FBS Week 3

[marenlee]

ECU is really taking it to Virginia Tech. They're up 21-0 late in the 2nd quarter. Should be at least 28-0 but a LOT of questionable calls going VT's way. Also Georgia Southern is disappointing me against Georgia Tech. They're down 35-10 near halftime.

[bisonaudit]

Those West Virginia unis really make Maryland's look good.

[HerdBoy]

WYO playing Oregon pretty tough so far.

[marenlee]

Wow. WYO up 7-0.

[HerdBoy]

Wow. WYO up 7-0.

Nice pass to the corner of the endzone.

[semobison]

Wyo 7 Oregon 7, early 2nd qtr. Wyoming had a 96 yard scoring drive to take the early lead. That's keeping Oregon's fast pace offense off the field!

[JMB]

Wow. WYO up 7-0.
"Not so fast my friend". Ga Southern 38 Ga Tech 35

Ga southern dumped the flexbone.

[JMB]

I forgot Willie Fritz is at Ga Southern. Probably explains the offensive change.

[marenlee]

Looked like Southern was going to lock it up, but a bad pitch by the QB gives Tech the ball. They're driving with a minute left.

Give Southern credit for fighting back...

[marenlee]

Looks like Southern can't get rid of that knack of folding at the end of the game :D Same thing happened at NC State, NDSU etc.

[HerdBoy]

Oregon 27 - WYO 7.

[Hammersmith]

VT goes down 28-21

making the big 10 look even shittier

Maryland loses to West Virginia...Washington beating Illinois 28-3...Bowling Green beat Indiana...Miami OH playing Michigan close.

The Big 10 is an FCS conference this year. Seriously, how is that entire conference so bad?

And Minnesota is losing to TCU 17-0 1st half. Too bad Kill and company couldn't buy out that game like NC State, he could have added another OVC or Sun Belt team to keep the 6 win dream alive.

[Hammersmith]

Craig Bohl's personal 26 game win streak goes down in flames. Wyoming loses 48-14 to Oregon.

[natstar1]

Without the jokes what is Minnesota's best non conference regular season win the last 15 years?

Alabama-2004

Nevermind you said regular season. No idea.

Had to be during Mase's tenure

[natstar1]

Reading twitter the Gophers had 10 players on the field and either called a TO and then gave up a TD, or just gave up a TD.

[natstar1]

Had to be during Mase's tenure
IIRC they would never play anyone decent when Mase was there. They were always 4-0 and the best team they would have played was a mediocre MAC team.

ISU up 7 in the 4th.

[B. b. bison]

Indiana State beats Ball State 27-20

[Bisonguy]

ISU takes the 20-17 lead over Iowa after the Hawkeye coach tried to ice the ISU kicker.

[Bisonguy]

NDSU. The best football team in the state of Iowa.

Either call the timeout before they kick or don't

[natstar1]

Either call the timeout before they kick or don't

they did, hard to prevent the long snapper from hiking it

[marenlee]

UTSA is an interesting team. Played tough against Arizona last week. Now they're playing Oklahoma State and driving. They have a great home and away schedule for a team that is only a few years old.

[THEsocalledfan]

Wow, horrible day for the B1G....but yet, the Bison are not good enough to play them.

Okay, and I tired of this and am going to be blunt: B1G, you are a joke and a shadow of your former self. And your answer to getting better, is refusing to play solid preseason competition like NDSU? Enjoy being horrible while we play for championships.

You suck. Enjoy watching two teams play in the Godaddy.com bowl and the whogivesashit bowl.

They'll still get their autobids to the Rose, Capital One, Outback January Bowls. Unfortunately for them, they're against the SEC and Pac 12. So they're gonna get crushed some more.

[unbison]

Cmmoooon Purdue

[missingnumber7]

Time for some new captains in texas. UCLA won the toss and defered, Texas chose to kick. UCLA gets the choice to start 2nd half. So unless Mora feels real generous Texas will kick to start both halves.

lol...this reminds me of my senior year playing HS football. The coaches would always rotate seniors to go up for the coin toss, except they would always send me. I always thought it was to make sure something like that didn't happen.

[marenlee]

New AAC members continue to represent the league well. Tulsa getting the crap kicked out of them by one of the worse FBS programs ever (FAU). 50-14. FAU was beaten 55-7 by Nebraska. And we know Nebraska isn't that great.

[marenlee]

A lot of people keep saying UMass should go to the AAC once they're kicked out of the MAC for football. I originally thought no chance in hell since they flat out suck. But after seeing SMU, Houston, Tulane, and Tulsa perform... They'd probably fit right in.

I have had this happen 3 times while reffing, all at the same small school in MN near the border and always the same team.

[marenlee]

Boston College up 27-17 over USC at the end of the 3rd. I thought this could be a tough game. I thought the USC win over Stanford last week was a fluke and USC is overrated.

[Hammersmith]

Brock looking pretty smart. Only one today who picked Texas(in a close game). Desmond, Lee & Kirk all picked UCLA in a blowout. Currently 10-all at the end of the 3Q.

[Bisonguy]

Texas just went up on UCLA 17-13, 5:13 remaining in the 4th

[Bisonguy]

And a fumble by UCLA. Texas ball on their own 25, 4:17 remaining.

[Bisonguy]

And just like that Texas goes 3 and out, UCLA returns the punt past midfield and scores on their first play. 20-17 UCLA

[missingnumber7]

Kentucky just about to send it to 3ot

[THEsocalledfan]

Okay, so UNI craps the bed again for a winnable FBS game. Check.

Iowa St beats Iowa. Check.

Who the hell is better than us?

[marenlee]

Sun Belt went 0-10 in OOC play officially cementing themselves as the worst FBS conference.

NDSU is actually better than NDSU. When the silly penalties get cleaned up, look out.

Ah thanks.. Didn't scroll through it just saw MN tcu and then cmu and Purdue thinking it was last weeks games.

[LITTLEGUYSINGREEN]

I'm thinking that NDSU would probably win the BIG this year and we all know that this years team is a shadow of last years team.
