Good morning! It’s a Fall (officially, now someone tell the weather) Saturday full of college football. Hopes are that beginning at noon today the Nerds will get the Deacon Blues… Can the Pitboss get right against a struggling Notre Dame team today? What does the Laner have up his sleeve for the bayou Tigers this afternoon? Can the Aggies put the WarTiglePlainsmenEagles into a tailspin today? (What’s that? If Auburn wins or loses, they’re going to claim another national championship, film at eleven.) We close out the day with 2 Top 20 matchups at 7:30. Here is your guide to today’s festivities
This post is your open thread for comments, bloviations or shooting the breeze throughout today’s games. Please keep your hands and feet inside for the duration. Any loose change under the couch cushions belongs to me.
Go Dawgs!
From a rankings perspective, the Oregon-Pedo State game ought to be the big draw, but I bet our game gets more viewers.
GT seems to have regressed to the mean (so far against WF today).
So much for Arkansas. I was really hoping ND would be 0-2 vs SEC this year.
Arkansas is not good. I thought they would have a shot at home, but their defense is offensive.
So the other prime time tilt between ranked teams features the 118th SOS versus the 136th SOS. The B1G needs to forever shut the fuck up.
Looks like the Pitt boss is done in Fayetteville. I wish we could get him back here but I suspect he’ll retire with buyout bucks when the deed is done. Great guy but you gotta play defense in this league.
I’m sure we’ve got an analyst position available, and he could still have time to enjoy the $$$ Arky has and will pay him.
Come back and enjoy Athens, Pitt Boss
These refs are deeply invested in giving GT the win today.
Yeah..WF is getting royalty hosed by the refs..It’s just ridiculous! Similar to what the refs did to the Barners against OK last week. That offside no call should get a line judge fired.
This is the (well…one) problem with the CFP system. Conferences are protecting any team that looks like it could make the playoffs. I fully believe they are trying to keep GT alive since Clemson obviously sucks.. $$$$$ over integrity.
WF clearly had them beat with the offsides that wasn’t called and it could be seen from Neptune.
I know it’s not, but I don’t understand why offsides isn’t reviewable. That’s not a subjective call. Tech was obviously offsides. That call stole the game from Wake.
[Tyler Simmons nods in agreement.]
Wake was so screwed by that crew!
– obvious miss on the no call on the offside . Game over if call is made
– bs PI on 3rd to keep the Tech drive alive
– gained 9 1/2 on 3rd and 10, short of likely FG range. Refs give the first and the get into range. (And it was reviewed!)
Total screw job
With FSU and Clemmons looking like crap, the ACC needed to nurse the nerds through that game…a second team in the CFP is at stake for them.
Freeze looks like his head is gonna explode.
Go Illini!!!
I’ve seen this movie. Both teams look fairly equal but one executes just a little better. As predicted we are stopping the run but our DBs getting abused. Williams is the youngest receiver to break a nail on a long TD drop. 5 for 5 on 3rd downs. Hand me the Pepto.
Oops. Wrong thread.
