College Football Saturday

dpinzow : 9/23/2017 7:10 pm
O'Korn might be winning the Michigan QB job over Speight. Speight got hurt and O'Korn has made some really good plays in relief, including a 27-yard seam pass while getting hit in the head...

TCU (ranked 16th) is about to beat OK St in Stillwater, which will probably put them in the top 10. Mason Rudolph getting outscored at home.

USC and Cal was close for 3 quarters but Darnold and company broke it open

Miami was in trouble for 3 quarters before finally putting Toledo away.

Earlier, FSU fell to 0-2 with a loss to NCST in Tallahassee. They have offensive line issues like the Giants. Their backup QB after Francois got hurt was hit on almost every play
Coming up in the evening

Mississippi St at Georgia
Notre Dame at Michigan St
Penn St at Iowa
Hope Speight is ok  
KWhite2250 : 9/23/2017 7:21 pm : link
With that said, O’Korn is just a better qb. And should be the qb going forward
Alabama beat Vanderbilt by over 50.

Alabama players were begging the coach to score again in the closing seconds. He didn't which is good.
Saquon Barkley

is better than all of our RBs right now, and he's still in college
Great job by Iowa to hold PSU out

Did anyone watch Rutgers Nebraska?  
EricJ : 9/23/2017 8:25 pm : link
I actually thought Rutgers had a shot there for a while. Then, the same old Rutgers showed up for the rest of the game.

Last week, the rookie QB got in the game and he made things happen. Not sure that he got in the game today.

Lealao of Vanderbilt did not help his team this week with comments. Bad enough that they are very likely to going to bent over and violated by that Bama team. I guess he needs to explain how 2 backs or more ran for over 100 yards each in THEIR house. 496 yard rushing? yikes...
ND scores quickly on their first drive

Iowa needs a decent drive otherwise their defense will be gassed
Penn State has 15 minutes of possession to Iowa's 6  
dpinzow : 9/23/2017 8:44 pm : link
on an unseasonably warm evening. Iowa's in big trouble at that rate and that defense can't hold up all evening (rephrasing the last comment)
Whoever is in the replay booth  
MookGiants : 9/23/2017 8:47 pm : link
should lose their job over that. That play was as dirty of a hit as you will see. Absolutely disgusting yet somehow no official on the field saw it and the replay booth someone didn't buzz down to look at it. I didnt see a number but he should have been thrown out of the game.
Wimbush gets targeted CLEARLY

That's going to be an enormous game with FSU out of the playoff picture and possibly out of the ACC championship picture. The winner of that game has an inside run to the playoff. Blacksburg/Lane Stadium is a fantastic home field

That was a great play.

2nd cheap shot  
MookGiants : 9/23/2017 9:40 pm : link
by MSU on Wimbush.

He didn't hit him in the head, but a hit like that should result in the guy getting thrown out of the game
Saquon Barkley just plowed 2 Iowa defenders

James Franklin needs to be fired for his game play tonight  
Bramton1 : 9/23/2017 9:49 pm : link
Barkley is TORCHING Iowa's defense, but Franklin has a hard on for running the offense through McSorley.

Barkley averaging 8.1 ypc, but instead McSorley has either run or passed 37 times tonight.

Whoever gets Barkley next year is going to build their offense around him, even if they have a good QB
Barkley is the best back

a little under 6 minutes left

PSU blocks a FG to keep their 15-7 lead. Would have been a penalty in the NFL (for leaping over the center)
Ed Orgeron  
MookGiants : 9/23/2017 10:27 pm : link
is an absolutely awful head coach. I have no idea how he got the LSU job. They could have picked any number of random coordinators around college football that couldn't possibly be any worse than he is.
Go 'Cuse!

An easy TD drop earlier otherwise Syracuse would be beating these fools in Baton Rouge

Just as impressive was Barkley staying in to block on that play and picked up his man nicely.

If the Giants ever had an offensive line, he would be the perfect fit for the offense. He turned some plays that would have gained minimal and created extra stuff out of it.

on MSU's team. Klatt is out of his fucking mind, he was out of bounds and he dove at his legs. No reason he needs to dive at his legs there either. That's the 3rd one tonight on Wimbush.

Dropped an easy TD and an easy pick 6. If you want to go into a tough environment against a much better team, you have to make those plays.

The funny part is after this collection of cheap shots against Wimbush, the last of which was a penalized late hit out of bounds, Gus Johnson and Klatt pretended there was no ill intent. I said out loud, "What game are these idiots watching"?
Cuse  
hitdog42 : 9/24/2017 10:42 am : link
I'm optimistic about the coach- I like the tempo both sides play with- they don't show up to just try and be in the game.

How are they set up class wise? The qb is good enough to lead a top 40 team. They have skill players. I am out of touch with recruiting and underclassmen set up
