    Yeah I’ve shoved it on espn player (that I thought I’d cancelled)

    Bc qb does not look bad and they’re moving it pretty well. Closer game than anyone would’ve imagined.

    Cincinnati seem to get the least hype of the major AAC teams, but they've stomped Memphis & SMU in consecutive games & they look like they might be the only one with a defence. Ahmad Garnder is a stud, and they have a handful of other guys who will probably get drafted too. I'm still not sure where I stand on Desmond Ridder, but he's definitely draftable & plenty good enough to keep them competitive against pretty much anyone.

    They have Houston next week & UCF two weeks after, so you'd imagine if they can take those they might end up running the table (do also have Temple left to be fair). Imagine if we have Cincinnati & BYU both going undefeated & having to be talked about as legit playoff contenders

    This Clemson game looks like it's going down to the wire. Travis Etienne now the all time ACC rushing leader, and he's definitely got better as a receiver. Dude is gonna be a first rounder, especially when he runs a 4.35 forty.

    He’s a stud.

    CEH and Deandre Swift showing exactly why. He’ll go in that 25-35 range I’d imagine.

    Fast, can catch, smart, dedicated.

    I have a bad feeling he'll end up a Falcon

    Clemson hold on in the end, while Michigan immediately shit the bed after providing some brief hope they might be okay this year.

    Confirmed that Trevor will be out for the Notre Dame game next week. Should've been expected given the ACC have a mandatory 10 day window for people to sit out after a positive diagnosis, but at least everyone will get a week to practice saying Uiagalelei I suppose. They're gonna need to know for the next couple of years.

    Can imagine chase Brice for one whiff of him in practice before jumping ship to Duke.

    LSU must be one of the worst defending national champions ever.

    Yeah, LSU look really bad on both sides of the ball. You can kinda forgive the offence since they lost almost literally the entire thing, but it's surprising to see the defence so bad when they do still have some dudes there.

    The Clemson QB room for next week is probably a billion points in scrabble - DJ Uiagalelei & Taisun Phommachanh.

    EDIT: Congratulations Texas on ensuring that the Big 12 doesn't have anyone in the playoffs this year.

    I've ranked the PAC-12 teams at the bottom of their respective tiers as they've not actually played yet, but those are the buckets I'd expect them to fall in over the next few weeks.

    I do love how the defender just couldn't be bothered to react.

    No point in getting a broken hand yourself.

    PAC-12 kicking off now although they’ve already had to cancel two of the games, so not ideal. USC against Arizona State is now & should be the most interesting game, then we also have Georgia/Florida in the middle set of games, which might decide who ends up in the last playoff slot.

    Yeah. Interested to watch more Kyle trask.

    Florida are pretty good and got humbled by a really good A&M win. Be interesting if A&M run the table and then are compared against a strong Florida team, whom they beat.

    Michigan & Penn State have both embarrassed themselves so far this season. Neither will be ranked when I do the next update on my top 25.

    USC scraped by on late game heroics today, but Arizona State looked like they'll be able to give anyone in the PAC-12 a game again this year. Also, fucking hell Georgia Letting Justin Fields go looks worse & worse every week (not that they'd have used him effectively anyway if the stuff they did with him when they did have him was anything to go by).

    Well, I guess Notre Dame are favourites for the final playoff spot now, although to be honest we should really have a play in game between them & Florida. Wisconsin & TAMU might be in contention as well. Can't wait for the rematch in the ACC Championship game when Trevor's back & Clemson beat them by 30.

    Update for this week:

    Toggle Spoiler


    I nearly kept Clemson at the top despite the loss, as I still think they're the best team when Trevor's there, but you'd have to imagine that they'll end up as the #3 seed for the playoffs now, in which case they'll have to beat Ohio State & Alabama back to back, which might be enough to do it. I kept them ahead of OSU as I do think they'd be the favourites if they end up playing in the playoff semi finals - I'm not sure OSU are as good as they were last season.

    The next tier is a massive bunch as, while Notre Dame & Florida are the clear favourites for the final playoff spot right now, they'll both have to play Conference Championship games against someone in the top tier, and if they both get crushed in those games it'll probably be enough to open the door for the PAC-12 if Oregon or USC manage to go unbeaten. Texas A&M could end up with an outside shot if their only loss is to Alabama, and Wisconsin have a shot if they can win the Big 10, while Cincinnati & BYU could be in the conversation if they stay undefeated & things break their way.

    The Big 12 continues to do its best to be a complete mess, and they're inevitably all going to combine to ruin each other's chances, but if one of them can get their shit together they might have a tiny chance at sneaking in as the Conference Champion. Miami have a tiny chance if they can find a way into the ACC title game, and with Liberty knocking off a second ACC team this week I felt it was time to give the unbeaten small schools their spots. Indiana are the hype team of the Big 10, but they're in Ohio State's side of the conference, whereas Northwestern are on the Wisconsin side, so they've got a better chance at actually making the title game.

    This might be the worst slate of college games I can remember - all of the interesting games have been postponed & we’re left with stuff like Penn State/Nebraska, Purdue/Northwestern & Notre Dame/Boston College as the most exciting options on the card.

    Arkansas vs Florida might be interesting for the Felipe franks stakes (assuming he’s playing)

    At what point does trask become a draft qb contender. Must be working his way towards day 2 now? He’s fucking massive so got the right physical attributes and he’s a fighter as a walk on.

    He’s a bit fucked with Lawrence, fields and trey lance out there alongside the raft of qbs drafted the last few years.

    Lock has looked like he can't really be arsed.

    At least that's what I've been getting from the bits Redzone have shown.

    I dunno what to make of Lock but today he hasn't even done his "crank it up when it's a shit position in the fourth quarter" bit so if he's not doing that then I'm not sure what he offers.

    I suspect we stick with him for the season unless he goes properly off the deep end and then see if he shows significant signs of improvement before deciding what to do next off-season.

    I know Sutton being out is a bummer but there's enough there that he could be doing better.

    That game was awful and further showcases why Greg Roman needs to be fired.

    He refuses to adapt (last week was the first time he's done it in his life) and it makes us not only more predictable but he's actively not playing into Lamar's strengths.

    It's like last year he borrowed someone else's playbook or had help in crafting it to make it play into Lamar's strengths but this year he was determined to go back to his bullshit play calls.

    It's a torrential storm, we have a center who can't snap the ball and on a crucial 4th and 1 he calls a wildcat to Mark Ingram who is clearly still injured. Even if that ball had been snapped correctly we weren't getting the first down. The Pats knew how to play, just run the ball as it's not going to be easy to pass in that weather but Roman seems obsessed into trying to mould Lamar into a pocket passer who needs to throw the ball 40-50 times.

    Also, I don't know if Roman is actively telling Lamar not to break out of the pocket or if Lamar is trying to prove to people he can pass but there were times when Lamar would have had an easy first down with his legs but kept it. He'd only really scramble out if the Pats put pressure on him which wasn't that much as they were determined not to rush the passer as much so they can keep an extra man or two downfield.

    That Roman can't see that our team is so much more expansive when we run first (and has been since Flacco was here) is insane. It opens up so many more options.

    Oh and Dobbins and Gus look so much better than Ingram right now (he was clearly still hurt last night) yet Roman seems to actively hate them and will lean on Ingram so much more.

    Are Washington Football Club and their quarterback with a false leg going to win the NFC East?

    The whole division should get some sort of punishment for being collectively awful.
