Good start for Bailey Gaither too, he had a 6-137-2 stat line and also 50 kick return yards

A real mystery here. Gaither was a superb baseball player who started off last season with a bang and then virtually disappeared. Couldn't tell if he was injured or just demoted.

Exceptional speed. And he is only a junior!!

Announcers referred to UCF Pat Jasinski a "Savage" at Linebacker....QB McKenzie Milton is a modern day Doug Flutie/or Baker Mayfield! Tremendous On the run sling shot should have been TD! 4 TD's in late 3rd qtr + 50 rushing yards.

WR Alex Bachman nice TD catch...Cade Carney 7 carries for 30 yards in 2nd qtr

Good to see Thorson excel so soon!

A&M TE Jace Sternberger is a future star in the making. Reminds me of Jeremy Shockey

U.Conn's WR Kyle Buss looks like a breakout player for 18'

Quick wrap up.

As noted QB Eric Dungey ran wild. His team is dyed in the wool caste which really makes Syracuse a tough team to root for but anytime a white QB or RB tears through a defense you take notice.

I noticed LB for Western Michigan Alex Grace made a lot of tackles last night. Isn't he a former RB with 4.4 speed? Only a junior.

That run by quick Utah WR Britain Covey was insane.


Finish up on two high notes.

Bucky Wisconsin looked fantastic last night and the QB looked sharp. Gorshek got a lot of snaps and look for him to play a huge role this year. I missed his TD catch but he has tremendous versatility with his pass catching ability.

White WR/PR sighting in Jack Dunn who had a nifty 20 yard catch last night.


And they look to have a star safety in youngster Scott Nelson. Flying around the field with abandon he was all over the field last night. Already perhaps a potential NFL DB!!

And lastly (see above) who doesn't like this great WR stat line from Nevada. Kaleb Fossum 6-139 and McClane Mannix with a sensational 4-132-3. BIG PLAYS. That is what I like to see most in college football. White WRs making big chunks of yardage plays and long touchdowns!!

22 is correct Mannix is one of the fastest players in college football.

So the past week in college football has been pretty solid overall.

Hope it carries over today when the season kicks in for good. Lot of big matchups today.

Trent Irwin had an amazing play last night, Costello was trying to get him the ball but it was tipped and picked off and Irwin hit the defender like a DB and forced a fumble and recovered it back for Stanford, I’ve only seen that happen in video games!

I’m running back watching today.....I’ve been looking forward to Epstein tearing it up.....Lovie started Bonner and brought in Epstein on a couple drives.....Mike Dudek has done well, but Epstein is getting the Lovie treatment......It’s a tough game to watch (quota vs quota), lots of bad throws, sCam type lumbering runs......Give ME the ball......

Looking forward to see Borghi play in a couple hours.
Laird isn’t on tv where I live, but he should have a big game....
Lovie’s qb looks terrible.....

Auburn TE Sal Canella with an athletic TE reception!

I loathe Auburn and their old money DWF fanbase. Let's hope Washington can respond.

Another season, another stagnant Iowa offense.

Looks like they turned it on 2nd half.

Cal is looking good. They lead 17-0 at the half. Hasn't been a pretty game to watch though. The main
thing is they are in control and Patrick Laird has 18 rushes for 72 yards so far. A lot of defense and big
hits on both sides of the ball in this game. I would like to see Laird get his 100-125 yards and then if they
are still winning big, take him out as there is no reason to risk injury in a lopsided game.

David Sills with like a 30 yard TD catch.........he’s pushing 100 yards. He was in single coverage on the outside and they friggin’ blitzed the cornerback leaving a safety to slid over and cover him. Grier picked it up immediately and Sills burned the safety.....beautiful!

Washington State is winning in a blowout but only let Borghi run the ball once. The kid had a 14 yd touchdown run so they hide him on the bench other than a few passes. Why not let him run the ball in a blowout. Why continue to play the starter? Things that really make you scratch your head. I think they have to limit the amount of white running backs as it might prove that the racist stereotypes are not true. Look at how Nall got cut for no reason whatsoever!!! So hard to watch this sh**!

Sills now with 125 yards and the leading receiver for WV..........Grier over 400 yards passing with 4 TDs and the announcers can’t stop talking about his Heisman chances...........

Sills with another TD! Grier with 5 TDs


Now this is some positive news. Two absolute studs and West Virginia is headed for a stellar year in my opinion. This
is must see tv! Congrats to both Grier and Sills on both of them having monster games!

Lots of black quarterbacks gifted starting jobs this year - both Marshall and Cincinnati go with black quarterbacks . Might be the worst year on record.

Its too bad that Washington lost. Would have been good to see them beat Auburn.

Nice, Nicholls defeats KU in OT 26-23. KU head coach should be in the hot seat now, if he wasn't before.

A bit of a letdown after the last week plus worth of action.

I have been on his case for years now and finally Penn State HC Franklin has turned his team into a non white SEC venture. Apart from exciting QB McSorley this team has no white players per say. I was hoping like hell App State would upset them but it was not to be. This ******* coach was on the hot seat a few years ago. I hope that scene returns at Penn State. One of my least favorite teams this year and what a difference a year makes. I smelled out that rat Franklin years ago and my predictions have sadly come true.

By the way Comcast settled with the Big Ten network so I get to watch a lot of Big Ten action again.

Speaking of the Big Ten Ohio State is gaining favor. As mentioned above WR CJ Saunders is their punt returner ( also some snaps) and they start an athletic rangy young LB named Pete Werner who stripped the ball in the end zone that Bosa recovered. And Borland played some. And back up dual threat QB Martell flashed while he was in. But back to Bosa. He was a monster yesterday. He looked like the number one pick no questions asked. They also have a stud true freshman TE they are slowly working in named Jeremy Ruckert. Also impressed with the "fill in" coach Ryan Day. He played Werner practically the whole game and in general there was more of a white presence out there. They took apart Oregon State's all black D.

The highlight of the day was watching the Grier/Sills connection hammer dreaded Tennessee. Beautiful to witness. Just great clean strikes between the two of them.

As I await 22's wrap up just a few other notes. Weird they had a full stadium at Nebraska and the game gets canceled. I never recall games being canceled except for hurricanes. Same with Iowa State.

ND was lucky to beat Michigan. Michigan beat themselves in the first half and outplayed the Irish in the second half but two things stood out. Michigan actually has a young white WR they are working in this year named Oliver Martin. And DE Chase Winovich was ridiculously good.

Not much else stood out yesterday although Bowling Green's WR Scottie Miller had a 13-166-2 stat line in a loss to Oregon. Cody Thompson is back with Toledo with a 3-68-1 stat line. And WR Isabella had a decent game against BC in a blow out loss.

RB Laird was a workhorse for Cal in their victory. He is the captain so the team revolves around him.

And Kansas, see above, that state with a lot of black people, got beat by a high school team.

Cody Thompson actually blocked a punt and returned it for a touchdown yesterday too. (He actually caught the ball directly off the foot of the punter which I’ve never seen before, I’m sure the video isn’t too hard to find)

Thanks for the recaps - I didn't get to watch much football yesterday.

Michigan losing to ND is the biggest disappointment for me.

It was nice to see Navy get blown out, Texas lose and Arizona lose to BYU to kill the Tate for Heisman hype early.


Cincinatti, UCLA, Marshall, Baylor, Tennessee all screw over white QBs and replace them with quotas.
