EVENTUAL 2020-212021-22 NATIONAL CHAMPION MICHIGAN STATE 28, Indiana 18Even I do not believe this, but as long as there is a ship I intend to go down with it.
the 42, Maryland 24A suddenly interesting game. It seems like the loses a bit of intensity when out to a big lead. I think the Turtles scored a nice coup in getting baby Tua. I have seen nothing from Maryland defensively that indicates to me that they can stop Fields and company. Maryland is still the same team that got dusted by Northwestern. Yankguy’s boys still have Rutgers and Meatchicken is on the schedule, plus maybe one other game they should probably win… can’t think who that might be, but I am sure it is there… so a 5-3 record before the plus 1 is a real likelihood.Cancelled due to COVID on Maryland.
Wisconsin 0, Meatchicken 0I do not think this game is going to be played. If it is, I will update. For now, let me just note that I do not think the talk of Harbaugh being ousted has any validity at this point. I think the budget for the Athletic Department is taking a huge, huge hit, and this is a bad time to be searching for a high priced head coach. As for the game, if played, Wisky has not been on the field for three weeks. They haven’t even been practicing in a real sense. As bad as Meatchicken has been this year, I think they would win this one.
Our Lady of the Perpetual Tie 27, Boston College 10Well, I did not expect the offense I saw last week. I till think they are a mirage until proven otherwise, but BC had its one great half of football for the year.
Alabama 49, the Louisiana State University 10I know the LSU lost a ton of talent last year, and I expected a drop, but not this steep of one. Ogeron would be on the “would be most fired but for COVID list” with Harbaugh were it not for the fact that you simply cannot fire a coach one year after a championship unless they do something like black up and spout the n word while naked in the company of three men none of whom are his wife. Game has been cancelled. Lucky break for the LSU.
the Pennsylvania State University 27, Nebraska 21You know, thirty years ago or so this would have been a great bowl game. Nebraska has not been nationally relevant in over a decade, though, and Penn State has been beatable this year. the Pennsylvania State has been the most disappointing team for me, personally, even though I thought that they were overrated at the start of the season. Turn overs + Bad Defense = loss. Where else would that equation be relevant….
University of California* 38, Arizona 27Again, a game I am not sure will be played. Tucson is a COVID hot spot. I know it is one game, but USC’s defense does not look good. Still like their offensive weapons and Scottsdale’s Own looks like he has both talent and moxie.
*Southern
Cincinnati 35, East Carolina 17OLotPT beating ClemSIN probably keeps any Gang of Six team out of the playoffs this year, unless OLotPT or ClemSIN gets a second loss this year. Too bad, really. I don’t think Cinci would have much of chance against Alabama as a 4 seed, but it would be nice to see them try.
Coastal Carolina 35, Troy 17Troy – the traditional cupcake of top ranked teams. My parents live about three miles on the seaward side of CCU for years. That is all I got. I have seen a few CCU games this year, on the WWLiS, but only until I remind myself
I am watching Coastal Carolina play football which means my life clearly sucks.Not that you have seen it, but my repeated and inexplicable difficulties in being able to spell/type “myself” means I am required to post this:
https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=wj5VODa-eTYTexas A&M 42, Tennessee 17Somewhere along the line, UT is going to regret the decision to not hire Schiano. Oh wait… that day may be here.This game has also been postponed.
Florida 27, Arkansas 17Two pieces of relevant information: 1. Arkansas has played three ranked teams this year and lost to all three (while winning all of their games against non-ranked teams) 2. Florida is ranked. I am aware that there is a very good argument that this is at the very least three facts.
Oregon 27, Washington State 17The game is at Pullman, which remains the single most God Forsaken Outpost on the Power Five map. Anyway, Oregon did not have much trouble with Stanford. I expect WSU to take it up the wazzu. As the saying goes.
Georgia 17, Missouri 6I was surprised by what Florida did to Georgia’s defense. I do not expect a repeat performance. This is starting to look like a great weekend for yardwork.
Miami 37, Virginia Tech 31I wasn’t going to pic on this having no real thoughts, but with all the cancellations, I need something.
