It was the epitome of targeting with their bullshit rules. I'm not a fan of the rule at all, but that was definitely worthy of if

Didn't look like he dove at someone's legs. Looked like he tripped and fell over.

Agree with that. Should definitely have been helmet to helmet.

Brian Von gorder can literally go die in a fire. Worst defensive coordinator in college football. Straight garbage

That was a fun game! If this week is any indication, this could be a crazy as fuck season.

ND, LSU, Oklahoma down.
Tennessee should have.

So perennially overrated teams were once again overrated?

But really, this opening weekend has been a lot of fun, but definitely adds credence to the argument that preseason polls are idiotic.

I thought it looked like he just tripped as well.

They just don't seem to have the athletes on defense they've had the past few years, especially in the secondary

They have plenty of talent on this defense. The scheme is just god awful. BVG is straight garbage

What a fucking first week of college football. Can't remember any time in my life with that many good games on the first week.

Hope you enjoyed because next week is going to suck. Sportscenter was promoting the Saturday prime time game which is Virginia Tech and Tennessee

Yeah next week's games suck. I was just looking at the schedule, there's not one game I GAF about, besides OSU/Tulsa obviously.

Thankfully, I've got a wedding to go to next Saturday.

Bad news is I have a wedding the following weekend as well..during OSU/Oklahoma SMH

you make a good point regarding their scheme, but I just didn't see the lateral speed of the linebackers like I have the last few years...and their d-backs are mediocre at best.

Agreed.

What pisses me off the most, is the couple getting married are huge OSU fans. Both alums, both psychotic about osu football, the bride even had a brother who was Brutus for some time. But they still decided to have the wedding on OSU's biggest non-conf game of the year. Ugh

This is pretty random, but are the bride's initials "EA" by any chance? I'm not counting middle name because I don't know the middle name.

FSU's offensive line looks terrible. A lot of penalties on them, not doing anything in the running game and not protecting their qb.

Glad they finally called that against ole miss. They're jumping at the LOS every snap. That's gotta be a penalty.

this weekend proved that rankings are useless. Bama at #1 is a joke and the rest of the top 5 lose
