It is here....the day we all have been waiting for since mid January. Personally a top 2 day of the year for me (the other being the first day in the fall where it is actually cool enough outside to keep my house open and be a little chilly at night).

3:00 PM No. 21 Texas A&M at No. 9 South Carolina SEC Network

4:00 PM Wake Forest at Louisiana-Monroe ESPNU

4:00 PM Eastern Illinois at Minnesota BTN

Anyone have any thoughts on WSU -7.5 at home against Rutgers?

I'd feel better about that line if it weren't summer in Pullman.

I haven't really paid attention to the lines since I'm not doing a pick em this year but I do remember seeing this one and not knowing what to think about the game.

15 minutes till real live big time college football!!

Bruins01 · Post by **Bruins01** » Thu Aug 28, 2014 3:06 pm

Should be 7-0 A&M already. Glad I canceled my bet at the last second....

I'm kinda pissed that the headliner game is NOT on ESPN.

I get it, but still.

No I don't have the SECN. I have too many weekends away for work between now and dec, so I didn't reup my cable package and multisport pack. May need to reevaluate this decision.

I know, right. ESPN is going to make Hill the second coming of Tebow/Manziel. Hill is having all day to throw (zero pressure, like 2012 Arizona like) and wide open receivers.

azgreg · Post by **azgreg** » Thu Aug 28, 2014 4:42 pm

First game on the SEC network and everybody can see it. Pac-12 network on for over 2 years and nobody east of Disneyland has a chance.

azgreg · Post by **azgreg** » Thu Aug 28, 2014 4:42 pm

Looks like the old ball coach is in some trouble.

scumdevils86 · Post by **scumdevils86** » Thu Aug 28, 2014 4:46 pm

400 yards and 31 points in the first half against a top 10 SEC team defense.

toughest league in america.

Bruins01 · Post by **Bruins01** » Thu Aug 28, 2014 5:04 pm

Boise St. wearing their Syracuse knockoff jerseys for this game.

azgreg · Post by **azgreg** » Thu Aug 28, 2014 5:22 pm

Helmets look cool though.

ASUHATER! · Post by **ASUHATER!** » Thu Aug 28, 2014 5:26 pm

SEC SEC SEC top of the line defense in south carolina already has given up 460 yards and 38 points at home to a texas a&m qb in his first ever start...and there's still 1 1/2 quarters to go.

Bruins01 · Post by **Bruins01** » Thu Aug 28, 2014 5:27 pm

Let's just all be thankful that Kevin Sumlin is not at USC.

Should we start a Kyle Allen transfer countdown? Hill is just a sophomore.

And Kyler Murray coming in.

Trent Dilfer convinced Kyle Allen to pick TAMU over UCLA because at UCLA, Asiantii Woulard would have been a class ahead of him. Allen should sue.

ASUHATER! · Post by **ASUHATER!** » Thu Aug 28, 2014 5:55 pm

where could allen end up then? hill has that job locked down this year and next year at least.

Bruins01 · Post by **Bruins01** » Thu Aug 28, 2014 6:15 pm

ASU is a pretty good bet. But Kelly is a senior, so there's a gap there and a chance for someone who is eligible next year to lock down the spot, leaving Allen out in the cold yet again.

azgreg · Post by **azgreg** » Thu Aug 28, 2014 8:23 pm

Nice run Rutgers.

cordera89 · Post by **cordera89** » Thu Aug 28, 2014 8:30 pm

Is anyone watching the Rutgers vs. wash state game. if so it 21 to 10 in second Qtr.

There winning 17 to 0 last I check.

I meant ASU is a good bet for where Kyle Allen might land.

Tempe 21 - Vandy 7 at halftime.

Also WTF is with Vandy's 11pm local time kick off? On the Thursday!

ASUHATER! · Post by **ASUHATER!** » Thu Aug 28, 2014 10:17 pm

It was a 915 kickoff but there was lightning in the area that delayed the game until almost 11. Game won't end until after 2 am there.

TONS of sharp money came in on Temple. The line moved from Temple +17 all the way to +8 or so before kickoff. This is not as shocking a result as it looks. Temple has a good veteran team.

ASUHATER! · Post by **ASUHATER!** » Thu Aug 28, 2014 10:37 pm

34-7 temple. Vanderbilt is back to being Vanderbilt now that Franklin is gone. They had their back to back 9 win seasons and now back to 3 a year.

Bruins01 · Post by **Bruins01** » Fri Aug 29, 2014 9:53 am

Let's also remember that Vanderbilt's new offensive coordinator is... Karl Dorrell.

In retrospect, Temple was the best moneyline bet we will see all season.

Our next week opponent is on USPNU vs Houston now.

OSUCat · Post by **OSUCat** » Fri Aug 29, 2014 7:04 pm

Just as a point of reference. Paul Myerberg from the USA Today college football countdown had UTSA at 60 and Huston at 38. I hope they can pull it out, it will look better when Arizona wins =).

They are playing in Ireland against ucf. Shamrock series. For some reason they decided the game should start at 130 pm in Dublin.

I forgot about the Ireland game. That makes the start time even stranger if it's only 1:30 there.

utsa is going to a much much tougher game. very experienced and hungry defense that is pretty good. 19 senior starters, sold out road game in a dome...we have to bring our A game for sure.
