Well...feck.
I'm an OU alumnus.What? Stoops retirement? MSU sexual assault case?
Ah, understood. Calling him a legend doesn't do him justice.I'm an OU alumnus.
Trever Lawrence ? I hear he's the real deal.A bit OT, but Clemson's 5 star QB commit is playing on ESPN2 right now
Yes and yes lolTrever Lawrence ? I hear he's the real deal.
Still have my money on Oklahoma but I think it will be a good matchup.Oke State is a popular dark horse. Not sure how I feel about that.

I'm mainly annoyed that USC are that high.

I'm worried about our passing game this year. We spluttered in several games (including against Penn State) because of our inability to do anything once the defense dared us to throw the ball.The benefits of having the future #1 overall pick at QB.
Some really good out of conference games in a year where it feels like there's not a clear pecking order after Bama. They play Florida St I think(?), OU vs The OSU, some others that I can't be bothered to look up.
I don't know if we have the horsepower on the lines to compete with Ohio State but it will be interesting and a conference strength reference point for the rest of the year.
unfortunately neither game is actually at a college stadium on a college campus, one of the best things about college footballMichigan @ Florida at 3:30 pm

Disgrace if true.unfortunately neither game is actually at a college stadium on a college campus, one of the best things about college football
What conference is Wyoming (it's not a P5), and will that ultimately impact Allen's draft standing? I know Carson Wentz also went to a non-P5 and he starts for the Eagles.Not sure if anyone is as much as a college football nerd as me and watched Iowa-Wyoming, but before you hear BS from anyone else, future 1st round pick QB Josh Allen wasn't bad at all. His arm strength and poise were all on exhibit. He's magnificent in the pocket and so crisp on play-action. His receivers dropped more balls than I can count, including a beauty that would have been a 40+ yard bomb to the endzone. Lastly, the Wyoming offense was disgustingly vanilla and they barely let Allen let it rip deep. 7 yard outs all game.Terrible to watch that playcalling. He was completely fine - everyone throws picks, even the greats. He had to push the ball at the end as they were down by 3 scores, that lead to turnovers. CFB fans will be hearing a lot about Josh Allen this year and I wanted to post something before the dopey media or some dork wad blogger does a hit piece on him.
Mountain West innit?What conference is Wyoming (it's not a P5), and will that ultimately impact Allen's draft standing? I know Carson Wentz also went to a non-P5 and he starts for the Eagles.
Wyoming plays in the Mountain West. To be honest, they play some entertaining football games if you can catch them late as they are a few hours behind the Eastern time zone.What conference is Wyoming (it's not a P5), and will that ultimately impact Allen's draft standing?

Decent start for NDCanes won so I am happy.
We play them in two weeks in Tallahassee. They will probably win convincingly given tonight's loss.Tonight makes me feel better about our chances against FSU this season
I turned that off in the second quarter and put on the other game. Couldn't believe they made that comeback - they were absolutely terrible at the start. Rosen was neutralized. The HB for A&M almost had 200 yards in the first half!Am I the only person watching this Bruins comeback?
No, I watched it.Am I the only person watching this Bruins comeback?
Tuesday because there is still a game tonight. Normally AP polls are released on Mondays, though.When are the new polls coming out?
It's certainly a throwback to an offense that went extinct decades ago, but to me it's entertaining because it's something we rarely see. And it makes the game go quicker because they keep pounding it. Really smash mouth stuff.7-7 right now between GT and Tennessee. Good game so far.
Paul Johnson catches alot of grief for his offense, but I played in the Flexbone. It is fun as hell to run.
It's still alive and well at smaller colleges and at the high school level.It's certainly a throwback to an offense that went extinct decades ago, but to me it's entertaining because it's something we rarely see.

I remember seeing it a lot back in high school, unfortunately very few guys were talented/decisive enough to run it well. Just became a mishmosh of blockers. But I certainly agree it is fun to watch and difficult to match up against if your squad doesn't have the guys able to thread the lineman and find the ball carrier.It's still alive and well at smaller colleges and at the high school level.
Alot of teams are adapting the Pistol and Spread offenses to run option based systems with Flexbone style wings instead of slot receivers.
I can attest that the Flex/Pistol and Flex/Gun hybrids are hell on wheels to game plan to stop.
We were kinda good at it Having a 6ft 225lb Fullback and 4 guys who rotated at the wings that could run 4.5 second 40's helped. Our line was small, but we were mean as hell.I remember seeing it a lot back in high school, unfortunately very few guys were talented/decisive enough to run it well.
