This Mich St- Florida Atlantic game is…..awful. A minute into the 2nd qtr and there’ve been combined 3 to’s and a safety. 2-0 MSU.

The game is about to get away from Florida Atlantic as MSU is 3 yards away from going up three scores. Then last year-IU defensive back Philip Dunham jumps a route in the end zone for a Florida Atlantic interception and returns it 60 yards. FAU goes the other 40 yds for a td.

it was about to be 23-3 MSU; instead it’s 16-10 going into the 4th.

Michigan State is horrific. They’ll beat Prairie View A&M and I’m honestly not sure who else. Smith will get them right eventually, but Tucker ran that program into the ground.

So if you aim and whack someone in the head but graze their shoulder before you do, its not targeting. Remember that in a month when one of our guys get tossed for that move.

MSU is gonna hold on. Just barely.

UW holding on at the half over Western Michigan. 10 - 7.

It's 2 months away so lots can change and on the road but that definitely seems like a winnable game for IU.

A few years ago posters were anointing Clemson as the next Alabama. Nope, that would be Georgia.

Dabo doesn't use the transfer portal nor does he embrace NIL.

Career suicide these days. Clemson has good money but not too dog money.  Paying under the table for freshman was much more budget friendly.

If Billy Napier were a basketball coach he’d be Archie Miller.

I have a couple friends that are big Gator fans. Their view on Napier is very similar to Josh’s view on Archie

Wow, that is a really good comp. Bravo

I normally don’t like laying the big points on these week 1 games, you just can’t be sure what you’re gonna get.

But I was pretty confident in Lane Kiffin to go pedal to the metal against Furman. Ole Miss 52-0 at the half.
