There’s still lots of time for bigger bags to be handed out before Signing Day.   

that's been u$c's recruiting strategy for the last 60 years!

Game #1 of the new season is an upset. 

FSU should be thankful the playoffs are 12 teams this year.

It’s amazing that DJU was paid to ruin three different programs.  

More great work from GT HC Brent Key.  The guys a stud and has a bright future.  

[Deleterious]

I totally forgot they are going with a 2 minute warning now.

Love Northwestern’s temporary new stadium.  Absolutely beautiful lakeside on the last day of August.  It’s going to be interesting to see what it looks like in November.  
 

EDIT: They have moved the November games to Wrigley Field.

So far I’ve been impressed with Penn State, Miami, Texas, Vandy’s QB, Iowa’s offense, Ashton Jeanty, and the next great Ohio St. WR.  

[Deleterious]

The 12th man is angry.

I know it was against Illinois State but I had to do a double take when I saw that Iowa scored 40 points.

Checking out for a few hours with my sobriety .  Hopefully, Miller Moss, Zachariah Branch, and Ja’Kobi Lane are household names when I return.

There's a certain irony to the Modelo Kickoff Classic being played by a bunch of 19 and 20-somethings who cannot legally purchase Modelo.

At least they're giving us a good game to watch though.

Brian Kelly killed a kid.

i think they 36 yards at half time and everyone was teasing them. then ended up with over 450.

It's like Napier and Norvell are in a race to see who can get fired first.  

[Hongbit]

I’m having a hard time figuring out if DJU reminds me more of Tim Boyle or Nate Sudfeld.

Much appreciation to Florida State for proving once again that preseason rankings ain't worth diddly freaking pooh.

I think if you asked a handful of people today to make a prediction for what the 2030 AP preseason poll would look like, answers would turn out to be pretty largely on the nose.

I'd be more interested in a prediction of what the football conferences look like and what the nonfootball conferences look like in 2030.

[Deleterious]

Very cool.

ND upset alert.  They are up 1 with under a minute left in the game.  Northern Illinois is within FG range.  

[Deleterious]

Down goes Notre Dame!  

[Deleterious]

Notre Dame had a 63 yard FG attempt blocked on the final play of the game.
