    This a weak year for CFB. Very few compelling games so far and we're 9 weeks in. Obviously the late season games will be good, but overall, pretty meh year so far.

    Last week was supposed to be weak but it turned out stellar.

    Watching Clemson, UH along with ND/Temple fits the bill for me.

    Will be interesting to see how Michigan rebounds.

    There are probably 5 or 6 teams from 2014 that would beat the 2nd best team this year.

    Boykin is amazing. Incredible ability to extend plays and complete acrobatic throws.... That side arm touchdown throw. :eek:

    Exactly. It is undoubtably a down year.

    He's stretching to hit 6'1 on a good day. Not that it should really matter, I just wish he was 4 inches taller.

    That first down was flat out ridiculous.

    Houdini out there on the field...

    Amazing to think he was playing WR a couple of years ago.

    Boykin's a damn good player. I can't tell if TCU is all that good given how weak the Big 12 is and they've had some close games, but Boykin will give them a chance anytime they play.

    Their offense can chew up anyone, just ask Ol Miss.

    Probably too many injuries/etc on defense to stop Baylor or Bama or whoever, but you never know.

    Ducks & Devils in 3OT. And the Ducks just won(intercepted ASU). 61-55 FINAL.

    Ducks 3rd OT score: They called it a TD, reviewed it, call stood.

    I'd love to see either of those 2 against an Ohio St or Bama or LSU type team. I think Baylor has the interior defense to stand up to them, I don't know that TCU does anymore. Both of those teams can score on anybody, it just comes down to stopping the run on defense.

    I thought I was the only one here who stayed up and watched to the end.

    Bralon's foot was clearly out IMO.

    I started watching in the late 4th , crazy ending. But Ducks D can't stop Cal or Stanford.
