Interested to see if OU will bounce back from the K-State upset against another sneaky tough team.

Couple major games in SEC, that everyone will be watching. ACC and Big XII mostly sleep walking.
 

BYU thrashing Skip Holtz and La Tech 35-7. Crazy how scheduling an opponent in 2020 for some schools is a week to week process. This game wasn’t planned until 2 weeks ago.

I said it a week ago....and I'll say it again. BYU looks like a machine. They are steamrolling their opponents. Even if they aren't playing P5 opponents.....Navy, Troy, LA Tech......not teams that you expect to roll by 40-50 points.
 

Most likely chance for a minor upset is Auburn over Georgia

I also think Boston college has a chance over North Carolina and Iowa state has a chance over Oklahoma.
Id like to be at least 1/3 on these guesses
 


Spielman has been mostly bottled up by Texas so far.
 


He's been out there. Just hasn't done a whole lot.
 





I overheard Jerry arguing with Patterson about moving Spielman to DB.

They are an absolute disaster. A friend of mine, who is a Canes fan, said that a few of FSU's best players opted out after the game last week.
 


I can't decide if Kansas St. is just a really physical, hard-hitting team...or if they're simply dirty. They leave their feet an awful lot to deliver blows.

Same. I thought that there could have been a COUPLE of targeting penalties called on them just in the past couple of drives.
 


Damn.....Georgia is demolishing Auburn. Already 24-0 halfway through the 2nd quarter. :(
 

Two former Gopher QB commits connect in the Virginia Clemson game. Brennan Armstrong to Tony Poljan who is now a tight end after spending a couple years as QB at Central Michigan.

Looks like you got your wish with Iowa State and Oklahoma
 

2 in the CFP for SEC. Big 12 already guarnteed 0. ACC 1. Down to OSU, Gophers and Oregon for the last spot.

You forgot your favorite G5 team, GSU:(
 



You can count on this every year, Texas and Nebraska being overrated and celebrated by the media until they play their first game!

I’m still confused how media thinks we go 6-2 with a loss to Nebraska as one of them?! Nebraska will be lucky to win a game or two
 

I feel like Nebraska would be more dangerous this year if we played a typical schedule.
If they went 3-0 and then beat northwestern and Illinois...they’d have some confidence

they have the talent where playing with confidence would make them dangerous

It’ll be interesting to watch how they do in the first 4 games...but what will be more interesting is if Nebraska is 0-4 how do they play during the Illinois game.
