This Week in College Football 10/28 - 10/30

Recommended Posts

Purdue's season has fallen apart as they lose their third straight, this time to Northwestern 13-10. Kyle Orton was apparantly benched late in the game.

 

Nebraska now emerges as the favorite in the pathetic Big XII North as they are up 24-3 late against Missouri.

Hard to believe they were a dark-horse Orange Bowl contender a month ago...

Peterson finishes with 25 more yards than White

 

How 'bout that

 

Long as he knows he's not going to the NFL next year.

 

He has a serious shot at the Heisman. No one else is standing out of the upper classmen.

Wow....just wow. One of the best Bedlam games ever!

OSU is a lot better than anyone thought.

OU had some major special teams problems but then they cleared that up.

I don't think OU has anything to be ashamed of. They played a legit Top 25 maybe Top 15 team and hung in there even when OSU just kept getting up. That's tough when you knock a team down and it's back in your face immediately. But it was just an amazing game. OU proved why they're #2 with a hard win over a very good team on the road in a hostile environment.

If they beat A&M next week in an even more hostile environment then they solidfy there place as one of the Top 2 teams in the nation.

 

These in-state rivalries are crazy. First Cal almost knocks off USC and then OSU almost knocks off OU.

 

It's crazy but I'm happy that OU was able to participate in one of the great games and prove themselves. Rather than folding up after 2 huge botched special teams and a never say die attitude from the other team they kept taking it to them.

 

Just a great game.

And the OU trend of looking like crap week after week continues.

Umm....actually they looked great. Aside from 2 botched special teams plays(albeit huge ones) they looked great. And every other week they prove that they can score when they want to. They dangle the carrot in front of other teams then snatch it away.

 

Plus USC was knocked around by Cal and it came down to the last play in that game. So if you're going to give USC props for beating Cal then OU gets props for beating OSU.

Now I'm pumped for the A&M game! We beat them and that gives us 3 Top 25 wins on the season! Just as many as USC and two of ours came on the road and one on a neutral site!

Yeah I guess the players rallying behind Ron Zook didn't happen.

Wonder what the Top 5 will look like at the end of the day? The exact same b/c none of them are losing......

Or it could be that they're playing an excellent team at a neutral site.

FSU is. 6-3 Maryland right now.

The North is making the South look bad. The South has one bad team.....Baylor. And boy is it a bad one. Why the hell is Baylor in the Big XII anyways?

It was in the old Big 8.

Wrong

 

The old Big 8 is the current Big 12 minus the four Texas schools (UT, AnM, Tech and Baylor)

You're right. Scratch that...I don't know why Baylor is in the Big XII.
