4. Warshington State (0-1)

What was it Crash Davis said to Nuke Laloosh? "Your shower shoes have fungus on them. You'll never make it to the bigs with fungus on your shower shoes. Think classy, you'll be classy. If you win 20 in the show, you can let the fungus grow back and the press'll think you're colorful. Until you win 20 in the show, however, it means you are a slob." Somewhere someone is saying to Mike Leach, "Your opening weekends have FCS losses on them. You'll never make it to the bigs with FCS losses on your opening weekends. Think classy, you'll be classy. If you beat an FCS team on opening weekend, you can talk like a pirate and quote Geronimo and the press will think you're colorful. Until you beat an FCS team on opening weekend, however, it means you are weird."

Maybe you heard, but the conference had an interesting weekend. In all fairness, five of the seven teams that lost were arguably the five teams expected to be at the bottom of the league standings and the ones really locked down the year's first Covered Fifth Spot. But it wasn't so much that they lost. It was how they lost. Just like it wasn't so much that the other teams won. It was how they won. With the exception of Alabama, the victorious teams and their fans all looked like they were playing and watching their games after a colony of fire ants had been dumped into their pants.

It's feast of famine for Northwestern. They either win 10 or just get bowl eligible.
 

I always enjoy the bottom 10 (more-so now that the Gophers aren't threatening to make an appearance). Pretty good stuff for week one.

The Kansas line is an instant classic:

...when the small group of students who actually bothered to show up for the game decided to storm the field, the public address announcer publicly shamed them by declaring over the loudspeakers: "This is a new era of Kansas football, an era in which you should expect to win." He could have saved oxygen by just saying "Get off my lawn!"

I also liked the North Texas Chuck-E-Cheese line.
 



It seems like Iowa State is below .500 against UNI over the years.

And yet give Iowa a hell of a game every year too.

Easy to get up for the game when you are playing for the coolest treasure in all of college football......the Cy-Hawk Trophy.
 

I was very surprised to see Washington state lose to an FCS. I was and am a big proponent of mike leach. I think they still win 6+ games.

It will be harder for leach to break through to the top 10 without the Texas pipeline.

At Wash St, I don't think it's just the lack of a Texas pipeline that will hold them back
