There are already a bunch of gofundme accounts set up to buy out Willie Taggat’s contract and fire his butt. Bobby Bowden’s retirement was bad enough. Losing Jimbo to Texas A&M so soon after has resulted in FSU hiring David Chappell’s “crack addict” character as head coach.
Thanks for including the Boise State mention in your summary. I was at the game and really enjoyed how my OSU Cowboys handled the Broncos, especially with the two BSU punt attempts that turned into quick points. It is such a bonus when special teams add points to the game.
How ‘bout them Hawks !
Speaking of the Big Ten and all.
It comes down to this: Division 1 FBS college football is threatening to turn into a regional sport dominated by teams in the southeastern USA. Alabama, Georgia and Clemson are already pulling away from the rest of the pack, and Miami with Mark Richt as head coach is within 1-2 recruiting classes from being really dominant again.
I six weeks six weeks, count them, that’s only plus 3 games per team, things will look very differently. This may well be another setup for the bowl season where the B1G improves on the field, but plays all the week sister’s in the bowls and cleans up. There is a lot of turnover on those teams with poor showings. As for Wisky, they were due. If this is an honest analysis of the B1G, some conferences are one team wonders year after year.... ACC, B12, and while the SEC has had its run, parity is just around the corner. The real monster in the room of college football are those voters who put their own conference footprints ahead of an objective ranking for Awards and Teams. This article claims objectivity, but with sometimes petty examples that would not be kind should he turn his sightfulness towards the ACC - as Big Ten Homer-myself, ACC football has sucked since the 70’s when I got here. The Pac 12 and Big 12 play a different type of game compared to the Buckeyes, the Tide, or Tigers, or as we have just seen the Horned Frogs. There is still only Oklahoma and two or there other teams that can make the playoff. Week one of the season puts this article into perspective when the TV commentators were saying Clemson and Bama’s SOS could become an issue based on their conference projections. In the end, the BCS will never have 4 surprise teams - the voters will always give the Old Bloods the preference, the bias, the vote.
Just wanted to point out that Fresno State beat UCLA 38-14, on the road.
The G6 teams to watch is UCF or USF.
As to BIG 10(14) football, aside from OSU and maybe PSU, the AD’s and other powers that be do not really worry about on field performance as long as the money from television contracts keeps flowing. The BIG and PAC 12 are likely to be left out of the CFP again.
Troy seems to finally have their all new backfield sorted out.
