First things first. The North Harrison Cougars defeated the Corydon Central Panthers tonight 42-6. The Cougars are 3-0 on the season. Go Cougars Go!
Right now I’m watching Louisville having a hard time with Georgia Tech.
Jacob Merritt for Ohio State. I am for the Hoosiers.
Tomorrow the last college football season we still recognize begins in earnest. There will still be a PAC 12 this year. USC and UCLA will still be members. So will Oregon and Washington. That all changes next year. I am still struggling to make sense of this. Word came down today that Stanford and California will join the ACC next year. Last I heard, ACC stands for Atlantic Coast Conference. See what I mean.
Let’s get to the games.
Indiana beats Ohio State…I was going to leave this one alone until I talked to Mom about it. She said she still believes in miracles. I BELIEVE.
Kentucky beats Ball State…UK is pretty darn good.
Purdue beats Fresno State…This is a daunting task for the Boilers. This will be a big win for them.
Iowa beats Utah State…Another classic 20-3 Iowa defensive gem.
Washington beats Boise State… Michael Penix begins his air assault.
USC beats Nevada…Look out for the Trojans. They may be one of the last four.
Alabama beats Middle Tennessee…Milroe at QB for the Tide is a good move.
North Carolina beats South Carolina…Drake Maye will be on fire.
Wyoming will beat Texas Tech…CBS visiting Laramie in primetime? Wow.
Illinois beats Toledo…The boys from Champaign will be ready here.
Penn State beats West Virginia…Classic matchup with a great deal of history.
Tulane beats South Alabama…The Green Wave still rising after the bowl win over USC.
BYU beats Houston…We know the Cougars will win this one.
UCLA beats Coastal Carolina…Not much of a home opener. NC Central shows up in The Rose Bowl in two weeks. Not impressed.
I have to believe this is the first time in my lifetime, if ever, that ABC, NBC, and CBS will be showing college football night games on the same night. That tells you how powerful this college football is.
I will be in Bloomington tomorrow with my good friend Adam Disque. We worked together at Medora many years ago. He is a good Hoosier.
Speaking the rights.
