Oregon driving for the winning score when they throw a boneheaded INT in the end zone and lose at home to Colorado. I wonder if Helfrich a survives what is shaping up to be the worst Oregon season in years.

If I was the Stanford - uh, anything - I'd be shouting TARGETING TARGETING TARGETING TARGETING.... but that's a bit messed up in that it's kinda hard to evaluate.

Brian Kelly said Kizer's performance was "not acceptable." And they'll have another QB playing soon.

Kizer was 22/37, 381, 2 TD, 1 INT.

Kelly seems like a special kind of stupid.
Look, any QB who can't lead his team to 40 points every game is obviously not up for the job.

I mean, I think it's targeting, but... shit man, it's hard to NOT target people when you've basically been raised to knock the ball carrier's block off since age 10 or whatever.

Of course you're rooting for piggy! I know you are a Longhorn but Arkansas never wins shit. Gotta keep this momentum going into the Bama game so they can shock the world!
Aggie is going to squash Piggy. They're seriously underrated.


Ole Miss up 17-0 to Georgia.

They're in serious trouble ...
Ole Miss blew big leads to Bama and FSU, but they did a lot of things right to build those leads. They might not lose another game.

Basically, the SEC West is what we thought it was, except Aggie and LSU have traded places. The SEC East is awful -- Tennessee is probably the class of that division, and they'd finish no better than 4th in the West.

I was going to criticize Rosen for throwing deep instead of going for 20-25 yards over the middle to set up a long FG attempt, but damn, the WR should've caught that.

I really thought this said -3.5... that would've been amazing (though that extra point kick must've given you some heartburn)
Oh yeah, he damn near shanked that.

Thought OFT was laying more points than that, such that the defensive TD on the final play would be a difference-maker.

Holy shit, where is OFT?!!

Truly a great moment in gambling history!!

What an amazing drive by the Hogs pissed away by ridiculous playcalling.
In fairness, it looked like they got the TD on third down on replay. At least, I'm pretty sure you'd call that a TD if you gave no weight to the ruling on the field. Certainly, the video was inconclusive.

And now it's a 7-point margin the other way.

Don't worry, they won't! Maddening but honestly can't expect a whole lot from a lower-tiered SEC team.

The guy is an absolute idiot, just a horrible coach. I grew up a ND fan. Never missed a game. And I can't stand him and have barely watched since the past few seasons to the point where I haven't seen a minute of ND football this year. Fire the guy, already.

Such a blowhard!! It's no wonder after he and BB hung out together a few offseasons ago, BB hasn't reconnected with him.
