College Football is back!

[NiftyNiblick]

Tough for BC to recruit, too many standards, and college football in New England has remained regional, of which BC doesn’t have any real rivals

If we had a league with Army, Navy, Penn State, Pittsburgh, Syracuse, Rutgers, Maryland, Temple, and Connecticut, for example, it might have flown.

Nobody wants a steady diet of Virginia, Virginia Tech, North Carolina, Duke, NC State, Wake Forest, Clemson, Georgia Tech, Florida State and Miami.
because we're a very provincial, geography-bigoted [Earl's description] area.
The ACC package draws crickets for TV ratings. They'd do better showing Little Rascals or Three Stooges shorts instead.

In the Flutie era, we had had some great games with Clemson, Miami, and Alabama, but they were like dessert, not the main course.
College football is dead here, now, and nobody seems to care. Even Harvard, which used to average about 25,000 when I was a kid, draws flies now.

The Brady-less Pats don't exactly give me the vapors either.

I'm happy if just the freakin' Red Sox get their act together.

More likely other schools now have the luxury of buying players as Sabin has done for years, as he accused Fisher of doing

Last year he accused Deion Sanders of paying a player $1M when sanders was at Jax State.
He seems to be losing his mind.

Yes we are... Crusaders they will always be to me... (nice to hear that BU won though...)

Didn't you graduate from F.U.?

Do you get the feeling Saban's aura of invincibility has worn off?

Not today I didn't. The defense crushed Ole Miss, and the offense looked much better. The O-line still needs work, and the center needs to be replaced.

No team really stands out at this point.
Nice to see Kansas at 4-0. Second year straight.

Penn State QB looked like a 3rd stringer for a Div. II team today.
Phew!
Not a quality game.
Hope Tenn. - Alabama is better.

The Alabama/TN game was great, especially the 2nd half

Two completely different games, 1st half and 2nd half.

Who is watching Ohio State/MIchigan? I’m listening to it as we are driving home from Kentucky. Who do I want to win? Guess I’ll have to root for Harbaugh’s team since no one likes him.

Me.

LSU’s shitty defense will cost Jayden Daniels the Heismann. Too bad. He clearly deserves it.

We’re watching it here! We’re rooting for Michigan.

Do you know who talked Top off the ledge after Michigan destroyed OSU's season?

Don’t forget Mott.

It will be interesting to see what happens to Harbaugh.

zzzzzzzzz

I expect someone will poach Tulane’s coach.
Always happens when they have a run of success.

 

[Damocles]

I find it hard to watch college football. The pace is just so sloooooooow...

Alabama cannot jump Texas in the CFP rankings.
