The announcers just said that Michigan State running back LJ Scott has been arrested 7 times in the last two years due to a drivers license issue - how does that happen?

Jarrett Guarantano sucks ass, Dormady wasn't nearly as bad.

Have to wonder if Butch Jones is done after this season. Good riddance to him as he has underachieved with all of those affletic teams he has coached that were filled with upside. He is 33-24 during his tenure at Tennessee. I have heard whispers of Peyton Manning returning to the Volunteers as the head coach. I think that is a long shot and I have learned never to put too much stock or faith in any person when combating the caste system but it would be interesting to see how he built a team.

Trey Quinn 15 more receptions today for 151 yards (late 4th qtr)....a total of 47 the past Three games! :cool: INSANE!

From ESPN Twitter
SMU's Trey Quinn has had at least 15 receptions in 3 straight games; no other FBS player has done that this century.

Cincinnati Leading tackler DB Carter Jacobs all over the field again today.

Oklahoma's Mark Andrews is another really good TE in this year's draft! Has 8 catches for 70+yards, OU leads 28-21 with 9 minutes .


Big stop by KST defense and special teams! Moore with the fumble recovery!

KST ties it up, but Mayfield just throws a 67 yard pass with 6 minutes left!

Trent Tanking and Jay Kirby playing well at LB for the Wildcats. Tanking great name BTW is a former walk on, Kirby probably was too.

Mayfield with 448 total yards! I don't care what the scouts say about him, he's a proven competitor, winner, and a GREAT all around athlete. His arm looks plenty strong to me and 6'1 220 isn't undersized, gimme a break!

Some good games tonight - PSU-UM, USC-ND, WVU-Baylor, Wyoming-Boise St

Really don't know who to cheer for in that 1st Big Ten matchup you listed. Just expecting a well played and hard hitting contest. I think Darnold puts on a show tonight in a classic USC vs Notre Dame game. WVU will handle Baylor aka rape U. Wyoming vs Boise will be the late night MWC game I'll be watching! What you expecting tonight?!

Wow Wildcats score even it at 35. Too much time for Baker though.

I am finally hearing good things about Mayfield from the "anonymous scouts". Comparisons to Brett Favre are being thrown around. Oklahoma's defense is a joke - especially that secondary.

Mayfield needs to drive them down to win the game now - it is a Heisman moment.

He deserves one ! 3 year's in a row as a Heisman finalist.

Notre Dame plays a glorified single wing offense with their black quarterback. McGlinchey and Nelson are beasts so USC needs to focus on shutting down runs to the left side. I hope Darnold plays well tonight and USC wins. WVU should crush - the Grier to Sills connection should find the end zone. I want PSU to win just to keep them up in the rankings - McSorely gets no respect nationally. I hope Allen has a big game against the once great Boise St and improves his draft stock. It is all about the QBs for me.

Definitely some premier QBs in action tonight. Falk and Wazzou playing CU as well . Was pleasantly surprised when I researched Nelson a few weeks ago to see he a blue collared mauler. Perhaps both him and McGlinchey wind up as 1st rounders.

Fumagalli had 7 catches for 83yards and a TD. Backup Zander Neuville with a TE reception as well. Austin Ramesh with a short TD run and Groshek with about 40 yards in blowout duty as Badgers cruise past Maryland 38-13. Most impressive part of the team is Jim Leonhards stout defense! Hornibrook needs to elevate his play if UW is going to make a playoff push.

Didn't see this coming for USC. Darnold has a huge task to come back here.
