Thayer Thomas also had a 74-yard punt return for a touchdown for NC State.
Thomas had a 4-51 stat line as well. See below his nifty punt return.
Of course the UCLA Kyle Phillips 69 yard punt return was a huge play in that game. Interesting to note that both Chase Cota and Phillips were two of three white wide receivers who were listed in the top 60 or so in HS rankings of 2018. It was nice to see them explode for a change and hopefully this is only the beginning. Hard to say since that QB has been very erratic. The other highly rated white WR from that year is Austin Osborne of Washington but he hasn't played any at all as far as I can tell.
Iowa State's junior LB Jake Hummel returned an interception for a TD and showed great wheels in the process. Where is their speedster WR Landen Akers though? No factor this year.
I watched the Michigan game and yes CM's younger brother QB Dylan was skulled in the worst way by a black DB. Terrible. Patterson did not have his A game but something is amiss with the Wolverines. They were overpowered for the second straight game and it shocks me that they don't let Patterson do some free range stuff including running. Just sits in the pocket with little time. second straight week their offensive schemes look poorly drawn out. RB Groshek of Wisconsin as mentioned above looked swell but he got injured and didn't play the second half. Not sure about the injury.
Also noticed Auburn WR Will Hastings didn't play. Probably due to the skull shot he took in prior game.
I woke up around 2:00 AM and couldn't believe there was nearly a quarter left to play in the UCLA wild affair. Have to check Borghi's age because if he is old enough he should enter the draft. That Washington State HC is a weird pea brain.
Thanks TwentyTwo for another great wrap. Yes JR Plumlee is a big time athlete and unlike so many baseball prospects he wasn't stupid enough to ditch football altogether.
Utah State beat San Diego State away from home no less. Michigan States terrific Joe Bachie had a tremendous game against Northwestern and should be a first round pick. But even he has to take a back seat to David Woodward who finished with 13 tackles for the night. If I was an NFL team I would nab him in a heartbeat.
I would say so far Northwestern is the biggest disappointment this year so far. They look dead in the water and even promising new QB Hunter Johnson has looked shaky. Their D is still solid of course with LB Fisher ( another easy first round talent) and gang but hopefully they get going on offense.
North Carolina lost to App State which was great to see. That is two in a row for their old fashioned caste master. Also glad A&M and AZ ST lost and now that Stanford has gone more caste there level of play has dropped.
Bamas WR Slade Bolden got a few touches in another blowout.
