FSU's defense was damn impressive tonight. You can see the improvements just from comparing last year's score to this year's. FSU's offense moved backwards too much to have a realistic chance of winning the game. I compared them to LSU's team last year while watching - they hung around due to defense and had the opportunity to win, despite bonehead offensive plays
OSU got rocked, not surprising
I heard there was an incident with a whistle in the crowd in the Kentucky/Louisville game...like most people, I didn't waste my time watching it. Does anyone have more info?
Impressive comeback by Clemson after being down big early on against Auburn. Looks like the ACC frontrunners are Clemson and FSU
While Oklahoma won't drop in the polls as they faced the #5 team and won on the road, they still look suspect when playing a top tier team. I'm not sure if I can buy the hype surrounding them now, but there really isn't much competition in the Big 12 for them right now aside from Ok St.
I didn't catch UF vs Tennessee, but the results didn't shock me. UF doesn't look fantastic as a unit, but they could make things interesting in the SEC
BYU got absolutely MAULED by Utah. USC beat Syracuse. Colorado finally picked up a win. Washington St, Az St, UCLA, Washington all lost out of conference games.
Marcus Lattimore had a MONSTER game, but Scar barely beat Navy at home. Not a good showing, especially after they struggled against East Carolina
Notre Dame beat Michigan St. The only real upset this week and it shocked me. Who wants to bet ND will somehow be ranked tomorrow
FIU put a knocking on UCF in a game nobody watched. FIU is trying to become a contender in the state. How many states have 6 teams that could potentially be ranked at some point during the season? Recruiting in Florida is a mess. Florida State won the state championship last year, giving them control of the state. Where the mess really picks up is with Miami, USF, UCF, and FIU. USF defeated Miami last year and is ranked in the top 25 once again this season. UCF beat Georgia last year in a Toilet Bowl game, giving them quite a bit of recruiting power. FIU seems to be on the rise overall, and defeated UCF today. What obviously hurts FIU and UCF right now is their conference. Florida and Georgia should just create their own Big 8 conference with all of the realignment going on. That sure would be interesting
