Coach DeBoer should win coach of the year. The way he brings his team back game after game. Never loses his cool. Always in Control. 😁

I miss Lee Corso. I mean the coherent Lee Corso who said .... "Not So Fast My Friend"

Nittany Lion defense hasn't been challenged so far this year. All points against today were results of bad penalties and backup defense. I'm still not sold on their running game by committee. Nobody seems to have that burst or shift ability from traffic.

Huh? Every RB not named Carson Hansen has burst and shift ability. They ran for over 300 today. And they have a passing game. Agree the defense hasn’t been tested, but they will and they’ll be fine.

I’m not sure what people expect out of this team. They are doing what they should be doing. They are whipping the teams they should whip. It’s like people are disappointed they aren’t terrible, like everyone is waiting for them to lose so they can say “I told you….” It’s ridiculous. You should expect turbulence this season. The 2026 recruiting class was like three people. Next season is where you should have high expectations.

I'm just saying there is not a Singleton or Allen on this roster. That's all. They are fine against Buffalo but I'm not seeing a guy with a second gear who could grind against a USC or Michigan (I hope I am wrong). That's not ridiculous, just an observation. I'm extremely happy with the way they have played compared to Franklin. I'm happy they have some beef on the DL and happy to see throwing into the middle of the field. One critique doesn't mean I'm a hater.
 
Not a big SEC fan. So answer me this ... is it me or does Kiffin and his teams come up short in big games more often than not?

OK, game over. time to move on to LSU/Ol' Miss

That’s the game I have on also, kind-a flipping between it and the ND game.




Salute the nation
 
Kiffin deserves to lose tonight after what he did to ole miss. Long way to go though. We'll see if karma is truly a *****.

What a huge downgrade to go from coaching Chambliss at Ole Miss to Leavitt at LSU...though that last play was absolutely insane.
 
Knock,..Knock,..Knock on Heaven’s door……….

LSU cheer leader whispering in my ear .




Salute the nation
 
Bama 50-36 final

Leavitt to Beaver made an incredible play ....may have a game afterall lsu vs ole miss
 
It will be interesting to see if Ole Miss runs out of gas. Sometimes when teams come out with so much emotion, it burns them out later.

They played a lot of guys in the first 3 weeks. They're still seeing what they have. It makes sense that Hansen is RB1 early. He knows the offense best and likely is the best pass blocker in practice. He has the least juice of the 3. I hope Peoples or Martin continue to improve and take the job.

I like the direction of the team. Better schemes on offense and defense. They should be able to recruit better WRs now that they can show on the filed that they'll actually use them.

too bad he's only 5'11. Most teams won't even consider him in Rd 1. Brees is an outlier. Kyler Murray has trouble with the middle of the field because he can't see it.

And he's old...a bad combination even for someone that good.

I'm back...whew!!!

Trinidad is my QB candidate, said it from last year...

If Chambliss was 3 inches taller and 2-3 years younger, he'd easily be the No. 1 pick and there'd be a mile-wide gap between QB1 and QB2.
