Arctic Blast

Because Jacoby Brissett keeps the Colts relevant? What in the world...and here I thought that franchise might start making good decisions now that Ryan Grigson has been fired.

NC State had their typical lets-get-everyone-hyped-up-then-lay-and-egg game...

Former Auburn O-lineman, Cole Cubelick, is a contributor on a couple of the radio stations I listen to.  He was really high on NC State this year.  Says the may have the best D-line in the country.  How the Gamechickens took you out is beyond me.

Surely your expectations were not that high.  Carolina got beat at home in a game they were predicted to win, and I shrugged it off.  No defense again.

Auburn looked pretty good in their home opener.  But on the road at Clemson next week will reveal a lot more.  I listened to about half of the game while on the road.  XM is pretty awesome for College Football.

Saw lots of Bammers in Atlanta this afternoon getting onto mass transit to go to the game.  Unfortunately, Bama looks as good as they always do.

My expectations are never that high.  Remember the rule for NC State:

Set the line at 8-1/2 wins
Whatever way the national media goes, you go the other way



honestly, you could probably set the line down at 7-1/2 and it works, too.

So did QB Josh Rosen of UCLA just bag the Heisman and first spot in the NFL draft right out of the gate? Shades of Super Bowl 51!

Sure. Pats will just score 2-3 times on each drive. Eventually one of them will count.

Alex Smith sacked himself. Is it shown on replay? Nope.
