College Football Week 1

Miami should be up more. They keep shooting themselves in the foot in key situations.

ACC looking good so far. FSU handles Bama. Miami so far dominating ND. Clemson played LSU tight. Va Tech was tight with South Carolina most of the game.
 
exciting first game of season..
The fighting Irish kept fightin and almost pulled it off..
Congrats to Miami ..
They have some studs and could be playoff bound..
CJ got better and better as the game went on.. I see talent there..
The Aggies visit south bend in two weeks..should be another competitive game..
Go Irish!
 
Miami sure tried to lose that one going conservative in the 4th. Beck was in a zone and they went safe. I think they ran the ball on 2nd and 1 multiple times. That's the prefect situation to take a shot.

I won't declare the U is back yet. It would be just like them to go lose to South Florida

Maybe..
I wasn’t happy with NDs play calling either..
But they were trying to protect the freshman QB..
 
Heck of a football game. ND fought back but the Cane came through when they needed to. They will probably flipflop rankings.

Ok who are the next two opponents for Penn State?😏

First of all, regarding Nevada: That game was scheduled way back in 2017. It was to be played in 2020, but was postponed until this year because of COVID. The Wolfpack actually went to four straight bowl games from 2018 to 2021. Kind of hard to predict what sort of opponent PSU would have eight full years later, don't you think? Of course Nevada is not a powerhouse program, but they're not Kent State, either.

FIU was added just last year. Not sure why that is, but generally these out-of-conference games are scheduled much more than one year in advance, so most likely Penn State needed a replacement on fairly short notice.

Villanova is an FCS team, but they are a good second division program. This game was one of two with the Wildcats scheduled in 2018 (the other was played in 2021). Villanova makes the FCS playoffs about half the time, and has won 10 games in each of the last two seasons. They are located near Philadelphia, so they are a regional opponent. Lots of bigger programs do this.

Any other questions?
