September here, and college football starting up

  • Thread starter Thread starter Jan2017
  • Start date Start date
Looks like Houston and Nebraska will go to 4 -0 , Wisconsin may have more than they can handle tomorrow.
 
I expect to go 5 - 0 on my picks tomorrow , should put me around 89 percent or so on 20 or so games since the season started . Soon , I will just start looking a little more at over/unders . I spent some of my winnings today @ the hardware and bought some chain saw oil.

Colorado gave Michigan a scare until our QB got hurt. We were ahead in the third quarter in their stadium. Considering the last time we won at least five games (not even a winning season) was in 2010 and have only won five conference games over the last five seasons, we are definitely improving. Next up, at Oregon. That won't be easy either. Kicker out for the season and QB day to day.

Oregon is fast on offense . I watched that Nebraska game.
 
Their starting running back is out this week. Lost a receiver too. Both teams hurting. Oregon probably has more depth though.
 
Ready to watch the Ole Miss Rebels beat those Georgia Bulldogs tomorrow. Anyone else going to be at the game??

That is a person having a really good time right now.

Also... Georgia...

Note for posterity's sake: I posted this as Georgia fumbled, Ole Miss recovered, and the score stands ate 45-7 near the start of the 4th quarter.
 
Colorado off to good start- even without our starting QB. Backup is 12- 13 and 113 yards in first quarter and we are up 16-7 (TD extra point blocked) but Oregon scored quickly on their last drive. Oregon QB is 2-4 for 22 yards. Oregon got most of their yards (86 so far) on a single 50 yard run.
 
Tennessee coming back, wearing their alt colors today. They used to be weird about alt uniforms, and rarely wore them. There was one where they had the navy blue jerseys, looked like UT-Martin. The all orange was supposedly cursed, I think they were wearing all orange when they got beat by U Memphis (formerly Memphis State).

Dobbs is on fire and the Gators have more cramps than a prissy HS girl. Why do I have the feeling this could wind up being another OT game?

Answer to my own question: Wishful thinking.

That imaginary punch that was called that led to an ejection was hilarious, though.
 
My Hoosiers lost by 5 , 33 - 28 ( covered the spread and the over ) . We turned it over 6 times , five picks , one a pick 6 and had FG blocked . The first one of those picks came when we were first and goal on our second possession up 7 - 0 .Too much to overcome , we outscored them 21 - 12 in the second half but were one touchdown short . Looks like the Demon Deacons are 4 - 0 .

Hard to win when you give away the ball that much.

Yeah , it is kind of amazing we were even able to work our way back into the game . Down 21 - 7 at half and still not done turning it over. We turned one over on downs in the 4th while driving in the last five minutes , I think we still would have won if we had converted that one. That was probably the first time they stopped us all day , mostly we just stopped ourselves. Our defense was good enough .Defense is a big improvement over last yr I think.
