EVENTUAL 2019-2020 National Champion Michigan State 17, Wisconsin 10
Unlike THE, Wisconsin’s offense is very run heavy, with little threat from the passing game. It is pretty much strength versus strength when Wisky has the ball, and I think we can use the lack of the passing game to load up the front and keep Taylor in relative check. We still have to score, of course. It would help to not fumble on our first two possessions, which is precisely how far I got in watching the game on Saturday.
Alabama 45, Texas A&M 10
I am glad that Alabama is finally playing somebody, but I am surprised that TAMU is still considered “somebody”. Granted they lost to two pretty good teams, but last I saw they were getting threatened by Arfuckingkansas. I am not sure why they are ranked, but I do not expect much of a game.
Oklahoma 42, Texas 38
I am thinking about transferring to Oklahoma to play QB next year. I would love a Heisman.
Methchicken 21, Illinois 0
No faith in the Methchicken offensives, but the defense is legitimate. That’s seven field goals, by the way. Illinois is bad.
ClemSIN 42, the Florida State University 13
They had their hiccup. I expect ClemSIN to run the table with relative ease from here on out, and for Jennifer Lawrence to live closer to up to the preseason hype.
Our Lady if the Perpetual Tie 28, University of California* 10
It hurts at least one of us to point this out, but the Pete Carroll years stand out as an exception to the post-John Robinson Mark I Years of Meh at SC. They may not be the elite program we continue to think of them as. It should be a great situation, maybe the right coach, oh, someone whose name rhymes with Murban Eyer….
* Southern
the Pennsylvania State University 24, Iowa 13
I am wobbling like a weeble on whether PSU is a legitimate challenger to THE in the Big Whatever East, but their defense looks like it has the potential. Not sure that they have enough offensive tools. It will be interesting to watch them against Iowa’s good defense.
the Louisiana State University 35, Florida 17
Well, this may be the week we learn if Burrows is for real, or just a beneficiary of his level of competition. I guess Florida is for real after all, but I think the LSU manages them.
Colorado 27, Oregon 17
Just spent five days in Colorado. Something like that HAS to rub off. As an irrelevant aside, my dog the music critic pissed on the John Denver Sanctuary (cool park, by the way) sign in Aspen. Haven’t been this proud of him since he similarly relieved himself on the Jefferson Davis Memorial Highway marker in Texas. I have zero tolerance for Lost Cause Revisioninsm. Also unrelatedly, took Benji out for a late night poop in Durango only to see a gigantic (or so it seemed) vicious (or so it seemed) black bear sitting in front of the door six rooms down. Note I did not say who was doing the late night poop.
Purdue 27, Maryland 17
There are teams that start the season well “right the ship” when winning after a two game losing streak. Maryland played Rutgers.
Minnesota 27, Nebraska 24
Minnesota still has not lost yet. Nebraska has not impressed yet.
Baylor 27, Texas Tech 24
Swap “Baylor” and “Texas Tech” for “Minnesota” and “Nebraska” above.
the Boise State University 35, Hawai’I 10
Have we found our Group of Five representative? At USU may be the toughest game left.
