Well they did lose their QB for the season, so this week was prob closer tyan expected.

Meanwhile UCLA about to win 3rd in a row

They have Ohio State and Indiana next. Very good chance they’re 3-6 and have to win out just to get to a bowl game

Notre Dame likely high -- but I would never be too surprised by the voters favoring ND.

Oregon over Georgia.

If someone asked you to write a more ridiculous ending to a football game, you'd be hard pressed to match that. How much longer will they keep Norvell?

Epic loss by UMass.

UAB looking good against Memphis -- UConn better be ready.

UMass loss was cringeworthy.

Celebrated the win early - got an Unsportsmanlike penalty - only to lose the game.

This is on the UMass coach who needs refresher on what a minute and change with the ball, with opposing team with 3 timeouts, down by only 1 point means. No it’s not take a knee!

UMass tried to kneel then figured out it wasn’t going to work and ended up punting from their end zone Giving back the ball to Buffalo at the 50 yard line with a minute.

They also had a passing play????? Clock stopped. It was an Epic loss!

I got the top 7 right. Slightly off on 8-13, most notably BYU moving more than expected and ND less.

Wonder how losing is going to impact payouts in ACC for FSU/Clemson, does it only impact them if viewership goes down because they are so bad/mediocre?

Wonder how losing is going to impact payouts in ACC for FSU/Clemson, does it only impact them if viewership goes down because they are so bad/mediocre?

Only if they stop getting the big network/timeslots from ESPN. They benefit from passive watching on networks people have been trained to flip too. If FSU keeps getting an ESPN or ABC spot at 3:30 or 7:00 they'll get that benefit even if other teams are playing better (more deserving) or would make for more compelling matchups. It will take years for their poor performance to catch-up to the timeslots their past performance has garnered for them.
