Akron leading Buffalo 3-2 late in the 1st quarter . . . I only mention it because it's not a score that you see very often!

Flying to Indiana and meet up with frat bros for the Victory bash?
Opposite direction. The 50th state.

Vanderbilt, Indiana and Georgia Tech in the top 10. I love it.

I'm definitely on board with Georgia Tech.  I could be wrong, but they feel like a nice one off.  I love a good one off college football team, where things come together.  I know King is a transfer, but I don't think they are a full on portal team like Indiana

A lot of Vandy coaches could have done better if they were allowed to admit Diego Pavea, let alone keep him.  I don't dislike them, but this isn't like James Franklin winning 8 games there.

Indiana, I'm now out on.  Cignetti is a great coach, and way to embrace the era, but lets not act like this is "Indiana".  It's a well paid for team, and the calls they were getting today is laughable.  I never thought I'd say this, but I hope Penn State upsets them

Ben hanging drywall all day.  Didn’t see Indiana.  
can you give a readers digest version of what kind of calls they were getting?

They got drives extended by phantom late hit/PI calls.  They had a legit late hit call by them picked up.  I mean its not like they won because of the refs, they dominated.  But this ain't Indiana.  This is a helmet team wearing a non-helmet at this point

For some reason, I think it's pretty when UNC plays Virginia.  I don't know why, but visually, I just like it.
Sort of like A&M vs LSU.

We didn't know what we had with the traditional ACC

I have a Maryland fan buddy, and he is just out across the board.  He has clarified that its not that they are "too good" for the Big Ten, but even in basketball he can't care about playing MSU and Purdue like he used to with Duke and UNC

Difference is Indiana was going to steamroll UCLA no matter how fireable the officiating in Bloomington was today. The head official fired this week by the SEC had heavy-handedly swung the game in Georgia's favor. NINE of his staff's flags/reviews were deemed incorrect. Not since 2009 has the SEC suspended (much less fired) an official.

Meanwhile, watching Texas near halftime Vs Mississippi State in Starkville. 24-14 Miss St leads. For some reason, because the audio sounds inverted on the SEC Network broadcast, with the crowd and cowbells louder than the announcer's commentary, the broadcast sounds like a high school game airing on a community-access channel.
