2017 College Football season is here

I was sure glad to see TCU beat OSU. That was a great game. I was really surprised but Kirk Herbstreit called the TCU game just as it went down hours before the game. He even went on to say that he predicts TCU to be very competitive for the Big 12 championship.

I will say that I the TTU and Houston game was not the shoot-out that everyone thought it would be. I was shocked that the defense for both teams made he difference. If I would have said that the TTU defense would win a game last year I would have been committed. They have come a long way.

Not taking anything from TCU, they're solid and scare me a bit as an OU fan.

But there was some shall we say...questionable play-calling from the O-State OC.

If you can't break the cover-2 (mainly from a nickel formation) with the run, get that big TE or a slot receiver over the middle and mis-matched on the LB who's left to fend for himself. But, they just kept running and running instead.

So, their big-time guys were doubled all night long.

Vandy almost pulled off the upset over Bama....that was close!

Sometimes you get what you ask for. Their players talking trash the week prior to was uncalled for and completely unjustified given Vandy's complete and utter lack of performance over the past...80 years or so.

Vandy needs to learn the Kentucky football example. When your team wins, you celebrate, but you don't get cocky about it. I give the Wildcats all the props in the world for being humble in winning (football at least) and looking forward to the next game instead of talking trash.

NC State winning should not be a surprise to anyone. NC State almost always plays FSU competitively; FSU's first loss in the ACC was to NCSU.

FSU, stick a fork in them, they are done. Feeling better about Duke playing them.

I didn't know Vandy was talking trash. Maybe their parents should've told them when they little about pocking a bear with a dull stick....not a good idea.

I'm with ya on Kentucky, I thought they were gonna win, was hoping they would.

I get to go to the Washington State vs USC game this Friday. I'm pretty excited about it, should be a shootout.

He's a Bama fan, but funny. And this shows the trash talking that was done by Vandy.

Miss State/Auburn can be a really good game
Clemson should beat Va Tech, but Va Tech is dangerous; I won't be surprised if Clemson loses
Miami at Duke, historically they play tight, Miami's secondary is 'meh' and Duke QB is very good

Georgia at Tennessee.

Regardless of how good or bad either program is, this is always a good game and tends to go well into the 4th quarter.
