College Football 2015 Week 6 thread

At least when Nebraska sucked under Bill Callahan, they were fun to watch.

 

"Mea culpa. But the larger point still stands: Having a losing season one-third of the time at Nebraska ain't gonna fly. As is this constitutes the worst start for the Huskers since the end of the 50s. I'd say the second time he finishes below .500, he's done."

I agree completely. Unfortunately for Riley now the QB at Nebraska might be worst guy he's ever worked with, seeing as how three of his guys at OSU (Derek Anderson, Matt Moore, Sean Mannion) are in the NFL and the fourth (Sean Canfield) had some time on an NFL practice squad.

 

If I were betting, I wouldn't touch Florida-Missouri. I haven't decided if Florida-Kentucky was the outlier or if Florida-Ole Miss was. Missouri showed a lot more spirit on offense with Lock, but it was a pretty conservative plan.

 

Baylor now a 44-point favorite. I hope it's frigging 101-0.

 

N.C. State (PK) at Va. Tech
Appalachian St. (-16) at Georgia St.
Tulsa (-9.5) vs. La.-Monroe

 

The LSU-South Carolina game has been moved from Columbia to Baton Rouge. No word yet on whether the time and TV will change.

Many of you whippersnappers are too dang young to remember the 70s and 80s when this sort of spread against NW for Michigan week was the norm. First came Gary Barnett and now Coach Fitzgerald who served to somewhat level the playing field.
Carry on.

 

Strong may well beat OU.
Texas can score points and OU hasn't got any sort of Dewey, Louie, Hughey thing going on these days.
Strong needs a legit period to try and build. He needs a total buy-in from the Sipper Nation.

 

I realize the Upstate didn't get hit as hard with flooding, but surprised there has been no talk of moving Clemson-GT. That's going to take a lot of public safety manpower away also.

 

Let's face facts, Northwestern was a heavy underdog against Michigan -- or anybody -- well into the '90s. If you told a college football fan 25 years ago that Northwestern would be in better shape than Nebraska, Miami and Texas, they'd wonder more about this future you'd speak of.
I believe that Wildcats win in '95 at Notre Dame was very much a turning point in college football history.
