Some Key Losses (and narrow wins)

[JasonRDunn]

There were some interesting losses yesterday to teams that we want to lose (generally speaking):

1. Coastal Carolina -- not sure that this one would have impacted us, either way, but good to get that out of the way
2. Penn State losing to Illinois -- the start of the B1G beatings have begun
3. OK State loses to ISU -- leaves only Oklahoma as the top tier and we need OK State to beat them, which I think is entirely possible
4. NC State loses to Miami -- they were riding high in the ACC -- now it is a muddled mess with Pitt beating Clemson
5. Purdue losing to Wisky -- so much for the momentum from last week

Narrow wins

1. UVA over GT -- GT looks can be a spoiler for a number of teams
2. Wake Forest over Army -- just looked like a crazy game -- score 56 and run for nearly 600 yards and lose
3. Oregon by 3 over UCLA -- would have been nice for the Bruins to knock them off
4. Oklahoma by 11 over Kansas -- that game was trending poorly for the sooners for a while
5. Cincinnati by 7 over Navy -- Navy is not a good team -- Cincy looked vulnerable but some teams do, when playing the academies

Of Note

1. UL over a game BC club -- UL looks pretty decent and is not going to be a pushover
2. MSU over Vandy -- Vandy gets two interceptions and just cannot score
3. LSU losing to Ole Miss -- LSU trended strong early and just faded. Would have been awesome for them to win.

Did I miss any other important ones? We just need the undefeated and once defeated to keep getting upset -- while we win out. It will not be easy (and it never is) at MSU, Tenn or at UL. Got to come to play every time.

GBB!
