From the Dolphins game today in the parking lot....damn

They very well could. I count 8 top 25 that lost yesterday. Even better than that top 4, in the show 2 weeks ago, Desmond Howard had Pittsburgh as a playoff team.

It seems Bama is good for one game like that every year.

I miss this guy being a coach. I am willing to bet he will not coach again with that kind of money. This is a classic

Upsets continue with Kentucky beating Florida Mild upset with Tennessee beating Pitt.

So, they decided to play some football after all.

I am not sure what else IU can do to itself in a game. This is pathetic. So many mistakes and they really have no answer for the Idaho offense. The are lucky to only be down 10-0. The big issue for this game is the offense cannot stay on the field. The defense is going to be out of gas

Houston was projected to be at least a New year's Day 6 teamthis year. They had to come from 14 down against UTSA last week. They were 14 down this week against Texas Tech, but TT was able to get the game to OT. They held Houston to a FG in the second OT series, and scored a TD after that to win. Texas A&M, ranked 6th loses to Appalachian State. Looks like a season very similar to last year where a lot of teams will be moving in the rankings.

Washington State goes in to Madison and beats Wisconsin. Pretty cool to see the WSU Head Coach come back to his home State to get a win.

Pyne may have to start. That injury to Buchner did not look good. Maybe a collarbone? The O Line is killing them. Rushing 4 most of the game and getting pressure should not happen. This was a pethetic showing. Announcers call Mayer Buchner's favorite receiver, but the dude was open on that pick 6.....WIIIIIIIDE open actually, but Buchner knew where he was going before the snap. They did not go to Mayer much late in the Ohio State game, and did not go to him enough here.

I think he gave full control to Rees with the offense. I think it was him that stuck with Coan the whole game.

Illegal shift is likely the call on the offense as having a guy moving early would be a whistle before the snap, or if it is snapped, the play is whistled dead. Live ball penalty on both teams results in offsetting penalties, replay the down.

The TD drive was a good one, but just not a fan of what Rees is trying to do. JUST missed what would have been a huge play before the half. Defense is ok, I just question many of the stunts; bringing guys from a long way on the blitz and they are just not getting close. Pass coverage is soft too.

For the teams that don't have their own topic. Texas Alabama was fun to watch. I guess they both could not lose lol I was telling friends during the game that Texas settling for 2 FG's and missing another when they had great drives or field position was going to bite them. The penalties.......so many flags; all good calls, but I don't ever remember a Bama team being that undisciplined. Texas' defense is really good. Bama's pass defense struggled. But Texas could not take advantage like they should have. Does Bama stay at 1? I say they do, but we shall see.

Interesting....so 2 differences compared to Indiana's. Here it's 35, and the score does not matter once that threshhold is crossed.

I will take a stab......Seeing that you did not include where the hold was (what yard line....just seems like that would be important), my guess is the hold and the PF offset, and the B Coach gets flagged for interfering, or whatever the exact call is, so mark that one off.

O line was bad......and honestly, the play calling was bad.....no adjustments for picking up blitzes, no recognoition by receivers to shorten routes with that much blitzing. And no halftime adjustments. Mayer could have been a bigger factor. Defense played really well, but just on the field too long. Stroud got hot and was tough to beat....using his legs to keep plays alive was huge. But THE difference was the OSU O Line.

yep...definitely is a call. That said, in the pregame meeting between the head coach and officials, possible trick plays should be part of the conversation in that meeting. It is the responsibility of the head coach to mention that play, and it would have been at that point the officials could have provided some insight on the deception. Is every official going to make that call? I would guess no.

That was an odd call....just looked like the officials were not on the same page. The telling the QB to wait moved away too soon.

Specific injuries and players named is a no no, unless you are the parent....thanks

Gritty performance by the Hoosiers. The o line will be a question mark. But Bazelak brings some stability to the QB position they have not had in a couple years. They have to do a better job of running the ball and tackling on defense. Now there are a couple games with Idahoe and Western KY they should win before going to Cincy.

This game for Purdue is huge. I also think it is for Penn State. It seems PS needs a good start to the season or they struggle the rest of the way. I felt the OT loss at IU set the tone for them a couple years ago. For Purdue, a huge stage for the home opener. Start off well will build confidence. I think the West division is wide open; who knows what can happen. If Purdue wins tonight, I would consider them to be in the hunt.

Is that a problem for you? I think I clearly explained why we have the guidelines in place.

It is not unusual for the IHSAA to determine a field is not suited for play. The judgment is usually about grass field that are in bad shape due to a lot of use and rain. I am curious if this has been a part of any discussions on North Meridian.
