Btw, other than the one bomb to Washington this game has been much slower & less offensively prolific than I thought it'd be because TCU is milking the clock. Though the pacing might just feel that way because the refs have had some long stoppages. (Also thank goodness the rumor Mike Gundy cut his mullet was false. That thing is glorious.) |

Was at the game, tons of GT fumbles, bad passes, but it was fun. The heat SUCKED. We had a take a few breaks to get the kids in the shade (they were happy to get concessions, shade = king of pops). This is one of those teams that I can see easily winning 8 or 9 games, or losing the rest of their games.

Purdue and Michigan are tied at 7 and Purdue just picked UM. And is inside the UM 30.
B1G may miss the playoff this season. This is like the days of the SEC where everyone beat each other up.

Miami has the excuse that FSU had. 3 weeks off from their last game and Toledo is a pretty good MAC team most years. The other two are inexcusable. |

Thats what ESecPN told you, I know. Poor Nebraska. Tanner Lee just threw another Pick 6. Guy has more TD passes to the opposition than to his own team.

Doubtful. Its a dumpster fire. But who wants that job? You here Frost from UCF. But why would he leave? Sure its his alma mater. But it is probably a career step backwards. Northern Illinois is pulling better recruits than Nebraska in the B1G footprint. There is limited access to Texas now that they left the Big 12. They are in a state with no population. It is turning into a MAC level job. Or worse.

And since I'm fun like this ... so South Carolina beat NC State who beat FSU ... and SC is getting pushed around by La Tech today.

Hmmmm.... Justin Beasley on Twitter: "#Vandy's Nifae Lealao: "We expected to get this. When you come to our house we show you how to play some SEC ball... Alabama, you're next." https://t.co/koegcHRZnE" Well they just fired their AD, so presumably they'll wait to get a new one in before letting him go, but yeah... Btw in your list of struggling area teams you forgot Clemson somehow being tied at home with a BC team Notre Dame ran all over last week. (And was Wake actually supposed to be good?) |

Well, when I posted, it was at least 7-0 Clemson. And, yeah, Wake had a cpl of votes in both polls last week. So maybe not "good" per se, but at least top 50'ish.

I thought Okie St was the darling team this year.
Not today. Down 34-17 after the PAT

Targeting is such a tough penalty. I know why its there. But that Purdue kid didnt have a chance to stop. And he hit him with his shoulder. It just happened the michigan kid was going low.
Too bad.

I really don't think OSU could have possibly called a worse play there. You have a heisman candidate QB and driving to cut the lead to 6 and you decide you'd rather have your WR throwing the ball?

Terrible playcall by Ok State. I could see it a lot further away due to its big play potential, but no reason to call a WR pass in the red zone when you're averaging like 8 yards a play.
Great gameplan & balance by TCU today. 6 different ballcarriers & 8 receivers. Though it's not quite over yet... Btw it's funny how the tables turn each week. I'm here ready to admit Brohm's doing a great job at Purdue & they're better, thus Louisville's close win over them looks better and it improves Clemson's resume... but then Clemson struggles (for 3 quarters) with a bad BC team & Alabama curbstomps a fringe Top 25 team, outgaining them 677-78. |

As badly as Okie St defense has played, I wonder why they didnt try an onside kick.

Great start by Iowa.
Bend but dont break. Now we run it down their throat. A 15 play drive would be awesome.

It looks like Iowa is likely to come closer to a 15-play HALF at this point. Doing well keeping PSU off the scoreboard though.

You aint kidding. Our offense is not executing. Drops, over throws. Ugh.
Defense is playing well. But the O needs to contribute soon, or its going to be a long 2nd half.

NDSU Bison running back, Lance Dunn, touched the ball 4 times in a 56-0 W over Robert Morris and scored 4 touchdowns. He had 121 total yards. He had TD runs of 61, 45, and 5, and a reception of 10.
That's a statline that's hard to top.

Iowa football is being outgained 219-54 in a half.
Iowa defense is going to start giving up huge plays in the 2nd half. 19:30-10:30 TOP. Barkley goes beast mode in the 2nd half. How is Baylor beating Oklahoma? I watched Baylor against Duke and they looked like a 2nd tier mid major conference team. Last edited by jbergey22 : 09-23-2017 at 08:18 PM. |

Barkley 17 touches, barely 100 yards total.
He is getting abused.

Once of the odder stat lines you'll see this weekend
Kerryon Johnson, Auburn. Currently 48 yards on 18 carries ... oh, and 5 touchdowns.
