Kansas- remember when they and coach Lance Leipold were the talk of the country? Well, they are 1-4 this year.

Clemson vs FSU would have been the biggest game on Saturday, if FSU wasn't absolutely terrible this year. Will they finally show up Saturday?

North Carolina lost back to back games against James Madison and Duke. Who saw that coming?

The ACC sucks. Not much debate there

Colorado- Will Dieon live up to his hype this year? They are 4-1.

ND lost at home to N Illinois. They only play one other ranked team all year so they'll prob make the Playoffs. They do have a win against fringe top 25 Texas A&M and a win against the ranked paper tiger louisville cards. Sad...

Thoughts???
 
If ND goes 11 and 1 of course 100% they are making the playoffs.

Colorado is a fraud.

Clemson puts another nail n FSUs coffin Saturday.

Missouri at A and M intrigues me this weekend.
 
I guess this is why college football produces billions.

This season may out shine the wackiest of them all: 2007.

IU undefeated- Hoosiers might have made one of the best hires. Did what I think more schools should do, including us next time we go fishing. They hire a guy with a 100 plus wins or so at the lower levels albeit, but someone who’d built winning programs nonetheless.

Kind of like Brian Kelly and Deboer…dudes had winning careers before any P5 came calling or fan base had heard of them.

IU dude hired some young up and coming modern thinkers on staff. That offense is nice. Older experienced QB who come up in the program is a lost art but it pops when you have one.

Arch Manning - whoa…kid looks like a heisman and #1 overall. Kudos to him family and horns for how they’ve handled him and development. Curtailing off above statement on a qb coming up the right way. They’ve done it right. Manning will be official starter his 3rd year in the program. He’ll have just enough reps to go with the obvious talent. Add on that multiple years developing with the coach in that system and growing with the core crew of guys. Look out for Sark and Texas now and foreseeable future.

Indiana has done a nice job but they haven't played anybody and will only play 2 ranked teams all season, but they are undefeated.

Yeah they got a nice schedule. Not out of the realm of possibility that they win 10-11 games.

“Not playing anyone” and lack of a tough road are relative ideas depending on the perspective and context of individual programs.

Yeah if an upper tier SEC or B10 team had their road it’d be a cake walk.

IU is IU though. A middle to lower tier B10 program so to them I think that’s a competitive schedule. Then you throw in new coach and they are out kicking their coverage.

Did you see where, due to the hurricane, Wofford-Western Carolina are playing without a crowd? Plus Wofford is bringing their own food and was told to bring enough gas to get home after the game. Cullowee and county is just about shut down.

If Indiana makes the playoff I'm gonna vomit (in regards to them winning 10 or 11 games). They will get annihilated if they do though.
