— THE KEY PLAY (@thekeyplay) November 15, 2013Ball State casts OPEN FIELD TACKLE. It’s not very effective.
— Peter Berkes (@peterberkes) November 14, 2013I don't care where you think Jordan Lynch is in the national hierarchy. He's a MAC dinner theater legend and that's enough for me.
— Spencer Hall (@edsbs) November 14, 2013@InTheBleachers have you seen his heart? It's 3 sizes too big. He's 90% heart.

— Eleven Warriors (@11W) November 16, 2013Wow, Cincinnati now up 17-7 at Rutgers. Stay safe if you're in New York tonight, you know how scary that city gets coping with a loss.
— Steven Godfrey (@38Godfrey) November 16, 2013So who's up for an analogy between Michigan's offense and the inept Russian performance at Narva in the Great Northern War?
— Michael (@BravesAndBirds) November 16, 2013That's what I love about the wind. Forces a big INT, but you don't see a gawdy celebration. Just goes about its business. Keeps blowing.
— David Ubben (@davidubben) November 16, 2013That pass play by Virginia Tech feels decisive, even though it's a long way to Tipperary.
— Matt Zemek (@MattZemek_CFN) November 16, 2013every cloud has a khaki lining “@LTBelcher: I was initially devastated about VT losing, but then I realized we're in #BELKBOWL range.”

— Holly Anderson (@HollyAnderson) November 16, 2013That Richt explosion probably sounded like a network airing of Bull Durham. "Call me a fluffernutter again, and you're outta here!"
— Josh Massey (@joshmassey1) November 16, 2013And the circle is closed. RT @paheadband: @HollyAnderson MARK RICHT HAS LOST CONTROL OF MARK RICHT
— Andy Staples (@Andy_Staples) November 16, 2013I hope this score holds so Ohio State football is exactly one point better than the basketball team.

— The Gurgling Cod (@TheGurglingCod) November 16, 2013USC safety Dion Bailey looks forward to a game between 2 pro-style running teams: "It starts at 5, and it might be over by 6:30."
— Greg Beacham (@gregbeacham) November 14, 2013Miss St going against Alabama is like the Rebel Alliance going against the Empire. Except they're driving Pintos instead of flying X-Wings.
— Eleven Warriors (@11W) November 17, 2013Whoever is calling color on FS1 sounds like he's auditioning to be the voice of a vagrant komondor in a movie about cartoon dogs.

— Ramzy Nasrallah (@ramzy) November 17, 2013It's pretty loud on the field after a big game. That's why opposing coaches congratulate each other through a complex system of patting.
