QUOTE (RockRaines @ Nov 2, 2014 -> 02:51 AM) They would need to have only one loss but it's going to be tight. Too many teams at the top play each other. Ole Miss is going to have a very tough time scoring going forward. If I had to guess right now, the final 4 will be Alabama, Miss St, Oregon and TCU

QUOTE (RockRaines @ Nov 2, 2014 -> 03:41 AM) When Bama beats Auburn and Miss st fire and brimstone will rain from the heavens. Still an easy path for two SEC West teams to make it. Alabama wins out, an Miss St. wins the Egg Bowl. Miss St. would still make it despite playing in SEC Championship

Poor Treadwell....dislocated ankle while fumbling into the end zone for possible game winner. Auburn got away with a massive helmet to helmet after the fumble.

Nice deal for Milwaukee. Should be fun seeing Estrada give up a ton of homers in the AL.

Taj with the worst 5 minute stretch he's had in years.

What is Taj doing out there? Stupid plays galore by him

Gasol is the one man momentum killer tonight. They are going to have to watch his minutes, as hopefully Taj is fine

Taj looks awesome, and I love watching McDermott play. With that said, Rose looks like he forgot how to shoot. His shot is incredibly flat right now.

I can't believe I have to watch Hinrich again this year. Also, what a terrible charge call on Rose.

QUOTE (raBBit @ Oct 30, 2014 -> 12:16 AM) Tim Anderson? For a year of Jeff Samardzija? I wouldn't be a fan of it, but considering they gave up a top 5 prospect to get him last year, it would make sense for them to try and replenish the SS depth in their system. If the Sox did a trade like this, I think they would extend Samardzija right away.

For some reason, I keep thinking Samardzija might be their main target this offseason. I'm not a fan, but could a deal look like Anderson, Beck and Viciedo for him?

QUOTE (whitesoxfan99 @ Oct 29, 2014 -> 09:38 PM) Meh. Maddon is a good manager but managers just don't have a big impact on wins and losses. If their young talent plays to their potential, Ned Yost or Ozzie Guillen could lead them to the postseason. The main thing the Maddon hire will do is create even more buzz for their future, which was pretty high heading into the offseason. I also expect them to spend a ton this offseason, as they are huge favorites to sign Lester. Hopefully the Dodgers continue to field an All-Star team, while the Pirates and Cardinals continue to put competitive teams out on the field.

QUOTE (KyYlE23 @ Oct 29, 2014 -> 01:45 AM) Peavy is Peavying I can't believe he was talking about the Cubs like he was the day before pitching the biggest game of his career.

QUOTE (witesoxfan @ Oct 28, 2014 -> 05:42 PM) Sweet, I'll take Peavy and Lester in a package deal. Says Theo and Maddon

QUOTE (Y2JImmy0 @ Oct 28, 2014 -> 05:27 PM) What do you think it'd take? You frequent Toronto boards don't you? If the Sox are going to trade them one of their 2nd baseman, I really hope it's Sanchez.

QUOTE (fathom @ Oct 28, 2014 -> 05:14 PM) If TCU wins out, they absolutely deserve to be in the playoffs, in my opinion. They'd have 4 quality wins (Oklahoma, Oklahoma St, Kansas State and at WVU). Scratch Oklahoma St from the list, as they're going to lose a lot of games the rest of the way. Their schedule is insane this year: - FSU (neutral site) - at TCU - WVU - at Kansas St - at Baylor - at Oklahoma

If TCU wins out, they absolutely deserve to be in the playoffs, in my opinion. They'd have 4 quality wins (Oklahoma, Oklahoma St, Kansas State and at WVU).

QUOTE (Y2JImmy0 @ Oct 28, 2014 -> 02:33 PM) Sox acquire DH Adam Lind in about a week from Toronto. totally agree with you on this

Nebraska winning out until the Big Ten Champ Game could be a huge boost to Mich St's hopes. Nebraska could possibly be a top ten team if they go 11-1.

QUOTE (Buehrle>Wood @ Oct 27, 2014 -> 01:40 AM) They should probably beat someone good first. There's a possibility that by the end of the year, they will have no top 25 wins even if they win out.

QUOTE (RockRaines @ Oct 27, 2014 -> 01:36 AM) I may never say this again. ND deserves to be in the playoff IMO. I feel like TCU is easily the most underrated one loss team. I'm not sure why UGa is rated so highly.

Car accident unfortunately

@Buster_ESPN: Rival executives believe that if Joe Maddon winds up with the Cubs, the Rays will investigate the issue of tampering.

Basically every baseball expert is predicting Maddon to Cubs now.

Andrew Friedman already on the record today saying they won't hire Maddon
