The College Football Thread 9/13 - 9/15

I don't think so. Penn State was not as highly regarded as Michigan then and Appalachian State is a FCS team whereas Buffalo is actually a FBS team.

 

Being the worst team in the MAC is just about as close as being a Div-II team as possible, besides, Penn State is already pulling ahead 17-3 at the half.

It looks like the Big Ten will be won by Penn State or Purdue the way things are going right now...

 

Michigan just plain sucks, Ohio State's offense is anemic (20 points against Akron, plus giving up a safety), and WTF is wrong with Wisconsin?

I would like to mention that Wisconsin hasn't actually lost yet, they're just making it look way too dificult thus far.

 

Virginia Tech now down 7-0 at home against Ohio early in the 2nd quarter. The ACC and Big 10 are racing each other to the bottom of the barrel.

Something I've never seen before in the UVA/UNC uglyfest: the back judge miscalled a good field goal. The ball went through the uprights at the bottom left corner, and both judges ruled no good. Thankfully UVA's video guys caught it and got them to go to the replay. Further evidence that ACC refs are the worst in the land.

Again, they haven't lost yet. They just re-took the lead with PJ Hill's fourth touchdown rush. And, they didn't actually lose last week either.

 

Yes, they have been more than frustrating at times the past couple weeks at times but, to act like their season is over is really dumb.

I just turned on the TV to ESPN and the first thing I see is some Pitt player telling a teammate "You look fucking tired." OMG call the FCC!

Who's playing a division 2 team?

 

 

 

 

 

Why is ESPN2 bouncing around from game to game and then going back to C Mich vs. Purdue?

UW held OSU scoreless through the 1st quarter, but that'll change shortly at they're at about the 20. A great diffensive stop was negated by a running into the punter penalty :angry:

Mississippi State has almost officially Croomed Auburn, 19-14, with 48 seconds left in the 4th.

 

I don't follow Mississippi State that closely but will that win save Croom's job for next season?

 

Also, I'm glad that game finished because the local ABC affiliate in Bowling Green was airing that game and not taking us to Michigan-Notre Dame.

Damn, what should have been a fumble is ruled an incomplete pass and since it's non re-viewable OSU keeps the ball, instead of the Husky touchdown it would have been. boooo.

Iowa just lost to Iowa State after a failed attempt to re-create the Big Game kickoff return by Cal against Stanford.

Touchdown Huskies, 7-3 going into the half.

 

Edit: and apparantly that's the first TD Ohio State has given up this season.

Minnesota also just lost to Florida Atlantic. I am really going to miss the "Embarrassing Big Ten Loss(es) of the Week" once conference games start.

 

Was that the second one of the year so far? And, does it really count as embarassing when its Minnesota being beaten? They're like the JV of the Big Ten.

Can Notre Dame beat anybody this year? Goddamn, they are bad.

MAYBE three teams at the end of the year...

 

They play Stanford (the patsy of the Pac10), Navy (service academy, although they've been a bowl team recently), and Duke (probably the worst BCS Conference team).

That game alone? No.

 

However, if they use this to right the ship and get 5-7 wins, it should do it.

 

(They've got 2 wins right now and still play Ole Miss, Arkansas, I-AA Gardner-Webb, and UAB, so 6 wins COULD be realistic.)

 

 

 

Having them beating Tennessee, West Virginia, South Carolina, Alabama, or Kentucky is a stretch with their limited offense right now.

 

(They've got a good running game but suck at passing.)

Lou Holtz says that the ND offense looks "quite inept at this time".

Lou Holtz just needs a shell and he can be a tortoise... he's always been slow to catch onto things, but this is bad even for him.

 

 

"10 wins this year" my ass, Lou.

An Ohio State touchdown followed by UW fumbling away the kickoff has squashed my hopes on this game pretty damn fast. Come on UW
