Nice touch of class by FSU in their big blowout over Murray St. Up 60 points with a minute left in the game and at the 1 yard line they call a Timeout to set up a play to punch in another TD and run up the score. Stay classy there FSU!
Pittsburgh goes down to Youngstown St, PSU loses to Ohio(mild upset there with all the off field distractions that went on leading up to this game) and Texas St over Houston.
Surprised at Texas struggling with Wyoming, Florida and Arkansas struggled but won and Maryland beat William & Mary on a last minute TD 7-6.
The big games, Bama showed they may have a dynasty well intact. USC looked pretty good as did Oregon. Oregon though didn't look so hot with their backups in there. They aren't a very deep team it means. LSU looked pretty solid and have a tough SOB at QB.
Ohio has 3 prominent "okies" on their team. One of their wide recievers that caught a TD pass, Donte Foster from Guthrie, running back Beau Blankenship from Norman North and Tyler Tettleton from Norman North also. He and Beau were teamates and Tyler's dad is Mickey Tettleton who was a catcher in the Major Leagues for a while.
I read today that the offensive coordinator at Houston quit after Saturday's debacle.
OU was pitiful. The defense worked as advertised we just have to get the offense on the same page. The defense pitched a shutout and I think I read that they only allowed 55yds of offense to UTEP. UTEP's TD came off of a blocked punt. Landry spent more time picking himself up off of the carpet than throwing passes it seemed. The recievers look really good, now if them and the QB can just get on the same page. The Juco transfer, Williams looks REALLY good. I don't know if there is such a thing but we seem to have WAY to many RB's. I'll be at the Florida A&M game, hopefully it won't turn into another Savannah State.
Bama looks like an NFL team. They looked unbeatable, ALL YEAR! I love their freshman RB, he reminds me of Adrian Peterson when he was a freshman, just about the same size and running style.
Glad it's finally here, now if we can just get the weather to cooperate, it is 104 here today! ICK!
