    There's a draft in here, oh wait, everyone left the backdoor open...



    UNC nearly pulled off a big comeback to start the weekend but just fell short.  Whatever Mack is selling, the Tarheels are buying.  Maybe the program was starved for stability

    The Kansas football team strolled into Chestnut Hill and put up 48 on BC.  I said that right.  BC gets Rutgers this weekend and might be a little more motivated

    Wazzou used their pass-control offense to throw for 440 yards but left the backdoor open for Houston

    Ohio State crushed Indiana

    North Dakota State, I mean Kansas State rolled into Starkville and took down Mississippi State in a game that showed why you practice catching punts.  The Miss St QB is still airborn from that last hit

    West Virginia showed up finally.  NC State failed to adjust and cost themselves the game.  WVU had 3 interior OL making their first starts and just ran outside all day.  NC State never adjusted and WVU has decent speed, especially WR Sam James

    Temple gave the Terps a reality check in what looked like an ugly game.

    Penn State will be the next Big10 team to get their reality check.  Pitt blew several chances to take that one

    Eastern Michigan continued their dominance over the Big10.  Lovie Smith's beard is amazing though

    Georgia went classy with a Pink Out for Arky State's coaches wife, but showed no mercy on the field in a good looking warmup for the Irish next week

    Colorado got too high after their win over the Huskers and the Air Force grounded them in OT

    Virginia Tech almost Virginia Tech'd the game against Furman

    The Citadel defeated Georgia Tech using the triple option which Georgia Tech abandoned this season.   That's like getting run over by a car you used to own

    Brandon Wimbush Completion % Tracker:  Did not play again, but I think he did miss a wide open sideline assistant when passing the clipboard over after the game

    Alabama's defense over-pursues and cost themselves a lot of yards after the catch.  One simple move constantly turned 3 yards into 8-10.  The backdoor was also open on this one, I'll rant about it later.   Najee Harris made one of the plays of the year with a stiff arm and hurdle for a TD

    Army did not disclose any info on QB Kelvin Hopkins being injured, that would have been nice.  The backup played well enough though to cover, barely

    BYU did something interesting against USC... they baited them to run all day with only 3 down lineman and a 4th wandering one side or the other.  It worked to slow down the Trojans passing yardage.

    Minnesota must love drama as they play their 3rd straight OOC nailbiter

    It's so Iowa that the CyHawk game finally gets national TV attention from Gameday and then is delayed multiple times for multiple hours

    Herm owns Dantonio I guess.   Sparty's scoring outburst last week must have been an anomaly as they racked up yards but not points and penalties did them in.   12 men on the tying FG simply cannot happen.  The missed leaping call on ASU was just as bad

    Feel bad for Feliepe Franks, but I think we all knew Florida could do better at QB

    Syracuse could have easily made that a game but they kept shooting themselves in the foot, drops, penalties and turnovers cost them at least 21 points when it was still a game

    Rant preface:  Yes, I had Alabama -25 but this isn't about that.  This is about Muschamp being a douchebag and having his starting (backup) Freshman QB out there down 31 under 2 minutes left and still throwing the ball.  The kid got hit in the head trying to make a play.  It nearly cost him his QB and it also cost Bama depth for next week as the defender was ejected for targeting.  Stupid all around

    Trend of the year:  Boise State defense with their third 2nd half shutout to start the year.  

    Other stuff:

    Zach Wilson's mom is hot for a mormon chick



    That's all I can remember for now, made it to 2am watching the offensive explosion in the desert that wasn't.

    Accept no substitutes…

    College Ames Day

    Kirk Farentz is on FarmersOnly.com

    Is this Heaven? (from Field of Dreams)

    Hawkeye is the worst Avenger

    Kobe Bryant throws better passes than Nate Staley

    We can all agree Nebraska sucks

     

    Did you see it? When they tossed it over to The Bear, the camera angle was above, so you could see what was on a small desk to his right…top of a clipboard…there it was. His copy of Phil Steele….what say you?

    It appears that CORN does NOT affect the size of the cheerleader’s chests. They are a carpenter’s dream-flat as a board, and never been nailed. I mean, they may have some wiggle, but there’s no jiggle…

    Total class move by Georgia having a “Pink Out” to honor the late wife of Arkansas St. head coach Blake Anderson. But, did the starters have to be in so long after a 34-0 first half? Fans are #1, coach………just outside the Top Ten…

    Memo to ESPN, FIX THE AUDIO!

    How about a little baseball? Last Wednesday, the Mets celebrated 9/11 (it was a way station for supplies, equipment, and medical facilities during a “break” from baseball), by having New Yorks finest in blue and firefighters by wearing special socks, one of a kind shoes that will be auctioned, etc. They won the game, 9-0. When a camera focused of the scoreboard showing the Mets line, it read 09 11 0 (for R H E), and put it on the main screen. People went nuts. You can’t make this stuff up….

    Which one of these doesn’t belong? Chris Petersen, David Shaw, Chip Kelly, Kyle Whittingham, Justin Wilcox, Kevin Sumlin, Mike Leach, Mario Christobal, Herm Edwards, and…..Clay Helton. See how easy that is? Team with the most students, most money (University of Spoiled Children is not a state school), and you end up with THAT? True, I didn’t list every coach (Ore. St coach is in his second year), and you can point fingers at coaches that don’t win 10 games. It’s statistically impossible for ALL of them to go 10-3, 9-4……….

    USC will not be going with the old former player route, (as long as OJ is still in jail) as Lynn “resigned”. They are conducting a “search” for a new AD, and you will never guess, in a million years, where they are looking. There were some prominent names mentioned, but the one that stood out to me was……………..wait for it…………..Gene Smith, Duh Ohio State . I don’t think I have to draw a map for you.

    Funniest college name? I’ll go with SHITTA SILLAH from Boston College

    Second funniest name? Can’t believe nobody ever noticed this? This guy hates Michigan. He’s on tv now. And won’t even say the word. (just to show he’s still not interested in coaching….right) Hey, Urban Meyer, what are your initials? You can’t spell University of Michigan with UM. So, I’m going to rename him Urban Of Meyer until he gets back into coaching. I’ll hold my breathe…

    In a game that was a complete waste of time, Arizona State beat Michigan State 10-7 when Spartan FG kicker (was 7-7 before this game) missed his first two. And with time running out, nailed a 42-yarder, but wait………penalty! Five Yards! Subsequent 47-yarder, of course, missed. Also missed, the fact that a Az player ran up and over a lineman for the block. That’s a penalty that was not called. Oh, well. It could have been worse. It could have been Spartan offense vs. Spartan defense….

    That’s Herm Edwards on Line 3 trying to extend this series…

    Congratulations to Michigan not losing this week…

    Accept no substitutes…

    College Ames Day

    Kirk Farentz is on FarmersOnly.com

    Is this Heaven? (from Field of Dreams)

    Hawkeye is the worst Avenger

    Kobe Bryant throws better passes than Nate Staley

    We can all agree Nebraska sucks

     

    Did you see it? When they tossed it over to The Bear, the camera angle was above, so you could see what was on a small desk to his right…top of a clipboard…there it was. His copy of Phil Steele….what say you?

    It appears that CORN does NOT affect the size of the cheerleader’s chests. They are a carpenter’s dream-flat as a board, and never been nailed. I mean, they may have some wiggle, but there’s no jiggle…

    Total class move by Georgia having a “Pink Out” to honor the late wife of Arkansas St. head coach Blake Anderson. But, did the starters have to be in so long after a 34-0 first half? Fans are #1, coach………just outside the Top Ten…

    Memo to ESPN, FIX THE AUDIO!

    How about a little baseball? Last Wednesday, the Mets celebrated 9/11 (it was a way station for supplies, equipment, and medical facilities during a “break” from baseball), by having New Yorks finest in blue and firefighters by wearing special socks, one of a kind shoes that will be auctioned, etc. They won the game, 9-0. When a camera focused of the scoreboard showing the Mets line, it read 09 11 0 (for R H E), and put it on the main screen. People went nuts. You can’t make this stuff up….

    Which one of these doesn’t belong? Chris Petersen, David Shaw, Chip Kelly, Kyle Whittingham, Justin Wilcox, Kevin Sumlin, Mike Leach, Mario Christobal, Herm Edwards, and…..Clay Helton. See how easy that is? Team with the most students, most money (University of Spoiled Children is not a state school), and you end up with THAT? True, I didn’t list every coach (Ore.

    It appears that CORN does NOT affect the size of the cheerleader’s chests. They are a carpenter’s dream-flat as a board, and never been nailed. I mean, they may have some wiggle, but there’s no jiggle…

    Speaking of cheerleaders, did you see the Houston cheerleader take the fall after the sideline reporter took out her base? 

    Oh, FSU......how the trend of sucking continues. And they even received a horrendous call of roughing the passer. Did anyone else see that? We are heading toward wearing flags. Unless you are K State and freaking helicoptered Miss. State QB. 

    And horrendous...UCLA was giving tickets away and still couldn't get people to come. Go search for a picture of the crowd at the Rose Bowl. 
    Is it me or does these games that are suppose to be high scoring affairs turn out to be duds..Houston vs Wazoo, TTech vs Zona...
    Looking forward to a better week of football with Georgia vs ND, Auburn at TAM, Wisconsin vs UM.

    "The Citadel defeated Georgia Tech using the triple option which Georgia Tech abandoned this season.   That's like getting run over by a car you used to own"  



    Best "awareness" award goes to the Miss St QB who after doing his impression of a huey helicopter still had the sense to lay the ball out towards the line to gain. My head is still spinning just from watching him. 

    The newest phrase in college football; That was one Nar-DUZZI of a play call. 

    BIG10;

    Michigan St does not have the O-line to play Michigan St football, period. Better find someway else to score. Dantonio sneered at Herm at post game handshake, unsportsman like conduct but no flag.

    Purdue and Indiana without starting QB's don't come close to covering let alone winning.

    Maryland can't win without homerun plays, sound defenses always their demise.

    Ohio State appears to have a sound defense after they raided Michigan's coaching cupboard. Fields needs to stop overthrowing to be the complete package. And that schedule.

    Nebraska now labeled overrated at this point.

    Minnesota hopefully just playing to the level of their competition or it's going to be a long year for Gopher fans.

    Iowa chugging along as usual.

    Northwestern lost TJ Green week 1 and Hunter Johnson 12-25, 1td against UNLV. He will need to be better against the Sparty D.

    Illinois was...…...Illinois. What can I say?

    All those who jumped on the Terrapins and Nittany Lions last week will be jumping on Wisconsin and their #1 rated defense this week. Until I see some offense from Michigan that doesn't look offensive think I stay far away!

Well because they are michigan...  And because somehow without work discipline and diligence they would somehow be champions....... Hail to the victors. Ive never seen a team show so much disrespect to a service academy... Jimmy and his class!! Luckily hes a wolverine alum.

    I am pretty sure UVa just treated us to the first, and last, field-rush following a win over an unranked 1-1 team coming off an overtime win over Louisiana-Monroe. 

    The only thing better than Pat Narduzzi going for the FG down seven with 4:00 left, is his continuing to defend it after the fact.  "You have to score twice if you're going to win in regulation."  Well, yeah, but.......

    Good to see that the Vols are still the best team in the Greater Knoxville-Chattanooga Metropolitan Area, at least on most days.

    Eastern Michigan's QB can ball. 

    You have to admire Northwestern for keeping their concentration during a home game in which their fans were not out-numbered 5-1. 

    Virtually all of the later games which looked likely to suck moose balls did, in fact, suck moose balls. 

    Good to see a little guy like Alabama get a bunch of sketchy calls on road.  If you ever get a chance to see a Bama game in person, watch for the number of flags that are dropped and then picked up with no further explanation.  When I was at Vandy, a VU season ticket holder once referred to them a "Just in Case" flags, and the are hardly limited to little squads like Alabama.

    Note again to self...don't touch service academies for or against...Monken's DBag tactic of not disclosing Hopkins (not just the QB, the star QB)  shows that that despite their aspirations of the Top 25, they are are still old school "inferiority complex" army, and that is what they will always be...It was extremely unprofessional of Monken and Army. I am glad they covered.   I was on Army -17, but I will not play on or against a service academy team for the reminder of the season...

    He did the same move last year, I'm trying to find what game it was.  I was on them in that game too...  I want to say it was the Miami, OH game where they were favored around 7-8, then last few minutes the rumor got out and the line dropped.  They won by a point in OT

    Go to the 9:17 mark and watch what happens when the ref drops his hat indicating that the wr had run out of bounds on his route.  I say watch what happens...but in fact nothing happens other than the ref picking up his hat and allowing the play to count.  The result...a long pass play to set up Alabama first and goal inside Miss. State's 1 yard line.  In what eventually ended in a 7 point outcome. You get a great look on the replay of the refs hat laying on MSU's 30 yard line and the receding hair line of the ref watching the play unfold.

    Then in last years game there was more controversy.  A fumble by Alabama that was recovered by MSU was not reviewed, followed by a phantom holding call that negated an MSU touchdown.

    But don't fret, the SEC conducted a thorough review.

    Steve Robertson wrote a piece on a Miss. State fan page that summed up what would never be accepted OR allowed if the tables were turned and all of this had happened to an Alabama. 

    If the name Rob Skelton sounds familiar to long time fans of SEC football, it is likely for good reason. Rob is the son of former Alabama quarterback Bobby Skelton who eventually became a football official. The elder Skelton officiated two college football National Championships and Super Bowl XXIII. Rob simply followed in his father's footsteps and found a home calling SEC games as a side judge.

    Due to his connections with Alabama through his father and family, some fans may take issue with Skelton officiating games that involve the Crimson Tide. The league appears to have no issues with Skelton putting on a striped shirt, grabbing a yellow flag and making the big calls. 

    In a 2011 interview with Jon Solomon of AL.Com, SEC Coordinator of Officials Steve Shaw offered some assurances that the league would go out of their way to avoid any perceived conflicts of interests when it came to officials who may have connections with SEC member institutions. 

    Shaw is on record saying, "If there is any perceived conflict, we're just going to avoid it."

    The son of a former Crimson Tide player has likely yelled "Roll Tide" a time or two in his life. That is an assumption that most people would likely find reasonable. Skelton himself attended Jacksonville State, which gets him around the SEC policy regarding officials calling games that involve their alma mater. 

    According to SEC Associate Commissioner of Communications Herb Vincent, the league's policy regarding officiating conflicts of interest is as followed:

    "No SEC football official will officiate a game involving a university if the official:

    • is a graduate of or attended the university.

    • played with or for the head coach of the university.

    • has a spouse or child who is employed by or attends the university, for the period of time the spouse or child is employed by or attends the institution.

    • has any personal business association with the university or is personally a contributor to the university."

    To put it bluntly, there is no rule against Skelton or the descendants of any SEC player in any sport that prohibits them from officiating an athletic contest involving any team in the Southeastern Conference. Maybe there should be. 

    Calls like the ones that took place in Tuscaloosa in the game between Alabama and Mississippi State only feed these conspiracy theories. The fact of the matter is that Alabama does not need help from the officials to win football games. This season, the Tide has rarely been tested. It is important to remember that this is not an Alabama issue. It is an SEC issue. 

    The league has a responsibility to protect Alabama just like every other member school. I submit that having the sons of football alums calling Crimson Tide football games falls short of protecting the SEC's top football program. In fact, it opens Nick Saban's team to undeserved scrutiny. Alabama gets no say in who officiates their games. The best way to protect Alabama and the integrity of the league is to ensure that every team that takes the field gets a fair shot. 

    The Southeastern Conference is the greatest athletics league in all of college sports. SEC fans are among the most passionate in the country. Their commitment to the league and to their favorite programs must be met if not exceeded by the SEC's commitment to guarantee that officiating failures on the field and in the replay booth are not repeated.

    Oh, by the way.  The topless official, with the receding hairline in the first video who picked up his hat and let the play stand....Mr. Rob Skelton. I'm sure dad must have been proud.
