Finally sitting down to watch my Frogs play their 9:30 central time kickoff from California with a --checks notes-- ACC team.

ACC After Dark!

Also, it seems a little chippy early. Already feels like the SMU-Nevada game from last week. Is there something about the west coast that makes Metroplex teams lose their cool?

If by "chippy," you mean the Frogs are playing stupid machoball, then yes.

If I had a nickle for every strange interception off a ricochet that I saw today, I'd have two nickles. Which isn't alot, but it's odd that it happened twice

There was also a crazy one in the CU-NDSU game yesterday.

TCU playing like ass, but the 300-pound DT getting the INT off the carrom is pretty darn fun.

Western Michigan @ Wisconsin

ToasterOverlord@fanaticus.social · 2 pts · 2y

Western just pulled off a sweet fake FG to take the lead in the 4th! Jump around indeed

I reckon Wisconsin will keep a pretty closed playbook to not give Bama anything. Would be interesting if WMU can put them on upset alert

g0d0fm15ch13f@lemmy.world · 1 pts · 2y

WMU with takes the lead at the beginning of the 4th

Temple @ OU

g0d0fm15ch13f@lemmy.world · 2 pts · 2y

We know for a fact that tossing a shoe 20 yards down the field is a penalty, come on refs

That OL looked pretty average against a bottom-tier team (w/o their best defensive player). Could be a rough season for Oklahoma, even with so much talent in all of the other places.

g0d0fm15ch13f@lemmy.world · 1 pts · 2y

Absolutely incredible pick

Man if espn put half as much money into their actual production as they put into acquiring rights they would have far and away an actual production unit.

Does Oklahoma have an actual hand sign or do they exclusively throw the horns down?

ToasterOverlord@fanaticus.social · 3 pts · 2y

The real question is does the band know how to play anything other than boomer sooner

Lehigh @ Army

g0d0fm15ch13f@lemmy.world · 1 pts · 2y

Man Army took no time to celebrate those new NC banners

Just like last year when they inadvertently set Coach Prime hype into overdrive, sloppy play from TCU is making a school to the west look better than they are. If Sonny doesn't have a good solid year of 7-9 wins, I think the goodwill of the CFP run will be used up and his seat will get pretty warm. Any SMU success will also play into this.

Point still stands, though managing not to lose does blunt the impact just a bit, lol.

Anybody else watching this early on their Friday?

orangeNgreen@lemmy.world · 2 pts · 2y

I wasn’t able to catch much football today. But looking for to tomorrow’s games!

Checking in now! Had internet issues so missed kickoff for these games. Can't stomach watching ou so watching FAU @ Michigan State. In just the first minute there was a somewhat controversial call resulting in an INT for FAU so could be entertaining

Yeah I've got to watch since they're our first SEC game in what I predict will be a trendsetting game for our season. But yeah... don't watch... RRS should be solid this year at least
