a disaster. Whose bright idea was it to have the bulldog meet Beavo, a longhorn steer? Why not throw in Ralphie the Colorado buffalo and the Auburn war eagle and everyone can have a good old time. Good grief. As it was some woman got wiped out. Thankfully no one was seriously injured so it was sort of funny but don't try that again. Again both of these teams are around the same level of caste heavy ( translate --awful) but I hate Georgia and too many were talking them up to be in the final four. Does Georgia have one white defender on their roster? That Texas QB Ehlinger is one tough dude. With multi stud Taysom Hill like Jake Smith coming in next season if they plug him right in Texas might become a team to root for which I haven't been able to do since star WR Jordan Shipley left quite a long time ago.

All in all in a general sense I think things worked out well the past couple of days.

The icing on the cake though will be if dreaded Alabama goes down to Clemson. Most believe the two QBs will be the first picks in the NFL draft. Tua in 2020 and Trevor Lawrence, who is being compared to Peyton Manning, in 2021.

#FCS Championship Game
Powerhouse (14 - 0) North Dakota State Bison leading Eastern Washington 31 - 17 end 3rd qtr. ....Watched entire 1st Half; Easton Stick 2 TD's rushing. 2nd Half just started had briefly turned channel to Army primadonna HS All Star Bowl....then missed RB Sam McPherson score on a 75 yard TD Run "Live" :mad:

NDSU Safety Robbie Grimsley is an FCS All American....the other starting Safety James Hendricks just had INT ....will be leader of Defense next season

EWU Calin Criner built like Corner Back at 5'-10" 185...but of course is a Safety..JUST had INT...They miss their starting QB Gage Gubrud

TRUE Shadowlight!
QB Joe Burrow had 394 yards passing vs. UCF..."TOUGH as NAILS"...takes blindside Shot from 300lb D-Tackle Joey Conner then gets BS Taunt from #44....Bounces Back to Throw 4 TD Passes!! (should have been 5 but dropped). Without Burrow LSU does not sniff a 10 Win season! Was only in BR a few months to learn system after Transferring from Ohio St. Next year should be Break out player!

I thought NDSU won the FCS championship a few weeks ago lol! Thanks for the reminder. I am interested to see what happens with Easton Stick during the draft process - athletic QB who could become an RB or DB. McPherson also has next level ability.

I am sweating out the fact I may not get home in time to see the beginning of the big game tonight.

A few minor thoughts. First ESPN is once again doing multiple telecasts but the bummer is there won't be those free flowing guy/girl groups except maybe on the SEC network which I don't get. I remember a drunk Bill Walton trying to make a move on one of the chicks one year.

They will have the MNF trio along with Todd McShay ( always a delight ha) on ESPN NEWS but I will likely stick with the regular telecast.

Since I am a walking jinx why should I predict that Clemson will win? I am worried though. So I will predict Alabama 38-24.

I cannot even put it into words how bad I want Alabama to lose.

Obviously I hope WR Hunter Renfrow and safeties Tanner Muse and even back up Nolan Turner come up big and impress NFL scouts.

Last year Clemson got run over by Alabama. I expect a better contest this go around. For anti caste purposes this "Alabama thing" has to end and hopefully it does tonight.

I respect Alabama. They play tough football. I also DETEST THEM.

Muse came back in for a play near the goal line but then back to the bench best I can tell

Looks like they're still using Muse sparingly as an in the box Safety/LB. Let's hope he can rebound with a big play.

Tua with 2ints! Lawrence has lead Clemson to 28-16 on other hand.
