    Texas Tech @ SMU is just kicking off now. A true freshman QB starting for Texans Tech.

    A walk-on at that too. Interesting to see how he'll get on.

    3-3 at the end of the first quarter. Poor standard, but enjoyable fare IMO. No huddle all quarter so it's being played at a great pace, some fun plays and a few fumbles too.

    Mayfield has started 11/15 for 80 yards. Mostly throwing bubble screens but has hit on a couple of longer throws on 3rd downs. Promising start for him.

    nothing pre 8pm blows me away , florida will be bit boring missing few starters and never an exciting team in past 2 years.

    kansas st upset last night lets see what we get tonight

    Ohio state already 16 points up on Buffalo. 2 possessions, 2TDs & 2 two point conversions.

    Heisman contender Braxton Miller looking sharp.

    He's after throwing an awful pick 6 just now. Poorly executed screen pass easily picked off.

    Texas A&M currently losing 14-7. Their D looks awful and they have some players suspended for the 1st half, and others for two games! Behind the scenes, they seem a mess.

    All set for Johnny Football to come in the 2nd half and turn it around.


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,717 ✭✭✭polaris68


    TAMU defence very poor against the run.

    Smith will be a beast, insane coverage skills for a LB. I'm not sure how he'll hold up against the run and getting of blocks this year, but in a few years this guy will be in the first round of the draft imo.

    Watch out for Freshman WR Corey Robinson in the redzone. Hope we get a look at Greg Bryant at RB as well.

    It's only Temple, but I'm still so hyped for this game.

    Penn State - Syracuse is mad. 3 turnovers in the space of 4 or 5 plays.

    I see Notre Dame special teams are still sucking ass


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,717 ✭✭✭polaris68


    The new season good vibes are well dampened.

    This looks more like the 2011 Notre Dame team.

    Nix is having a nightmare.
