Here come the hurricane postponements/cancellations.

 

Carolina vs UCF is postponed with hopes of playing at a later date.

Coastal Carolina's game against Campbell is being played tomorrow.

Liberty's game against Norfolk State will be played Dec. 1, or canceled if Norfolk makes the FCS playoffs.

BC/Wake Forest kickoff on Thursday will be at 5:30 p.m., not 7:30.

West Virginia vs NC State is canceled. (Apparently the policy has changed since 2 years ago and you can cancel NC State home games during a hurricane. Huh.)

Virginia vs Ohio will be played in Nashville at Vanderbilt's stadium instead of Charlottesville.

East Carolina vs Virginia Tech not being played this weekend.

Charlotte vs Old Dominion moved to 4 p.m. Thursday.

Southern Miss vs App State has been postponed with hopes of a make-up.

Clemson vs Georgia Southern has been moved up from 3:30 p.m. to noon Saturday.

Marshall vs South Carolina canceled, no known plans to reschedule.

Georgia vs MTSU bumped from 7 p.m. to noon.

 

Several TV listings have been tweaked as well.

Another bad week for the Big 10 with home losses to Troy and BYU as well as Kansas winning big.

Wisconsin's loss pretty much means that only a Big Ten East team will make the playoffs. Wisconsin's schedule is brutal (a lot of road games against top conference teams)

They're basically down to Ohio State and Penn State. I don't see any possible way Michigan beats OSU and that's their only way in.

 

None of it matters because Alabama is an unstoppable engine of death as long as Tua is there.

IU finally beat Ball State for the first time in ages!

2nd time in a row, actually. Brutal performance by the alma mater. Great first drive that they couldn't finish and then it was a bloodbath from there. IU looked really good.

Oh, yeah I forgot we broke that streak already. lol

 

Feeling optimistic we can go bowling again this year.

I should have added Temple and Akron to the list.

Would love to get the W next weekend. Michigan St. doesn't look very good so far, despite being top 25. Squeaked by Utah St, lost to Arizona St, who just lost to San Diego St.

 

But should be able to beat any team that gets their ass kicked by Kansas (Rutgers). A win next weekend would put us at 5-0 going into the Ohio St, Iowa, Penn St gauntlet.

 

Then would have to worry about getting at least 1 of Minnesota, Maryland and Purdue. Would love to get 8 wins this year somehow.

Bama will moonwalk to another national title.
