ND destroyed Penn State 41-17

The score was ugly, but I have to say that had PSU limited the mistakes and finished their drives the game would have been much more competitive. I don't think we could've beaten ND, who is an excellent team, but I think it would've been a 1 or 2 score game. The stats are actually very even, but the mistakes killed us. That's what sometimes happens when a young team goes on the road for a big game.

Looks like your Horns may not get it done tonight, damn! I was so hoping you guys would be undefeated and number one when you guys enter Lincoln. I hope Colt and your offense can get some big drives together.

Those moves were the beginning of the end. The last few years the Noles have been ranked higher based on reputation. We've bought in some exceptional runners (Booker, Washington, Jones) who have not had a good scheme built around them.

I still like Weatherford who showed dramatic improvement throughout last season. Rix backslid for 5 years so I guess I'm easy.

Was it here or The Sporting News forum that somebody actually predicted Arizona would give LSU trouble?

Here by some Stoops fans. The PAC-10 right now is basically USC and everyone else. The SEC with UT and LSU is flexing it's muscles early this year.

although I'm not 100% convinced that UGA will lose the game even with a couple picks...

Good job - you called this one right - UGA had 3 picks.

UGA's defense really stepped it up tonight. The SEC is going to be brutual this year with LSU, Auburn, UGA, UF and UT all top ten teams for much of the year.

Makes one wonder if Texas at this point is really the #2 team. I think that USC has reloaded better than Texas at this point.

I try...

UGA has probably the 2nd best D in the SEC (behind Auburn)...

their offense doesn't have to be great until next week.

Well, as long as Daddy is running the team there's no chance that the OC position will change. Bobby gets a pass for being there so long and being a Good Old Boy but I have to wonder how it will take for the AD to get tired of getting their ass ripped by the boosters and alumnae before he demands changes.

Well the thing about FSU is that they will struggle in a game against Troy and then come back and rip teams like NC State, Maryland and Clemson...

I really don't know who else looks like a contender.
Its a long season but at this point OSU looks really good.

yeah buddy...

Hey let me put it too you this way...

In 3 weeks this is a much better game, probably with Texas winning it.

Colt McCoy is going to be a GREAT QB. Of that I have absolutely no doubt.

Sure at some point MCCoy will put it together but for right now Troy Smith is the real deal.

He played like a senior and I was proud of his classy post game interview.

And he has a cannon of an arm and did a great job with his reads.

Even three weeks from now if we were to play them again Buckeyes still win.
