Pitt wins 35-10. Givens comes up big coming of an injury by rushing for over a 100 yards and 2 scores.

The King of Pop and Dexter's alter ego. Good week in recruiting!

Stupid USC. Lame.

Had a big shootout with BYU yesterday. After giving up a ton of points I managed to win it in the 4th. Don't let the 80-52 score fool you. BYU were lighting me up and I didn't feel safe until the clock ran out. Goal line fumbles, interceptions in the red zone, blown coverages from my secondary. It was the craziest game I've ever played against a CPU team. The last couple of offensive TDs were just rage driven.

Hey, just curious, does anyone here have Portals 2? If so, have you hugged a Kush lately?

Trying to get the "Hug 3 people on your friends list". I hugged Shag. I feel dirty. Atleast I didn't Shag hugged....................

*EDIT*
Also, it sounds like Hoppa may be trading in 11 for 12. If so, I might actually jump ship myself, as much as I wanted to continue until NCAA12 starts, I found myself playing a lot of Portals and Transformers WFC. I may want to get everything in with those games before hopping into NCAA12. I may still play my game tonight. If I don't, Shag can roll through me.

We pretty much dissolved the 2* Dynasty as well.

Good run. Let's rock out some NCAA 12 now!

I will leave it up to the group. If you guys want to be done with NCAA11, I will just put everyone on autopilot and sim the rest of the season and see where it falls. At least we would be able to say we got through 4 full seasons!

Sounds good to me.

I'm down with that. My copy of NCAA 12 is in UPS's able hands, and will be in my grimy paws tomorrow.

GWJ BCS News Flash:

After many weeks of thought and discussion with my family, I have decided to step down as commissioner of the GWJ BCS League. *wipes tears away as cameras flashing* I feel burnt out as the head of the league and must now think of a supporting roll to continue the success that the league has had. I will continue to be part of the league as a member and will continue to defeat Kush at all costs during the up coming seasons. Thank you all for your support and understanding.

I would like to throw my hat into the circle to replace Shag. Mind you, I will not be returning to the Madden league, as I find my time is better spent here with this awesome group, and I would definitely want to keep the core group of owners that we have.

I'm cool with rolling through on sim mode. I, too, am being distracted by all the shinies from the Steam sale.

I will roll through Season 4 tonight.

Roll it!!

And I can get on board with a Kush regime.

Although I'm tempted to run against Kush for commissioner, I'll gladly welcome our new overlord.

BTW, I saw Boise St beat Rutgers in a bowl since Shag simmed the entire league for Season IV.

I am calling Shinanigans, 51-7 WILL NEVER DIE!!!!

EDIT
Also saw the final score was 35-6. WOW.

Aww, man. You simmed all the way to the next season. Now I can't see how TCU did for the remaining games from the website.

Obviously the season was filled with fail since they're unranked now.
