They’re the Mountaineers by the way, since you’re wondering.Lloyd Carr has ALWAYS done too little with the talent he has on hand, but goodness this was ridiculous.That Mario Manningham guy is pretty good. You might want to throw it to him more often…. 2. Give the points and take whoever SYRACUSE is playing.A 42-14 beating at home to a mediocre(tm) WASHINGTON team??With the money you win, buy the ‘Cuse some new unis. PLEASE.The only thing that much loud orange is good for is finding the dead bodies after a lake effect blizzard.Too bad they can’t play DUKE in a futility bowl… 3. NOTRE DAME is worse than expected.Yet somehow they were favored in this game. Oh year, the lines are about evening out the bets… 4. OKIE STATE is as average as I expected, which is apparently a lot less than what others expected.Never did see the logic in this trendy upset pick at +6.5Though KANSAS STATE gave AUBURN more trouble than expected. 5. Classy move by USC’s PETE CARROLL on the extra pointto honor their deceased kicker from last year. 6.  7 yards rushing for VIRGINIA.  110 yards total offense?THAT’s a long plane ride home from WYOMING…. 7. NORTHERN COLORADO gave up 63 points to HAWAIIBut on the plus side managed to get off 7 punts without getting their kicker stabbed again…. 8. Wondering if Riley Dodge is rethinking changing his commitment from TEXAS to NORTH TEXAS to play for his dad 9. Pretty sure MINNESOTA is happy that Michigan bombed so bad  so no one notices how they blew it vs BOWLING GREEN. 10 Aggie related idle thoughtT’was nice watching the last team to kick the sh*t out of us in a bowl game kick the sh*t out of the second to last team who kicked the sh*t out of us in bowl game.  And Finally:The Virginia Tech stories were moving and emotionalbut I must say I’m surprised I didn’t hear anyone referencethe Bonfire Tragedy at A&M. The Aggies had to play Texas a mere TWO WEEKS after 12 students died building a bonfirethat directly relates to beating Texas in football. UNTIL NEXT WEEK WHEN WE LEARN:If TCU is for real vs TEXAS, who might not be. ARK STATE? In Austin??if NEBRASKA (at WAKE FOREST) is as solid as they looked. Then USC awaits the Huskers after that. Good luck with that.If MIAMI is as solid as their 31-3 win looked or if OKLAHOMA  really is as good as the 79 they hung on NORTH TEXAS BUT IF I HAD A MILLION DOLLARS, NEXT WEEKEND I’D BE IN ….Baton Rouge Louisiana.Time to see if LSU is really ready for a MNC run.If so, they’ll use VIRGINIA TECH as Tiger Bait.Death Valley. Saturday Night. It don’t get no better than that.Gentlemen, start your smokers…
