The FS1 halftime show for CMU-MSU had Leinart, Meyer, and some former Bama player.

They were each asked to name their predictions for the final four teams.

Leinart had USC in, Meyer had OSU in, and the Bama guy had Bama in.

Homers.

Watched that game. Both teams forgot that you're allowed to play defense.

OSU vs Indiana was very underwhelming. Kyle McCord had a couple of moments, but mostly looked scared. I really pondered it driving home and Stroud was in a similar spot his first year, so there's hope. They play two lesser teams the next two weeks, so hopefully Day can get McCord on track. As it stands, I don't see us going undefeated, beating TTUN, or competing for a title. The big name 5 star QB coming in next year had to love what he saw today. Had Ewers stuck around (remember he had to leave to go start to keep his $1M NIL contract) he would definitely be starting.

Also, yay UNC! I bet on them today and used my free 50% bonus winnings on it.

that's been TCU's style for... ever? I dunno, I sure don't remember them playing D against UGA :)

Given how lame every other game was, OSU not covering is basically the 2nd biggest upset of the day :)

Wooooo! Not a perfect game, and hopefully our WR1 gets cleared to play this season. But a solid performance.

Iowa threw a passing touchdown on its opening drive of the season for the first time since 1991.

Someone should have let LSU know there's two halves in a game.

Well, they used to just get away with it. The question is why they're being caught now? :)

Colorado vs Nebraska is a hot ticket for the first time in decades?

I saw a couple of people hinting that Clemson could be on upset alert. I did not, and I don't think anyone, expect a blowout.

It definitely is, but I really think TCU was crazy overrated. 3 starters returned from last year's team.

Nebraska had a feisty loss to a ranked Minnesota team.

I would like to see Nebraska win because B1G, but also because I cannot stand Deion. Dude was an amazing ball player, but he's been showing his ass a lot since he got into coaching. And honestly, I think he needs to get humbled so he can be a better coach. Saban and Belicheck got humbled and went on to become legends. Meyer never got humbled and...

TCU was already crazy overrated last year, too. But yes, will be interesting if CO plays real teams later this year

Duke QB asks for extra time on assignment that was due the night of the game.
“Hey Riley, great game last night man,” the professor said in a video posted on Duke’s social media. “It was so exciting. Congratulations to you and all your teammates. But you know, [Duke defensive end] Wesley Williams and the other linemen who are in the class, they said they prepared ahead and did it ahead of time. So why didn’t the quarterback?

You cannot convince me that the NCAA is there to protect the kids. All they ever do is hurt them while turning a blind eye to abuses.
