Do Not Shoot the Messenger Over the Source. This is a concise wrap-up of Week 4 Big Ten Games. https://trojanswire.usatoday.com/story/sports/college/trojans/football/2025/09/22/biggest-losers-winners-week-4-big-ten-football/86288616007/?utm_source=smg-trojanswire-strada&utm_medium=email&utm_c It's Demond, not Desmond Williams, and the author had to take his shot at OBD being good only because of the money spent. All Trojan players are in it simply for the free room, board, and tuition, right? 😴

AP on the ACC's moving to nine conference games. AP NewsACC moving to 9-game football schedule starting next year...The Atlantic Coast Conference is moving to a nine-game league schedule for football while having teams play at least 10 games against power-conference opponents, though there will be variables due toThe ACC's discussions on whether to go to nine games were 'incredibly intentional.' Not mundane and meandering? 🤔 How about: 'We do this or we look like chicken spit weenies! Next subject.'

Not Texas, but close. I think the Oklahoma State job will open up, and to win there, you have to recruit Texas. Baylor's had two tough losses this season: to Auburn in Week 1 and last Saturday to ASU. I think Dave Aranda is good for at least one more season. But Aranda was a D coach at Wisconsin when the Badgers won with D and its run game. When Fickel is fired, Aranda, if Baylor goes 9-3, could be in the mix for the Badgers' job. Lots of coaching dominoes if Arkansas, Wisconsin, and Florida jobs come open. If Florida offers the job to Lane Kiffin, which I think is a real possibility, in addition to Ole Miss, other jobs could open in the SEC. Mark Stoops' buyout at Kentucky is large, but many Kentucky fans are ready for him to go. Clark Lea has Vandy competing in every game the Commodores play. Lea's a Vandy alum, but he has a chance to earn more money if he takes a different job in the SEC. Jeff Lebby has Mississippi State playing much better in his second season in Starkville and is paid 'only' $4.5 million a year. It's all good in Norman, Oklahoma, today, but the Sooners were the beneficiary of two bad calls against Auburn, beat Auburn by seven points, and have not been able to run the ball. Mateer is exciting, but his QB Efficiency ranking is not top-tier. After blowing out Kent State this coming Saturday, Oklahoma has the rivalry game vs. Texas, plays Ole Miss, Missouri, and LSU at home, and plays South Carolina, Tennessee, and Alabama on the road. Long-time AD Castiglione hired Brent Venables and is retiring after this season. Oklahoma will be five-0, but those last seven games? Unless Dan Mullen, 4-0 at UNLV, wants badly to be back in the Power 4 and takes the UCLA job, if offered, I see UCLA and OK State as the two most likely to hire P4 assistant coaches or G6 head coaches. I believe we'll see a lot more coaching changes in 2025 than last season. Pants Penn State!

I don't believe the ACC had any choice but to follow the B1G, B12, and the SEC. Like the SEC, the ACC will require its members to play 10 games vs. P4 opponents. The B1G has no such requirement. https://www.cbssports.com/college-football/news/acc-votes-to-expand-football-schedule-to-nine-conference-games-10-power-4-games-each-season/

More on the pig slop that is Arkansas. https://sports.yahoo.com/college-football/article/misery-index-after-arkansas-ads-brutal-reality-check-about-program-hogs-show-its-actually-worse-with-stunning-collapse-04132585 Petrino, fired for consorting with and giving an SEC coed a job with the athletic department. Ark told Petrino to repair his cycle, get his motor running, and head on down the highway. 🤪A Hugh Freeze-like return to the SEC, where IT just means more, and no one gives a whip about yesterday's IT?

Here's some general information on Beaver Stadium, including where to go for pre-game activities. https://gopsusports.com/beaver-stadium-a-z-guide Quack Out Penn State!

In 1964, Oregon QB Bob Berry led then-unbeaten Les Casanova-coached Oregon to a 22-14 road win over Penn State. Oregon finished the season 7-2-1. 1-2-1 in the Athletic Association of Western Universities. Two of OBD's five home games were played in Multnomah Stadium in Portland. Not sure if the team flew, bussed, or hitchhiked to Penn State?

The Arch in Texas has not been golden. 😁 After a nap, next up for Archie is a team with a real D that cannot score points; Florida in the Swamp. The Florida D shut down Nussmeier and the LSU O, and did the same thing for most of the game to Carson Beck and Miami.

You have to go to the second page of QB Efficiency Rankings on NCAA.com to find Drew Allar at No. 74. 74 is certainly no Moore.😁

Heading into Week 5, the top 5 in QB Efficiency Rankings are all B1G boys. 1. Jayden Maiava - USC 2. Fernando Mendoza - Indiana 3. Julian Sayin - Ohio State 4. Demond Williams, Jr - Washington 5. Dante Moore - OBD In the preseason, SEC QBs were expected to be the cream of the crop. B1G QBs only so-so. 😁 Neuter the Nits!

Saturday Tradition on Indiana's Historic Win - Saturday TraditionIndiana puts a historic beatdown on top-10 Illinois teamIndiana absolutely demolished Illinois on Saturday, turning a battle of ranked teams into a historic embarrassment.

With the possible exception of Iowa, I agree. Indiana at Iowa on Saturday is an under-the-radar B1G game. Unfortunately, the game will be streamed on Peacock.

If offered, Kiffin would be off to Gainsville before you could say: Hotty Toddy. It would be Lane's 3rd SEC job. Florida has won national championships and has the resources and the homegrown high school talent to do so again. I don't see anyone without head coaching experience at the Power-4 level getting the gig. Napier moved on up from Louisiana U and hasn't done the job. The Arkansas AD, before this week's loss to Memphis, noted that the Hogs do not have the resources to be the SEC's champion in football.😧But, after losing to memphis it would be just like Arkansas to beat Notre Dame on Saturday. I think Will Stein has a much better chance of being offered a job in the Big Ten or with a Texas located B12 school, Baylor perhaps, than an SEC job.

Penn State's record in White Out games is 12-8. PSU has won the last five games. No wins over a top 10 opponent in the last five. With the new media deal, PSU does not always play the opponent they want to play in a White Out. 2024 saw the game vs. Ohio State as the Big Noon game. Ohio State was the WO game PSU wanted to play. Instead, the WO was against Washington. The five straight WO wins include last season's PO win against SMU. James Franklin and PSU's biggest WO win came in 2016 when the Nits defeated Ohio State 24-21. Two-loss PSU won the B1G that season, but one-loss Ohio State was chosen for the PO. Ohio State was mugged by Clemson. Penn State was beaten by USC in the Rose Bowl, 52-49, Clay Helton's SC high-water mark. PSU got what it wanted this season. A WO game vs. top 10 Oregon. James Franklin's record vs. top 10 teams is 4-20. 1-15 against top 5-ranked teams, with the win coming over Ohio State in 2016. I doubt that the WO crowd on Saturday will be louder than what OBD has experienced in Seattle and Salt Lake City before the game turned into a blowout vs. Utah. Big Ten coaches voted Beaver Stadium as the loudest in the conference. Josh Pate, among many others, not caring about giving the nod to newbie OBD, ranks Autzen No. 1.

The OK fumble returned by the Tigers for a TD should not have been overturned.
