CFB Thread 9-14. No great games today

superspynyg : 9/14/2019 8:18 am
The best gMes are:
Clemson vs Syracuse
Florida State vs Virginia
Stanford vs UCF

Notre Dame vs New Mexico at 2:30. Let’s go!!!
I love the Pitt vs Penn State game.  
SteelGiant : 9/14/2019 8:44 am : link
Even though game will probably be a blow out.
Come on - Maryland at Temple!  
Bobby Humphrey's Earpad : 9/14/2019 9:15 am : link
I believe Gameday is at Iowa-Iowa State after Syracuse lost. That game is always crazy.

TCU-Purdue is interesting becausethe line has completely flipped where Purdue went from 2-point home favorite to now getting points at home.
Syracuse-Clemson is going to be a blowout.  
Crispino : 9/14/2019 9:30 am : link
I know ‘Cuse has been good against Clemson lately, but did you see their defense against Maryland? Lawrence is going to shred them, and I think Dabo doesn’t take his foot off the gas because ‘Cuse has played them tough the last two years. Line was Clemson -28. Not sure if it has moved.
Best

Not the last two years. 33-14 and 51-6
Most scholarships  
Lines of Scrimmage : 9/14/2019 11:10 am : link
are actually 5 years. Most student-athletes are taking 12 credits. In addition, they are provided with heavy resources assisting with education; monitoring of grades by a staff, tutors, etc.

The other big thing many of them have is the opportunity to continue in the field of athletics. Many will be future coaches, teachers, sports admin, trainers etc. and being in a Division 1 program gives a incredible leg up.

Division 3 schools don't give scholarships but many receive "grants" to assist.

The post above regarding some type of sharing revenue was interesting.
Sorry

I bet Penn State -16.5 after fully going into it thinking I was going  
Zeke's Alibi : 9/14/2019 12:34 pm : link
Pitt. Only two things Pitt has going is weather and revenge game, but I think PSU came out sleepy last week because they were looking ahead to this one.

Are plenty of good games without rankings next to their names.

Anyways, from what I’ve seen so far in 3 weeks, ohio st looks so much better coached with Meyer gone(really hard to believe)
Justin Fields is the real deal  
Anakim : 9/14/2019 1:10 pm : link
Lawrence vs. Fields to be the #1 overall pick next year. It'll probably be Lawrence, but the competition between the two will be one to follow for years to come.

Furman

Up 14-3 on V Tech going into half on ACC network
I really took in...  
bw in dc : 9/14/2019 1:19 pm : link
that Wash St v Houston game last night.

That Gordon kid at QB for Wazzu is going to be an interesting prospect. Stand very tall in the pocket, can move, and looks to have very good touch throwing long. Looks like the mad scientist Leach has done it again.

Again, for those of us interested in receiving talent, Wazzu has two guys that stood out - Arconado and Paton. Arc looks like he good be a sneaky, reliable move the sticks guy. And Paton is an absolute beast with a non-assembly needed NFL body. Has a real knack to get deep and shield off defenders...
Hokies down 14-3 to Furman at the half

I think we cluster draft WRs next year, very deep class.

I'd be surprised  
MookGiants : 9/14/2019 1:46 pm : link
if even one GM liked Fields more than Lawrence.

Lawrence is the QB you would build if you could build the best QB prospect in a lab.

Fields is very good, but no where near the passer that Lawrence is.
NC State-WVU 21-21 at half  
Jints in Carolina : 9/14/2019 1:47 pm : link

It's shaping up to be a terrific class of receivers. We should have no problem getting a crack at quite a few.

I agree. Field is more of a dual threat player. But there are some passing skills there. But he's a few galaxies away from Lawrence in that department.

I'll say this - Lawrence hasn't been that great this year yet. Been sloppy. Needs to tighten up his game.
Just flipped on Ohio State Indiana  
Bluesbreaker : 9/14/2019 2:43 pm : link
51-10
State just had a 97 yard pick six .....3rd quarter

but South Carolina's D line looks very capable so far against this inexperienced Alabama OL.

State and Arizona State are going right down to the end. ASU is inside the MSU 10 with just over a minute to play. I think the ASU QB Daniels is a true freshman, and his mobility has really hurt MSU. He's scrambled for a few key first downs. He also has a very strong arm.

It looks like ASU just scored a TD with less than a minute left to take the lead.

That was one of worst football games I've ever seen - a game so bad both teams almost refused to win. The 7 yard punt sealed it for me.

I've defended Willie Taggart in the past,

Taggart may be the dumbest coach...

UVA deserved to win...so the football gods got it right.
Refs certainly went beyond the call of duty for FSU  
Greg from LI : 9/14/2019 11:11 pm : link
Two absolute joke calls and another that was questionable at best to keep them alive. Hall's PI was the only good call on the drive.
Michigan State  
Daniel in MI : 9/14/2019 11:11 pm : link
got hosed. I don't generally whine about officials, but, aApart from the fact that the officials called everything on MSU and little on ASU - including at one point where the ASU guy hit an MSU player in the face after the play right in front of an official who stepped in to break it up but called nothing - there was a leaping call missed on that last FG attempt. The ASU player ran forward and jumped over the C, which is a 15 yard PF. Even the studio crew commented on it. But it was missed on the field and not reviewable. Of course.

And anyone who dislikes Dantonio but likes Harbaugh has sour grapes over one too many surrender cobras. "Whoa he has trouble with the snap! And the ball is free! It's picked up by Michigan State's Jaylen Watts-Jackson! And he scOOOrres on the last play of the game!
Unbelievable! - ( New Window )

It's a crime he's not talked about more. I get it he doesn't have an extensive route tree, but he has the size, athleticism and hands that scream potential.
