31 point loss for Oregon State. CSU was hyped up in their new stadium but it looks like we'll have a competitor for the basement of the conference.

Charlie Strong at South Florida looks just as ineffective there as he was at Texas. His squad is down 10-0 to San Jose St

I know it's just Rice but Stanford's defense looks suffocating.

Hard to say, Rice was bad, very bad. The first offebse play was a illegal procedure followed by false start. It was one of the worse opening drives I have ever seen.

Yeah I was watching that. I think Rice's QB is a freshman. First game ever and you're 8j Australia against a top 15 Stanford team who just marched down the field and scored on you to open the game.

Greg Schiano is tOSU's d-coordinator? His career trajectory is in direct opposition to Dirk Koetter's.

Watched every play and ASU should already be worried:

ASU's OL looked every bit as awful as any OL the Devils had under Erickson/Gregg Smith.

Manny is a QB purgatory at best, never playing well enough to will an offense, but never playing so badly that it's worth risking the inexperienced backups.

The defense was again gassed by the 4th quarter, something that left the team exposed to another big comeback, because once again CTG didn't implement any sort of substitional rotations.

Looks like more of the same from the waning Graham era.

I watched the first half and only parts of the second. At first I thought the Scum Devils were just asleep and not taking the Aggies seriously. Then I realized ASU just isn't very good. They put 549 yards on their revamped defense and almost 400 through the air. The experts whoever they are think ASU is going to be better than UofA. Holy Mother of God I hope not.

From the get to it seems like Kiffin was at FAU just to have a job, not because he wanted to be there. Like the guy who's forced to work a second job at pizza hut just to pay the bills. He just doesn't seem to care about FAU or anything.

Texas has a pick 6 and a blocked FG returned for a touchdown for their 14 points. Zilch on offense.

I am really confused by what constitutes targeting. Seems like both the potential targeting calls in the Mich/Fla game were targeting by the letter of the law. However, both were deemed legal hits.

Western Michigan tied with USC at the half. I know WMU was really good last year but they lost a lot of players and their head coach.
