hmmm maybe FSU was really overrated to begin the year? The defense is really talented and always was going to be good, but that OL was bad last year and it doesn't look any better this year. Dalvin Cook was special- he literally accounted for like 68% of all offensive production for FSU last year and made something out of nothing routinely and made that OL look a lot better than it was. No way they were going to just replace that- especially with a bad OL. Once they lost Francois it was all she wrote.

Cool.  Big Ten record, 7 different receivers with a TD today for Ohio State.

Yes, overrated even before Francois went down. The hole the Seminoles are trying to right now climb from Vs NC State has less to do with missing the Francois and more to do with the defense not rising to the challenge; with the offense losing Cook and the OL not expected to be improved the loaded D was the reason for preseason #2. The true frosh QB Blackman is passing quite well - 17/25 192yds.

Except you can't deny he made some beautiful throws today.  
Most coaches let their new offense develop some confidence against the early season cupcakes...that's all Meyer is doing.  The only difference is the Buckeyes did not have any cupcakes until now.  If he was intereste in padding stats he wouldn't pull Barrett with 8 minutes left in the first half.
He pulled JTB because even UFM sees the limitations IMO

I can't believe that UMass and Tennessee are in a dog fight.

NCSU was my most under rated pick.  They outplayed USCe and wrestled defeat from the jaws of victory.  I thought they had a good shot in this one (which isn't over, but FSU looks out of kilter).

NCSU playing pretty well on D.

Speaking of uniforms, I turned on the Arkansas game and at first thought it was Ohio State on ESPN.

Arkansas goes up in the Hot Seat Bowl, but lets up a good kick return

Who's more likely to pull off the shocker between Rutgers and Purdue?

Sumlin showing why he is on the hot seat in not trying to score a touchdown despite getting a first and goal.  Instead plays for overtime.

that's really why I thought they were overrated- that OL was sooooo bad last year and it really doesn't look much better through 2 games this year. Add losing Dalvin Cook who was their entire offense- and I just did not see the #2 team.
