Some coaching news: 

Geoff Collins was let go at Georgia Tech, with assistant coach Brent Key taking over. Key, a former Tech player, took the Rambling Wreck to Pittsburgh and dumped the Panthers scoring a huge upset nobody saw coming.

Colorado fired Karl Dorrell. The Buffaloes have been horrific this season. Eric Bienemy, a former CU running back and current OC for the Kansas City Chiefs, seems to make a lot of sense.

We thought Wisconsin was descending but we did not see the Badgers staggering in this fashion. It is so bad, coach Paul Chryst was shown the door. The Badgers seem to be looking at assistant and former player Jim Leonhard, Kansas coach Lance Liepold who is a Wisconsin native or former assistant Dave Doren, now head coach at NC State. 

Pitt, Nebraska, Wisconsin, Texas A&M, Miami, Oklahoma, Texas and Notre Dame are all underperforming and in the dog house.

Who’s Hot: 

Kansas Rock Talk Jayhawk! Kansas defeated Iowa State to move to 5-0, and now, perhaps a week too late, ESPNs Gameday will visit Lawrence Kansas for the very first time. Deservedly so. The job Lance Liepold has done is without question something to admire, and due to his success, he may have many majors attempting to acquire his services, including Nebraska and Wisconsin, both of which he has ties to. Congrats to Kansas, but TCU this weekend will be quite telling. 

Shout out to The Frogs of TCU. They hung a half a hundred on Oklahoma. 

Who’s Not: 

Oklahoma. The Sooners have been blasted for two consecutive weekend, allowing a staggering amount of points in the process. New Sooner head man Brent Venebles is considered a defensive genius, so this has to be quite concerning. Could a season with four losses await OU? 

NC State. A special season for a veteran Wolfpack team, which returned seventeen starters, grounded to a halt at Clemson. The Tigers dominated in Death Valley, even though NC State has played Clemson well in many a season, winning in Raleigh last year. Might a deflated Wolfpack collapse? Is head Coach eyeing the newly opened job at Wisconsin, a placed he previously spent time at as an assistant? 

Minnesota. Looking impressive and crashing into the Top 25 last week, the Gophers melted in the spotlight and got punked at home by a depleted Purdue team. The Gophers could still win the B1G West, but that is nothing to brag about. 

The B1G West. Nicely stated, this division is quite competitive, but the reality is the division is a shit show. None of the teams are very good and two coached have already been fired; Scott Frost and Paul Chryst. 

Georgia barely escaped Missouri, so they must relinquish the top spot after two weeks of shaky play. Alabama takes over, and Ohio State is lurking.
