National Roundup - Week 2

A few thoughts and links from around the college football world.

*Georgia got a great win at home over South Carolina. The defense isn't much to talk about but the offense is nasty. LSU v. Georgia on the 28th of September should be epic.

*Michigan looked solid against a Notre Dame team that is coming back to earth after last year's run. UM may be favored in EVERY game the rest of the year. Look out!

*The train wreck that is Texas football crashed off the tracks in Provo, Utah. BYU ran for 550 yards beating the Longhorns 41-20. No way, no how should a team as talented as Texas get blown away like that. In Texas' 2010 and 2011 classes alone there were 3 five star players and 34 four star players. The coaches simply are not getting it done.

*Lame Kiffin may be one of the biggest frauds college football has ever seen. (I'm not counting Manti Tao's fake girlfriend.) He has never won anything, he's never built anything, yet he has been the head coach of the Oakland Raiders, Tennessee Vols and USC Trojans. But as all Ponzi schemes eventually unravel, so too is the farce that is Lane Kiffin coming to an end. I think a 6-6 final record awaits USC and a new coach at the end of the season.

*Curious to see how the dirty business at Oklahoma State plays out. Miles is going to have to deal with dirt headed his way. (Click here for the Sports Illustrated article)

I've got all sorts of changes in my BCS Bowls. The knee injury to Braxton Miller at Ohio State could be devastating to the Buckeyes' title hopes. Running QB's have to be able to run to be effective. (Duh!)
