What do you think about your boy Urban strutting around Ohio's campus?

I think he'll be Ohio State's coach next year, that's what I think. You can go home again. That's where he got his start in coaching as a graduate assistant.

David Wilson gonna be an ok tailback

Got that right Chico.

Halftime of VT-Appalachian State, and so far VT is busy convincing App State why they need to stay in D1. Logan Thomas has had his moments so far, but David Wilson is pretty busy showing why we shouldn't be too concerned about the loss of Ryan Williams and Darren Evans (100 rushing yards, 3 tds).

VT if I'm not mistaken currently does not have a ranked team on their schedule this season. I'd be pretty surprised if they're not playing in the ACC Championship game with a schedule like that.

Thats the ACC these days. But if you look at their 5-6 year schedule their not afraid to go outside and play a Boise, USC, LSU, Alabama etc. In fact I think for 3-4 year straight they played the eventual so called national champion for that year...USC, Alabama, LSU(?)...they need to win one of those. But next year they start a series with OSU or Wisconsin I believe.

There is no excuse for FSU NOT winning the ACC year. none.

Yeah I just checked and that's definitely true. I don't know, I guess we've had enough of scheduling top 5 teams that kick our ass so we have just decided to play it easy this year. I doubt this is an every year kinda thing though, normally we usually mix in a couple top tier teams on our non-ACC schedule every year.

And don't look now but Auburn has come back and is beating Utah State. I guess I have a soft spot for US because that's Chris Cooley's alma mater, it'd be nice to see them pull the upset, even though Auburn is nowhere near the team it was last season.

I think the ACC championship this year will be FSU-VT again. Nothing's guaranteed anyways. FSU has gotten a lot better.

Wasn't pretty, but they won.

Auburn lost A TON of the guys who them a title. They're going to struggle this year. As a matter of fact, they'll lose to a rising Miss St team next weekend. SEC West is a tough as it's ever been this season. Auburn, LSU, Miss St, Arkansas, Alabama.... sheesh.

[GMScud]

I bet Saden1 is steaming over the fact that his Ducks lost another game to an SEC team. One with 3 really important LSU players suspended no less. Eeesh.

[12thMan]

Was happy to see Notre Dame lose...and what was that bullshit game delay twice to break USF's momentum. Never seen anything like that in my life. Brian Kelly has to be the biggest prick in college football.

Utah St realized who they were...a flat out horrible team. No excuses for Auburn with that performance. Utah St really not a good team.
