Other Games - Week 9

[Hungry Jack]

Friday Fun Fact: Commodore Oliver Hazzard Perry wintered his fleet in the Erie PA Harbor during the war of 1812.


Week 9 kicked off with Troy (no word if Helen was watching) falling to #24 Coastal Carolina. I guess Troy didn’t have enough ships.

Tonight, Nevada bragging rights are on the line as UNLV goes to Reno to face the Nevada Wolfpack. Hold on to your bar stool, folks.

The Big One this week is 8 MSU hosting 6 UM. MSU is coming off a bye. One would figure this one to be a low-scoring affair, but only the gods know what will transpire.

20 Penn State goes to the Horseshoe in Columbus. I think PSU rebounds to put up a good fight against 5 OSU.

10 Ole Miss at 18 Auburn headlines SEC play.

Virginia goes to 25 BYU. I don't think Bronco Mendenhall will be cavalier about facing his former team. Should be a good game.

UCLA goes to Utah. Utah St hosts Hawaii. The population of Utah may double on Saturday.

North Carolina goes to South Bend.

Iowa goes to Wisconsin. This might end up 2-0. Or 38-35. Only the gods know.

Texas at 16 Baylor should be a good matchup.

Penn State with a wounded Tim Clifford is just not the same team as when he is a legit RPO threat.

Coastal beat Troy

Coastal beat Troy

Oh Jeez. Time to get my eyes checked. I thought it said 38-35.

PSU could rebound a bunch and still fall far short of scaring the Bucks. Look for OSU to score early and often.

Some good BT games this week! Party 🎉 time

So for Coastal Carolina was this the face that lunched a thousand ships, or at least 500 yards offense? Hungry, you have this backwards, as Coastal Carolina held off Troy.

Michigan one bad drop away from going up 14-0

Ohio State is too good on offense

 

[TheC]

FOX coverage is the worst. Sooo many commercials.

 

[TheC]

Iowa is really pretty bad.

 

[phatcat]

Iowa is really pretty bad.

Yeah no way they score 21 points on Wisc in 25 mins. Edit. On offense. If their D scores, that gives them a chance. I don't imagine Wisconsin doing an air-raid the rest of the way though

 

[CatManTrue]

Halfway through his season at UCF, Bowser now has 7 rushing touchdowns.

This matches his total number of rushing touchdowns during his three seasons at NU. Wow.

UCF is up 35-0 on Temple.

Phatcat highlights of Illinutgers

Worst number two team ever!

Bowser will be a pro, if healthy

 

[NU Houston]

FOX coverage is the worst. Sooo many commercials.

It's really terrible, for many reasons. They cut to long commercial breaks at any opportunity. Their approach is set under the assumption that the games will be nearly four hours in length. The NFL still keeps its games in the three hour long range, yet the college programs and conferences (and their network enablers) allows their games to stretch out over an additional hour.

Michigan looks like the better team but I'm counting on Harbag finding a way to lose.

 

[eastbaycat99]

I know we have fixated on the Cats’ disappointing year, but it looks like Indiana, after last year’s prominence, is going to lose to Maryland, drop to 2-6 with its only wins over Idaho and Western Kentucky. Ouch!

 

[TheC]

As biased as this FOX announcing crew was for Michigan last week, they are totally rooting for MSU this week.

 

[phatcat]

Yay mich loses

 

[TheC]

Yay mich loses

Amazing game. I have a kid at both schools so I was just rooting for a fun game, which it was.

 

[CatManTrue]

So our defense is nearly as good as Michigan’s, and just as good as Michigan State’s?

Both us and the Spartans gave up 33 to Michigan. And Michigan held MSU to one less point than we did.

 

[NUCat320]

Worst number two team ever!

Glance over to CBS and you'll see the worst #1 team ever.

 

[DaCat]

It's never a bad day when Harbaugh loses a big showdown game.

 

[wolve1972]

It's never a bad day when Harbaugh loses a big showdown game.

He's now 3-9 vs MSU & OSU

 

[TheC]

He's now 3-9 vs MSU & OSU

He lost the game with his poor decision to put in McCarthy and his unwillingness to keep at the run game. They had a 16 point lead!!

 

[Hungry Jack]

Amazing game. I have a kid at both schools so I was just rooting for a fun game, which it was.

I’m shocked Michigan let it get away. Getting a big lead and forcing MSU to get away from Walker should get it done.

Walker is such a big play back that he can score in a hurry.

 

[Hungry Jack]

Walker is such a big play back that he can score in a hurry.

He only had 5 TDs today

 

[NJCat]

PSU is handling dOSU tonight. Think about it:

PSU lost to Illinois.

Illinois lost to Rutgers.

Rutgers lost to NU.

Ergo, NU > PSU.

ABC is so much better to watch than FOX. Decent announcers. No 20 minute commercial blocks every change of possession.

Herbie talks way too much. I watch ABC on Mute.

Anyone catch the end of the Clemson-FSU game? A lot of gamblers are unhappy right now.

Exciting finish in Houston between the Cougars and SMU Mustangs. SMU tied it at 37 with a long field goal with 30 seconds left. But Houston countered with a 102 yard kickoff return. But a celebration penalty pushed Houston’s kickoff back 15 yards, and the squib was brought back by SMU to the Cougar 35 with 7 seconds left. Tanner Mordecai (former NU recruit) threw the Hail Mary deep into the end zone, where it was caught—by Houston. 44-37 Cougs.

With PSU-OSU on, I can't believe you watched that game.

Not good for the Bearcats.

 

[CatManTrue]

Serves 'em right.

For gambling in general?

Or betting on FSU to cover as 9.5 underdogs, only for them to fumble near the goalline on a desperation play and have Clemson recover for a touchdown and a 10 point win?
