The irony is that (at least in the first quarter plus) tOSU is beating the hell out of Oklahoma by doing exactly what Oklahoma can do but chooses not to. Been this way for years.
Game is young yet tho.

The good news is that (assuming Ohio State holds up) the Big Ten has 3 very legitimate playoff worthy teams.
The bad news is that my Badgers play them all in a row starting next Saturday.

I don't see anyone other than maybe Louisville or Houston going undefeated this season and those are suspect.
Even Bama seems vulnerable.
And to a certain extent that is perhaps the way it should be. About time they started a stronger front-loading of schedules.

The Irish are all done..... Maybe BUT "not so fast my friend!" For the sake of their season I'm fine with that.....BUT for the sake of today's picking I sure hope not. 36-28 with an eternity left! well that might be it....dangit!

MSU went conservative after they got up big. They pretty much always do that. Game wasn't nearly as close as the score. MSU O line was pushing ND D line around at will most of the game......

These days any team taking that position is just setting themselves up for failure. I'll take Louisville's position today any second of the game.

I agree. MSU is famous for it. Sometimes it backfires....

I am not sure if you give him enough credit Bill. The guy has done really well. He just isn't flashy at all, and doesn't ever have much to say. Although, it does seem that every time they get up in a game, they relax and try to blow it.
O'Connor has started exactly 2 road games. With victories at Ohio St. and now ND. Pretty impressive.
Watch out for Donny Corley. He is the real deal. Michigan wanted him bad. He almost took Lavert Hill to State with him. They are best buds from Detroit King........

Georgia pulled it off with help from Mizzou, coughing the ball up 5 times.
Georgia went up by one after a 4th and 10 converts to a touch down with a couple minutes left on the clock. Mizzou subsequently coughed up their 5th turnover ending the game.
Eason is going to continue to improve. The kid is a beast. The line needs to improve on both sides of the ball if they are going to have any shot at a SEC east title.

Not totally sold on TN as I thought. Figured them to be more convincing by now. GA and FL appear to be the teams to beat in the East.
SC threw in a new QB today who did make a difference but they still have a ways to go. Their defense seems to be carrying the water for now.

Yeah, Corley is the real deal.........I saw him last year in the playoff & he was phenomenal. The game was nowhere as close as the score.......MSU beat them up pretty good. State just pretty much refuses to blitz & Kizer had all day to throw in the 2nd half when they laid back.........pretty much SOP for D'Antonio. That's what's so frustrating about him. You surely don't have to worry about that with Harbaugh.......he will blitz a LOT. And then blitz some more. Good comeback for the Wolves today.......Colorado played them tougher than I expected for a while. MM
