Week One College Football- Day Long College Football Post!!

7:55 Auburn 13 Tech 10- Bama and VT game getting interesting That is it for the thread. I am going to a LSU watching party and see the rest of the Tech game there!!!

7:24
LA Tech is trying to do something here. I have to say the QB play has improved a lot. Our running game has been stymied.

Bama Score first with a field Goal inthe VT game

7:03
Bama is about to kick off!! In other SEC news Arkansas is taking care of business Arky Hogs Arkansas 21 -- Missouri St. 3 -- Q2

Bad news for Tech. Stupid mistake for Tech - Fumble. Tech can't make those mistakes in this game if they want to keep it close

6:56
Auburn looks better than last year. Still they just got a big break on a almost fumble.
This BYU and Okla game is interesting. BYO 0 Okla 7 with 10:15 left in the second

6:40
Auburn 10 LA Tech 7 in the first. Auburn is making th sensible choice of going no huddle and getting to the line quick to wear down the Tech Defense


6:19
Wow it appears my prayers for the SEC at Mass a 30 minutes or so ago (excluding Auburn today) did not help Georgia. I am anxious to find out what happen. EIther yes Georgia is down as thought or the Okies are indeed back!!! Okies 24 Bulldogs 10

Auburn 3 La Tech 0 currently early in the First. Tech's First Drive is not going great

4:25
OFF TO MASS
The Big Games I want to see LA TECH, BAMA, and LSU are tonight. Later

4:15
DUH!!! Georgia does a fumble and stupid personal foul on the top of that. Lucky for them they kept the Okies to 3. It is Okies 10 to Georgia's three at the half.

Notre Dame looks like a different team. 28 to zip at the half against Nevada
USC in firm control against San Jose. Oh us USC haters were given false hope.

3:52
For Louisiana Readers poor ole Div II Nicholls is getting romped by Air Force 72 to 0 and it is not even that late in 4th yet!!!!
Notre Dame is taking care of Business against Nevada 21 to zip at the half
USC seems to have gotten its legs under them after a rough start. 14 to 3 against San Jose State in the closing minutes of the second
Wake Forest has come back a tad. It is Baylor 10 Wake Forest 7

Okie State after a rough start a tad has down tied it with Georgia 7 to 7 with just minutes left in the first half


2:50
Well Georgia looked impressive in that drive. Georgia 7 Okla State 0 early in the 1st

2:20
The SEC is representing pretty good today
Kentucky 42 Miami of Ohio 0 Final
Might as well put this on IN the books long ago Tenn 63 WKU 7 with about three minutes left
Little ole Liberty Made it respectable WV 33 Liberty 20 Final
Iowa barely and I mean barely just escapes the upset!!! Iowa 17 Northern Iowa 16
Boston College is just shell shacking Northeastern 38 to 0 at the half

2:05
Well it got exciting at the end. Navy almost pulled a huge upset and if had not fumbled away a couple of balls could have won. Final Navy 27 Ohio State 31.

There is no upset brewing in Colorado Springs Louisiana readers. At the start of the second quarter Air Force 17 Nicholls St 0

1:50
The Jim Tressell is a Idiot part of this post. I said Navy was done. Well that predicated on the Coach of Ohio State going for the three making it a three possession game. He goes for the first down it doesn't get it. On the next play Navy gets a touchdown. From a Three possession game with 6 minutes left to a 8 point game. Amazing. Navy is one tough sob

1:45
I suppose I should make a prediction on perhaps the mid afternoon game of the day. That is Georgia v Oklahoma St. While Georgia is hurting this year at tad like Auburn its woes have been overstated. Even with a quarterback with the flu. This could be a very good and close game. However I have heard the "Oklahoma State is going to be big this year" mantra too many times. Georgia is having to go on the road for this but I am saying Georgia wins

Stick a knife in Navy. They just threw a interception. Not enough time to make up the distance now.

For my Louisiana readers Air Force has jumped out to a quick 7 to 0 lead over little ole Nicholls State

1:30
Up North the SEC is represent. Kentucky is ahead 35 to zero on Miami of Ohio. Miami of Ohio seems like one of those teams that should improve more than it does.

Iowa still screwing up . Northern Iowa still holding to a 3 point lead.

Navy killed itself with a fumble again. Ohio State 29 Navy 14. This might have been a different game without those two fumbles.

Tenn now up 35 to zip over WKU. Ouch!!

1:15
Ok Maybe I spoke too soon on Navy Imploding. Navy will not win this game but they despite some adversity has really put a long long drive together. HOLY CRAP Navy just scored- Ohio St 20 Navy 14. Huge score there. As a Tech fan I am not looking forward to playing them next week. A pretty outstanding drive.

12:50
Lou Holtz and ESPN are brilliant!!! You know everyone loves to hate Lou Holtz because he says the most outrageous things. LOU needs to go people say !!! He says such things as Notre Dame will be playing in the National Championship. Just now he said Charlie Weiss is a under rated Coach thus causing numerous threads on all the message boards saying LOU is crazy. That little exchange we saw wth May and Holtz was planned you idiots. People say that Lou must go but they are all turning into the "Dr Lou" segments to see what he says so they can go the next day LOU IS CRAZY!! Result Chick-fil-A sells more chicken and Holtz and May and ESPN are laughing all the way to the bank. Brilliant marketing by ESPN.

In other news
Navy is really imploding against Ohio State.
Kentucky is 21 to 0 against Miami of Ohio
Baptist dreams are dying as WV is beating Liberty 23 to 10 at the half
Iowa is still having problems . It is Iowa 3 Northern Iowa 13
The rout is on in Knoxville Tenn 28 to Western Kentucky 0
Everything else panning out as expected


12:30- Thought on Coaches in the Armed Forces. Just saw Navy Coach escorted by a couple of regular looking policemen. The State Troopers are often a status item to have around. Some State Troopers are expects into getting into the Camera shot at the end of the game. Would it not be cool for like Army and Navy and Air Force to have some decked out Military guys (Rangers, Seals, etc with awesome firepower) escorting those Coaches!!

Oh Tenn is over their problems . Good grief 21 to 0 and still 7 min left till the half. Knoxville is happy

12:20-

Things appear to be entering their proper orbit again. Ohio St pretty much in control now Ohio St 20 Navy 7 at the Half

Tenn Vols appear to be a different team in the second quarter so far. Worked out the kinks I guess. Now 14 to 0 with 10 min to go in the second half.

The WV v Liberty game is still interesting.

Kentucky taking care of business with Miami of Ohio currently 14 to 0 in the second.

A little drama in Iowa as Northern Iowa is leading 22 ranked Iowa 10 to 3 with just seconds left before the half

12:05 pm

Tenn Vols Score 7 to zip against WKU- I am anxious to see how Tenn finishes out this second quarter

Early on the Liberty V WV game is still interesting WV 17 Liberty 10 with Liberty having the ball in the Second quarter

11. 52 am

Hmm could this be a brutal year for Louisiana Tech (my other team) no matter what progress we have made. I am watching the Navy/Ohio Game and Navy looks improved. Navy I think sets the tone of the season

Jerry Falwell's College Liberty is tied with West Virgina!!!! 10 to 10

The Tennessee Vols are not exactly looking impressive so far. Western Kentucky does not look intimidated at all
