Here is the Big Ten’s response to the MAC saying today requesting that (the NCAA and CFP) recognize Western Michigan as the actual winner of their game vs. Michigan for purposes of their respective rankings, evaluations and selection deliberations. “The Big Ten stands by the statement released following the conclusion of the Western Michigan at Michigan game and the determination made by the replay officials. … Continue reading Notes: A Snow Day At USC
QUARTERBACK Jayden Maiava must think he’s playing a video game when facing these teams. He completed 23 of 25 passes against Fresno State. I’m waiting for him to complete is first 23 straight passes and then USC will try to compare it to when Aaron Rodgers completed his first 23 passes against No. 1-ranked USC in 2004.

Some USC professional fanboys were taking joy in Notre Dame’s slow start against Wisconsin on Monday night.

Fresno State?!?!? OK, let’s get to the game. The biggest positive was Gary Patterson got overall improvement from Week 1 to Week 2. That’s not something that happened often with D’Anton Lynn. … Continue reading My USC-Fresno State Analysis: The Good And The Bad (Yes, Bad)
OK, we have something fishy going on with USC attendance figures. USC announced Friday night the crowd for the Fresno State game was 53,014. The announced attendance for the San Jose State game was 51,144. The problem is there were way more people at last night’s game than the previous week. So last week was a gross exaggeration or this week was vast underreporting. Now … Continue reading Strange Attendance At The Coliseum
