UNLV tied at 31 with Idaho State in the 4th quarter, Rebels were -30 favorites coming into the game. Colandrea has looked solid, albeit against a very bad defense.

I missed the Iowa State-Kansas State game from earlier but seems like it was a good one.

Checked some of it out. Played in a monsoon and ball was dropping all over the place to start

Western Kentucky and Sam Houston has been a pretty good game, Hilltoppers up 27-24 in the 3rd quarter.

Just reminds me that I have no idea what to think of Tyson Helton as a coach. He’s had good results at WKU, five 8+ win seasons in six years there along with some really high quality passing attacks, but it always seems like their fanbase is frustrated with him. His teams tend to be kinda uneven and their offensive numbers have been on a downward trend.

This is the only thing I caught from it:

This is why we cannot export college football to the world

Wrong - this EXACTLY why we need to export this to the world. If we merge this with soccer hooligans, armed conflict around the world will take a back seat to sports and a more healthy outlet for aggression. I assume everything is alcohol driven as well, so as part of my financial planning and total reliance on LRA for investment advise - I’m assuming that exporting NCAAF will help a slowing global economy - @DFresh11 should I be long global brewing companies or should I also diversity my portfolio with investment in distillers as well? By investing, I meaning stocking up and consuming. Obviously no medical marijuana companies unless we also market it as a solution to the problem we have created. Profit both ways.

I was flipping through channels yesterday and heard Rodney McLeod doing the broadcast for the Tarleton State vs Portland State game.

Oh dang, I missed that UD is FBS now (cc @BDragon). I kinda wish they made the move while running a Tubby Raymond-style Wing-T and then instantly becoming the People’s Champ for doing so. Opening the season against the DeSean Jackson-led (yeah, that one) Delaware St team.

Yea, I only found out they made the jump because when NCAA 26 launched UD announced a campaign where anyone who built a dynasty with them and got them a nati got free season tickets for the year. No clue if anyone took them up on it.

Also of all the ex-NFL guys going to coach college ball, DeSean Jackson and Del St is the most surprising to me.

I am hoping that Eddie George and BG can lead to something special for him.

I don’t know how Morris is gonna turn out for us at QB, but at the very least I’m glad we didn’t end up with Billy Edwards Jr.

EDIT: Didn’t realize he suffered a potentially serious injury, only saw the box score. Horrible for him, hope it’s nothing long term.

Malik Washington starting as a true freshman for Maryland and looks like the real deal. Glad VT didn’t land him.

Semi-related to that, am gonna keep my eye on Khristian Martin, a backup QB for the Terps. No shot he’s getting PT there unless there’s an injury, will probably portal and we recruited him pretty hard out of HS. In-state kid.
