OT: D1

[Ship69]

The problem is that Florida State never should have been ranked 10th to open the year. The voters who do the polls are extremely lazy. They have no idea what’s going with any of these teams.

I didn’t think they’d be this bad, but they never should have been ranked this high. I am surprised they are looking like this tonight, but I was pretty confident in my pick of GT on the ML last week.

FSU lost Jordan Travis, their top two WRs, multiple OL, and MOST of their starters on that defense. People saw a big name QB transferred there (who sucks, let’s be very clear about that) and that Roydell Williams jumped to FSU from Bama. So the voters assume they’ll be good. Reality is that team lost everything from last year. Kirk Herbstreit picked them to go to the Playoff, but he also said that people need to check some expectations given what they lost. That’s coming to fruition.

A lot of it is usually based on name recognition. After winning the natty last year, Michigan is getting a lot of love. But that certainly doesn't look like a top-end offense they'll be putting out this season. They'll usually be a tough out with their defense, but I could see them easily losing 3-4 games this season.

Penn State just went up by 10 after Bowling Green was driving for the go ahead score with under 5 minutes to play. Interception killed the upset.

Curt Cignetti's Indiana Hoosiers beat Western Illinois 77-3, setting all-time record for points scored by IU. They had 701 yards of total offense.

They open the Big 10 schedule next week against UCLA (my mind still doesn't compute UCLA being in the Big 10).

So St Francis just beat Kent State, in what has to be one of the ugliest games I’ve seen in D1.

How nice for Curt and Fake Indiana University.

Congratulations to Chris Villarrial. I don't know how bad Kent State is but beating a MAC team is a big deal.

I bet Northern Illinois has never received a $1.4 million donation for football
