College football Week 1 thread

UMass doing it right after UConn is up there too. They jumped off the bridge because Johnny did it first.

 

I watched the kick again. The ball was on the left hash and the snap was straight back. Almost every NFL team and a lot of NCAA teams directional snap to the center of the field to take away the angle. I wonder if FSU considered this (obviously not).

 

Teethbirds better put some points up before halftime or America is going to get a good night’s sleep before a four-day work week.

 

Screw 'em. I hope Loserville gets buried.

 

Fourth targeting ejection of the first half is not helping the watchability of a bad matchup.

 

Ole Miss defenders seeking out contact is still a novelty. Evolution takes time.

 

To my Nebraska in-laws, it’s very difficult. They still don’t understand that rule and piss-and-moan whenever Nebraska continues to get flagged for it over and over again.

 

I wonder. given the financial debacle UConn athletics is, if the early ouster of Edsall is part of a move back Division 1-AA. The absence of a conference television package make it financially suicidal for UConn to be a Division 1 independent.

 

I wonder if the CAA would have any interest in taking UConn back should they make such a move. That's the only FCS league that makes sense geographically, and there's some history there with the old Yankee Conference. After the AAC debacle, I can't see any other FBS league wanting to add them, even as an affiliate.

 

Seems like the MAC would be a decent fit, they could develop a "rivalry" with Buffalo.
