Week 6: non-UConn

[Vowelguy]

23 BYU over WV 38-24
Eers 2-4

Delaware lost to Wky 27-24

 

[Vowelguy]

Bloodbath of the day:
PennSt, fresh off another crushing loss, at 0-4 UCLA
If I’m reading the odds right, Nittanies are -25 with o/u 48. I think both are too low.

Delaware had that game won, but fumbled at the goal line. WKU drove the distance of the field and that was the difference.

From a UConn perspective, WKU got the stop our defense couldn't get.

And then of course, the Delaware kicker missed a game tying field goal at the end.

Anyone watching BC/Pitt?

Pitt backup freshman QB looks very good. Pitt defense looks very good also. Lonergan for BC is struggling a bit…but it feels like the Pitt defense is causing him trouble more than he is having a bad game. BC defense looks a bit iffy. Pitt converted a 1st and 35. But…it’s still early.

Love seeing UNC getting smoked at home against Clemson. 28-3 after first quarter. Gotta wonder if BB will stick around long enough to turn this around. Reading on the Athletic that the belief is that they had incredible player turnover…and whiffed on a lot of transfers. They have a good recruiting class next year…but we will see if he can hold that class.

Watching Clemson at UNC, score is 35-3 and UNC has about 52 total yards at the 2 min mark in the 2nd quarter. Just wow.

Also watching Air Force at Navy. Got a special spot in my heart for Navy as I wanted to go to Annapolis for undergrad.

Assuming BC-Pitt continues the way it is now, BC becomes a must-win game. Nightmarish first half for the birds.

Referring to the game or Belichiks tenure as coach?

After his first year, Eli Holstein was being talked about as the next Kenny Pickett (Pitt version). Man, he went downhill last two years. This new kid looks good with surprising game field. He doesn't panic in the pocket, seems to read his progressions well, can run effectively when there's an opening or pressure. Only thing I see a little weakness in is leading his receivers better, but other than that, kid is playing like a junior or senior.

BC’s mental state might be an issue….will they be amped to get a win that may make them bowl eligible? Or will they be deflated with a 1-5 record after getting smoked by Clemson.

Looking at their schedule..they only probably have 1 game other than UConn they will be favored…and that’s at Cuse….and that may change if Cuse’s backup QB gets better.

The only interesting close early game is Iowa ST/Cincy. Iowa St is 5-0 and ranked 14th and a 1.5 pt underdog? Line setters knows more than pollsters. Cincy is up late.

Ball St in an interesting one with Ohio. Ohio has beaten WVU. Ball St up with 14 seconds left but Ohio moving the ball

I just hope this doesn’t go into overtime and disrupt the UConn game.

Ball St hangs on to win…good for them.

UCLA up on Penn St 13-0 early. Lol

 

[Vowelguy]

UCLA up on Penn St 13-0 early. Lol

10-7 early in the 2nd

So much for the blowout I expected.

 

[Vowelguy]

Holy Cow 24-7 Bruins

Miami has their best team in a decade...

Could this be the year?

After proclaiming when they entered in 2004 that ACC meant the All Canes Conference...will they finally win the championship?

 

[Redding Husky]

Halftime: SMU 24, Syracuse 3. Is Coach Fran going to make his players run sprints in Dallas after the game? What an ass.

They just aren’t the same team without Angeli.
