wow, you were serious about it not being on tv? I thought you were kidding by insinuating that NFL Network is not real tv.

I didn't say it wasn't real TV, I just didn't know they were in the business of broadcasting college football games.

I've watched the NFL Network many times, but it's always had NFL programming on.

The NFL Network televised a number of the bowl games - probably out of necessity to ensure that all the bowl games were televised.

I think they actually did a good job, as there was some good insight on which players would and wouldn't be a fit in the NFL.

I think Il Padrino was referring to the "number" as in 1. I love how all these haters point to BYU having to pull wins out of their asses. Good teams find a way to win. Think how many times in Crowton's tenure did we snatch defeat out of the Jaws of victory. I will forever hate Matt Payne for his suckiness and all those dickheads who loved him simply because he knew how to tackle regardless of the fact that his crappy punts always set up the returner for big gains.

I'm not a hater. I stated a fact. Had the UCLA kicker not kicked the ball so low, UCLA would have won that game.

As for Crowton, that was more Doman and Staley.

I can't believe you're still using this line. That was after what, 3 games? Our bowl game ended up being more exciting than most of the BCS games.

I see you've personally adopted the Poppinga theory that you've been mocking for 4 years now.

LOL, if Anae had grounded the ball and UCLA's kicker had missed his two 50+ yarders, they wouldn't have even tried to kick the last one and miss it.

If BYU had actually bothered to develop an offensive game plan that was different than the one they used in week 2, they wouldn't have even tried to kick the last one and miss it.
