Unofficial Saturday (10/2) Non-PSU games thread

[psuguy43]

First time watching Notre Dame, huh?

I typically make it a point not to watch them...

 

[Psugo823]

I'm not sure who he is predicting. VT? USC? UNC?

Their schedule is tougher than Cincinnati going forward, but if they win today I don't exactly see anybody that's going to be super tough either.

CHANCES to lose. Of course they will be favored but sure, VT and NC have a chance. Cincy there is no chance to lose.

That incredible Offensive Line of Arkansas has led them to a prolific 1st Half against UGa - they've amassed a total of 78 yards on 21 snaps (just over 3 yards per play), 3 First Downs and zero points! That incredible running game of Arkansas' has gone for 40 yards on 15 rushing attempts (2.6 ypc). UGa is rolling them 24-0 after the 1st Half. Only thing Arkansas is proving is that they aren't that much better than the last several years and that their the most over-rated ranked team in the nation.

Update..... game is now over, the incredibly awesome.... unstoppable Arkansas Offensive Line guided their team to 143 Total Offensive Yards on 44 snaps (Their incredibly awesome run blocking guided them to 75 yards rushing on 29 rushing attempts - for a scintillating 2.6 yards per carry). As awesome as they are, it is somewhat shocking that they couldn't register a single point losing today 37-0 against Georgia.

Actually I think it's the other way. ND needs to win. If you look ahead ND has 2 chances to lose, but Cincinnati has zero chances to lose. I mean zero. As in all blowout wins.

True but ND doesn’t have a killer schedule either. Their toughest games are at Virginia Tech (3-1) next week and at home against USC (2-2) and North Carolina (3-2).

 

[GregInPitt]

Let's GO CINCY !!!

 

[psuguy43]

I can't cheer for ND. I can't do it. I want new blood in the CFP. I'll take an undefeated Cincy. We control our own destiny. They would take the ACC's spot. B10 and SEC will both be in

CHANCES to lose. Of course they will be favored but sure, VT and NC have a chance. Cincy there is no chance to lose.

This ND team has had a chance to lose every game until the 4th quarter vs Wisky. OT with winless FSU, last minute TD vs Toledo.

 

[CJFisJoePaII]

You got some issues if you start threads dunking on teams that PSU doesn’t even play. My Arkansas offense? Where did you come up with that genius. Michigan is thumping Wisconsin right now. Does that prove anything? Should they be ranked ahead of PSU? Do you sit around every Saturday looking at scores so you can start threads about teams that have nothing to do with PSU? Georgia’s defense is legit.

Yea, that's an incredible offense and Offensive Line as proven by their zero point output in losing to UGa 37-0 (putting up a grand total of 143 yards of offense and 75 rushing yards on 29 rushing attempts) - impressive stuff, yea PSU needs an offense and OL like that!

I'd love to play Cincy in a 2 vs 3 CFP game myself.

That illegal man downfield was a ticky tack call.

That illegal man downfield was a ticky tack call.

Oh well, makes up for the 2 obvious missed holds on a play before that

 

[jmorovich]

One thing I’ve always admired about Brian Kelly as a coach is the confidence he instills in his QB’s. No matter what mistakes they make he’s always got their back and they don’t have to look over their shoulders if they….sorry… I couldn’t keep typing that. I was laughing WAY to hard. Is there another QB Kelly can toss in after Cohn makes another mistake??

 

[dougt24]

bummer ... I did want to watch some of the Cincy ND game but here in the Salt Lake area the local stations are carrying the semi-annual LDS conference. Hate it ... guess I'll do yard work. Hoping the PSU game is carried locally tonight, if not might be a good excuse to go to a bar.

Best to check that the bars in SLC don’t close at 7pm.

 

[lazydave841]

Ole Miss burns 6 minutes, but their drive stalls inside the 10. Alabama uncharacteristically tackling very poor outside. Refs flagged OM three times on the drive, seem very happy about it.

DL and LBs hold on a 4th down. Bama ball.

 

[wolve1972]

Jesus, anybody that doesn't think this Cincinnati is real needs to start watching. Fickell's headed to a BIGTIME CF head coacing job

 

[Aardvark86]

The shit tackling in the big 12 is not to be believed.

 

[Big 0]

ND getting exposed.

Indiana won the stats against Cincinnati. Indiana's problem was turnovers.

 

[jmorovich]

If you would have asked me who the K-State coach was I would have said Bill Snyder. I feel like that will always be the right answer.

 

[Aardvark86]

True but ND doesn’t have a killer schedule either. Their toughest games are at Virginia Tech (3-1) next week and at home against USC (2-2) and North Carolina (3-2).

The uva tix I bought are declining in value by the minute.

 

[bdgan]

ND getting exposed.

Are you saying their narrow escape over FSU and Toledo wasn't a fluke?

 

[jmorovich]

ND getting exposed.

ND had been exposed all season (ex FSU and Toledo) but the voters failed to see it. They were losing 13-10 in the 4th quarter to Wisconsin. This isn’t a good team.

Kelly is one of those touchy-feely coaches.

Stanford 10-0 up on Oregon

Buckeyes beating Rutgers 17-0

Alabama with the ball after Kiffin went for it at his own 33. Another game where the defense is in this 3-2-6 and the offense is just pounding it. 1st and goal.

 

[psu00]

I laugh when they show Kelly on the sideline today. He’s wearing a white shirt and every time he gets mad his face goes that bright red color. He looks like a Cincy player in white shirts and red helmets.

 

[jmorovich]

I’m really digging these Stanford helmets

 

[GregInPitt]

Cincy D looks very good. I just don't like when they only rush 3 and give the over rated ND QB time. When they rush 3 they need to bring a 4th a little late to make sure the ND QB can't just stand there...........

 

[GregInPitt]

Cincy Fans take over Domer Stadium !!!!!!!!!!

 

[BW Lion]

They just announced that Joe Moorhead isn't calling the plays for Oregon. I hope it's nothing serious.

Per a school spokesman, Moorhead is being evaluated for non-COVID-related illness.

 

[GregInPitt]

I almost liked Kelly more when he was a swearing fool jumping up and down the whole game.

He looks more clueless now than what he could possibly be...........

I just don't get the 3-2-6, especially in the SEC. Maybe the Big 12 where D is optional anyway.

Nobody plays a finesse spread type offense in the SEC.

 

[CJFisJoePaII]

Butters doing Buttgers things........

 

[brupsu]

WTF is Sir Elton John doing making commercials for UberEats?

Make a buck where you can.

 

[Thus Spoke Mainer]

First time watching Drew Brees doing color on ND broadcast. He is TERRIBLE! Talk about a Captain Obvious!

 

[brupsu]

For anyone who wants to see what a good OL can do for an offense, check out Georgia's OL vs. Arkansas today.

I think they are all five star players

 

[Midnighter2]

Ugh - Stanford player with a narsty injury. Looked like his foot was going the wrong direction…. 🤮

 

[Alphalion75]

I think they are all five star players

Yep....UGA has a plethora of talent.

 

[GregInPitt]

Love how casual the Cincy QB is when he catches the hike in the shotgun and looks for his receivers. He sets up where he wants to throw from and immediately looks the field over and just slings it......

 

[lazydave841]

Alright hype machine. You sold me on their being 4 good sec teams this morning. I've now gotten the point.

Bama 21-0
