- Terry Foster (Detroit News)
Good…Weak Forest pounded Ole Piss in Oxford and is now 4-0. The Deacons plays I-AA Liberty next week for the chance to go 5-0 for the first time in 19 years.
Bad…Whoever made the decision to fire David Cutcliffe at Ole Piss needs to get fired himself. The Rebs are just plain awful.
Good…After getting smacked by USC, the Hogs have won three in a row.
Bad…Bama. Missed 3 FG’s and an XP to lose in overtime 24-23.
Good…Georgia is still undefeated.
Bad…The Dawgs nearly lost to a terrible Colorado team in Athens. Richt better get that offense in gear before playing UT and the Gators.
Good…NC State and Washington. Huge wins for both teams.
Bad…Boston College and UCLA. Just when you think these teams are ready to move into the upper echelon, they go on the road and poop in their pants.
Good…The old College Gameday.
Bad…The new College Gameday. Too long, too bloated, too much fluff. I don’t even watch any more.
Good…Senior quarterbacks.
Bad…Stupid fans hyping true freshman QB’s. I hear this crap every season about how stud freshman (insert name here) may get the starting gig. If you have a true freshman starting at QB, you are in for a frustrating season. Playing QB is the toughest job on the field. To go from high school to immediately staring at a major division I program is just too big a leap for most guys. Mustain (Arkansas), Williams (Illinois) and Stafford (Georgia) combined to go 24-of-70 (34 percent), 334 yards (111 per game), 2 TD and 6 INT this Saturday.
The Best…The Slow Work Week. We’ve all had them and we must say thank-ya when they come along.
The Worst…The Choke Job, starring The Less than Mighty Michigan State Spartans. MSU gave up 19 points in the last 9 minutes of the 4th quarter to go down at home 37-40 to Notre Shame. JL Smith may have lost his job and the team with that debacle. Along those same lines, I must admit, I was wrong about Smith. I was convinced he would do well at MSU and maybe contend for a few Big Ten titles. But I realize that the Spartans need a maniacal hard ass in the mold of Nick Saban. It almost seems ingrained in the Spartan psyche that good fortune comes with a catch. Loss of focus is expected and blown games are the norm. Michigan State can compete, but it will take a special guy to run the show.
