Week 10 CFB

[nwhoopfan]

Miami looked to be in big trouble against Duke down 28-17. Then the Canes scored 3 TDs in almost no time at all. Up 39-31, still most of Q4 left.

Watched most of Boise St. game last night. San Diego St. completely sold out trying to stop Jeanty. They shut him down in the first half, but they left everything else wide open and the Broncos scored 35 in the first half. He still ended up w/ around 140 yards and BSU rolled 56-24.

Hadn't seen a week 10 thread posted yet. Delete or merge if one exists.

We're a Pitt household due to wife, so other than our respective alma maters winning, there aren't too many things that bring joy than watching Penn St. lose another big game at home.

tOSU's goal line stand was sweet, but damn, whomever is calling PSU's offensive isn't very good. You'd think one of those four plays would've had some QB motion.

I don't like them, but have to give Ohio State credit for overcoming the early 10-0 hole in that environment.

Something had to give. Going in Ohio St had lost 7 straight to top 5 teams and Penn St had lost 10 straight to top 5 teams.

San Diego St. absolutely sold out trying to stop Jeanty from Boise St. They succeeded at that...for a half...while letting the rest of the offense do whatever it wanted. 35-10 Broncos at the half, cruised to a 56-24 win, and Jeanty still finished w/ around 140 yards.

Vandy is taking down Auburn. Don't know last time Vanderbilt beat both Auburn and Alabama, in same season, but I don't recall it happening.

Surprisingly, this win ties the all-time series between the two teams at 22-22-1.

UAB 45 Tulsa 0 at the half in Birmingham

UAB is killing Tulsa. Our game next week may be tougher than we think.

 

[Purple Stein]

Well, Maine was up 7-0 on Oklahoma. And then they...weren't.

UAB is killing Tulsa. Our game next week may be tougher than we think.

With the exception of maybe the top 25 teams (not always though), most teams are good enough to beat teams that are slightly better than they are, and are bad enough to be beaten by teams that are slightly worse than they are. Matchups, player health, schemes, and a little luck (or refs) determine the outcome.

With the exception of maybe Merrimack, there is no "free win" for us. There aren't a lot of free wins for most teams. Hell, Vanderbilt wasn't a free win for Alabama either...

KITNA any relation to Jon Kitna 14 year NFL QB

Not good for us. They will be hypersensitive about adding for football.

 

[Vowelguy]

Disaster day in B12 as Iowa st and Kanst lose.

 

[DoctorWho85]

Georgia is not that good or Florida is a lot better than we thought. The playoffs are going to be really fun this year. I'll be rooting for Indiana. Really hope they disrupt the scene.

 

[AllHusky]

Yes, father and son.

Figured, Dad went to that powerhouse Central Washington! Talent can be anywhere.

Just gotta keep winning, even if it's only against a bunch of jv teams like Liberty last season

I was at CWU while Jon was there. Didn't know him, but saw him around campus. He was an intimidating looking dude.
