Georgia will rightfully be No. 1. I personally think OSU is the best team in the country, but winning in Tuscaloosa is better than anything the Buckeyes have done to this point.

Kentucky just won back-to-back overtime games by the exact same score.

Lincoln Riley won a big road game? I would not want to be Matt Campbell right now.

The Sox lost this series in the 6th inning Thursday night. Never recovered, and then Jose Ramirez drove the stake through them tonight.

And the lockout has begun. OK, maybe not. But if the WS isn't Dodgers/Rays now, then 🤮

On a positive note, a whole lot of babies with names such as Caleb, DJ, Colston, and Ben (to name a few) are being born in Chicago this weekend. IYKYK.

Nope. All the schools request preferred time slots for their HC games. This is why Iowa's is rarely at night.

Monday, and it will either be 2:30/3 or at night because it's Minnesota's homecoming.

Might as well let both teams wear home unis like Bama and Tennessee are going to do next week.

Red River is probably the coolest visual every year. As close to 50/50 as it gets, with one end completely burnt orange and the other completely crimson.

Agreed.

And I say "preferably in Philly" for Army/Navy because it's the closest to equidistant between West Point and Annapolis, plus it's where the most Army/Navy games have been played.

The only three palatable neutral site games: - Red River - WLOCP (when in Jacksonville, which it isn't this year or next) - Army/Navy (preferably when in Philly) All other games are better when one of the teams is actually at home.

The crazy part of this stat is that Nebraska's last win over a ranked team came when Mike Riley coached the Huskers.

Nebraska might have a chance to do a whole bunch of laterals at the end.

Should still win that game when you talk like that.

Indiana is one first down away from surviving in Lincoln.

One week after bitching about not being ranked and then getting ranked, Pat Narduzzi loses at home to Bill Belichick.

All of Indiana’s receivers were open on that 4th down touchdown pass.

Oh, he's short of the 1st down mark? Never mind then.

Pitt got lucky. The forearm is down before UNC ripped the ball out.

I'm going to regret my Mizzou pick, aren't I? A&M was tempting, too.

My running joke was always that Indiana was the football version of Nebraska basketball and Nebraska was the football version of Indiana basketball. But now that the Hoosiers have won a football natty, I'm not sure this applies any longer.

I don't expect it, but MHJ going to Chicago after all the people who wanted him as part of "The Haul" instead of taking Caleb at 1 would be hilarious.
