Watching Penn St. right now. Hackenburg looks real good. I'm not sure if he will be entering the next draft, but if so I would love for Denver to draft this guy - if he's available with the 32nd pick. :D
Texans are following him closely.

What's really amazing is how bad the defences are nowadays in the power conferences. There's a bad trend going on these days. Most of the top 20 teams have serious problems stopping anybody anymore. Where are all the qualified defensive coaches in college football? The offensive line guys coming out aren't being taught technique and the defensive players can't tackle. It's actually really pitiful getting these guys prepared for the NFL . Scary. Guys are getting bigger,stronger and faster but are lost when it comes to basic fundamentals and learning how to play the position the way they used to be in the past. Sad. 80's baby boomers are killing this country. Lazy and clueless.

The Buffs actually dominated UCLA - and still lost - more than 110 offensive plays run and 500 plus yards on offense - both sad and encouraging.

Who are "80's boomers? Aren't boomers those born from 1946-1962?
Heard the term used many times. I believe it is based on the birth or explosion of the computer/ internet technology. Least that's my understanding.

didn't see the whole thing, but caught part of a piece on espn about how former Bronco Ray Crockett has been involved in the life of Baylor WR Corey Coleman. Coleman is an absolute beast. Would love for him to become a Bronco. Also really like Crockett.

The Missouri Football team fired the University President - by simply threatening to boycott one game. It's not going to end there - the power is out of the box.

Buffs - threatened to win against SC. Sefo is out for the season. Cade Aspey the backup throws a very nice ball, but he needs an Oline to keep people off of him more than Sefo did.

Buffs - out of the bowl picture.

Buffs suck.

Feel bad for MO AD Mac Rhoades. He is a good man in unfortunate circumstances.

I actually think they made good strides this yr compared to the last million yrs ( seems like ). We're more competitive vs the stronger teams at least. If the recruiting keeps getting a little better and they can find some diamonds in the ruff or start snagging some 4 star guys in the next few yrs, they can hopefully challenge in what I think is a mediocre Pac 12. Aside from Stanford ( I think Wash. St is a tad underrated also) the rest of that conference would get their butts kicked in a bowl game vs the Ivy league runner-up. ;). Ps. Go Air Force! Playing some good football lately. The qb ( Roberts ) actually threw for around 271 yds today!. Almost unheard of for a Falcon qb in that run heavy offense. First place for the moment. Boise plays later.

I support Coach Mac - I love his approach to life and football. No one works harder to find and does find diamonds in the rough.

My criticism this year - is Sefo got too fixed against errors - and regressed. The offense couldn't make up its mind - what it was - all season - and they had some bad play calling as well on offense. The most of all - though - was the lack of on field discipline to prevent stupid errors or periods of each game where there was a loss of focus.

My general criticism of Coach Mac is correctable - he gets his teams too jacked up emotionally to play within themselves - then he has to settle them down in the game - and the emotional tenor of the play on the field then becomes like a train - starting and stopping. The good thing is - you can see he really gets those kids ready to run through walls for him and the program. I'm looking for him to get it right - once they start winning - it will go for some time.

Great,great meaningful games on today. Love it! Glad I don't live in Midwest like some of you. Pretty ugly weather in some games. 68 here in No. Cal :). Couple notes..Fournette looks like he could go from Heisman winner to undrafted if he keeps it up. Don't like to brag but I'm going to...in the ESPN " College football challenge " I'm in tie for 7th place out of group of over 920 people!. Fun free game and it helps watching and learning about players/potential draft picks for your nfl team.

Thanks Hutch I will. I did get burned in Wisconsin game when they had what looked to me like game winner but td got overruled. Total BS IMO. But hanging in there with 3 gms left on the slat. Oh, Mich. St hurt me too. :(

I'm impressed - with that - and your utility with time.
