So #1 and #2 are taking care of business this week. Can't wait for the Oregon/UCLA game.

So, when it's 56-3 in the 4th quarter, will Saban still be passing and trying to "entertain" all of the fans who stay until the final buzzer?

Sick, sick catch by Kevin Norwood of Bama. One of the plays of the day.

The fact that Clemson is only up 6 to a Terps team that is the walking wounded is a huge surprise.
Terps D is still pretty solid, especially in the redzone.

Maryland is a great example of what could be if not for all the injuries.

@therealJeffJ97: Got confirmation from two people at the game, Nathan's (Scheelhaase) father was indeed cuffed, arrested and taken from the stadium after fighting MSU fans

Took Duke +13.5, Maryland +14.5, Alabama -28.5, Michigan State -11.5, Notre Dame -17.5 and NCSU +29.5.

Some late day spread drama...

I love it when VT gets beat... they're always overrated every year.

Both Maryland and N.C. State pooping these spreads away late. Granted, neither deserved to cover, but that's why you don't bet the ACC.

After being spanked by Bama, look at their next 6 wins. No good teams and none impressive. They got to 14th by sheer attrition...and should be out of the top 25 after this week.

Any idea why the TT/OU game got taken off in favor of the WS? I guarantee more people would watch that over the half hour pregame BS...

That's what I thought they would do, at least the pregame.
BS they move the football game.

I am sure the football game on Fox will get better ratings than the WS.

BTW, LSU has to be sleep walking, only up 7 to Furman.

It's closer than people think.

The baseball game hasn't even started. The football game would surely get better ratings than the 45-minute pregame show...

I remember someone saying Oregon was in trouble the day their offense fails to show up.
