Didn't get to watch much football. Just watched all the sports reports. What a whacky weekend. Seems like it was either a blow out or came down to the last play all across the nation. Tons of close games and bizarre finishes. Not sure I've seen more replays of fans in shock. 🤣

@Dustinb80 should be relieved ND finally got a win. Still tried to let them have a chance all the way down to the last play? Crazy stuff.

Sevyn Banks had one of the more serious injuries I've seen in football. I have t heard an update since they took him off the field. Looked like a neck injury or something. Stadium was silent for a while. Bad situation for everyone.

My flashes just gave @bowhunter1023 and @5Cent’s Ohio house cats an ass whoppin
HA! Hate to break it to you, but I only attended 1 game in 4 years, 2 in my life, so it's only nominal bragging rights. I'm sure my wife will love it though being a Golden Flash herself.

You know the first thing a Bobcat does after a night on Court Street? Unzips and let's the golden flash flow 😂

Haven't seen all the games, but have caught a good chunk of Alabama and Texas A&M. Texas isn't giving up. Bama has had every chance to put them away. Penalties have been gifts to Bama a few times. And naturally, Bama has gotten away with plenty. I'd love to see them go down.

Georgia won but it didn't look like a dominate win. They have eeked out a few now.

Pretty exciting, yet low scoring (yawn), game where Illinois snuck by Iowa. I caught the end. 9-6 victory. Not sure if one of them scored a TD but no extra point or if it was all field goals. Parts of it I saw looked like a fight. Illinois was something like 14/19 for 74 passing yards. Lol

Texas A&M blew that game! Receiver didn’t run deep enough and QB struggled throwing more accurate passes. Hell, had that receiver caught that last pass it woulda been short. None of the receivers ran great routes on the last few plays, just ran out and turned around with 1-2 guys standing next to them. Jimbo choked costing team to use up TO’s early as well. Best team won but dodged a bullet.

How many bullets do Bama and Georgia need to dodge before they drop in the rankings? To be fair, the Buckeyes played ND early and haven't had many (maybe no?) challenges since. Iowa defense 'might' be a test. PSU and UM will be challenges but not sure enough to know if we have what it takes or not. UM is undefeated but they have dodged some bullets too. They couldn't put Indiana away until the fourth quarter today. We played everyone in the fourth quarter today. I think I saw the tuba player and one of the female cheerleaders line up in one of those series. Lol

For that to happen a team would need to move up. One could make a strong argument it shouldn't be a team that let 2-4 Michigan State hang 20 points on them, or 2-4 Arkansas state put up 12, or Toledo put up 21. Ga hasn't faired much better letting teams like kent state and Missouri hang 20+ on them. Then Michigan with Iowa at 14 and Maryland putting up 27. I'm not saying Alabama has faired any better against the likes of A&M and Texas lately but I think it's still in a wait and see pattern. Short of a loss in the top 6 I don't see any movement happening. As for Bama tonight. Just sloppy football. Anytime you have to start a redshirt freshman and commit 4 turnovers in a game you're lucky to get out with your shirt. Seat of their pants for sure.
