Along with CSU's loss (at home), Virginia beat Louisville handily, giving them their second loss.

Va Tech losing is great. Old Dominion had a black quarterback in the first three games and LaRussa came in and torched the Hokies. I love it!

Am I alone in losing practically all interest in a team once I find out their QB isn't White? Of course I'm happy if I hear whatever White players are on the team do well, but I always think a Black QB is basically an atrociously inferior, forced substitute for the random White dude who would be miles better. Plus Black Quarterbacks are rarely held accountable for their team's failures but given practically all credit for their team's success.

For White QBs who lead a majority Black team it's the opposite dynamic, but still, at least for the QB to be White is the natural order of things.

I am right their with you.

Stanford was down 24-7 with Oregon on their 1 yard line (after a TD call was reversed). LB Alfiera picks up a fumble and takes it back 80 yards to make it 24-14. Then Stanford scores on the next drive to make it 24-21.........end of the 3rd

Stanford LB Joey Alfieri showing the wheels at 6'-3" 240lbs on the 80 yard TD Fumble Recovery!

a sure win game for Ducks now 24-21, Alfieri giving Cardinal's rebirth, all thanks to the stupid guy from Oregon who stepped on the pylon instead of rushing into the endzone.

Obviously I’m very happy about the TTU win, Bowman looked great again and one of the his 2 interceptions wasn’t his fault. WR Zach Austin made a lot of first downs and was 7-69, also Connor Killian who was a long snapper last year is now the starting fullback for TTU and he looked like a really good blocker against Ok State. Tech’s defense played really well which came at the expense of Taylor Cornelius and Dillon Stoner, but no complains from me. Nothing too special today, some guys had big games I’ll try to post some updates later.

Oregon up 31-28 with less than a minute left could have run out the clock by taking a knee........they give it to their upside RB who fumbles to White Stanford safety Shawn Barton. Costello drives them down the field for a game tying FG.......OT

Stanford ties it up. Herbert has looked the part of a top draft pick. Stanford has been entertaining to watch as well - nice to see Costello solidify the qb position.

Wisconsin-Iowa - another entertaining football game rather than a defense optional track meet.

Just a note Deceptive has a sack list up on Defensive Lineman thread.

Like last week I didn't get that uplifting rush. The reason is simple: Big plays by WRs. They have been missing the last two weeks. Meaning big chunks of yardage.

Granted important Wide Outs like Cody Thompson and David Sills found the end zone multiple times I want to see the big yards for catches too. To be fair neither was targeted deep much at all and McClane Mannix only had an average day although his teammate Fossum had a good day. And OK days was the theme of many of the WRs we are following from Andy Isabella to Scotty Miller to Matthew Sexton. Need better than just OK.

Entertaining posts above. About the Friday night games. That Washington State Coach looks like an idiot, acts like an idiot and is an idiot. How many games has this clown lost due to dumbass decisions? He utilizes RB Max Borghi like a lightly salted seasoning a dash here and dash there. Give him something to do for crying out loud. You can see the explosion. USC has two certain pros on D in an otherwise caste infested roster. Wild man edge player Porter Gustin and tackling machine Cameron Smith. Smith actually tackles people unlike so many of these black "athletes" who look good in workouts.

I could have sworn something happened to Mike Epstein right before the half. The dumbass camera man panned away from him just as he was bending down in pain after a tackle and he was barely used (one carry) in the second half.

I am still in a bad mood but was delighted to see Oregon and Oklahoma State go down. Oregon has a top flight QB but their pattern has been discernable. They have the beefy guys do the dirty work, get a pin point passer and fill all of their skill position players with slight and usually small black speedsters. Which begs the question? Why don't teams have slight somewhat smallish white skill players? You never see them. Teams don't recruit slight fast white skill players They only recruit the black players that fit that description.

And Oklahoma State is the poster boy for all black fruit cup defenses with horrid tackling and all around crap play. And as predicted Dillon Stoner is getting buried. This is a loathsome team. Too bad their counterpart Oklahoma just slipped by mediocre Army. But that all black D of Oklahoma was pushed around by a marginal team. Speaking of marginal Kansas returned to their natural spot and lost handily. And Virginia Tech what a shame. Ha.

Real football was being played by Iowa and Wisconsin last night. A great game where white defenders were really making plays. Iowa made a rash of foolish errors and Wisconsin took advantage but it is refreshing to watch football the way it was meant to be played as opposed to the basketball on grass favored by so many all black defenses.

I saw Heretic's piece on Nebraska as Michigan beat them like a drum. I am pleasantly surprised at Frost's early recruiting but one does wonder. He came from one of those fruit cup defense conferences and he is dealing with another whole ball of wax here. But of course too early for the red panic button but concerns are concerns.

As for Michigan like Ohio State they have a few pieces for the future. Frustrating that WR Oliver Martin only caught one pass but he was out there quite a bit. Like so many other white WRs this season some big plays would do him a world of good. Spoken of above back up freshman DE Aidan Hutchinson is a beast. And CM's kid brother is going to be a star. Poised and a very good athlete.

As noted above ND QB Ian Book put on a show and nice to see WR/PR Chris Finke make some noise. Just wish they had more of a white presence on defense although S turned LB Drue Tranquill is playing at an NFL caliber level. All over the field.

Georgia Tech is in free fall and speedster Noah Cottrell is being ignored. Just two carries the past two games.

Mason Rudloph's brother Logan is a freshman edge player from Clemson who looked terrific in his spell yesterday.

Oregon State is so fruit cup they make me sick and BC's offense was finally exposed as Purdue thrashed them.

Too bad they lost but Air Force has a true speedster RB in sophomore Kadin Remsberg. His stat line from late last night was 17-94-1. Once he hits the open field good night.

Despite the true high that is missing the defensive play by white athletes in general has been very good so far this season.

MISS STATE'S all black defense shriveled up last night against KY.

Still I wonder what kind of 40 yard dash speed QB's like McSorley, Milton, Dungey and Fitzgerald will put up at the NFL Combine?

Unfortunately North Carolina State's WR Thayer Thomas was hurt early and missed the rest of his game. He had 2 catches for 45 yards too. Damn. Concussion or shoulder?

And all black Buffalo has a freshman white WR Charlie Jones who hauled in a 53 yard TD pass.

As mentioned above our man Zane Dudek had an off game (for him) but two FCS WRs we have been keeping an eye on came up big!

Jesper Horsted (Princeton) 8-150-3. Second week in a row with a big game!!

Bryce Nunnelly (UTC) 5-108-3. Ripping it up this season.

So hope hasn't totally vanished but things remain tough out there especially when it comes to white WRs and lack of white defenders.

Thanks for the update, Heretic.

As I noted, I used to follow college ball much more closely, until the early part of this decade. Anyhow, I sort of remember Mike Riley being fairly white friendly at Oregon State, kind of like a Mike Leach or Chip Kelly type. Didn't Riley have Mike Hass and Sabby Piscatelli as big stars on his white friendly teams at Oregon State?

Point? As someone who has not followed much last few years, I'm kind of surprised Riley would recruit that way anywhere (even at Miami or South Carolina type schools)....but particularly surprised (shocked) at Nebraska!

Have to wonder if recruiting mostly all-black teams at Nebraska was his choice, or did some "higher up" push him in that direction...perhaps University President or AD?
Riley was the personal choice of the AD, who was canned midway through last season. I believe he wanted Riley to run the program like this and recruit the way he did, basically abandoning the "Nebraska Way". He recruited a bunch of thugs when he was at OSU and it eventually caught up with him...

Oregon State University and its head football coach Mike Riley tolerated a culture of sexual violence and discouraged rape victims from reporting the assaults, a second woman claims in court.

...

Samuelson says Oregon State failed to address the “hostile and sexually violent culture toward women permitted by OSU’s football program,” did not implement effective policies to prevent sexual assault, did not properly educate students, coaches and faculty about consent and sexual assault, refused to properly investigate assault allegations, did not appropriately discipline football players based on the severity of their actions, and refused to provide services to students who had been assaulted.

I read somewhere that he's now back at OSU making $50K a year as some sort of consultant or something.

Just noticing how much the word "efficient" is being used when describing white QBs.

This new generation and all the weird crap.....

And what happens when they marry someone with 2 last names. Do they then have 4 last names? And what if their kids, with 4 last names, get married to someone with 4 last names? Then they now have eight.

Having 2 hyphenated last names is yet another counter-culture idea that won't work too well in the long run. The old ways are the best ways.
