Oktoberfest.......Weekend update...& More....


Wow..........is it October already? What a weekend of upsets in major college football. We had a feeling about this Friday night, when West Virginia fell to South Florida. Makes Auburn's loss to the Bulls not all that much of an upset. Which brings us to a sensational Saturday of "Davids slaying Goliaths". Florida...........gone! Oklahoma......gone! Texas........gone! Clemson........gone! Rutgers...........gone! Notable struggles included USC squeaking by an improved Husky squad; Wisconsin barely beating Michigan State; and Va Tech narrowly defeating North Carolina. The most entertaining game was Cal-Oregon. The 'bears snapped a 7 game losing streak at Autzen Stadium in Eugene. If any conference has a chance to produce an undefeated team, the Pac-10 just might. There is no conference title game, and with some breaks, either USC or Cal could go through unscathed. We're still not sold on Kentucky. But the next few weeks could make us buyers. Notre Dame..........can you say 0-8? Could get just that bad.

Obscure stats of Saturday.........

LSU only led Tulane (yes that Tulane) 10-9 at halftime.
Against Ole Miss, Georgia had the single most yards rushing (328) of Mark Richt's reign.

Colorado's Kevin Eberhart's game winning field goal over Oklahoma was a career best 45 yards.

USC out gained Washington 460-190.....But tried to even things up with 16 penalties resulting in 161 yards.
