Portland St is a good D1AA.

That said, San Jose State, during COVID peak was undefeated and BSU beat them....

... hopefully we win. I'm nervous and I can't sleep.

Well, we didn't look stellar. More like a minor planet, if that.

Eastern Michigan struggled tonight vs Eastern Kentucky.

Bugs and ucla tied at 17 late in the first half.

Remember ~10 years ago when Chip Kelly was going to revolutionize coaching football while at Oregon?

Sorry, Whinny. I just looked at the stats on the Iowa/South Dakota game. Iowa won 7 - 3. But did not score a touchdown. 1 field goal and 2 safties to get to 7 pts. Iowa punted 10 times for 479 yds. Why couldn't we play Iowa this year.

Those Dakota schools are always tough outs. ND giving Nebraska all they can handle right now.

Iowa has 6 wins since 2020 where they punted 8+ times in the game. No other FBS team has more than 2.

Punting is winning in Iowa City.

The heat is going to ratchet up on Brian Ferentz as Iowa OC after that performance.

You can't not score even one TD vs. an FCS opponent at home.

His dad the HC may have to make a tough call at some point soon.

Well, it's bad but I wouldn't say it's That bad. South Dakota State or North Dakota State -- would be on the level of "vs an upper-mid-major".

Brian Kelly has mastered failing the halftime interview. What a strange game and epic loss.

LSU almost pulled off the 'Notre Dame come from behind miracle victory.' I thought Kelly was thinking he still had the luck of the Irish with him. Watching that extra point get blocked brought him back to reality. Guess they should have gone for two.

He inherited a real mess from Orgeron.

Going to take some time.

If they don't get a FG and PAT blocked LSU might be 1-0.

Notre Dame fan I know laughed because Kelly likes to put an ace recruiter in as special teams coach so they're usually trash.
