LSU just scored late against Arizona St to go up. Great comeback in the 4th. Good for them. Must've been an emotional game for those guys. JeMarcus Russell was PUMPED when he threw the winning TD. The people at Tiger Stadium seemed to be able to forget their problems for one night. Sports may be trivial but they can provide a nice distraction, too. I still remember the first Mets game after 9/11 it just feels good to see something you expect that reminds you that things could return to "normal" at some point.

Goes to show how good OU is when they beat Tulsa by 16 and the team they lost to (TCU) lost to SMU :laugh:

Overall, I am not shocked by any of the results. If I had to pick a game, I would pick Iowa losing to Iowa St. as the biggest upset.

Go Michigan! </sarcasm> :rofl:

I love picking on BroChaos

How does that show how good OU is? They were up 2 late in the 4th. Adrian Peterson scored with about 3 minutes left. Their final touchdown was in the last minute on an INT returned for a TD.

It was a good weekend of tough college football.

Several upsets:

Iowa State over Iowa

Michigans loss to Notre Dame

SMU beats TCU (which beat Oklahoma the week prior)

and a few almost upsets.

Georgia squeeking by South Carolina

LSU barely wins over Arizona State (pulls one out in the last 2 minutes)

Texas struggles past Ohio State

By the spread line the Tigers actually WERE underdogs. I don't think they should have been but I guess the change of venue was enough for the oddsmakers.

LSU was the "home" team though they ended up playing in Tempe, Arizona. That's good enough to change the odds around, if you ask me.

I am glad college football is back, though. I've gone through 3 seasons of NCAA 2006 just to get me pumped up for this season.

Go Nebraska! :D

Wow TCU just broke Utah's 18(?) game winning streak. Maybe last week was the fluke game lol. Wins over OU and Utah. Not too shabby. Of course that loss to SMU will kill them anyway.

I guess we shall find out in the coming weeks whether they are the real deal or not.

    • Valve finally confirms Steam Machine prices, starts at $1049 for 512GB option

      By matthiew · Posted

      Huh? You're delusional calling the Steam Deck dead. It is so successful that it has sold out multiple times. Even after the price hike this year it sold out again with 24 hours of being back in stock. The demand is real and has not died down even after four years.
