That's going to do it here at Publocc. Looks very much like UGA is in control against ND and will win. A great day for me with the City rampage and the humongous Pitt victory. Good night.
#21 Virginia dominated the second half and put away FCS Old Dominion 28-17. No plus for the ACC.
#16 Oregon beat Stanford 21-6 in Palo Alto. Not as badly as Central Florida, losers to Pitt today, chopped the "Trees" in Borelando last week. Oregon, wanna play Pitt. "Panthers" ain't scaid a no "Ducks."
#12 Texas is in a dicey game with Oklahoma State in Austin. It's 28-23 "Longhorns" early in the 4Q.
Texas just scored to get some breathing room, 36-23, over Okie State, 11:44 left 4th.
#3 Georgia has taken the lead on Notre Dame in Athens. It's 13-10 with 4:21 left 3Q.
Notre Dame appears to be fading in Athens. Georgia with the ball on the ND 15, 13:23 to play. Plenty of time but "Irish" have not proved they can score again against "Bulldogs." A FG will keep the "Irish" in striking distance; a TD however probably takes it out of reach for ND...And Georgia scores the TD to go up 20-10 with 13:19 left. "Bulldogs" have outscored the "Irish" 13-0 in the 2nd half.
Nebraska has made it 21-28 at Illinois. 7:47 left third.
San Jose State could embarrass the vaunted SEC if they can hold on in Fayetteville against "Sooie Pig." "Earthquakes" lead 24-17, 9' left in game.
Colorado's "Golden Rapists" are fucking number 24 Hairy Boner State in Tempe, 14-0, end 1. Early but early minus for PAC 12.
#23 Cal went into beautiful Oxford and pulled out a controversial 28-20 win over the SEC'S Ole Miss. plus for PAC 12.
...
UCF was ranked 15th and as a member of the AAC they live for these games against Power Five schools. Just last week they took their swords to Stanford and felled the "Trees." And they had a 27-game regular season win streak. Until today. Impressive win by Pitt. Last week I was surprised to read in the AP write-up that the Pitt defense was playing like a tough, nasty Pat Narduzzi defense at Michigan State. But, thirty-four points today. Thirty at home to Virginia. This was what AP said today:
The Panthers face an uphill climb in the ACC's Coastal Division after opening the season with a loss to No. 21 Virginia, but Pitt could be a handful once conference play starts in earnest next month. The secondary plays with swagger and Pickett is becoming more comfortable by the week in new offensive coordinator Mark Whipple's system.
Okay, done with Pitt.
...
Whatever team you root for, win or lose, you had a better day than did Michigan fans. They get the Schadenfreude Trophy this week.
Florida State hung on to beat Louisville 35-24 in Tallahassee. Much needed win for Willie Taggart.
The University of Miami Gardens are looking a little shaky. They imported Central Michigan for a routine beating today and hung on 17-12. CMU had the ball at the end of the game but threw an INT and UMG ran out the clock. Minus for the ACC.
Appalachian State handed Mack Brown his second loss in a row in Apple Chill, 34-31. What looked like Brown Magic the first two games looks like dumb luck after these last two. Minus for the ACC.
Good God, Old Dominion leads # 21 Virginia 17-7 at HT. That would be a big minus for the ACC.
Virginia just scored. 17-14, 11 3Q.
Pitt's win: plus for ACC.
Notre Dame and Georgia are scoreless early in the 2nd Q. ND plays half their schedule in the ACC. A win would be half a plus.
Notre Dame just scored. 7-0, 10:39 2Q.
Nebraska trails at Illinoise 14-7 near the end of the first. The loss to Colorado was so discouraging for "Husker" fans. A loss to the "Alumni"...would be bad.
Illinois just scored. 21-7, 13:46 2Q.
#6 Ohio State has had the most impressives start to the season. They are 4-0 with wins at home over Florida Atlantic, Cincinnati, at Indiana and today home to Miami (Ohio). No, not murderer's row, but they're all FBS schools. But the scores! Lordy, the scores: 45-21, 42-0, 51-10, and today--76-5. 76-5.
#22 Washington went into Provo today and crushed BYU 45-19. BYU just beat Southern California. Won on Rocky Top the week before. Pretty good team, BYU. "Huskies" mauled 'em. UW's only loss is 20-19 at home to Cal.
Kentucky went splat against the "Clanging Cow Bells," 28-13. They went for it on 4th down against Florida, didn't make it, and its been all down hill from there for UK.
West Virginia won a tricky game at Kansas, 29-24.
