Red River this weekend and both Texas and OU are looking in good form. Venables has the defense looking much better this year compared to last. Texas will be a good test for it.

Alabama and Texas A&M could be a good one too. A&M looking better with Max Johnson at qb.

Good test for Maryland as well against OSU to see just how good they are.

Same for UK against UGA. UK ran roughshod over UF last week, can they bully UGA? I'm skeptical but it's a big test, especially on the road.

Brohm is having a good start going back home to Louisville, ND will be a good test for them as well.



 
Boston is Amy's big home game - pricey tickets and tailgate city.
Weather sound bad so I'm glad I'm not going
Last time I saw Army play Boston at Home, Army was still awful but pulled an upset.
All cadets got privileges - they could close doors (nap friendly) and wastebaskets didn't have to be clean. Joy.
 
Ok St up 10-7 on KSU and KSU just made goal line stand and blocked a chip shot FG too to keep it as is.

Nebraska up 3-0 on Illinois but Illinois just recovered a punt that possibly bounced off a Nebraska player…under review…hard to tell if it bounced off Illinois or Nebraska player
 
TD Nebraska. 10-0

Nebraska recovers the KO when Illinois doesn’t field the ball.

Next play QB run for a TD 17-0

lol Illinois almost botched another KO.

I’ll be surprised if Illinois has enough offense to come back from 17-0 even with more than a half to play. Tony White’s defense is pretty solid too.

Jinx in effect lol…Illinois drives down the field for a TD 17-7

Missed FG by Nebraska. Wow, they had great field position after that punt and didn't score.
 
Looks like it’s going to be tough to come back now for KSU. Howard threw an INT. 3:30 left and KSU has 3 timeouts.
 
I hate analytics. You go by the computer geeks, you should basically never punt or kick field goals.
I’m okay using it at times but I think you have to use it in tandem with feel/rhythm of the game and risk/reward.
 
Oh well that’s it for KSU, drive stopped.

Seems like the B12 is back to a race between OU and Texas like the “old days”
 
This game is like a battle of which team wants to give it away the most. Fumbles, missed field goals . . . . and Boom, again, another turnover, this time by Illinois.

Nebraska with the interception. Also, Nebraska with the personal foul after the play.
