Xander Horvath with 11 carries for 41 yards and 1 td at the half.

Gonna try to find the Clemson Game.

I turned on the game just in time to see Clemson’s prize non-white qb break the scoring drought by throwing a pick six on a quick hitch route. Perhaps the most pressing dilemma here is which clever nickname I will be using for this Cheddar Man going forward. I like DJ Oogabooga, but his name actually sounds a lot like “ukulele,” which I suppose would pay homage to his Poly (I think?) roots. Plus it’s a bit less racially insensitive, so it plugs into water cooler chit chat.

JT Daniels is not a controversial preseason selection for first team All SEC. Yet, this morning I read a game preview for this matchup giving the edge to Clemson based solely on their magnificent, dynamic, electric, eclectic QB Ukulele. Frankly it soured me on the rest of the Tiger whities (but not for too long of course).

Anyway, very disappointed that Graham Mertz pooped the bed today. Wisconsin looks like they’d have been better served by inviting Jack Coan back. Their running back looked poor, and you can bet the problem isn’t the offensive line. Badger defense looked strong though.

Anybody saw Georgia played a white DB? #47 Dan Jackson involved in 2 drives, in spring game he had one spectacular INT, school news site said he might not get many meaningful snaps this season, in fact he has those meaningful snaps already in the season opener.

Struggles from Clemson were predictable, Trevor had no much help from their O line, and receivers, OC ELLIOTT is not legit. Will Taylor might have chances to throw this season...

Best case scenario for Clemson-UGA. Clemson's defense with quite a few palefaces does it's part while the hyped up poly QB falls flat in trying to replace Trevor Lawrence.

Another laughable outcome has been Florida's black quarterback Emory Jones who was hyped up throughout the day and predictably fell flat in trying to replace Kyle Trask.

Ga Tech loses in one of the caste upsets of the day vs N. Illinois.

LSU has a freshman white WR? Jack Bech? recruiting services said he was gonna switch to TE but roster has him at WR. Anyone catch him on the field? Has one reception for 17 yards so far.

Air Force RB Brad Roberts 25 carries for 111 yards.

No carries for Georgia State's Tucker Gregg, ridiculous...

Adding to the Montana upset of UW, FCS UC Davis upset Tulsa (who some had ranked) yesterday, counted 13 white starters for Davis...

Caleb Chapman - Texas A&M WR 4 receptions for 91 yards
Cooper Lutz - Syracuse RB 5 carries 25 yards 1 TD
Zander Horvath - Purdue RB 21 carries 81 yards 1 TD
Austin Williams - Mississippi State - 5 receptions for 57 yards

not crazy stat lines, but never imagined white players at forbidden positions at some of these schools...

It's nice to see Horvath getting 20+ carries. I can't believe MSU came back to beat La Tech - they were down a few scores late. Caleb Chapman looks to have bounced back from the knee injury.

Washington St is doing their best to ignore Max Borghi so far. Hope that changes in the 2nd half. They are not playing good.

Gregg needs to transfer now!

In the late game Carson Strong just led the Wolfpack to an early 2nd half lead vs Cal with a beautiful deep throw down the sideline followed by a TD throw. He needs to be the "come out of no where QB" for the 2022 NFL draft.
