Utah State has fired Gary Anderson

Left Madison for Oregon State, now fired at Utah State? Quick fall.

I was 100% wrong about Herm Edwards at Arizona State. He’s getting it done.

I stand corrected. ESPN.com had it at 35-35 end of regulation...then I discovered Liberty hit a 51-yard FG with 0:01 left.

Wow...

Wow...

After Va Tech blocked a FG and returned it for a TD...

...but Tech called a TO to ice the kicker.

Hugh Freese will return to a P5 program next year.

Pac 12 After Breakfast:

Someone needs to to tell Herm Edwards that you “Play to Win the Game.”

Played pretty good D all game. Two soft zone drives and an onside kick. Ouch.

(But he’s been doing better than some thought he would there)

Only on the third week, but the whole Big ?? seems upside down, except tOSU.

Penn State: #7 in both preseason polls. Currently 0-2 and down big at home against Maryland.

Michigan: #15/16 in preseason polls. Currently 1-2 after being schooled by Indiana.

Indiana: got a handful of preseason votes. Currently 3-0 with wins over PSU and UM.

Northwestern: got 1 preseason vote from writers, 0 from coaches. Currently 3-0 (but not as tested as IU).

Oops....

He’s got a very green team.  His secondary is slow.  Didn’t recruit any speed and when you play man-to-man exclusively with slow CBs, good luck

It’s been a great day. Nothing would top it off better than a backup quarterback smoking Notre Dame.

Yes, the weather was great today.  ;)

I wouldn't mind seeing an upset. Get's a bit boring of Clemson and Alabama.

Although their depleted D got gassed.

Looks like they will have yet another #1 pick at QB though.

For all the talk about how long it takes to play the last couple minutes of a basketball game ... it took FOREVER to play the last couple mins and OT of this game.

I’d be fine with Brian Kelly never winning another football game in his life.

But I’d laugh if his team lost 72-3 to Alabama in the CFP semis again.

He's redeemed himself at Liberty.  Tennessee fans would take him in a second.

EDIT:  My guess is he's South Carolina's coach by early January.

0-2 Nebraska giving us a sense of normalcy though.

With regards to the game itself, it was a good game. The difference this time for Notre Dame was the ability to match physicality at the line of scrimmage and skill positions on both sides of the ball (and athleticism). Clemson has elite speed skill players. Kyren Williams is a finisher, and they needed a good game from Ian Book and they got it. Some of Uiagalelei's throws were big time in his situation.

That easily could have been a two TD dub for ND. A few mistakes, a bit too conservative coaching, combined with good half time Clemson adjustments especially with run defense, and Clemson almost comes back to take it.

The officiating left a lot to be desired.
