    Agreed about Barrett.

    Tom Herman was a very strong OC that helped them get to another National Championship with a 3rd String QB. They've been underwhelming since.

    That was bizarre.
    ND has been advertising for tickets in the Indy Star every week since May. This was unheard of just 2 years ago.

    Wowza.

    If I read it correctly, they had a capital projects plan that allowed them to, I guess, put up a $400 million "addition" to the stadium. There is a lot of grumbling about how the mystique is gone at the hands of mediocre, money grabbing administrators.

    I mean hypothetically if you could sell a $1,000 ticket to a Georgia fan if you weren't going to be attending the game, would you? It's interesting to think about, seemed almost like a home game at times for Georgia. Also an unrelated fact, I read somewhere that this was Georgia's first game north of the Mason-Dixon line in like 60 years or something crazy like that.

    I was in Chicago this weekend. My hotel was full of Ga people.
    Most of those folks went to the ND game, and stayed for the ATL/ BEARS game on Sunday. Downtown Chicago was crawling with Ga folks.

    As much as they suck, and after losing Deebo they are sucking more, the Cocks provide some entertaining games.
    ...he went up late, and I was already up there.

    This week was really strange, with a lot of giants sleepwalking.

    Penn state having to win with 4 seconds left on 4th down.
    Michigan looked rough for a half against Purdue
    Tennessee barely beating UMASS
    Florida scraping by Kentucky
    Oklahoma and Baylor going down to the wire..
    TCU thrashing Okie State..
    Florida State losing to NC State..

    The two most elite teams in my opinion are Alabama and Clemson, looks like we might have a rubber match in the NC game.

    Clemson was tied with BC until about 10 minutes to go in the 4th. So definitely some sleep walking from them as well.

    I guess you're not wrong there, Georgia looked pretty decent, need to grow a bunch on offense, but they have an elite defense. I think Oklahoma just had a sleep walk of a day as well, I still just don't see anybody stopping Bama this year, and I know that's been said in the last few years, but man, they look like they're on a revenge tour.

    Now would be a good time for the Texas A&M program and Kevin Sumlin's career to pull off the upset of the year. No big deal. Kyle Field at night will be explosive (at least at kickoff).

    If the Irish can maintain course at North Carolina, it sets up a big matchup with USC in two weeks.
