Top team in the country needed a stop on a 2 point conversion to get a win over the powerhouse football program UNC.

Worst night ever. Get me to 9pm on FS1 for WSU/Utah.

UNC has two decent wins this year....Northwestern....lost to bad Stanford team, managed to beat UNLV.  But ok.  I guess many weeks from now we will find out since they play no one.

Lol. I can only imagine what you would say if it was UW barely squeaking by powerhouse UNC. Appalachian State is a very impressive program.

As one of the ESPN talking mouths said last night, they wouldn't put Clemson in the top 6 right now through 4 games.

Many were saying that on Sirius XM. Copycat world in saying things. Winning a close game on the road as a #1team, now many are saying Clemson is not a top 5 team. Ya right.

So who is?

Not Wisconsin. Not Clemson. GA barely beat what you'll say is an overrated Notre Dame team while at home so not GA.

Who's your top 6? Or 8?

Some were saying it a few weeks ago.  Their QB has looked rather pedestrian.  Last year they started out slow and built up, maybe that is what happens this year.

Meanwhile, the joke of a schedule for Becky continues for weeks.

And Ohio State 2 weeks after that.  But to Chicos Ohio State is a cupcake.  So that top 6, or 8...who's in it?  He won't say.

No. 24 SMU is ranked for the first time since the program received the so-called death penalty for NCAA rules violations in 1987 and did not compete for two seasons.

I said weeks, did I not?  Michigan State...LOL...my Hoosiers gave them fits yesterday.  OSU will be first test of the year.  Looking forward to it.

Penn St?! Their schedule is even more cupcakey than UW so far. They snuck by a mediocre Pitt team at home who has been awful other than that miracle against UCF.

Putting them above Auburn, especially after last night, is hilarious.

Oregon played better than Auburn that entire game.  Should not have lost to Auburn.  I would not put Auburn ahead of Penn State.

PSU's schedule has been soft.  Pitt is a big rivalry, it was a road game, PSU won.  They have rolled everyone else.  Wisconsin looked pedestrian yesterday against a team worse than Pitt, in my opinion.

But they beat a team much better than Pitt last week. And Auburn also won at A&M.

Nothing screams October football like Uw-Madison extension and Kent State.  If only Keith Jackson we're still alive to get this plum assignment.  ;)

I mean, 3 of their next 4 are against teams that are currently ranked. They've already beaten the Number 11 team at the time.

Their non-conference schedule is incredibly soft.
