> Georgia beats a hale and hearty Kent State team by the surprising score of 39-22.

As a matter of fact, the Golden Flashes scored more than twice as many points (22) than Georgia’s first three opponents combined (10), and one of those was Oregon.

The officiating at the TCU v Oklahoma is Pop-Warner level. I would seriously investigate these fuckers to see if they are on the take.

Big 12 refs are among the worst in the country. If your team is playing in a bowl game, and you are assigned a Big 12 crew, file an immediate protest.

Thankfully, TCU was able to crush the opposition, despite them having 14-16 players on the field.

Oklahoma is preparing themselves nicely for their move to the SEC.

And Kansas is 5-0.

There comes a time when you have to admit that your team sucks donkey dick and the season is lost. For this Spartan fan, the time has come. Three games in a row I felt about three minutes in that the game was lost. I’ll give Mel Tucker one more year on a short leash but it’s time he started to justify his contract.

Wisconsin has been off to a terrible start: they’re 2-3, and looked awful in losses to Washington State, Ohio State, and Illinois. This afternoon, they fired coach Paul Chryst, and have named defensive coordinator Jim Leonhard as interim coach for the remainder of the season.

Leonhard, who, like Chryst, is a Wisconsin alumnus, had already been rumored as a potential future head coach.

Tennessee fans taking some, um, indecent liberties with the LSU fight song. In Baton Rouge.

To the LSU fight song, the Tennessee fans chanted “Suck that Tiger dick, bitch.”

Since when has “carpetbagging” mattered in any sport?

I guess with Brian Kelly it does make sense though.

He reportedly stated that after a decade of success coaching Notre Dame, he went to LSU for “the commitment to excellence, rich traditions, and unrivaled pride and passion of LSU Football”.

I’m sure the pay raise from $2.67M a year to $9M a year didn’t factor in.

I’m betting right now he succeeds Saban at Alabama.
