Week 3 is here. Looks like LSU - Auburn is the biggest game this week. Too bad I’ll miss most of it.

But making Miami loss to LSU a little less bad. Still a lot of football to be played - only second Q.

LSU D looks good.

Edit: Didn’t take long for Auburn to take over end of first half.

Lol. Haters and doubters keeps on talking. All I know is LSU is the only team in the country with 2 top 10 wins. They don't look pretty doing it, but defense wins championships and the QB doesn't make mistakes.

My prediction is holding. LSU in the CFP

Yeah...hype trains have derailed. FSU will have no more than. 5 wins this year based on this current pace and Nebraska will need to schedule someone in last week to be bowl eligible.

Nebraska is looking at a 0-5 start. It's not getting easier.

I would be so grateful for 5. Really think it will be 3 though. Honestly don't know how the team imploded so badly considering it's a good mix of 4 and 5 stars out there. This situation is not "growing pains". We are technically rebuilding but the overall recruits have been quite good the past few years so the talent is there it's just not being utilized. Surely the culture has changed once Taggart got in but I really thought it was going to be for the better. Bringing the team closer, holding people accountable, up tempo, high scoring offense, etc but it's been a total abomination. I just don't get how awful our O-line is. The guys don't even care to block for QB in the slightest bit. Zero effort, zero technique and zero will. Think St. Thomas Aquinas can beat FSU at this point. My poor Noles

Yes, it is a little bit of a head scratcher, especially the O-Line. However, 4- and 5-stars don't matter once they get to school if they don't develop and perform. Miami has had numerous highly regarded recruits fizzle into nothing over the years. Chris Walsh, Kyle Wright, Jack Allison, Lance Leggett, Sam Bruce and Aldaruius Johnson, to name a few just at QB and WR. Meanwhile, Ed Reed was a 2-or 3-star...

No doubt getting and developing a bunch of these highly rated guys helps sustain success on average, but get a batch where a number flop, get injured, get in trouble, etc., combined with early departures of the best players to the NFL, and it can really set things back. The ability to consistently identify, recruit and develop talented players with the drive to succeed is what really sets apart the successful programs. Its hard to do that for sustained periods of time - and FSU has had a great run up until recently.

Agreed. I just don't understand how it turned so quickly for the worst. I can understand mediocrity (6-6, 7-5). There's a transitional period but shouldn't fall this far behind. It's been 52 years since we lost to Syracuse. We've had 36 years of consecutive bowl games and 41 consecutive winning seasons. It's basically an all time low in 40+ years which is unacceptable to most. Some of the Nole Nation want Coach T fired already...several Go Fund Me accounts active to raise money to buy out his contract lol. Never would've saw this disaster coming.

Big 10 took a hit last week. 7 schools went down including some ugly losses. Some media members quickly jumped of the bandwagon.

Old Dominion...really. They were 29 point underdogs.

Biggest upset over an ACC team in 40 seasons.

Pretty bad week for the ACC overall. Hard to believe VT is still ranked in coaches poll after that loss.

Anyone else other than me think the whole Kelly Bryant thing is going to blow up in Clemson's face? They are 1 play away from playing their spring practice 3rd string QB. Dabo couldn't do anything about it but at least he took the high road, unlike Mike Gundy.

Also, since college football free agency period officially starts with this weekend's games, it'll be interesting to see if Jalen Hurts plays.

Yes, I think there is a good chance it blows up on them. Injury obviously, but even as good as Lawrence is / will be, he can have a game with growing pains with no one to really step in. Bryant got them to the CFP last year. It's not like they are replacing Malik Rosier...

Anyone have an upset pick of the week?
