Posted September 2, 20231 yr Thought I would start a thread for all the other games across the country today CU looked pretty decent during their first drive, probably helps that TCU was giving them way too much respect.
September 2, 20231 yr TCU-CU game highlighting early the annual divergence in PI penalty discernment between conferences. Big12 refs swallow the whistle from time to time......Pac12 crews in recent years appear to be paid per flag.
September 2, 20231 yr Author Not impressed by Morris for TCU, has missed some throws, bad interception, he's a big downgrade from last year.
September 2, 20231 yr Moderator 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. Edited September 2, 20231 yr by DrJacksPlaidPants
September 2, 20231 yr Is it just me or do others find themselves rooting against coach Sanders? His ego and arrogance is a huge turn off to me. I usually root for P12 teams, struggling with this one though

I usually root for P12 teams, struggling with this one though That's called black confidence. Willie Taggart was like that too. The difference? Well I think you are seeing the difference. Don't mistake black style for arrogance. Until the 90s, black men were invisible. All that "clowmanship" isn't arrogance. It's regular life in many black neighborhoods. Do not mistake style as character. They are completely different. Sanders is all character. I mentioned I believed Sanders would be successful. Because I know Sanders is a man of character. I ignore the bravado when I talk to black men, I pay attention to what they say and what they do. But I grew up around it (obviously), so I know what to look for. One of the greatest experiences I ever had was moving to Eugene and recognizing people I was told were racist weren't. Because they didn't judge my style. They sought and found out who I was...they vetted my character.
September 2, 20231 yr Author Hey...huge props to Colorado, they played discipline football, Sanders looks like an incredibly mature QB who has a full command of his offense, Hunter is a stud, just incredibly inspired play by them.
September 2, 20231 yr Author I'll be interested to see how Texas ends up against Rice, only up by 7 in the 2nd quarter, think they are massively overrated once again, but could be wrong of course😅. JT Daniels with Rice now in what seems like his 10th team. Edited September 2, 20231 yr by spartan2785

September 2, 20231 yr Moderator Cal is tied with North Texas 14-14, beginning of 2nd quarter. Channel surfing, so I really don't know how Cal looks.
September 2, 20231 yr Moderator BSU mounting a come back, back to back scores right out of halftime. UW's offense is all Michael Pennix, if he goes down with an injury they're toast.
September 3, 20231 yr Moderator Cal surprisingly put up 58 points! I know it's North Texas they were playing but still, I'm a little shocked.
September 3, 20231 yr Wouldn't it be great for the PAC12 to sweep week one? I can't watch UCLA play because Spectrum and Disney are still fighting. If this doesn't get fixed soon I'm going to miss some Ducks games or have to get fubo tv...in the meantime I'm sure spectrum will prob eat refund the Disney portion of my cable contract for now...yea right.
September 3, 20231 yr Moderator Matt Rhule getting the Scott Frost treatment hilariously at Nebraska for continuing the tradition of 1 score losses. Scott Frost trends on X after Matt Rhule's disastrous Nebraska debut CLUTCHPOINTS.COM Nebraska Cornhuskers football fans had flashbacks to former coach Scott Frost during Matt Rhule's awful debut vs. Minnesota.

September 3, 20231 yr I'm not able to watch the game live, catching it on ESPN game cast but the Beavers seem to handling SJSU ok. It's not a runaway but I think SJSU is a much better team than any FCS team. The new QB Ulagalelei is having a nice outing (so far) at 9-11, 109 yds and a TD. Boy, is the soon-to-be-extinct Pac-12 loaded with good QB's this year. 21-3 Beavers at the Half. Edited September 3, 20231 yr by Mic

Well done Butters Yeah, I wish Butterfield well. As a former Duck whom things just didn't work out for I expect him to play well for his team. Oregon is so so rich right now in QB talent.

September 5, 20231 yr Author Looking like Clemson might be going down, pretty sloppy play by them overall, not that impressive at all, Duke has not played a perfect game by any stretch yet up two TDs. Should jump up a spot if that holds.
September 5, 20231 yr Moderator Not looking good for Clemson playing the Dukies. Lincoln Riley's younger brother has surely goosed the O, right? FSU has to be loving this. Ditto, the Domers.
September 5, 20231 yr Moderator On 9/4/2023 at 11:13 PM, Mic said: When's the last time Duke beat Clemson? I don't know other than for this evening. Duke 28 Clemson 7. A 5 game Clemson winning streak over the Blue Devils comes to an end. 2 top 10 teams go down in week 1. 5. LSU and 9. Clemson. The ACC went 2-1 against the SEC. The Pac-12 went 1-0. clemson+vs.+duke - Google Search WWW.GOOGLE.COM
