I wonder if we can gamble on Deion leaving after this year?

Does he end up as a position coach in the NFL? Does he try going to the booth? I just don't see him caring about coaching once his kids are gone.

Kelly really upset at loss.

You speak in a fake southern accent and do cringe, close to homoerotic videos with potential recruits. I agree with you that you're not doing a good enough job.

It was weird rooting for USC over LSU, not just because "fuck the SEC", but also because USC is a B1G school.

Once again, preseason rankings are garbage. Teams shouldn't be ranked until after week 3-4.

#10 is 0-2 after playing two unranked teams.

Clearly the ACC was under-rated, and both Ga Tech + BC should be ranked instead of all those garbage SEC teams they pad the rankings with.

No argument. Although, Vanderbilt beat Va Tech. :D

During the ABC game on Sunday night, which was USC-LSU, they had an ESPN ticker running at the bottom. The top stories:
-GA beating Clemson
-SEC teams breaking a scoring record (I think just their conference) over the weekend against non-P4 opponents. (Yes, they said Power Four.)
-Then individual record breaking performances throughout the nation, which was just a small number.

That was it. Apparently, nobody else played and nothing of note happened. The SEC bias is very, very real and now that ESPN has lost all B1G and Pac-12 stuff, they're not pretending anymore.

AT HOME! That would have been a neutral stadium victory!

On a serious note, you think there's a lot of celebrating going on at ACC HQ since FSU is 0-2 and Clemson is 0-1?

I think a certain level of schadenfreude (I spelled the correctly on the first try!) is expected.

Also, why can't people call the two minute warning a two minute warning in college football? Like it's the same damn thing, why is it a "two minute timeout" or whatever?

I had not noticed that, but two minute timeout sounds dumb as hell.

Catt will like this one.
Check out the temporary stadium NW built as theirs is worked on. I think it's kind of awesome.

As temporary goes, why not? Nice view of the water once NW is getting blown out.
