Oklahoma @ ND : Already 14-0 as Turnover Tommy is in full effect

LSU @ Georgia : All tied up at 7-7

FSU @ BC : Phenom freshman QB on the road. BC up 7-0 early

I'm betting FSU gets at least a FG before the half. BC coaching staff really blew it.

I meant a TD, they'd get a TD. Holy shit is BC's D lame. I take back the comment about the coaches.

If Greg Davis' Iowa offense can muster 229 yards in the first half, I'll be severely disappointed if we don't blow the doors off of Minnesota next weekend.

Very nice drive to end the half for Georgia. God I like Aaron Murray a lot.

Also, nice to see their "pro-style" offense get to the damn line in a hurry and are able to audible and check in to/out of plays with 16 seconds on the play clock. It can be done.

Annnnd it appears none of you are watching this game...

ND rips off a big run for a TD. Right back in it.

Shows how impressive it is that michigan hasn't givin up a rushing td yet.

I have watched ND for three weeks in a row now and I have no idea why brian kelly ever throws the ball. They are a great running team but he goes away from it almost immediately every game.

Anyone else really conflicted about who to root for in the ND game? OU losing means a team ranked above Michigan will probably drop, and ND winning makes our win against ND look better. But... I want ND to lose in an embarrassing fashion always.

I just came home from the cider mill and decided to watch Florida State vs. Boston College for some reason.

I take it from the hype that Jameis Winston's passer rating is still over 200? Looking at the box score, I also see that Florida State is coming up on 400 yards of offense here, whereas BC has barely 200 yards.

God damn I don't mean to star a bitch fest about Borges or any of that but it's a bit depressing watching all these other teams, no matter their record or how good they are or who they're playing, run the ball effectively. Obviously they all don't do it all the time but every game I've watched today (at least bits of all of the televised ones) has shown successful running plays, the point being, something we've done little of. Hope it's getting fixed this weekend and next week.

There are definitely going to be instances where the targeting rule is misapplied, but that isn't one. Dude clearly could've pulled up, but brought his helmet directly in the path of the receiver's head.
