Marshall must be happy as ECaro trails by 3 scores in the fourth quarter vs. Temple.

C'mon LaMonroe - down one score to aggie in the fourth quarter.

Ags were 31.5 favorites.

Would love to see a Middle Tenn win over BYU today...would be a good one for the conference.

And horrible ODU is only a 7 1/2 point road underdog to an SEC team today. How embarrassing to be a Vanderbilt fan but, yet, they are right where we would love to be.

ECU scores to make it 20-10 with a couple minutes left..

Great for Louisiana-Monroe to play with A&M for all 4 quarters. We should aspire to be like them.

Bad day for the AAC prestige...ECU loses to Temple and UCF is down 16 to UConn with 7:30 to go.

This was really more about A&M being without their QB. Allen did not perform well, and ULM has not had a good season.

Twice ULM elected to take chip shot FG's inside the A&M 10 yard line in the 4th Q...

Allen did not perform well, but Hill had all but lost his job based on his past 3 weeks of stinking up the joint. According to most reports on ESPN this past week, Sumlin was giving both QB equal first team reps during practices this week.

According to the ESPN crawl, Hill was suspended for two games for violating team and athletic dept rules.

Yes, but before the suspension was announced yesterday, Hill and Allen were sharing first team reps this week for the first time since preseason practices.

TCU hits FG at end, beats W. Virginia 31-30

WVU tried to run down the clock with running plays, had to punt, and then gave up a long pass to let TCU get in FG range. Bad time management.

WVU tried to run down the clock with running plays, had to punt, and then gave up a long pass to let TCU get in FG range. Bad time management.

TCU took over for their winning drive with 2:07 left, meaning that WV needed at least one first down, most likely two because TCU could stop the clock at least twice, to run out the clock. With the ball near midfield, they should have still been running their full offense and trying to make first downs. Third and nine from their own 44 with 2:20 or so left was clearly a down where risking a pass was justified. Of course on third down on the previous possession they had attempted a pass, gotten sacked, and fumbled (did recover own fumble). I think second and long on both possessions would have been strong potential passing downs for me. Couple of first downs on either of those possessions probably wins it for TCU. Give your offense a chance to win it before giving your defense a chance to win it.

Of course, the biggest error was the defensive breakdown that allowed the 40 yard pass play. Holgorsen is a very bright offensive mind but I don't think he pays nearly enough attention to defense. It bit him today. Of all the Air Raid guys, I think Leach probably pays the most attention to defense.

LaTech beat WKU 59-10, if Rice can beat Marshall that last game of the season in Ruston will be a big one

In this scenario, assuming Marshall wins their other games, the CUSA championship game is at Marshall, if La Tech wins, but at Rice if Rice wins out, as Rice would have the head to head tiebreaker.

Ole Miss fumbles twice near the Auburn goal line in the 4th quarter ... loses 35-31.

Auburn has 13 penalies for 145 yards.
