Well guys we certainly had an interesting week of college football so lets get at it.
1. Well the game of the day was without a doubt Michigan-Penn State. People have ripped Michigan for this that and the next thing but the fact is the better team won. Are there dumb decisions to criticize Hoke for? Yup but hey to start triple OT O'Brien called for an end around and the PSU Kid fumbled so both coaches made questionable choices in the game
You can blame the kicker and others but i'm not going to. The better team won yesterday. If Michigan was better they would've made a stop defensively but they weren't better. Penn State earned it and deserved. I knew when O Brien went for it on 4th and 1 in the 4th OT Michigan was done. Honestly i'm not suprised at yesterday Penn State finally has a HC who doesn't run a Fred Flintsone offense and a qb who may be 1 of the best in the big 10
Penn State fans may not like this last thing i'll say but there's only 1 bad thing about Penn State winning. You know what it is? The Paterno family will make it all about themselves and that win belongs to those coaches and players
2. Stanford lost a tough 1 to Utah yesterday i don't think less of Stanford. It was their 1st trip to Utah since the Utes joined the pac-12. Possibly they were looking ahead to UCLA but give Utah credit they've lost some tough games in the pac-12 and thats a win that maybe keeps Whittingham off the hot seat. I'll admit i was wrong about the impact Dennis Erickson would have on the Utah offense. You can just tell they look a lot better since he became the OC.
3. Well Texas showed up huh? Blake Bell played like dog crap i know because he was 1 of my 2 fantasy qb's yesterday I have advice for Bob Stoops quit worrying about the SEC a$$holeworry about your own team. As for Texas you hear "well if Texas wins the rest of their games they have to keep Mack Brown" The win doesn't change anything imo. Texas needs to get new blood in there imo. But hey its amazing what can happen when you tackle on defense
4. I watched the playoff MLB game last night and was flipping to watch the A&M-Ole Miss game during breaks. That was a really good game between 2 good teams. Ole Miss had their chances and it seems as though Ole Miss is mentally weak late in games. 1 thing Freeze has to deal with there is the mentality from fans "Same Ole Miss" Who has Ole Miss lost to that Ole Miss was better than? Not A&M or Bama i don't think they're better than Auburn. Hey Ole Miss is getting better but Freeze said himself on signing day "People are excited about our recruiting class but we're still 2-3 years away from having the depth to win the SEC"
Ole Miss fans just calm down ok? I still think they can win 8 games but we shall see. Hell i think they beat LSU this week
5 Well ESPN did their best this past week trying to make Jadeveon Clowney into Johnny Football because he didn't play vs Kentucky. Who cares? I could've been a DE for S.Carolina vs Kentucky. You had Herbstreit saying"How dare Clowney use college football for his own benefit"And Cowherd the same guy who once compared Tom Brady to Bono and Aaron Rodgers to nickelback said he wouldn't draft Clowney #1 because S.Carolina hasn't won the SEC EastLook getting mad at Cowherd for saying something stupid is like yelling at a puppy for pooping on the carpet but guys come up with better material
6. Guys i have something to rant about i'm tired of teams wearing 564 different uniforms. Can we stick to 2-3 uniforms please? Yesterday there was a team wearing a black jersey and a white helmet who was it? Duke Because when i think the color black i think Duke. Look if Oregon does it fine because they were the 1st but can we stay in the same uniform please?
7 Guys have you ever watched a game where you had to shower afterwards because it was a bad game? Well i had to take 4 showers after watching USF-UCONN. The 2 qb's completed 23 of 71 passes how is that possible? Before you ask i had a big play on UCONN but no matter the final score that game was a joke
8. People made too much out of Louisville's win over Rutgers. Yeah they didn't play well but that was their 1st true test this year. They've been beating up on Cupcakes for most of the year and Rutgers isn't a cupcake. Too much made of Bridgewater's play as well. Look i'll still take Teddy over any qb in the country. Lousiville should get tested again this Friday vs UCF
9. Train69 is getting his SEC title game tickets ready as Mizzou is 6-0 They went into Georgia and took care of business. Franklin separated his shoulder and Maty Mauk will be the starter for awhile. Interesting game between Mizzou and Florida this week. But i think Mauk will end up being the starter even if Franklin can return healthy
10. Well Boom has been gone for the past couple weeks. I hope he comes back but i don't blame him if he doesn't as covers has become a weiner measuring contest. Interesting game with FSU and Clemson this week in Death Valley. Should be a lot of points in that 1. Boom if you're reading this please come back soon f the haters man
Well that was the 10 things we learned. Your thoughts
