It Could Be Worse
-
KU could have lost to an FCS school this week like…
Washington
Vanderbilt
UConn
Iowa State and Oklahoma State struggled with FCS comp as well, albeit stronger teams.
Georgia Tech with a rough loss to NIU and Illinois might lose to UTSA (!!!)
One thing is for sure, college football is back and I love it.
-
Yes, indeed. Tulane showed up to play OU today, but considering all that happened down their way this past week I knew that they would.
-
Was cheering hard for Tulane. Big fan of them. Great university, great city, big fan of Willie Fritz.
-
There were alot of upsets, no doubt. This was really not an upset but I’ll say it anyway, Clemson is not going to the playoff. Infact, after watching the Notre Dame - FSU game, though the Seminoles lost, people had better start paying attention to them in the ACC.

I tell ya what my friend. Georgia looked REALLY good. I mean REALLY good. - -very quick , fast their linebacking core is SWEET. - - I think they had Clemson frustrated , looked to me as Georgia was in control of that game for the most part - -now didn’t say all but I just thought Georgia was the better team

True. But Georgia did not scare me offensively. I still think that the four best teams are Alabama, Oklahoma, A&M and - wait for it… - Cincinnati… I think that FSU is going to win the ACC, and they aren’t even rated right now.

Diehard FSU fan here, We are not winning the ACC

You don’t think? I believe that they will be very competitive. UNC will be tough too, maybe they will win the ACC? But imo Clemson has serious flaws offensively. I wasn’t too impressed with Georgia from the SEC either. FSU can score touchdowns. Notre Dame is not a chump defensively.
-
I think 2 years from having that conversation (and that’s assuming the way they played against ND was the stepping stone). Schedule is brutal, will be lucky to get 6 wins. I’m praying for a bowl game to keep a fantastic recruiting class together. I believe in Norvell and this staff they just need better players. Playing 2 QB’s because frankly one can’t throw and the other can’t stay healthy (due to catastrophic injury years back). Talent deficiency at OL and LB. WR is a big concern, we just lack playmakers. They wore ND down in the 2nd half but imagine first game had something to do with that.
That ND game was the perfect storm to play well. Home game with big crowd with a ton of recruits there. Came out of camp pretty healthy. ND was breaking in new QB among other things. Was happy with the level of play but given how the past 5-6 years have gone its best to keep it 100 for now.
Clemson gave up 10 points and 3 on defense to a Top 10 team. They are still the top dog until anyone in the ACC steps up. UNC looked brutal against Virginia Tech and while they have a very good QB he lost almost every single skill position player that helped him last season. ACC is a mess if you ask me. NC St could be a darkhorse , Va Tech as well. Miami was humiliated by Bama.
-
@BeddieKU23 Yeah, Miami got roasted, no doubt. Clemson will probably after the Georgia loss have to go to a more rpo offense.
-
People out here are still in shock after Washington lost at home to Montana…first loss to the Griz in over a century. Offense scored first, then played possum the rest of the game. Defense played okay but got worn down by the 4th quarter.
Everybody was looking ahead to the game at Michigan this weekend. Now I’m surprised that the spread is only a touchdown.
The Huskies went into the season with a national ranking and a chance to contend for the Pac-12 title. Fans not so sure of that now.

Michigan is going to beat Washington, mark it. The Pac sucks.

KSU officially on upset watch
-
Ohio State goes down! Thank you, college football gods. I will (for now lol) stand by my playoff picks - Alabama, Oklahoma, A&M and Cincinnati.

Good call. Also, condolences.

Pray for FSU football.

Okay, FSU probably won’t win the ACC this year, but they will beat Miami and go to a bowl. How’s that? More likely than not a 6 win way out back bowl, but hey it’s still a bowl

They will lose by 3 touchdowns to Miami, possibly more.

@BeddieKU23 I think the crazier thing is what this says about Notre Dame…
If you’re a Notre Dame fan you should be worried.

Notre Dame isn’t great by any means but they are a solid team. They caught FSU’s super bowl and survived on the road. College Football can be strange which makes it exciting at times. I bet this same ND team could beat FSU by 4+ touchdowns if they played each other again this week. We might win 1 game this year and that’s a stretch at this point. I have never seen it so hopeless in 30 years of watching them. I guess this is what KU football fans deal with on the reg.
