VOTES: Georgia Tech, Florida State, Auburn, Utah, California, UCLA, South Carolina, Notre Dame, Wisconsin,

That was some hit absorbed, kinda, by Tim Tebow as Florida plowed Kentucky. Glad to see Tebow will live to torch up some more defenses. It looked bad!



California was living the high life with a lofty ranking until getting hammered, and I mean hammered, by the Quack Attack in the old uniforms......We noted in last weeks commentary that losses were coming for Penn State and North Carolina, but we did not know it would be this weekend......Ole Miss got shut down by South Carolina, home of OLB Eric Norwood, a pre-season All America, who is a force and should contend with Tennessee's Eric Berry for SEC defensive player of the year. South Carolina winning with defense is quite funny I think.....Miami got blasted by Virginia Tech, which lead to us to many questions we cannot yet answer.....Southern Cal is the most talented team ranked outside the top ten in many a moon, but they lack killer instinct in games in which they are heavily favored and have QB issues, for the time being.....Georgia has played a very tough schedule so far and has come through it with only one loss.....TCU won at Clemson, which is a big deal for them...It looks like both the ACC and Big Ten are conferences with a boatload of mediocre teams....Hats off to Houston, who is on the way to the BCS if this keeps up.

In a most unfortunate situation, Baylor has lost all world signal caller and world class hurdler Robert Griffin III to a season ending knee injury. This kid is a phenominal player and I sincerely hope he can return at 100%. Get well soon Robert!


South Florida came into Doak Campbell and manhandled the Seminoles. They out hit, out played, out held on to the ball, out drank, out entusiasmed (I know this is not a word) and most significantly, out coached FSU. How FSU could let this happen is unfortunately telling. Stupid penalties, three times inside USF's 10 yard line resulted in being stopped at the goal line and two turnovers. Fumbles, up the middle on third and 14, look out blocks galore, you name it. Also, in a shocking development, a field goal was missed wide right. Even the zebras took away a safety from us! I got a news flash for Coach Bowden, Jimbo and Oakley decked out Amato: Teams, and the officials for that matter, got us on their radar and are foaming at the mouth. I suggest we physically go kick someones ass. If this coaching staff and the players don't have the stomach for it, the desire to win, to persevere, then step aside for those that do. Coach Andrews said Greg Reid needed to learn plays before being thrown out there. Well, he can burnt with the best of them, but at least he brings one back the for the good guys every now and then. What I witnessed Saturday I deem unacceptable, so somebody up there better get with the program quick. Should this effort continue, I am not quite sure who to fire first, but it may just be everyone if this keeps up.

Congratulations to Nebraska on the 300th consecutive sellout. It was a great evening, and it was good to see some familiar faces like Larry the Cable Guy and Touchdown Tommie Frazier. Note in the picture at the top left we do represent Central Florida up there at Memorial Stadium on gameday.
