So glad Boise State got beat in the first week

In other news... Mizzou plays Georgia on Saturday. Pretty pumped about going.



The zoo should be bonkers on Saturday night. It looks like Ogletree and Rambo definately won't be in. Not sure about Malcolm Mitchell yet for Georgia. Georgia does not have a good track record early on the road of late. I think they are easily beatable depending on how they play. Hope it's as good as Clemson/Auburn last Saturday.

If I were betting, I'd bet on Mizzou.

What are some other good match-ups this weekend?

Looks like a lot of games agains FCS teams this weekend.

I wonder if the Pirates of East Carolina can beat the Dicks, I mean Cocks, of South Carolina this weekend. I think Shaw is sitting, and after watching them against Vandy, I'm not impressed (sans Clowney).

I think Florida is at Texas A&M this weekend. Other than that I'm not really sure, lots of cupcakes getting mauled on Saturday.

Yeah, from poking around a few teams' schedules it looks like there aren't a lot of good games.

Speaking of good games...It looks like most conferences are going to move to 9 conference games. With this, means we're less likely to see series like Clemson vs. Auburn. I'm thinking the week 1 high profile games at neutral sites will be more common in the future. Like a bowl game to start the season matching Michigan vs. Alabama, Clemson vs. Auburn, etc....

If it were up to me CLemson and Auburn would play every year. It's been Peach Bowl good every time they go at it.

I still want Clemson and Georgia to play every year again too but alas, tis not the way CFB is going.

I'm toying around with the idea of picking a Missouri upset with 10 confidence points in my pick 'em league this week. Anyone feeling Auburn against Mississippi State?

what's the line on Auburn/Mississippi State?

I'd take Auburn in that one with a high degree of confidence before I see the spread.

Surprisingly, Auburn is a 3 1/2 point underdog.

Bummed that Auburn and Malzahn parted ways. I have no interest in watching another boring SEC I-form/Singleback team.

Yeah, that's what sucked about that game, because Clemson was still doing wacky stuff and then Auburn comes out looking just like Bama. I had to go look up what happened to Malzahn. Good for him that he got an HC gig, but with Florida back to being a pretty boring offense too the SEC just isn't as exciting as it used to be.

My favorite thing to happen in a football game is a pick 6. Go SEC.

That's when a coach selects six players to come out of the game, right? I'm new to NCAAF :oops:

Correct. Similar to a line change in hockey.

Is there a stat for standing tackles versus diving tackles in this sport?
