For those of you who believe QBR is a very legitimate measure of a quarterbacks performance, like I do, yesterday was very interesting.  ( by no means is it perfect- or the end all be all)

In the Ohio State versus Purdue matchup, you have the nations top two ranked quarterbacks by QBR. And they both very much delivered. QBR per game performance in the 90s which is fantastic.

Mertz for Wisc. also had a brilliant QBR performance at better than 96. That is approaching perfection.

Lastly, McNamara for Michigan is in the top 11 nationally, which is why I kind of chuckle when M.continually screams for the back up quarterback.

I think it is McNamara that gives Michigan a good chance to run the table and get to the playoff.

Didn't see that,didn't know Maine could field a team,either - had some bad asses in the Civil War though.Texas,wow it's broke they have to have some talent,enough to beat Kansas.Either players mailed it in or the staff isn't getting across to them. Kansas certainly reached back and left everything on the fihttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=t_pGIb6yA4Ueld but man that a once in an every other decade loss


It was their second loss to the Jayhawks in the last 5 years. So a four time a decade loss, at that clip. The highlights were something though. Texas stormed back from huge deficits two or three times, only to blow it in OT.

Baylor is a well-coached team.  They'll likely lose their current head coach in the near future, and will somehow find another good one to replace him.  Some teams seem capable of doing that.  Others, not so much.

A shitty Texas team is perfect for the SEC powers that be. They get increased access to Texas television markets and recruiting, without any threat to their traditional powers.

Didn't understand the Sark hire,he wasn't all that on his own and prone to benders (as we all can be).I might be wrong but it seems like every year they are getting their fare share of talent on the Forty Acres.Aranda or even Leonard have to be on someone's radar.I'd take a chance on a coach who has been successful  at smaller venues be it Div I,II,III.The mechanics/techniques/Xs and Os are the same.Just the size of players and stadiums change

On the bright side when Texas becomes the Kansas of the SEC, they might be able to knock off the Vols twice in a five year span.

Texas Tech kicks time expiring 62 yard FG to top Iowa State 41-38.

With that loss, Iowa State falls to 6-4 and, along with fellow preseason top ten fallout North Carolina (5-5), has to be considered one of this season’s most disappointing teams.

The Cyclones have the most productive passer AND rusher in school history, an experienced OL and 8 or 9 SRs on D yet Matt Campbell’s roster has looked half asleep all season.
not top 10, but ranked...

LSU was ranked #16 - now 4-6

Indiana was ranked #17 - now 2-8
Texas was ranked #21 - now 4-6
