OT: NCAA College Football Games Thread 11/13
- Thread starter rutgersguy1
- Start date
If I’m Kansas I might for for two if they can score a TD on the first OT. They seem kind of spent.
Oh wow they got it thought he was in danger and they wouldn’t get it when he got flushed out of the pocket. Nice win.
57-56
EDIT: 56 game road losing streak snapped...sorry posted a different factoid must have misheard the broadcast.
EDIT2: Both factoids were actually correct, I'm not getting old...yet lol. First 5 game losing streak for Texas since 1956

SEC to disinvite the shorthorns and invite Kansas in their place. 😂
WF up 45-35 on NC state…NC State inside the 10 but only 50 secs left
NC State scores 45-42 WF 45 secs left..onsides kick coming up
Oregon up 14-0 on WSU

NC State got it but illegal touching…got it maybe at 9 yds instead of 10. Under review
Ruling stands

WF wins and firm control of the Atlantic division of the ACC with next closest team with 2 losses while they’re undefeated in conference.
Oregon up 14-7 on WSU

Patience is a virtue by WF holding onto Clawson.
After two 3-9/1-7 seasons, then 7-6, 8-6, 7-6, and 8-5, took a step back in 2020. It took his 8th year to achieve more than 8 wins. Could they have achieved the same by hiring and firing two new coaches in that same span? Ask Rutgers how that worked out.
WFU, however, held onto Grobe for 13 years- in year 6 Grobe went 11-3, but then spiraled down to his final 5 seasons being losing seasons.
If you're WF those 7/8 win seasons and likely .500 or so in conference give or take is pretty good and this year they're having a dream year. 2020 was a weird year and every year can't be good.
What I like is best is he adapted his offense (delayed mesh) to figure out a way to compete with teams that have more talent. Article I posted a little while ago mentioned their recruiting rankings are always near the bottom of the ACC and two of those years dead last.
WSU scores before half....under review 14-14

Well remember Clawson was hampered in the beginning by the playbook leaking scandal.
The Kansas fans (I think they were Kansas fans) chanting SEC! SEC! SEC! after the game was gold.
Elijah Barnwell leads Maine to a big 35-10 win over Umass. Looks like they are the de facto champs in New England FB. Beat URI 45-24. UMass beat UConn in their head-to-head.
Yeah top recruits won’t even consider Wake. There is only one 4-star on this 2021 Wake team and he is a transfer from Michigan.
College football takeaways: Florida's shaky win over Samford all but buries Dan Mullen
It wasn't even a loss, but Florida's effort against Samford on Saturday may have been a death knell for Dan Mullen.
sports.yahoo.com
Some happenings of the day in the article...some really bad stats for UF in their win. Mullen has gone from likely safe to likely gone the way the season has unraveled lately. I still think he's a good coach but maybe needs to go to a Miss State type job again where there's less scrutiny and pressure.
So you'll have LSU, USC and a good chance for UF coming open and then the trickle down effect from that. Wonder if they'd try for Cristobal. If not Miami, UF is top name Florida name for him. Don't know about his coaching acumen but for sure would recruit like hell at UF.
From the article:
The 42 first-half points marked a program record by an opponent, and that’s mind-blowing considering Samford lost 55-13 to Chattanooga last month and is tied for fifth in the FCS Southern Conference.
There’s flat performances. There’s lifeless performances. There’s listless performances. And then there’s the performances that combine all those so obviously that they end coaching tenures, alter the financial futures of athletic departments and send reverberations throughout the coaching carousel.
The reality for Mullen is that he’d built mountains of equity coming back to Gainesville — where he served as offensive coordinator on a pair of national title teams — and starting his tenure 29-6. But since then, the Gators have lost eight of 10 to Power Five programs and recently shown a spiral that speaks much more to engagement, effort and connection than to schematics or even overall talent.
According to ESPN stats & info, Florida’s four-game total of giving up 175 points is the most the school has allowed in more than a century.
Parting ways with Mullen isn’t untenable. We’ve reached the point in the SEC — and college football in general — where paying $12 million to fire a coach isn’t even considered all that expensive. There’s no buyout incentive to keep Mullen, as he’d also get $12 million if he’s fired next year.
Wait. Maine is tied for 6th in the CAA conference, with Villanova (not New England) in first and Rhode Island ahead of them in the standings.
8-1 Dartmouth and 8-2 Holy Cross might not concede to a 5-5 Maine team.
Come on Mike, even a wooded legged pirate would have more groove in his step than that for a 28-3 comeback. They make big mistakes, stoic face little reaction....they make great plays...stoic face little reaction...I suppose this is like hitting the emotional reaction lottery for him.
Forgot to mention Texas Tech also got bowl eligible for the first time since 2017. This after they've fired their coach and already hired a new one.
