The sun shines bright in the old Kentucky home.
'Tis fall and Wildcat fans are gay,
The corn top's ripe and the meadow's in the bloom
While the birds make music all the day.
The young folks roll on the little cabin floor,
All merry, all happy, and bright.
By 'n by hard times comes a-knocking at the door,
KEN-TUCK-EE. Unimaginably unranked Kentucky throttled #14 Mississippi State 28-7 to move to 4-0. The "Wildcats" will be ranked Monday.
Unranked (soon to be) Texas Tech destroyed #15 (soon to be un-) Oklahoma State in Stillwater forty-one to 17.
Iowa...Iowa, Iowa, winter, spring, summer and fall-all. Come, come, come dance with me at the beautiful Iowa ball...is holding on 17-14 over #18 Wisconsin. But watch out: The "Cheeseheads" are on the Iowa, first down, with 1:02 left.
Then my old Kentucky home, good night.
8:27 pm
2018 blows for the ACC.
Old Dominions, winless, in a bite conference, who re-started their football team in 2009, beat undefeated, Power 5, 13th-ranked Virginia Tech by two touchdowns, 49-35, in the old dominions. The "Monarchs" scored 28 points in the 4Q.
The "Longhorns" beat the "Horny Toads!" Beat 'em pretty good, too, 31-16. TCU was ranked 17th.
#21 Miam-uh beat FIU-uh 31-17. Miami led 31-0. FIU scored all of their pernts in the 4Q.
#5 Oklahoma is having a difficult time with Army. 21-14 at HT.
7:01 pm
Ohh boy.
"It just seemed like they really didn't want to be out there at some points," Michigan defensive end Chase Winovich said.
Nebraska head coach Scott Frost said something, I cannot recall exactly how he put it, consistent with that earlier this week..."Buying in," it was something about "buying in" to Frost's program, some of the players aren't.
“You’ve got two choices. You fight back and you work even harder, or you give up. I also told them that if anyone doesn’t want to stay on board this ride with us, let me know now and we can get off."
And that's bad. It certainly did seem to me today, just from "reading" the game, the penalties, the futility, that the "'Huskers" players were not putting everything into it. It is completely bewildering. Frost loved his players at Central Florida, and they him; he is Nebraska born, Nebraska bred, played there, he's all Nebraska ("and when I die, I'll be Nebraska dead"). Frost's "coming home" was greeted by the fan base as the second coming. How can Scott Frost and Nebraska not work?
The Cornhuskers (0-3, 0-1) are off to their worst start since 1945. They have lost seven in a row dating to last season for the first time since 1957.
4:31 pm
Pitt is now 0-6 against North Carolina in ACC play. 38-35 was the tale of today's heartache.
The University of Buffalo is now 4-0. The "Bills" routed Rutgers 42-13 in B1G country. Ruptures has actually won a game this year. Who the heck lost to Rutgers?...Texas State. Man, Texas State must blow. Since beating Texas State Rutgers has lost 52-3, 55-14 and 42-13. Man, Texas State must REALLY blow.
Nebraska is resembling Rutgers. The "Huskers" got husked by Wolves 56-10. Nebraska has lost to Troy and to Colorado at home and now this. Do those two great scholarly institutions play this year? That would be one to see!...No, they do not. Nebraska does play Perdue next Saturday!
Previously winless Perdue made boiled soup out of the previously unbeaten and 23rd-ranked (How? That is an outrage.) "Pigeons" of B.C. Good riddance to that ranking. AWFUL loss for the ACC.
The Catholic deacons of Notre Dame ministered at a forest wake today and conducted themselves as demons, 56-27.
In the Convict Convocation Miami leads the FIU "Collapsed Bridges" 14-0 early in the 2Q.
The "Orangemen" are making lap dogs of the "Poodles" 14-0 halfway through the 1Q.
Old Mississippi is gold over Kent 31-17 in the 4th in a game on delay.
Mary, a week after getting soiled by Temple's "Bowels," which was two weeks after said Mary had burnt orange Texas, I say, the Canada-ians tarnished the "Gophers" 42-13. (B1G's got some BAD teams.)
And...I think that's all I give a hoot about.
