I'd take Boise and Cincinnati by double digits over Oklahoma with their backup qb playing. They couldn't beat BYU with him. Boise and Cincy are both better than BYU. ON the blue turf and Landry Jones playing, Boise would beat OU by 21. USC?? They barely beat a down Ohio State team this year and barely beat a Notre Dame team that plays zero defense. What's so great about them??

Damn Hurricanes

Alabama looked like crap. Couldn't get in the end zone at home against Tennessee? There are really no good teams in the entire country. There are just some that are better than others but none that are really good. Bama looked like crap today. Florida looked like it against Arkansas and LSU. Texas could barely beat Oklahoma without Bradford. USC had their hands full with Notre Dame and Ohio St and lost to Washington. Miami couldn't handle Clemson at home. Virginia Tech lost to a Georgia Tech team that completed one pass in the entire game. This is pathetic.

there are some Great defenses but those teams have very average offenses.
this team reminds me very much of Bama's 92 NC team. #1 defense in the country and Don't lose the game on offense. do just enough to win.

I don't think the defenses are all that great. I think it's playing against pathetic offenses that's making them look better. Damn Bama should have lost today. Two blocked field goals in the fourth.

Iowa looks like they are either going to OT or possibly losing here. MSU just executed the hook and lateral to perfection.

I know Texas annually sodomizes Mizzou but they look a bit more like themselves tonight. I think they're pretty good and by the time we get to mid-November they will have been aptly challenged.

Sounds like Mich. State stuff. What did Griese apologize about? Juan Montoya, and Nascar?
