College Football

I definitely don't think UCF is as good as last year. They might only be an 8 win team when it's said and done. It was more the margin of victory that was impressive than the win itself. They showed their talent in the first half, when their o-line basically pushed us around. Couldn't have been more different in the second.

Interested to watch Tennessee/OU here in a couple. I fully expect an Oklahoma win but I'm curious to see if UT can compete. They have looked pretty good in their first couple of games. Of course Oklahoma has too......

Watched the Hawgs play Texas Tech, Hawgs can run the ball for sure, I forget the exact number, but they had something like 430 yards rushing. Good win for the Hawgs, I believe they were 4.5 point underdogs. Hawgs are going to be a tough out for other SEC teams. If only they had a defense.

UK got jobbed in Florida. Refs missed the daly of game call. Impressive showing by the kittens. They are Finally on an upswing.

Just looked at the scores - BC upset USC. BC rushed for even more yards than the Hogs did.

Quill, they still don't have a good Defensive secondary and missed a bunch of primary tackles. The SEC teams are going to eat up the D-fence. Hogs O-line is looking good and they will ( if they don't have the hogs typical self implosion ) control the game clock for sure. But if the other team has a good air game or goo o-line with RB's we wont win. TAMU will be our first real good test of this, if they keep it close I would be happy.

I am seeing a lot of improvement and Coach B may well have been the penicillin the Hogs needed, Im still holding judgment for another couple years, He still has no SEC wins and a lot of work in Defense and if he just builds the o-line and tries to play Wisconsin ball in the sec without that D he wont last long.

[Quillback]

Yep they need some D.

Arkansas is better than expected. Nice win at Texas Tech. They look like a potential bowl contender at this point. Still don't like Bret, but an interesting rivalry betweem MU/Arkansas would be nice.

No mention of MU's loss to Indiania? You all must be as embarrassed as I am. I am trying hard not to overact, but I am worried about the rest of the season and our ability to stop anyone with an offense.

I am probably too invested in college football, but that literally ruined my weekend and if I wasn't out fishing it would have been really really bad.

Yeah at this point I think it's the obvious choice to replace the 1854 dual. The only thing I think it lacks is a neutral field and I can't think of any options there.

You guys and your pipe dreams of a replacement rivalry. Ain't gonna happen.

I was at the game in Lawrence Saturday. The only mention of any other games was when Indiana scored a TD. The crowd loved it.
