Big 10 gets absolutely hollowed out today. No lube, no spit, nothing.

Beamer probably lasts at least 30 years at VT now.

Jesus. For all of the expectations and success last year for UCLA, they look like hot garbage through 1.75 games this year. Hopefully they hold on against Memphis.

They believed they could show up and just win, we looked rough as hell yesterday.

Wait for it...Alum will be in here shortly with his 2-0 record bullshit.


Iowa’s D is pretty good.

Red Zone offense is terrible. Kicking is terrible. Execution is terrible.

2-0 is exactly the sort of bs JJ uses in this thread year in and year out despite playing terrible teams the majority of the season. I’m just using it right back at him. It’s meant to be facetious to everyone else.

Mizzou (UCF’s next opponent) looked decent on the road against what was supposed to be a pretty good MAC team in Toledo. Brief scouting report for you Knight fans:

I am not sold on Maty Mauk as QB but he will be fun to watch. He is high-risk, all or nothing. I suspect good SEC secondaries will devour him. He likes home run balls -- I mean, that’s basically his entire game, as far as I can see -- so he’s going to throw a lot of TDs and yards but also a lot of picks. I don’t know anything about UCF’s secondary, but if it’s good, they could give Mauk a very bad day. He tried a few screens but they didn’t really work out. He is not exactly cool in the pocket and likes to run and throw. Under good pressure he will make dumb throws.

So far there only two stars on this team: DE Markus Golden and ATH Marcus Murphy. Golden is a beast who will get his sacks, looks better and faster than Michael Sam (co-SEC defensive player of the year) did last year. The other DE Shane Ray is almost as good. D-line will be one of the best in the SEC. Murphy is the all-around playmaker who can rush, catch, run, return. Like Jeremy Maclin was for us. If he gets hurt our hopes probably go down the toilet.

Coach booted Dorial Green-Beckham for repeated issues but reports of the receiving corps’ demise are greatly exaggerated. Plenty of tall guys who can run and catch. Bud Sasser, Darius White, Murphy... they will be fine. If Mauk matures and gets more accurate, they will be more than fine.

Really wish I could be there in Columbia for the game! If any of you go and want tips let me know.

Notre Dame is for real fellas!

Brutal with the Bama game called early and the 1 pt. loss ATS....now I know why they went with Sims, Coker is garbage.

No words can describe what Texas is right now.

Notre Dame is good, but Michigan is not. I don’t know that I’d get too excited just yet.

And yeah, Texas is horrible. Maybe UCLA can finally look good next week.

This.

They also haven’t gotten to meat of their schedule yet.. and only 4 true Away games does not a statement make.
