great game. Ark almost stole it from the Horns, but Jones put the ball on the ground late. I am surprised that the Hogs outgained them for the game, 451 to 410.

Going into the season, I thought the Hogs would be about a .500 team, but I think they might be better then that.

Hogs O line looked good. Texas was lucky to win that game considering how crappy the played. Good luck to the Hogs the rest of the season.

Btw, Fresno State looks utterly amazing so far. Hopefully they can make it last, I always like it when smaller conference teams run the table.

Btw, does the state of Illinois have any competitive, consistent top-25 team?

Why should they? They have U-Chicago. I'll take the academics .

Btw, Georgia better shape up or else when they run into the meat of their SEC schedule, they'll drop a few.

Historically, SC has always played us tough.

I had a thought while reading how UCLA beat Illinois: has the school of Zuppke and Grange done anything since, oh, 1942? Then I tried thinking of *any* consistent top-25 Illinois team and I couldn't... ergo the question.

Looking it up I see they have had two (2) 10-win seasons since 1971, when they went to an 11 game season.

Yeah, but last week, Georgia seemed dead for the entire first half, before they woke up. I thought they were just rusty after the summer, but they played like crap again in the 1st half. They came back again, but against better teams like Florida, Tennesee, LSU, that'll be much tougher to do.

We had a tune up game for the season, and then a tune up game for the SEC. I agree - I would've liked the Dawgs to have been more convincing in their wins (especially SC), but they did shut South Carolina down after the first quarter. Another 7 points would have been nice, but the D stiffened up when it needed to.

Just gotta control the ball, dammit!

Yeah, the problem isn't the D. The O just looks rusty. Greene didn't look particularly great.

The Leathernecks' Travis Glasford scored five of his six touchdowns in the first quarter. The turnaround for I-AA Western Illinois was 130 points from the previous week when it lost to Nebraska 56-17.

BYU - USC won't be close. but it does have Norm Chow.

The offense he created at BYU will be used against it tonight.

USC 52-14.

Hoping for a shoot out, but it ain't gonna happen.

ACK!

They'll probably lose out to Boise St; they play each other in late October.

Boise St currently has the longest winning streak in the nation (14 games) and has averaged 59 pts/game so far.

I take credit for Boise State's success in recent years because they started doing really well right after I decided to play a dynasty with them in NCAA football and won the Heisman with Brock Forsey

Boise State should automatically be disregarded, they play on that ugly blue field.

TENNESSEE 30 Florida 28

The Big Orange got a big break on a bad call...no doubt about it. They still had to drive the ball 30 yards and hit a 50 yard field goal to win. I guess that it kinda evens things up for that horrible call in 2000 when Jabar Gaffney dropped the ball in the end zone and was still credited with a touchdown. Funny how football tends to even it out over time.

Chris Leak is the real deal...if your playing him this year, you are gonna have your hands full. That kid is awesome. The Vols two freshmen QB's looked good also, but it was Ainge that stole the show. People are comparing him to Peyton already. Schaeffer is definately a major talent as well...we will probably end up losing one of them.

But what a game! Neyland stadium is just the best place on earth to watch a football game! When the crowd is on, as they were last night, you can't even hear yourself scream. If you ever have a chance to go see a game there, then don't miss it!

Auburn will be coming to town on Oct 2...I'm already hunting tickets! GO BIG ORANGE!!

What kind of OU fan roots for Nebraska to lose outside of our showdown? The great thing about our rivalry is that we both respect each other...

I went to the North Carolina State Wolfpack and the #7 ranked THE Ohio State Buckeyes in Raleigh NC

I am a hardcare Wolfpack fan

we had some highlights but kept shooting ourselves in the foot with penalties

I saw our new QB Jay Davis do a decent job, not great..

we have much room for improvements

Thats my $0.02 worth

Congrats OSU

I used to, but after the crap they pulled last year I (and a lot of others) want them to lose every game possible. The lack of integrity, sportsmanship, and loyalty they displayed is pathetic.

I've even had to start rooting for K State a little now as I can't just root for Missouri in the north.
