College football takes
#1
An interesting Saturday for sure in the ol' CFB scene. 
  • Belicheat and UNC: gross. The stadium was less than half full and the Tarheels stink. Clemson dog walked them in the first half. No word from Jordon....
  • What is it with Penn State and their annual chokefest that comes every single year? I do think Drew Allar is a NFL QB, but nobody shits the bed with higher expectations than the Nittany Lions every year.
  • Arch Manning looks like a kid that needs reps....needs to play more football. If he cares about a serious NFL career, he needs to stay for sure another year in college after this one. He currently smells like a guy that will throw a lot of INTs in the NFL. 
  • Vanderbilt gave the game away with their horrible turnovers in the worst spots against Alabama.
  • Colorado and Coach < Prime lost again. Under Sanders, Colorado is now 15-16 overall with more retired jerseys (2) than wins over ranked foes (1).
  • QBs I'm liking so far: Indiana QB Fernando Mendoza, Oregon QB Dante Moore and Alabama's Ty Simpson. 
  • Somebody in the NFL is going to get a big time gamer in Iowa State QB Rocco Becht. He impresses me every time I watch him. He's got nice NFL QB2 vibes. 
  • Man, Michigan coaches are really trying to keep QB Bryce Underwood from running and he's a force of nature if they'd let him. I get that he's a true freshman and although they are ranked 20th, this isn't their year to get into the playoffs, but let loose the reins a bit in Ann Arbor. Next year they could be a top 5 ranked team.
  • University of Miami looks really good, lots of excitement for them down here in south Florida.
  • Minnesota got a wake up call against Ohio State.....that's real talent in Columbus.
  • Nice win for Notre Dame against a scrappy Boise State squad.

If this kid's last name weren't "Manning" he wouldn't still be starting. Nobody would know who he is and certainly nobody would be talking about the NFL draft. 

Try as the media will, sometimes it just doesn't happen. Brian was no Bob Griese. Chris was no Phil Simms. And Arch isn't even the offspring of either Peyton or Eli. He's the son of Cooper, who never even played college ball. I think the media has to stop torturing this kid to squeeze into a narrative he can't fit into.

I think you can see his talent, though. He's big, fast and a nice arm. Athletic. Smart. He'd still be a top prospect without the Manning name, but certainly not as hyped.

I think Sarkasian is under the gun a bit now...Texas underperforms as much as the Vikings

Gophers havent won in Ohio for probably 25 years now...Trust me, they had no preconceived notions going in Wink

He’d have been better off going to a smaller school and playing.
