This is straight ugly. Michigan getting spanked, at home no less. Texas has been dominant the whole afternoon.

Just checking in with Notre Dame I hate this so far

[โ€“] ToasterOverlord@fanaticus.social 4 points 1 week ago (1 children)

I don't understand why this is as close as it is. Does Marcus Freeman only get the team hyped up for big games? I know full well how painful that is, as that was Texas under Tom Herman...

[โ€“] Wakmrow@hexbear.net 2 points 1 week ago (2 children)

I don't feel like that's a theme but maybe Notre Dame and a&m aren't as good as they were hyped? Leonard looks bad.

This sucks football is stupid

Classic Freeman. Play down to the competition. Im not sure he is gonna turn it around. He's been in it this long he should be able to win this with some kind of ease, or at least win.

And like last year or that year before beating Duke at the last second. We just can't play week in, week out. Always a stumble against a team we should beat.

Is Iowa without Brian actually decent offensively? Y'all we may be fucked

[โ€“] anhydrous@lemmy.world 5 points 1 week ago (1 children)

After one quarter, Baylor has -10 net yards.

Texas is nasty!

Welcome to the SEC.

[โ€“] ToasterOverlord@fanaticus.social 4 points 1 week ago (4 children)

I will only feel welcome in the SEC once Texas beats Georgia. Hopefully we can do that once or twice this season.

I'm thinking that ^17^Georgia Tech at Syracuse is lowkey the most interesting matchup in the early window.

[โ€“] ToasterOverlord@fanaticus.social 4 points 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week ago) (2 children)

^2^Texas at ^12^Michigan

Super frustrating to have a touchdown taken away because of a holding penalty, and then missing the FG. But there will be plenty of opportunities to score. Although I'm a fan of both teams, the Michigan team is a husk of what they were last year and I really expect my Longhorns to push them around, especially later in the game

Edit to add: I really do not like the CGI Allstate FG nets. But I guess it has me talking about them, so advertising works, I guess?

So we lose Baxter in the preseason, and Blue goes down in this game. :( It's a good thing Wisner has stepped up, otherwise the RB room would be pretty bare. Hope Blue is okay.

Very uncharacteristic of Loveland to cough up the ball like that. Normally I'd be real annoyed about it, but they're playing my alma mater so shrug

[โ€“] ToasterOverlord@fanaticus.social 4 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Man, I wish I could pay more attention to the ^20^K-State @ Tulane game. Really curious how the Wildcats have struggled so much in the first half so far

Actually tuning away from my Texas game because it's so lopsided. K-State just got a scoop n' score in this one. I was hoping the Green Wave could hold on to their lead but this is probably the turning point in this game

Here for CU @ NU. Flu shot yesterday is making me feel like shit and I want to feel hype but will settle for sitting upright. gbr

[โ€“] wjrii@lemmy.world 4 points 1 week ago (1 children)

I am here for anybody playing CU. Deion is not a good person, and doesn't even have the courtesy to limit the damage to football players like your average sociopath coach.

[โ€“] Fridge@reddthat.com 2 points 1 week ago

Starting to show the cracks I've suspected were there. Shedeur leaving the game early with an entourage should embarrass CU fans; they deserve better.

[โ€“] ToasterOverlord@fanaticus.social 3 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Real impressed with what I've seen from Raiola so far. Future looking bright for y'all

Is this start for real or am I in a fever dream?

[โ€“] g0d0fm15ch13f@lemmy.world 3 points 1 week ago

Looks real to me! Go 'skers

[โ€“] g0d0fm15ch13f@lemmy.world 3 points 1 week ago

Just tuning in, looks like the Arky OSU game is a good one. Also nice job to Texas for establishing SEC dominance over the B1G

[โ€“] 1hitsong@lemmy.ml 3 points 1 week ago (2 children)

USC vs Kentucky! Go Cocks!

pfft. They said 10% chance of rain. Looks more like 40% to me. ๐ŸŒง

Miami doing to FAMU what Iโ€™d expect Miami to do to FAMU. Thankfully no ND/NIU vibes.

Samford @ Florida

DJ Lagway starting and looks mostly like he should versus a middling FCS team, but this Florida team is still very inefficient. Billy doesn't get fired this week, but he's not restoring much faith either.

[โ€“] ToasterOverlord@fanaticus.social 2 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Just curious, is there a good week for him to be fired? Especially since the back of the schedule is such a gauntlet, it seems like it would set up an interim for failure.

[โ€“] wjrii@lemmy.world 2 points 1 week ago

A lot of people think if he loses to UCF that'll do it. Nobody really gives a shit how the interim does. The new coach will either be a huge splash or will lose the class and Billy's top 'croots.

Billy's only, and I mean ONLY chance is to win five+ and have Lagway look like next year will involve Heisman chatter.
