Stanford vs. Oklahoma State 2012 Fiesta Bowl Live Thread

In what may be one of the most anticipated games of the 2011-2012 Bowl season, the Stanford Cardinal, and quarterback Andrew Luck, take on the Oklahoma State Cowboys tonight in the Tostitos Fiesta Bowl. This game should be the final collegiate performance for Luck, the presumed top pick in the April NFL draft.

But, don't expect him to have an easy game. Oklahoma State is trying to make an argument that they should have made the BCS National Championship game, rather than a rematch between LSU Tigers and Alabama Crimson Tide. With a solid win here, and an LSU loss to Alabama, there's a possibility that the Cowboys could find themselves atop the AP Poll, and sharing the National Championship with Alabama.

Should be another very entertaining game tonight.

Enjoy!

sharing a championship lol

ahh playoffs would make too much sense, we don’t want that

how dare you clog this site with fact's !!!! lol

at least with playoffs, we would probably see more quality play and no layoff time to get guys lazy and hurt in the bowl games.

I-AA playoffs are always exciting
Yeah they are. Awesome stuff
I will watch this game tonight because this will probably be the last game of Luck's that I will care about watching
agree, most likely I hope he will suck cause we wont get him and Indy will. Then I have hear about it from the inlaws
Until we play Indy next year
playoffs, playoffs are you kidding me ? Playoffs
LOL how foolish... You don't have the next play done up yet?

haha spiking the ball with 2 seconds left… Foolish losers

what a turrible way to end a game
lol I just caught the Barkley reference

Didn’t see the “u” at first

Back in the wretched hive of scum and villainy that is Jacksonville
ahhhhhhh , such a wonderful world of debauchery up there.
I still can't believe how many of my friends

Go to the strip clubs. Jville is the STD and AIDS capital of America

Ben Volin- Chad Henne wants to return to Miami but competing for starting job is #1 goal
Oh yeah! Matt Millen!
He's not a bad commentator
Disagree
OK... nevermind... LOL
I like Matt Millen

I give him credit for working for ESPN and NFL Network after all media crushed him for years while in Detroit

wtf just happend
bad move by Luck there
he just got another chance lol
Omar Kelly is on twitter pimping Weeden

even though Weeden is almost 30.

People keep making a big deal about Brandon Weeden’s age. Oklahoma State’s QB will be 28 when the NFL season starts in 2012. Each quarterback is given about 4 years to establish himself, proving he’s got it or doesn’t. Then the franchise makes a HUGE investment or moves on. By that time Weeden will be 32. That gives a franchise at least three more years of good play. I’m good with 7 years from a QB.

LOL

Not saying he's not a good QB prospect

But I don’t want to be looking for another QB in 7 years.

we would have to trade out the gatoraide with geritol, lol
Stanford runs the Tony Sparano offense

just with a much better QB.

Am I the only one hoping Luck plays like crap tonight in the hopes his draft stock might somehow drop?
lol, you might be on to something there.

luck for suck, luck for suck … you see what I did there!

I really don't think it's out of the realm of possibility that RG III gets picked first

either if Indy likes him more, or if Luck informs them he wants to start immediately which would thwart Indy’s plans if Manning is healthy. Unless they release him which I’m not sure about

With the Polians gone, Indy is really an unknown factor now
luck good play bad and still go number 1
Oh my!!!

Did you see that lack of arm strength on that throw?

Yes. The Colts fans are going to be very happy with him.
I have a feeling this game is going to end with me being pissed
Why? You have no rooting interest!
He might have some chips riding on it
Nah not the Duke.
Because we deserve Luck, not Indy

they deserve to rot!

Deserves got nothing to do with it.
LOL... well let's hope Indy "misfires"
Who would want a guy like that, damn he sucks
What's really sad is that Matt Moore can make those kinds of passes too

except he can’t throw short passes. What’s up with that?

Poor touch and body mechanics
Wouldn't the shorter passes be easier to throw?
It's all relative
Not neccesarily

Shorter passes require good touch, timing and anticipation. QB’s with big arms often struggle with West Coast principled style passing (see Joe Flacco).

How's Joe doing this year?

Gonna be a leader or a liability?

Liabilty

As you know, the NFL is a QB-driven passing league. The nuts and bolts of the Ravens offense are Ray Rice and Anquan Boldin. If the passing game is to be a factor in the playoffs, Flacco is going to have to make 3 to 4 plays with his arm. I have some questions about his abilty to that at this time.

Even still, considering the mediocrity of the AFC

It wouldn’t surprise me to see the Ravens cruise to the Super Bowl.

They have a legit chance before the get killed by GB.
I have had this conversation with friends

And, true the AFC is wide open. Pats D sucks, Pitts banged up, Houston has a rookie QB, ditto Cincy, and Denver has no QB. Pray for us Ravens, please.

Luck

Made a bad read on that pick.

Stanford is doing an excellent job with playcalling
Any sign of Bacon at this game?

Also, were they handing out sleeping pills at OSU’s hotel prior to this game?

No hes back in Lucks room wearing just a ............
I'm sorry gentleman

This is over my head:)

Your better off not knowing.
Waiting for an enigma
How long has Derek Fisher been coaching Stanford?
got the job during the lockout
They do a like

Spitting images of each other.

Did you know that the longest run the Dolphins gave up all year was 24 yards?
We do have a great run defense.
That was the best in the NFL
We now have a ball game...

It would be nice if Blackmon was available when we draft.

this game just got interesting
lol. Justin Blackmon is ridiculous

His speed looks perfectly fine to me.

Justin Blackmon... welcome to Cleveland!
Yep

Blackmon is killing. Can you say top 5 pick.

He's awesome

I wonder if Cleveland will opt for him over Richardson.

Neal Driscoll on twitter just said he thinks the Rams will take him

They will take Kalil IMO.

The Rams will take Blackmon?

I could see that.

Kalil, Martin and Reiff are all ridiculous tackle prospects

Claiborne is a phenomenal corner, but I wonder if he’ll drop to Tampa.

theoretically

TB, Washington, Minnesota, and Carolina could all take O-linemen in the first round. Jacksonville could as well. Only Cleveland won’t, but they could take Blackmon. It is possible that Griffin could fall to us.

Yeah, though I don't trust Washington at all in this draft
I don't either
Tampa desperately needs a corner, so I think they'll go in that direction

Jax needs offense in the worst way, but they could take Coples if Blackmon is off the board.

So it's possible that the top QB and top OT prospects could be gone by 9

and the top CB and top WR. That sucks.

Alshon Jeffery

say it with me duke…

I'm driving the Brian Quick bandwagon

I have to vote for him.

lol

Then just be happy with the idea of jeffrey

Plus I'd rather have a pass rusher if we can't draft a QB
no toys for our next guy?

youre no fun

Here's my draft (non-QB)

1. Mercilus
2. Irvin
3. RT
4. Quick
5. I don’t care after this.

I would LOVE to get Quick later in the draft

You can never have too many awesome wideouts

He would be a good red zone threat

and we might actually connect on a few fades. He could register a 38" vertical or more.

And honestly

I know it was just one year (his first) and he made a big jump from playing at ACU but…

I was pretty underwhelmed with Gates. He went a lot farther than most thought and its starting to seem with good reason

i know its early, but still.

Quick is a beast
Just wait until my fanpost around draft time... LOL
Good question

RG III, Richardson and then Blackmon in Cleveland, imo.

hey guys

Go stanford! Hopefully blackmon’s stock falls so that jags or rans are confident enough to trade down to us for him.

Hello Anish
hows it going duke
Not too bad... enjoy the trip?
yup

I’m in atlanta right now, heading back home tommorrow.

Welcome to the Tostitos Fiesta Bowl party
This party sucks. Theres no beer.
Ha!

Don’t sweat it. I’m drinking limeade. Much better for you.

Sorry buddy, too young
Whats up

Good luck in the playoffs!

Thanks!

The window is wide open and closing fast do to the age of Ray Lewis and Ed Reed. Gatta win it now.

Welcome kiddo. I hope you have learned your lesson and are staying away from GGN!
Why, what happened? Did GGN ... ... ...touch him?
No the same mod that I had a run it with asked him if his name was pronounced anus.

Really classy thing to say to a kid!

Blow Namath asked him that?
hey uh- neesh, lol, I cant beleive you had to sound it out to the jests idiots

and thanks for bringing the cold back with you , lol

Lol, thanks

But whatever, the past is the past

you got booted from there too??!?!?

WELCOME TO THE CLUB!

lol

No just ran in to an A-hole.
ah

well all jets fans are afterall

Nah

I wasnt trying to troll, so john b didnt ban me

oh ok

lol john b…..I got on one their fans for talking shit about a poster here. John B told me to “cool it” and said the poster dolphin fans bring it on themselves and I just went nuts

lol

Lol, kinda reminds me of a dictatorship
Can I still be pissed about it?
what happened?
Bro Namath asked him if his name was pronouced anus.
Geez

I know that guy and he can go f*** himself

way to try to pick a fight with a kid in high school bro

what a douche

What do you expect from a guy whose hero drunkenly hit on a sideline reporter?
Not to mention the fact that he our probably the best player in the history of the franchise
sad isnt it?

and he was TERRIBLE

i cant believe they put him in the hall

Rumor has it Namath's gonorrhea made the trip to Canton with him
LOL

most definitely

New york bias
Sure

But still, forget and forgive right?

Except for Jets fans. Those are the rules.
Whats up tex

I try to avoid gangrene.

This Cardinal secondary is getting ripped to shreds
Yes they are

And Blackmon hasn’t even gotten warmed up yet.

Hey fellas
and no im not watching

I just cant bear it….

lol (but srsly)

Why aren't you in Glendale, Bacon?
Had to work

lol

that and I realy didnt want to hang myself from the rafters after the game was over

We know what your up to Bacon.
there is a pool of liquid at his feet and it ain't tears!
tmi?
maybe , lol
no maybes about it

lol

but since alpha isn't here , I had to go there , lol
lol

fair enough

lol
We know that your waiting in his hotel room wearing only a ..........
Come on now Tex

you know im totally naked

Yes but I assumed you were at least playing it safe so.............
this is the only qb prospect Ill ever truly love

“Safe” is not a word found in this scenario’s dictionary

Wrap that rascal I tell ya
HE MUST BE FREE!!!

wait, what are we talking about again?

Um.......................
WELL?
You doing to Luck what our fans wanted to do to Henne.
Oh well in that case

LET IT BE FREEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!!

lol

Your parents are going to be so upset when you show up on TMZ.
Jokes on you

my parents dont watch tmz….

But their friends do. Wait, your parents and their friends to have television? Right?
lol yes but my parents have almost 20 years on you
Funny so do mine. Well 21.
Blackmond

This dude is a stud. Reminds me of Megatron. On a side note lets fire Ireland and go get Polian.

I cannot wait to see how many fanposts go up mentioning that very scenario
Polian?

of course itll happen

My thought

The way I see it is if we have any shred of hope for Luck we would need Polian. His brother works for Stanford and they might be able to convince him to tell the Colts that he will not sit on the bench behind Manning. A man can dream cant he?

You don't want Bill Polian

The guy’s a dinosaur and one step from retirement.

totally agree

PASS

Does Blackmon remind anyone of Dwayne Bowe?
I can see it

Blackmons a monster

Blackmon reminds me of a better, smarter Dez Bryant
as long as his mom's not a ho
Dez is an idiot.
Interesting comp

I can see that too!

thats what Ive always thought

hes gonna be better thats for sure

Blackmon's nasty, but don't overlook Alshon Jeffery. That hail mary catch he made was flat-out insane
Jeffrey is my new favorite target

even better if its with the ninth pick…

We can get a real wideout this time

I saw that catch live

He’s a big kid. What his 40 time? Does it matter with his size?

Probably a 4.5 guy. His hands are flawless, and his ball skills are as good as you'll find in a prospect
hes totally worthy of a top ten pick
So let's say we double up on WRs in the draft (Jeffery and Quick)

should we trade Marshall?

if we got more than we paid then yes

if not no and hello dirtiest wr corp in football

Marshall, Jeffrey, Bess, Hartline and Quick (and maybe still gates) would be AMAZEBALLS

Meh... we could do without Hartline

if Quick worked out

Fine with me

I like him but my attachment isnt deep

Theres only a dozen or so players Id be upset to part with (Marshall being one)

Jeffery and Marshall would be so unfair

Matt Moore could throw the ball with his ass at that point and probably still find one of those two receivers.

and Moore could throw the ball like that

and it will still be better than any Henne pass.

LOL HENNE

remember that time when most of our funs wanted to suck his c***?

good times….good times

Wait, we had fans that wanted to have oral sex with our QB? WTF?
Like ... a sex boat scandal?
Well it is Miami and we have a lot more boats then Minn..
Lol
Like … a sex boat scandal?

Way too funny.

yuck !!! Thats why were bringing in Tebow, to stop all that
LOL... on a roll today
Jesus Christ Superstar 2.0

He’s like the Terminator, but instead of bullets, he shoots sunshine and advent calendars.

this surprises you.....

WHY?!?!?!?

Dude, my gf wants to have oral sex with mark sanchez

It’s a little annoying (well maybe a lot annoying, lol)

LOL
as long as she's having it with you, who cares who she is thinking about , lol
Lol
You have NOTHING to worry about ... unless she's under the age of 10

If so, you definitely have a problem

Shes 15, same
As me
Woah, how did that happen
SHES THE SAME AS YOU!??!?!

thats odd

Same age

Wait, i think I’m missing something here

same.....gender?

lol

No

not homophobic, but I would never go there

HOMOPHOBE!!!

lol

and why would you? Girls are FANTASTIC lol

Indeed
Bacon use to say that and then a certain Andrew Luck came along.
lol

im just lucksexual is all

Oh ok.
maybe it's all those pubes on lucks chin?
Ladies and gentleman I give you daytonadolfan

who will be playing the part of Alpha this evening.

Lol, him, nicky and beave are strangely absent
I could never aspire to reach his level

just trying to fill the void… wait that didn’t sound right..

You want to fill Alphas void?
TEE HEE

its like im 12 again

disregard my remark above , lol
Lol
TIME TO MOVE ON

thats a deal breaker right there

Meh

I can deal with it, lol

You are a stronger man than I
Just more apathetic about things like this
EXACTLY

imagine that: suddenly the oline isnt a problem when they cant blitz and only rush 4 because how stupid scary our wideouts would be

but who wants to catch a ball that just came out of someones ass?
Alshon Jeffery and Brandon Marshall

… and Bacon.

If its from Andrew Luck...

COUNT ME IN!!

If you trade Brandon Marshall

Can we have him Baltimore?

can we have joe flacco?
also you have to trade gms with us

you can have the ginger….give us ozzie

Ha!

Only if we trade up to get RGIII. I wouldn’t trade Ozzie for 100 Jeff Ireland’s.

Yep. He'll make some noise

And if there are no quarterbacks available at No.9, maybe we let it ride with a bad-ass receiver.

If the price is right (first-round pick)
Jesse Palmer was REALLY good in the film "Transformers"
Umm, what?
He looks just like that Josh Duhamel idiot

Try to keep up, Anish!

way to ruin the joke anish

lol

Sorry

Honestly had no idea what he was talking about

lol Im just messin
Lol

I’ll try

here's the twins so far

Mike Tomlin = Omar Epps
Jason Taylor = Shemar Moore
Stanford’s coach = Derek Fisher
Kirk Cousins = Dr. Brady Barr (just for you Bacon)

Man you're good with the comps
Josh Duhamel = Jesse Palmer
yes... forgot that one

My brother says Marc Bulger = Brad Paisley, but I just don’t see it.

LOL

thanks duke

speaking of which I watched an episode of the simpsons today that had Colm Meaney (aka Miles O’Brien) as a guest voice of an irishmen….IT WAS AWESOME

LOL... did you really think you needed to tell me who Colm Meaney was?
LOL

I wasnt sure

sorry for thinking my trekkieness is greater than yours

A friend and I were arguing over who the hottest chick ever on ST was

and I mentioned Ashley Judd from the two episodes she was on. LOL

We agreed on 7 of 9.

I also saw Colm Meaney in some crazy movie called:

The Englishman who went up a hill, but came down a mountain.

LOL

i bets its amazing

lol I always had a crush on Jadzia myself
Dr. Pulaski? LOL
LOL

in her dreams

for tng its EASILY Deanna

Crusher had her moments, but it's probably Deanna

that chick Geordi had the hots for wasn’t bad either.

lol also her

wesley ruined Dr. Crusher lol

I heard someone somewhere say once

that Wesley Crusher was the Jar Jar Binks of ST. LOL

LMAO

thats so true

Neal Driscoll has us drafting Jeffrey in the 1st and Weeden in the 2nd...

thoughts?

YES PLEASE

then:

I can jive with that

Weeden’s only problem is age, and Jeffery is a man (he’s 40!).

I am also interested in Riley Reiff, Jonathan Martin or David DeCastro if we want to make the offensive line ridiculous.

Whats up phin nation?

I’ve watched every bowl game that has showcased a possible qb for next year (Griffin, Cousins, Landry) and I got to tell you other than Luck this guy Weeden has been the most impressive…. so far. How would you feel if we ended up trading down a few times and then end up taking Weeden in the bottom of the 1st or top of 2nd?

Not sure I want a QB thats nearly as old as me.
Thats impossible
oh damn , he went there , lol
Weeden is only 28, and he plays a position where guys can remain at well into their 40s.
i thought Jhonny U gave up the game Tex
LOL

ill pass on Chris Weinke the second thanks

Much better qb than weinkle though
Weeden is about 50 times as good as Chris Weinke
Well hes talented

but hes a short term investment

wheres nicky?

I want to laugh vigorously at him when he loses it after I nitpick RG3

Sorry dude, I'm on nickys side for this
I dont know

I think Nicks planning to propose soon

The same can be said for you and luck
SO!??

lol

LOL So defensive ever since he turned you down.
HE DIDNT TURN ME DOWN

he just needs some time to think is all

Really I heard he had been seen around town lately with a diminutive Italian that goes by Nick.
That bastard....
Like you did not already know that.
i probably did....
No comment
Forgot about this game tonight

How’s Luck playing? Stats look pretty good besides that 1 pick. Stanford’s running game has been big, which helps.

Luck's

Playing like a guy worthy of the 1st overall pick!

man I hate the colts

its just not fair

Me too

You would think the football have blessed the Colts enough already.

i know right?

uggh

is it nice to root for a good team?

Ive forgotten

It's wonderful

It is almost better than chicken!

Chicken is delicious.
Fried chicken
Baked

I’m older now. My doc’s paying attention.

sounds great

the dolphins chicken tastes strangely like what I imagine dog shit tastes like….

Vegetarian :/

Sorry

Thats cool. You have have yourself a good soy chicken patty.
that stuff is nasty
Well the black bean burgers are not bad.
No, not at all

They are quite good

Yeah I don't mind them. I dated this girl once that was vegan and I tried it for like a week.

I thought I was going to freaking starve to death.

Well, considering most indian food is vegetarian

I dont have a problem.

Yeah true. There is an Indian food place here that has a vegan buffet on Sundays.

It’s amazing.

I am likewise Indian. Choctaw to be exact.

Well, different kind of indian

But it still works

boring , sorry
my step brother is a vegan, I look at him know he will never enjoy life !! He may live longer , but untill you have a good steak you have never lived
mmmmmmmmmmmmmm steak !
Yes! A bone in ribeye cooked about mid rare with some ice cold Shiner Bock!
I believe his is religious based so its cool.
Yeah
See I know whats up. I respect that!
thats all good, I respect that
Religious reasons
I'm a Baptist... fried chicken is religious to us... LOL

You know you might be a Baptist if you wake up in the middle of the night craving fried chicken and interpret that as a call to preach.

So is Nascar and giant trucks but whos counting.
that's not necessarily Baptist

but the fried chicken is. LOL

Im a fan of the chicken but not NASCAR, I like greens though
I like NASCAR, but do not like greens... LOL
I like chicken and greens and despise Nascar.
Hush your mouth Duke
I'm not a big fan of cooked vegatables
Not all Baptist are Nascar fans but all Nascar fans are Baptist.
lol

fair enough

I don't know about all that... LOL
Im a big fan of the Later Day Dude
Well I am now ordained so.................
lol

thats southern hick

not baptist

Thin line.
some groups of baptists yes
Thats true. Some are way more extreme then others.
hey I had a huge truck, Z 71 with 9 inch lift, be nice Texy pooh
Are you a baptist?
Naw, Kinda alll the above
My mother was presbyterian, my father was Lurthern, I kid just go with the flow
I like the non-denom. approach.

Seems more accepting IMO. Not a fan of being over judgmental towards others and their religious choices.

LOL I dont know what that means.
Umm that sounds a bit strange

But I respect that

It was a joke...
Yeah

I know, just messing with you

I'm Methodist. I have been trying to figure out the Baptist for a VERY long time.
give up

lol

My ex was Baptist so yeah...............
theologically, it's pretty easy

practically, much more difficult

making elite throws
If that's true

I think Fintastic47’s head is going to explode LOL

Well he did throw an INT

and I’m sure the quality of OKST’s defense will make an appearance as well.

You're right Earl

Elite QB's never throw INT's - ever. Only average QB's at best do

He doesn't think Luck is good at all

even after tweets like this:

That beautiful throw Andrew Luck just made on the sideline, over the top of the defender after a pump fake is why NFL teams will sell their mothers to get Luck. I’d conservatively guess 20% of NFL QBs can make throw.

YET, he wants to resign Henne to a 3 year deal.

Stop Henne bashing, he is on the site and a fan of us
WHA?!!?
So Chad Henne KNOWS I hate him?

My life just got even better….

After everything said on this site

there is NO way Henne is a fan. LOL

what a moron

If I still thought we could get luck Id go crazy on him

Henne like monkeys also
What a piece of work Fintastic is

Claims Henne was better both past and present LOL

Luck is currently

14-17, 201 yards, 82.4%, 2TD’s 1INT

so everything henne never was?

sounds right

I don't know if you were reading his diatribes

About how Luck was going to bomb against Oklahoma St. and how Luck would never be more than an average QB in the NFL. It was all quite amusing to me.

I find it partcularly funny

That some people can be so biased about their love for certain players they actually convince themselves of absurdities which can only be explained as insanity

Yet he wants to resign Henne...

is there anything about Henne’s game that doesn’t scream average or below?

I think he'd actually take Henne over Luck

If he had an equal opportunity to take either straight-up. Buffonery lives in the minds of some people

how sad
When you say something that crazy

I can never really trust anything else he says going forward. Credibility crushed & pulverized, never to be rehabilitated.

because Henne just needs a new system

or a new OC or whatever else. Didn’t we cover that last off-season?

Yeah, pretty much
unreal

some people are just stupid/just wanna piss people off

Thats not going to be good for his health.
This Taylor kid

Is looking like Jim Brown tonight

This whole thread has been so inappropriate. lol

Well done, Daytona.

taking a bow, thanks, i try lol
Our new QB Mr. Tebow wont approve
Yaeh, with alpha absent too
Stanford just gave away 7 points
ok dudes , alpha better get here soon, cuz grandpa here needs to hit the rack, early to work in the a.m.

gonna watch the rest of this from under the covers, going to freezing tonight and the 20’s tomorrow night, brrrrrr , this is florida dammit !! have a great nite everyone, later.

I know I have to work in this crap tomorrow
it ought to be fun, and I bet every job tomorrow will be outside , lol later
Wow that is cold for Florida.
5 degrees tonight in Toronto

With -8 windchill. Sucks but it’s January. Been pretty good this winter so far.

See ya
Good night Dayton
The Wildcat even fails in college
That was an ugly play
All right see ya guys
Good night Anish
Luck is so accurate damn

Almost always on the money with his passes.

Blackmon is an absolute beast
Where will Blackmon get drafted at
2 by the rams if they dont trade
Should be Rams or Skins depending on the QBs FA period.
Check that.

He shouldn’t fall out of the top 3, he’d be a good fit in Minnesota too.

Yeah Minnesota needs Kalil, Blackmon or Claiborne
dont see him going to min but mabye
I should clarify....

Blackmon will be a GREAT fit on any team. Monster receiver with high character.

This has been a good game.
Yeah, except I hate turnstile defense, and OSU's defense is horrific

Bad run defenses make my skin crawl.

OSU is starting to show up on D
what a throw
Yeah, Luck's anticipation on that throw was ridiculous

Can’t hate.

What a gdamn stud Luck is

A scouts wet dream. Buys time with his feet, PERFECT footwork and accuracy all galore – even on the run. Terrific pro he will be I have no doubt

My skin is crawling too, but the high octane offense has grown on me. It's all about scoring more than the other team.
^especially in college (as Madden would say)
I'm thinking if we aren't able to get a QB, we should trade up for Blackmon if possible.

This kid makes some really quick moves to create separation. He looks like Bess and Hartline (their best traits) rolled into one.

If we trade up, it should be for a QB

but Blackmon is good

I'd be happy with Blackmon, Jeffery or Michael Floyd

All three of those guys are studs, IMO.

He is going to be taken in the same range as Griffin so if your going to do that Griffin has to be the pick.
I'm not so sure. Can't be sure what Ireland (or any GM) is thinking.

There is still too much that could happen between now and draft day with FA, combine #’s. We could (or any QB needy to team drafting ahead of us) pick up Flynn and then decide to acquire a WR early in the draft. I was really impressed with this kids moves. As much as I like Hartline and Bess, this guy would easily be better than both and open up our passing game for whoever the QB is.

Well Ireland's priority has to be QB or its going to be his head.
Can't trade up for a receiver.

If we can’t get our QB and Blackmon falls, he’s a great pick.

Luck made that whole drive happen

Stanford ran the ball most of the time, and Luck bailied them out 2 or 3 times on 3rd & Long. He did it with his feet on 1 play, did it scrambling out with a strike on the run, and the last on 3rd and 7. That’;s what elite QB’s do.

Yes. The Colts are going to be very happy with him.
He still looks like a douchebag

:-)

He may very well be but he will be good.
He'll be fine once he shaves that aberration of a beard.
Ha. I thought he did already?
If he played in the spread offense like Baylor's or Ok. St

His statistics would be off the charts. This Stanford power run-first offense keeps his numbers in check, and they’re still awesome.

Just wait until Luck has actual weapons at WR to work with

It’s gonna be fun.

Posted a fanshot about this a few minutes ago....

I “almost” think they might trade out of the pick.

It's possible
Its also possible that Nicky will wake up one morning, roll over and see a female there but not likely.
The Colts? I think the reason they fired the Polians was because he's tied to Peyton Manning
Make no mistake, the douchebag Colts are taking this guy

They laid down like jagoffs yesterday afternoon because they want this guy and will do anything to get him. Seriously, fuck the Colts. That team sickens me.

Don't mince words.
Did that sound like a rant?
LOL A little. It made me laugh. When you get fired up its always funny as hell to me for some reason.
Calm down 6 strings
I just hate the Colts, so it doesn't take much to get me going on the subject
You calm down stinky!
OKay Texy Pooh, my Bromosexual
LOL So disturbing.
ha, wheres my nipple
On the chest of some slut in a titty bar someplace.
you all have me so mistaken, I have not been to a place like that in a long time
Yeah but we are coming down next season and we are going to a game and we

are going to tailgate with Griff and his crew. Photo op you know.

of course, we may have to stumble into a place
Yeah. We need a 4th as a designated driver.
I will bring my girlfriend
Irsay said he wants another SB before he dies.

My impression of that is: “we’re going forward with Manning.”

Furthermore,

Tanking the game assured them #1 overall. That’s the pick to have this year if you wanna trade it.

That Blackmon stiff arm was nas-tay
Blackmon looks like E.J. Manuel
I'm telling ya, if we can get Blackmon across from BM I think Moore will be good enough with our D.
We don't want good enough.
I love the way aggressive college coaches go for it on 4th down.
OK State got hosed by the BCS.

They should be playing LSU.

Luck doesn't have anybody to throw it to

No Fleener or Owasu. Griff fucking Whalen is his best WR! And he’ll be lucky if he’s UDFA

Shame on OSU for continuing to blitz this guy
Luck feels the pressure so well

That’s why I think he’ll be elite outside the physical toolselitism

There is no doubting that. He has lived up to his hype tonight!
whoever has last possession is gonna win.
I was thinking the same.

Ok St should’ve used more time up in the RZ on that last possession.

I don't think we'll see Fintastic47 around here very much for awhile

Luck 26-30, 345 yards, 2TD’s LOL

He threw too much underneath

OSU’s defense sucks. He doesn’t have elite arm strength.

Just giving you the weakness that will be brought.

Right
  1. team in the nation isn’t good enough competition obviously. The arm strength thing I’ve never gotten and he made every throw you want in this game from deep sideline to long seem route. But I’m sure he’ll try that crap on us.
I hope he misses the FG
Called it kinda
Oh sh!t,

just realized I was behind time on the DVR.

that beard is terrible.
he looks Amish.LMAO
LOL!

Yeah, his agent needs to advise him on that.

Lots of amish furniture in his apartment

And also … Wi Fi!!??

LOL
All for naught

Eeeeeexxxxccccelllllleeennnt

Kick is NO GOOD

Freshman jitters

OMG! Poor kicker.

Ha! Thats Daves fault!
whenever they talk a guy up like that it is a jinx
Test
  1. dhsdksdjkdjka wfjwklflk wj flf wl
Wow!!!!!!

The Kicker missed it. I fStanford loses this game the kicker may not be let on the plane.

I just read this gem on twitter:
If I ran the Dolphins I’d hedge my bets at quarterback with this plan. Matt Moore is here to stay, and that’s a good thing. But I’d address the position by signing Green Bay’s Matt Flynn, and draft Oklahoma State’s Brandon Weeden in the second round. That gives the team three good quarterback options, and you can still use your first round draft pick on a position of need. One of those three – Moore, Flynn or Weeden – will get the job done for the rest of the decade.
Who tweeted this?
guess
Tony Sparano?
Kelly
Osborne?

What does she know about football?

She'd probably draft Luck
If she knew what she was doing.
lol. Remember the "Playa Haters Ball" on Chappelle Show?

They were commenting on pictures of celebs, and Kelly Osborne picture came up. “I’ve heard the song she sings—‘Papa Don’t Preach.’ Well here’s another song for you, bitch—it’s called ‘Daughter Don’t Sing.’”

LOL I thought the racial draft was the funniest.
Fintastic47?
LOL... no because Henne was not involved
Oh yeah

That’s right.

who twatted that?
Lol

That is a gem.

A recipe for fail

Maybe not, because I haven’t seen Matt Flynn play, but that doesnt sound right

Matt Flynn made so much money yesterday, it's almost sickening.
yeah

Life isn’t fair is it?

he should be kicked in the head hard!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

he should be kicked in the head nuts hard!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

FIFY

He lost me with Matt Moore
Or we could get Flynn and draft a QB in every draft rd and hope Colombo and the rest of our line progresses.

That’s a joke BTW.

I think we should draft a QB in every round, we have to hit on one right
This guy is going to get his ass kicked tomorrow
He's gonna get tied to a post bareback

Tarred and feather with his testicles superglued to the chicken wire

This numbnuts missed again

Watch Fintastic47 blame Luck for not winning the Fiesta Bowl lol. Henne would have pulled through no doubt!

lol. It's true
Oh damn

Blackmon did it again.

Ther e was the biggest holding on that play watch the left side of the line
OMG

If OSU wins this thing. The Stanford kicker is going to need a cab.

He's already in the cab
To the hospital.
Those Stanford kids are too smart for their own good.

He probably was over thinking the ramifications too much instead of just kicking the damn ball.

he better keep his helmet on for life
Well judging by his foot, he definitely can't walk.
what if he misses
Oh my god, OSU's kicker is Jeff Spicoli
"People on ludes should not drive"
Why would OK not go for a TD
Luck choked, Henne would have won it
Luck should've been the one kicking those FGs.
Luck should have been the Mike backer
THAT KID IS GOING TO BE THE NEXT RAY FINKLE
Quick!

Lets shuttle the kicker to a safe house away from fans……. for the week.

a week wont be long enough
We can hide him in the Mexican drug tunnels.
in one of Bacons cages
We can hide him in the Mexican drug tunnels.

.
There are Andrew Luck fans in Mexico too

Maybe but even the DEA can not find them so...........
his parents are scared for him, really
Stanford would never hurt him. If anything, the student body would just report that kicker to the EPA
who cares, it wasnt for the national championship, it was the chips bowl
Blackmon has a pimple that is staring at me
Brandon Weeden = Harry Anderson
Yeah, I can see that

We need a Richard Mol lookalike.

Stop it

I agree, though. Harry Anderson was great on Night Court.

I have been trying to figure out who he reminded me of all game
how old is weeden? he looks 40
28
a lot of crows feet for a 28 year old
This game stressed him out
musta done alot of drugs as a kid
during Woodstock
lol

Speak nicely about our next QB.

with the 8th pick the miami dolphins select old man weeden
lol
dont laugh, it could happen
so your saying we are hiring Cam Cameron back as HC?
I love coming to the Phinsider
a lot of crows feet for a 28 year old

For hilarious comments like this.

Thats why its funny stinky!
haha
Im going to take my helmet and go to bed now
Do you have to wear a hemet and the harness?
Playing guitar now. Any requests?

In memory of Andrew Luck's Stanford career?

Cue the funeral music.

Something like this:

My Feet Keep Dancing for the OSU kicker.
