College football Week 1 gets started tonight, we have a doubleheader on ESPN, UCLA/Cincinnati and Utah/BYU, plus Georgia Tech/Clemson on the ACC Network.

UCLA/Cincy has been pretty good, but UCLA is going to suck again this year IMO, while Cincy has a great shot at getting to 10 wins again, in fact I think they could be the team to make a New Years Six bowl out of the Group of 5. Cincy at Ohio St next week should be good.
Clemson destroying Georgia Tech, unfortunately I’m not getting to see it because it’s on the ACC Network, which most people don’t even get. Fucking pathetic that a game featuring the #1 team in CFB isn’t nationally televised.

Wisconsin demolishing USF - The Badgers have the best RB in CFB in Jonathan Taylor, he’s phenomenal, he should’ve finished higher in the Heisman voting last year after running for over 2000 yards, he’s already got 4 TD’s tonight. If Wisconsin can get a solid passing attack going, they will be very hard to beat, the Big 10 West is up for grabs this year but I think the Badgers are the favorites.
Charlie Strong is on the hot seat at USF IMO, they totally collapsed last year, losing their last 6 and they are getting crushed tonight, it’s interesting how Strong went from being considered a great coach who got one of the premiere jobs in CFB at Texas to where he is now.

Among the 12pm (est) games today -
Lane Kiffin and Florida Atlantic vs. Ohio State
Hmmm. Who do I root for?
I can't stand either but part of me wouldn't mind seeing the expression on Kiffin's face walking off the sidelines after getting shelled 64-0.

Missed the MSU opener vs Tulsa. Sounded not great. Almost covered. Looks like Purdue had a stinker.

Ohio St up 21-0 on FAU already, I think they will be the Big 10’s best once again, I know people are high on Michigan but they lost a lot of talent, I think their QB is overrated and Michigan simply cannot win big games IMO.

21-0 Buckeyes with 9:12 to go in the 1st - what happened after a good 1st year at FAU and going to a Bowl Game Lane - and then finishing under .500 last year  |

I don't expect FAU to compete with the Giants of College Football - but after finishing 11-3 in his first year - going 5-7 was fairly disappointing last year for Kiffin

Ole Miss/Memphis is an interesting game, Memphis up 7-0, they are another Group of 5 team to watch out for, they had a great offense last year and should be very good again this year, Norvell is an excellent head coach.

Iowa State only up 3-0 late in the second quarter over Northern Iowa. I was looking at Matt Campbell as being a candidate for bigger jobs either in college or the NFL.
Boise State no-showing against Florida State.

Tennessee losing to Georgia State 7-0 Let's see if Pruitt can turn the program around - disappointing 5-7 last year |

Boise State no-showing against Florida State. UNI-ISU going into their 3rd OT. If you are Iowa or Iowa State you never want to play UNI for your 1st game. They always come in well prepared and fired up to take on the state's "premier" schools.

And Iowa St escapes with a win over Northern Iowa!!
Duke/Bama still at 0, and Bama still doesn’t have a good kicker apparently.
