College football 10/07

Well, people are talking about the Furman game, so why not KU?

 

Hogs up 10-0 in 1st.

 

Crazy-looking touchdown. Auburn fans are stunned.

 

Ultimately, this game means little more than just being a tune-up for the must-win roadies at Iowa State and Nebraska (must-win if they want a shot at the North title anyway).

I won't chug the black and gold kool-aid until Pinkel starts winning games like this consistently. His road record (other than the occasional trip to Baylor) is deplorable. Besides playing bad, Pinkel's game plans seem to be completely moronic away from Columbia.

Who can forget the last game in Lincoln, where he decided to land at 6 a.m. for an 11 a.m. game (thanks to plane trouble the night before) then proceed to throw 60 goddam passes in a 30 mph crosswind with the scatter-armed Brad Smith?

Winning the games you should is step one. Winning the games you should on the road is step two. It's time for step two, but it won't be today, unfortunately.

 

Go Hogs!

 

I cannot believe I am actually watching Illinois kick a team's ass all over the field.

 

Well executed trick play by Wake Forest, which is up 14-3 on Clemson.

 

Nice TD for Auburn as a new No. 1 receiver might be emerging.

Still, Tigers sure don't look like No. 2 -- unless you mean shit.

 

Who is that beautiful creature in your avatar?

 

Odd things happen at Jordan-Hare Stadium, no matter how Craig Bolerjack pronounces it.

 

That Felix Jones on Arkansas has got some serious speed.
