You have to love the Steve Pederson-Dave Wannstedt Pitt Panthers, where after a season opening home loss to Bowling Green and clawing your way back into the Top 25, you get blasted by a struggling Rutgers, who hung half a hundred on Pitt.....I could not figure out whether Penn State is better than I thought or if Ohio State is worse than I thought. One I thing I know is that I do not want to see an undefeated inferior Big Ten team getting waxed in the title game.......If Texas Tech was ever going to emerge into the land of the big boys, it would be this weekend as they host #1 Texas.......Missouri took out frustrations bombing a decent Colorado team 58-0; ouch....The worlds largest cocktail party will take place this weekend and it should be top notch drama, and it looks like Florida over Georgia based on how they are playing, but.....Offenses these days are just staggering in the points they can put up. Oklahoma had 55 at the half versus Kansas State and the Wildcats had 28 themselves, while Texas Tech had over 50 on Orange Bowl Champs Kansas......When Florida State and Virginia Tech get together, you better tighten up the headgear. Last year, FSU QB Drew Weatherford got knocked cold and this year both VT quarterbacks were injured and had to leave while the Seminoles lost their top two running backs with second string back Jermaine Thomas getting knocked lights out.....Everyone is talking about Ohio State true freshman quarterback Terrell Pryor, but Robert Griffin III is putting on a real show at Baylor, one you should take notice of.
