Random discussion of the games you are watching that don't have thier own thread.

Western Michigan offense has been sharp today. Really like Alex Carder.

Penn State looks like they are making a video titled, "How Not to Play American Tackle Football"

An entertaining game in Clemson so far. 21-21 at half. Auburn jumped out 14-0 and Clemson has rallied.

Also have an eye on Vandy/Ole Miss. Vandy is all over the Rebs. 21-0 at half. Houston Nutt is on the hot seat if they continue to perform like this.

What are you watching?

I turned it to Penn State/Temple for a minute and had visions of December 12, 2012 so I had to turn it

Clemson has some real talent on offense. OSU just missed out on Boyd a few years ago.

Penn State looks like they're back to the Zack Mills era. They just aren't a good football team.

And Houston Nutt is done.

Just a couple thoughts:

Penn State is not a good team at all. I've not looked at their schedule but depending on who they play I don't see them doing any better than 7-5 or 6-6.

And Kirk Ferentz just gets an lol.

Iowa's getting pasted. Not a good team this year. Generally, the Big Ten looks pretty bad this year, outside of the top 3-4 teams.

Big tests for Ohio State and Michigan State today. It could basically be the Huskers and Badgers and then a severe drop-off...

4th through 9th place could be just about interchangeable with none of those teams losing less than 4 conference games...ILL, NU, PSU, UM, MSU/OSU. It's clear IU, PU and Minnesota are just awful.

The depth in the Big 10 just isn't there this year. Yikes. Penn St and Iowa are atrocious.

Like Clemson's team, and obviously despise Auburn and Chizik. Really hoping the Tigers can hold on.

Penn State takes the lead and Iowa is trying to come back.

As I type, beautiful pass from Vandenburg to Martin-Hanley for the TD. Iowa down 3.

Annnd Penn State might blow it. Temple moving down the field and they'll tack on a personal foul for good measure. Temple inside the PSU 40.
