New Miss beats Kentucky, 37-34. Certainly no fan of New Miss, especially with Shea Patterson out and a mystery meat in at QB, but nice to see a very dark Kentucky team get their 3rd loss of the season.

Affletic WR lets the ball go right through his hands and bounce off his facemask resulting in an INT for Rudolph.

I saw that too. Another example of poor black hand-eye coordination.

Laird now with 18 car for 140 yards and a TD, early in the 3rd Qtr.


Patrick Laird ended up with 33 carries for 214 yards and a td! He is now up to almost 600 yards on the season
with 5 games left to play. He is on track for an 1000 yard season! What an incredible display of athletecism!


Sorry I just noticed someone beat me to it. I apologize guys.

Really disappointed with the team Fleck is fielding right now for Minnesota. I know he recruited a bad Minnesota team that recruited affletes so it will be interesting to see how the team changes with his recruiting classes.

Just watched the Alabama vs LSU game, and like expected there wasn't much to root for. Bama's O-Line dominated things as usual, OG Pierschbacher and C Bozeman are sure-fire 2018 draft picks! LSU QB Danny Etling had a down game, completing only 12/26 passes for 137 yards and an Int.

It's never good to see any player suffer a serious injury, but Bama LB Dion Hamilton is out for the season after re-injuring his ACL.
This means my man Keith Holcombe, will take over as the starting LB for the remainder of the season! Holcombe has played good in a couple spot starts this season, tallying 30 TOT Tackles, 2 TFL's, and 1 Sack!

Darnold leads the Trojans down the field to retake the lead and the Arizona black quarterback throws an easy INT to pretty much seal the game.

Overall it was not a bad week. Three of the Heisman candidates being pushed by BSPN fell flat - Barrett, Barkley and Tate. Mayfield had a record setting day in "Bedlam". Darnold also made some Heisman plays last night so he will probably jump back into the conversation at the very least.

Ohio St. should now be out of the National Championship picture. Alabama has Miss St., Mercer (yes their second to last game of the year is against Mercer and their schedule is extremely soft) and Auburn coming up - we can only hope for an upset. Notre Dame and Miami will play next week - which will push one of those teams out of the playoff picture. Georgia plays Auburn which could also shake things up. Somehow Clemson is still a top 4 team even though Syracuse has proven to be mediocre - they have to play Free Shoes, Citadel (another head scratcher for a late season game) and South Carolina.

The media narrative today is that the Big Ten is in trouble and may not have a representative in the College Football playoff because the teams keep beating each other. Bear in mind this was the same arguement I heard over and over from SEC Fan Boys/DWFs who inist the SEC is the best conference. In all honesty the Big 10 is the best conference in college football. Wisconsin remains unbeaten - I would put PSU, Iowa, Michigan or Michigan St. up against any of the top 4 teams head to head. Lewerke and Stanley are becoming the two young QB faces of the Big 10.

On the subject of Michigan - I was wrong about John O'Korn so wherever Phall is - I was wrong! I can say that Peters looks totally different than both Speight and O'Korn thus far albeit is a small sample size.

Before I point out a few positives from the week I was actually disappointed for the most part this week. Key WR's from the BIG schools like Will Hastings, David Sills (despite another TD!) and Trey Quinn had awful stat games there is no way around it. And just in general despite huge wins from Northwestern and Iowa their white WR's did not figure prominently except NW senior Macan Wilson. And San Jose State's WR Bailey Gaither has been MIA for several weeks after a blistering start due to some sort of injury. Back up RB's Groshek, who at least played and VT's Coleman Fox, didn't make a mark and either did Sean McGrew in mop up duty. Of course it isn't fair for back ups and their limited playing time to come to conclusions. WR Hunter Renfrow continues to have a very sub par stat season--due to lack of targets---but I believe he saved the game for Clemson once again with a key late game 3rd down conversion where he made a nifty spinning move to gobble up some yards.
Big 12--This should come as no surprise but this pansy ass defensive play in this conference is not my idea of football and as noted above that Oklahoma-Oklahoma State game was a farce. If I was the head coach of a division 1 school I would have at least 4 white defensive players on my starting D. These all black defenses that just run around aimlessly with no pride as they get burned by one gigantic flash play after another by other black players -(they seem to try harder when covering white WR's) is beyond sickening as black WR's pad their stats to the max and get on Sports center front and center. That said Baker Mayfield sure is exciting --and TE Mark Andrews went over 100 yards with only three catches which I like to see. As mentioned above one of the best games of the day was Texas Tech and Kansas State. WR Dylan Cantrell had a nice 8-99 stat line but should have been targeted more. His glamour boy WR teammate Coutee got the caste treatment as he obviously pushed off a defender to score a long TD. No call--horrible. But it was nice to see sophomore WR #83 Dalton Schoen have a nice game see above and K State pulled it out which was preferable.
TCU smothered nearly all black oh what the hell all black Texas ( one reserve OLB Hager). TCU is just as black although they do have two white front seven players, LB Ty Summers and DE Matt Boesen who make a difference. Too bad WR Ty Slanina, who was an athletic recruit back when is reduced to one or two dink passes a game. When was the last time TCU had a significant white WR? 19th century?
Big 10-Everything got scrambled and hero Barkley had another mediocre game so Mayfield is now the front runner for the Heisman. Nebraska coach is gone--just a matter of when but as I mentioned last week Northwestern is a team to root for with all of their white WR's and an emerging stud at LB, Paddy Fisher. As for Wisconsin the power move is to SHOVE both Georgia( caste central) and Alabama ( nice to see LB Holcombe out there again but nothing else) into the playoffs along with among the following Clemson, Notre Dame, Miami, Oklahoma, TCU or Washington. If Wisconsin goes undefeated and wins the conference championship they should be a lock but the rumor is the big boys don't want them in. Too many white guys on D perhaps---I guess the Oklahoma teams and their brainless /pansy/matador all black defenses passes for great these days.
Even Washington has a few white defensive players. And WR Andy Isabella scorched all black D Miss State see above highlight which was great to see. Andy finally had another big game. It had been a while. So far no buzz on NFL regarding RB Laird but he has one more season to buff up his resume. He has been consistent and very solid all year long. These two players kept the week from falling into a sink hole. There were some good defensive performances Saturday so I shouldn't be too down beat but when the key WR's have off games I get grumpy. That said Iowa State has a freshman KR Landen Akers #82 who hopefully starts getting reps at WR next season. He has big time speed.
Ivy League update. Tall two sport athlete sophomore ( he plays CF) WR Jeff Horsted from Princeton put up another good day with a 9-114-2 stat line against Penn. Penn won as Justin Watson dominated with a 8-124-2TD stat line the last TD being the clincher.
And a lot of you got to see Dudek for the first time and he was ripping off big TD runs. Actually bittersweet. His jump cuts are already pro level and he is too talented for this league. He should be the starting RB for a power 5 school and if he was at Penn State--where everyone and their mother knows he should be--he could have been Barkley's key back up this season as he grooms to be a starter next season. They could have used him the last two games as Barkley danced around to no avail in the backfield.

Former Cal Walk-on Patrick Laird has to easily been the best Caste-Busting story of 17' CFB Season! He just needed the opportunity; after Limited carries in mostly garbage time like last year!

I think TCU WR Ty Slanina had been injured; yesterday was 1st game back...he should figure more prominently the remainder of the season

Didn't get to see a lot of the SMU/UCF game ...but every pass thrown to Quinn were little quick screens to the sidelines for minimal gains...weird stat line looks like a RB's 11 rec - 47 yds. NOTHING VERTICAL... Sills scored FBS Leading 16th TD despite the quiet game.
