College Football

1. Are Notre Dame’s CFP hopes over?
Yes. Yes they are.
2. Should Leonard Fournette really consider taking a year off to get ready for the 2017 Draft?
No. No he shouldn’t.
3. Do the Gators have the blueprint?
I think they do. Look at what they’ve done. Last year they were one of the worst teams in the country. They fired head coach Will Muschamp and brought in Jim McElwain. The Gators are 5-0 and they’ve cracked the top 25. My point is that when something isn’t working, its time to change it. I think Al Golden should have been fired after last season, but he’s back. Theres no reason Miami should have lost to Cincinnati. With a big matchup against FSU coming up, Al Golden better figure it out. UF might have figured it out.
4. Why did you doubt Alabama?
Admit it. You did. You thought Alabama was done. Then they dropped 38 on Georgia. Shame on you. Apologize.
5. Are you impressed by the teams in the top 25?
You are? Well you shouldn’t be. Ohio State struggled against Indiana. TCU is playing so many cupcakes, they might as well be sponsored by Entenmann’s. Baylor played Texas Tech and even Michigan State didn’t look great against Purdue, although the Big10 is a very competitive conference.

1. This Week Was Boring.
We’ve been spoiled so far this season with nail biters and close games. This week was a stark difference where there weren’t any close games at all. The best we got was the Oklahoma St-Texas game and Florida-Tennessee but who was watching those games? Not me.

2. My, how the mighty have fallen.
Oregon was a top ten team and now they just let Utah drop 62 points on them and they’ll be dropping out of the Top 25 for the first time since 2009. I said this a few weeks ago and I still believe it to be true: Mark Helfrich went into the offseason without a real contingency plan for Marcus Mariota going to the NFL. Either that or he believed in his coaching a little more than he should have.

3. TCU is a fraud.
I remember in 2005, USC played Oklahoma in the National title game and beat them 55-19. A lot of people (myself included) felt that Auburn should have played USC and they would have played a lot better than Oklahoma did. The point is, TCU has a really easy schedule and even if they win out, they don’t deserve to be in the top four. They barely beat Texas Tech and they’re not even among the toughest of TCU’s opponents.

4. Leonard Fournette is a superhero.
This dude isn’t human. He’s running all over teams and putting up historic numbers. I can’t wait to see what he does against Ole Miss and Alabama.He might be the best college running back since Adrian Peterson.

5. Why isn’t anyone talking about Northwestern?
The Wildcats are 4-0 and don’t have any juggernauts on their schedule. They’re already ranked 16 in the country and should be able to crack the top 10 soon if they keep it up. I’d be interested to see if they can win the Big Ten West and play for the conference title.

 

1. Notre Dame may have won a battle, but will they win the war?
Last week against Texas, the Fighting Irish lost their starting running back, Tarean Folston, for the season to an injury. This week against Virginia, they lost their starting quarterback, Malik Zaire, for the season as well. They have some tough opponents going forward and it’ll be interesting to see how the Irish handle themselves with DeShone Kizer under center.
