I felt like the games today were pretty poor in terms of watchability (maybe the Clemson game) up until the VT game. Anyone else agree?

Are there even any marquee matchups today?

I consider VT vs UT to be a really big game, but other than that, no, not really.

I'm embarrassed for Virginia Tech because they had this game and absolutely gave it away.

I thought they were way too run heavy on a night where without McMillan's big run, before garbage time, they were averaging 2.5 YPC. I understand Fuente wants to run it up the middle, but Tech obviously had vastly improved success running it off the edges.

I also didn't like how they routinely kept Evans in the pocket. He was clearly doing his best work when they were rolling him out and stretching the defense horizontally. 

But more than anything, Wong needs to never play center again this season if he's going to snap the ball like that. They were all ugly and over half were off target. 

Turnovers and dumb penalties killed the Hokies on a night where they were flat out the better team. They should have won, but you don't win when you turn it over 5 times against a ranked SEC opponent.

If I had known it was on I may have taken the time to watch the Penn St/Pitt game and telling by the final score I wished I didn't miss it. At one time these 2 teams always played their final game against each and hopefully this series continues.

I was scrolling between 3 games last night(Tenn/Va Tech,Arkansas/TCU and BYU/Utah) and that last game had 2 successive targeting calls which eliminated the player both times and I thought they were fairly clean hits. The one did hit the head but the guy led with his shoulder and both players were low to the ground and the other seemed like a clean shot after a pick. Man that crowd was riled too.

Believe it or not, I'm expecting Michigan to make the College Football Playoff.  I know that anything could happen before the final rankings and the seeding of the playoff teams, but I hold out hope for the Maize and Blue; also, I'm originally from Wyandotte, Michigan, so I do have some loyalty.

North Dakota State takes down Iowa. I don't think any FBS teams are going to schedule them anymore. You might as well consoder NDSU a top 25 FBS team.

Didn't see that one coming. Surely thought the Iowa Steelers would've won.

And by the way, LOL @ FSU.
