Game Day Games of Interest
If Miami can’t fill their stadium when hosting a team with a cult following like A&M then they have problems.

Game Day Games of Interest
The one area in which they are not sloppy is ball security. They don’t turn the ball over.

Utah’s youth at QB is obvious today. Clemson is officially in big trouble as a program.

Colorado is pretty legit. It will be a one score game when they come to Autzen.

Texas Tech Visiting Locker Room
I don’t know what Cal’s setup is now, but it looked like a Jr.High locker room a few years ago. The Oregon locker rooms that are under the stands in the west end zone were pretty “cozy” as well. At the end of the day, players only care about playing. The locker rooms are for taking a leak and changing clothes.

They play like last year’s Iowa offense.

Texas Tech Visiting Locker Room
There is a walk-through video in this article. This doesn’t look any worse than some of the visiting locker rooms I’ve seen. First look inside visiting player locker room for Texas Tech football's 2023 opponents WWW.LUBBOCKONLINE.COM Red Raiders' opponents have air-conditioned trailer complex in east parking lot of Jones AT&T Stadium

Canzano on Mike Leach
You won’t find a TTU alum or fan from the Mike Leach era who believes anything Adam James or Craig James had to say about the “abuse” Adam apparently suffered. It’s a well known fact that he manipulated the entire story and TTU chancellor Kent Hance fired Leach because he wouldn’t write an apology letter. I would challenge anyone to read the emails from Adam James’s former coaches describing his character and work ethic. He even admitted in his own deposition that the trainer took him to the media room and said “stay here”. However, since the trainer was standing near the door of the electrical room, Adam said he “thought that’s where the trainer wanted him to stay”. He then proceeded to take a dramatic video of the room with his cell phone. The kid is a slimeball. He tried to ruin a coach’s career because he didn’t like being disciplined and he thought he wasn’t seeing the field enough. He got booed every time he touched the ball and was heavily booed by his own fans on Senior Day. The only person with less credibility is his father. The guy who said he received only “insignificant” benefits when he played for SMU basically laying the blame on Dickerson and his other former teammates for the teams demise. ESPN did themselves and the college football world a huge favor by washing their hands of that guy. Adam James is the kind of kid who was born on third base, but thinks he hit a triple. To this day he runs a company that his daddy started for him. He calls himself the co-founder, though. He’s still full of BS. Mike Leach, on the other hand, will be inducted into the TTU Hall of Honor this month when they host Houston. I doubt the university would do such a thing if they really believed he abused his players. I believe it’s their way of apologizing to his family.

Nearly 50% of FBS Schools Have an Aussie Punter
The link has a paywall, so I can’t read it. However, My alma mater is a D2 school and they’ve had Australian punters the last 10 years or so. All from Prokick Australia which I assume is what the article is about.

What IF the B1G Did NOT See This Coming?
I think Ohio State, Penn State and Michigan will always have great offenses. I also expect Wisconsin and Nebraska to improve once Fickell and Ruhle get a few recruiting classes under their belts. All it takes is a great QB and a few playmakers. Look at what Russell Wilson did for a Brett Bielema coached team. Their offense put up some big numbers.

Canzano: Finding Logic in a 74-Point Drubbing
Here’s my philosophy: When I pull my starters, I consider it a 0-0 game. This means my back-ups are going to try and score every time they get the ball.

Ducks Push PSU Around While Duck Pushes the Ground
I wonder how much of DL’s defensive scheme was shown during this game. The defense looked pretty vanilla on the first couple of drives.

Prime Experiment Working?
If Oregon and Colorado are undefeated and ranked going into week 4 then we might have a shot at beating out Clemson/FSU for College Gameday. I’ll be pulling for LSU tonight, but I’m not sure FSU drops very far if they lose. I know ESPN will want to jump on the popularity of the “Coach Prime” storyline, so that may work in our favor. However, USC will be in Boulder the following week, so they may wait. Their only competition for Gameday in week 5 is LSU at Ole Miss.

Sheduer is the front runner for the Heisman right now. He threw for over 500 yards against the #17 team in the nation.

GameDay Thread versus Portland State: Join Us!
I was at the 2012 Arkansas State game. This is very similar. Hopefully, Ty plays better than Bennett did in the 2nd half.

CU brought in a ton of talent. I think they’ll be a lot better once they play together more.

Week 1 Thread for Non-Oregon games
Kevin Mar and his crew are surprisingly not screwing up the TCU Colorado game. I just remember him hosing the Ducks on a few occasions. Especially the 2019 WSU game. I guess you automatically improve once you cease being a Pac 12 ref.

OBD Prediction Contest vs. Portland State!
Ducks 45-13 2 3 263 I think Oregon establishes the run game and the running clock will not make for an offensive onslaught. I also thing that they get 14 points off of the turnovers with a short field.

Utah vs. Florida Game Thread…
After downloading Sling I called and gave Spectrum the Lex Grossman treatment. Both companies are to blame, but Disney holds all the cards because they own most of the content, so I can’t really drop them.

Let's Just Petition for This...
I think a Southerner would be shocked at the size of Martin Stadium in Pullman. It’s like a high school stadium, but with a huge press box. Judging from the amount of fans Tennessee brought to Eugene, visiting fans from the SEC would probably fill 60-70% of that place by themselves. Getting to Pullman isn’t bad. I drove there from Spokane for the Duck game in 2014. They have students/fans set up on the side of the highway waving huge WSU flags every 5-10 miles or so. Getting out of Pullman after the game is another story. There aren’t many avenues to get out of town and every highway is only 2 lanes. It took us 3-4 hours to get back to Spokane after the game. Bad game day traffic is probably commonplace in the SEC because of the size of the stadiums. I’ve only been to Williams-Brice, but they open all lanes for travel in one direction to get to the freeway. Autzen is pretty easy. I always parked at the Masonic Lodge and traffic was usually cleared out in an hour.

Great! We get to watch Mario soil his bead sheets against Stanford while coaching a different team.

I have Spectrum as well. I signed up for Sling TV with their sports package and will be cutting the cord this weekend. It’s half the price of my cable bill.
