College Football Morning QuickThoughts Week 8

Wake Forest 24, Duke 23 – So which is the real Wake? The one that whipped Florida St. or the one that played this game and last week against Virginia Tech?

Eastern Michigan 14, Western Michigan 10 – Let it be noted that a recovery from 2-22 in the first two years is possible. Ron English has his team at 5 wins for the first time in a long time.

Purdue 21, Illinois 14 – Ron Zook strikes again.

Arkansas 29, Ole Miss 24 – Arkansas was sleeping and Houston Nutt pulled his annual upset... Oh, what? Houston Nutt's team still lost in the annual upset game. He's doomed...

Kansas St. 59, Kansas 21 – There is room for only one good team in the state of Kansas. Not enough talent to support two teams at a high level there. Note that Kansas st. is good, meaning Kansas can't possibly be good at the same time.

Oklahoma St. 45, Missouri 24 – Tigers shot themselves in the foot over and over and over again. They really might be the new Clemson. Those traits will really get them killed in the SEC.

Clemson 59, North Carolina 38 – It appears the Clemson offense is completely unstoppable. Too bad they play in the ACC, putting them at the end of the pecking order for the National Championship game and sending them to the Orange Bowl to play the Big East's annual piece of garbage.

Cincinnati 37, South Florida 34 – Speaking of the annual Big East piece of garbage, it now appears that Cincinnati is the front runner for that honor. Remember that they were blown out by the 8th best team in the SEC.

Weeknight Games

Arizona 48, UCLA 12 – Neuheisel is lucky that he gets to coach next week after this. I believe he now needs to win out to overcome the embarrassment of this debacle. And that won't be happening with the suspensions. As for Arizona, nice effort after the head coach got fired.

UAB 26, UCF 24 – Didn't see the game, but that doesn't matter. Losing to UAB is just awful for UCF. How long until the crazies down there start trying to fire George O'Leary again?

Syracuse 49, West Virginia 23 – Whiskey Tango Foxtrot? What the heck was that West Virginia? Getting shut down by Syracuse is not terrible. Giving up 49 points to them is .

Louisville 16, Rutgers 14 – And we have more evidence that the Big East is headed for another champion like UConn last year.
