Games of Interest - Week 2

Boazy 54 UTEP 13

At one point early in the 2nd qtr, BSU led 31-6 and had only 3:30 time of possession, the other 16:30, at that point, belonged to UTEP. Anyway, good ole CUSA settling in as the worst FBS conference in the nation.

Coastal Carolina 49 Kansas 22

The first time I saw CC's QB play was against Kansas in the opening game last year. Grayson McCall. I said, and posted on several boards, "that kid is really, really good." He is. It's also amazing that in their 6th season in FBS Coastal has arrived, ranked 17th, another P5 win, albeit just lowly Kansas, and they have a football program. Programs can achieve a lot when their head coach is NOT named Skippy Holtz.

UTEP isn't the benchmark to judge C-USA by.

Much more concerned that WKU is falling apart against Army, now down 14-0 with two quick scores allowed to start the 2nd in what was supposed to be a close one.

Finally the Tops hit a long one to close it to 14-7 with 10:40 left in the half.

Army was a TD favorite right?

A little less some places. WKU will be lucky to keep the margin under 21 because its D can't make a stop.

Army's O is killing WKU. Holding onto the ball with Time of Possession and currently have scored on 4 straight drives.

[dawg80]

Make that 5 straight drives...

[FriscoDawg]

Amazing what just one defensive stop can do. Tops close it to 35-28 with 4:59 left.

[FriscoDawg]

Tops cover but lose 38-35.

Oregon very impressive in a win at Ohio State even with several defensive starters out.

5 defensive starters out…very impressive

UAB getting expectedly manhandled by #2 Georgia. UAB only wins in CUSA because the league officiating favors them.

FAU 24 Georgia Southern 6 4:34 3rd

Yup. Bad beatdown.

A&M losing to Colorado….you love to see it

[dawg80]

Notre Dame 32 Toledo 29

Turnovers hurt ND, but truthfully the Rockets had success on offense. ND is the worst 2-0 Top 10 team...thus far. Not very impressive.

UGA clubbing UAB 49-0...

I am surprised by this score, thought UAB would make it respectable, at least some! Nope.
