FSU staff screaming “We’re better than this” may have worked after week one, but not anymore.

Memphis 20, FSU 3 in the 3rd

If they're still hell bent on leaving the ACC, you think the Sun Belt will take them?

Would fit perfectly in the Land of Misfit Toys that is the PAC 12...

Saw Bama play at Mizzou maybe 5 yrs ago when they were at their peak and Mizzou was Mizzou. The Bama fans could not have been nicer or more gracious and all “y’all will figure it out,” as they were beating Mizzou’s brains out. Was super impressed in the moment and it didn’t hit me until later that that whole southern gentility thing was really the most superior, condescending a-holery in the entire world. 

Bless your heart.

The exact same deal when we played at Kansas a couple years ago. It was nice til I realized they just didn’t think we were worth a f***. (And we weren’t, to be clear, but only WE get to think that)

Purdon’t looking stellar

I’m no domer, but this is some good viewing today.

I’m at my first “BigTimeSECFootballGame”

1) Very fun atmosphere 

2) UF very sux.

Dear Purdue nerds,

you suck. Put that in your slide rule and calculate that

Glad to see the Boilerweenies getting thrashed by Notre Dame... 42-0 at the half.

Very VERY wet! and nine UF penalties in the first half.

My wife says this may be less pleasant than childbirth.

As an IU football fan? I feel right at home.

You think what ND is doing to Purdue is bad?

Just imagine what Northern Illinois would do to them.

Leave it to the Boilermakers to make ND look like a good team.

Much like the days of yore, Good Troy in the 1st half, Bad Troy in the 2nd half with Iowa's best offensive play, a pick 6.

The announcers in the Purdue game talking with Gene Steratore about how to shorten the game is the greatest thing in the history college football. 

[Hardwood83]

Just saw on the B1G network that 66pts today was the most Purdoo has ever given up! Ha ha, suck it Toilet-makers.

That does surprise me a little though, they don't have a stellar history either.

Targeting call in the Wyoming-BYU game. BYU receiver coming across the middle extends for a ball a bit in front of him. His feet tangle with the DB covering and he starts to fall forward. A DB peeling back to the play is running by him, literally trying not to contact the guy, but with his balance lost the receiver falls into him and his head contacts the DB’s shoulder. The contact is 100% initiated by the receiver. And the DB gets pitched for targeting. He was literally trying to avoid the kid.
They have GOT to revisit that rule.
