Poo A&M needs to use one of their other QBs. King had 97 yards today... was throwing at the ground mostly.

Exciting Tennessee/Pitt game.  Tennessee looked a bit rough in spots, but they won in the end.  Go Vols.

I felt bad for Pitt with so many injuries suffered during the game.

Haha, A&M got beat by a school in a mountain town no one has heard of. Always good to see a Texas team lose. Go Neers!!

UT game was way too close as they are far better than Pitt. Going to have to improve before Florida...who lost to Kentucky.

Wish Bama lost. Man that 20 yard chip shot Texas missed is looking bad now.

But Texas lost, so all is well.

Nebraska now has a job opening for football head coach.

Frost isn't the good guy many folks seem to think he is, especially those from Nebraska.

Remember Lawrence Phillips? The running back that beat up his former g/f and dragged her down the steps by her hair? Frost was banging her and hid in a closet while Phillips beat that poor girl.

The coach at the time, Tom Osborne, repeatedly warned Frost to stay away from other players girlfriends.

Frost is from a small town called Wood River and broke most of the state high school passing records. He chose to go to Stanford to play for Bill Walsh for a perceived better shot at the NFL but Walsh made him a safety so Frost left Stanford and went to Nebraska where Osborne let him play quarterback. Oddly enough, he spent 6 years in the NFL (4 different teams) as a safety.

Rumors abound about his (and other coaches) antics after games at a bar in Lincoln called Gate 25, Cannabis, hookers, bar girls, and heavy bouts of drinking are all part of the rumors. Interesting tidbit, one of the owners of the bar is one of Frost's good friends and one of the folks that convinced Frost to go coach in Lincoln, Matt Davison.

There are reports that Frost's wife has left him and that he's been maintaining an apartment in Omaha.

Frost went 16-31 while head coach in Lincoln and the last 9 or 10 games in a row that were losses were by one score. An NCAA record. He didn't have a single winning season while at Nebraska.

In the end you should be thankful for those players like us who switch to try and help keep things even because our willingness to do so, helps a more selfish, I want it my way player, get to fly his latewar uber ride.

Tennessee keeps moving up.  Go, Vols!  :aok

They play Alabama and Georgia later, which will be tough.

Also, they play Kentucky, which is looking good this year so far.

Nebraska imploded.  Head coach Frost gone.  Defensive coordinator gone.

The weird thing is that they fired the head coach now instead of on October 1st.  If they had waited 2 weeks, it would have saved them $7 million.

Headscratcher for a multitude of reasons, for sure.

No idea what they are thinking. Why bring a new coach on just to get stomped by OU? What is there to lose to give him one more game? Then, you bring on the new coach for Rutgers, maybe start his tenure with a good performance and a win.

UT/Florida this weekend, game of the week I'd say. Edge Tennessee.
