As long as it's a blowout, I don't care that much who wins. But I generally don't root for Les Miles . . . .
 



Aww its no fun if its just a blowout. The best games are always the ones that come down to the final play. And i totally agree with your Les Miles comment

I was happy to watch my Trojans pick up another W and Barkley set a school record with six touchdown passes. Thought they'd make a strong statement after the Stanford game.

I do feel bad for Colorado having a rough season - I do like the school. Hopefully, being in the Pac-12 will give them a better recruiting class and they can start rebuilding.

I'm beginning to think 'SC will take it to the Ducks. If anything, it'll be close. A 10-2 season with losses to Stanford and ASU would be awfully nice.

Erik my friend, you should enjoy this season of Trojan football.  The next few will be tough I have a feeling.
 
Im hoping LSU-Bama is decided by one score.  I want a great game.  No interest in a blowout.  
 
I wish I thought my Wildcats had a prayer in Lincoln today, but I'm expecting a very lopsided loss to the Huskers.  All the currently ranked Big Ten teams should pick up relatively easy wins today.  It's not a week of great matchups Big Ten country, like it was the last couple weeks.  Which is fine - with the SEC sporting two matchups between top ten teams, there will be no lack of entertaining football today.  KState OKState is also a very intriguing game for me.

Thanks man! That was indeed a very, very big win for us.  And I have never forgiven the Huskers for crushing us in the 2000 Alamo Bowl (which I attended), so this was very sweet for me.

Some pretty good games today.  OK St. hangs on, my Badgers end their losing streak, Stanford remains undefeated.  For all the hype for the LSU-Bama game, I almost fell asleep due to boredom

I actually thought the OKSt. -KSt. Game was much more fun than the LSU-Bama game.  But both were pretty awesome.

These earthquakes are messed up. 
 
9-6! Man, am I ever excited for the rematch in January! 
 
K-State can be a saucy little number if you let 'em. OK State did, and it almost messed a lot of stuff up. I'd still take Pokes against the Tree team and Boise. . . maybe not LSU. 
 
RB being out for the year is no good at all.

Really? I love the games where no one moves. Everyone it getting tackled really hard and the tension just builds. Some of my favorite games to watch. The score was a little boring, but I thought it was a really exciting game.

I definitely appreciated the outstanding defense that was on display.  Actually thought Bama's D played better overall, but the missed FG's sunk them.

100% agree.  I'll take a physical, hard-nosed battle of the trenches over watching 4.5 hours of bubble screens any day.  I wish there would have been a touchdown or two, but it was still an epic battle of the 2 best teams in the country.  Hopefully LSU and Alabama's success creates a renaissance of "Real" football.
