2025 College Football Thread: FSU loses to Stanford in battle of academic powers (15 Viewers)

[Sparky Polastri]

Clearly the Allar hype was real. I was wrong.

 

[The Longtime Lurker]

Cupcake match-up just what the doctor ordered for Arch. A little boost in confidence can't hurt going forward.

 

[Osaurus]

J’Mari Taylor is some kind of running back. Wow.

 

[Capella]

They’re playing a team with a name of the local school on a Friday night ABC show but FSU has scored touchdowns on all 9 possessions today. They lost to one of these teams a few years ago (and uhhhhh just went 2-10) so I think every fsu fan will I’ll be a little tepid going in.

 

[Sparky Polastri]

J’Mari Taylor is some kind of running back. Wow.

Appears they have decided to just stop playing defense in this game

 

[General Malaise]

I know Oklahoma State is having a down year but my god, Oregon is demolishing this team. What the hell was Gundy thinking with his comments this week?

 

[Jayded]

Coming out of the Texas game with the family…

Arch Manning is not impressive thus far. His completions were wide, wide open. Any degree of traffic or basic separation was wildly inaccurate. If he’d not have had his rushing touchdown, he’d have had another bad game masked by obvious broken plays.

But he really seems to lack touch and feel for the game thus far. There’s zero chance he goes to the NFL this year unless he makes significant strides. He’s not ready yet, at all.

Yeah. It’s not so good for the Pokes.

Yeah, the stat line and the film will show two different things. He's got work to do. The mechanics are really inconsistent and he's got to get that worked out or it's going to be tough going against better teams.

Everyone around him has basically already said he's coming back next year. They all know he needs experience to develop at Texas. He doesn't need the money either.

 

[WDIK2]

I hadn't considered until now how conflicted Dr Detroit must be today. Wish he was around to ask.

 

[General Malaise]

Blood bath in Eugene. Guess I'll go make my coconut lime shrimp now.

Clemson looks like crap

 

[Sparky Polastri]

WTF?!?!?!!

We saw Byron Leftwich part 2 and a kicker who learned to kick off youtube and this thread is on page two on the first day of real games?

passively watched this game last night. did it also feel to you like the announcers were a HS booth that got pulled in at the last minute because CBS couldn't get anyone else to call the game?

Yes. They were terrible. I will also ask all of you if you have problem with audio while watching ABC? It is REALLY low for me. This has been a couple years now for me. I thought it might be my affiliate when I was in Nashville, but I have since moved to FL and the problem persists.

Yes. I thought it was my local affiliate too. Busy weekend so i missed the games, but I've noticed this kind of thing for awhile now.

This seems to be remedied if you watch the game on the ESPN app....FYI.

Haven’t seen this score yet. What’s going on?!

It's on my second screen but Troy scored early and then there was a weather delay. Troy got a field goal and Clemson can't move the ball (until now they just scored). The second Troy TD was a 5 yard pick six on a typical Klubnik batted ball.

GT plays them next week in the ATL.

I imagine Clemson pulls this out but that score shocked me.

Oklahoma St. Oooof

Troy looks like the better team so far...it is now 16-3 Troy and they are driving for another score at the two-minute warning.

 

[timschochet]

Troy running the ball up the middle on Clemson- up 16-3 and may score again before halftime. Loving this.

 

[General Malaise]

Oklahoma St. Oooof

Yeah, I just came back downstairs to catch up. There's a full quarter to go and it's 69-3. What does Coach Gundy even say after this? Feels like a career ender to me.

 

[Instinctive]

1. Our tailgate setup is sick.

2. I love midwestern football fans. These Michiganders are my people.

3. Oklahoma St has pretty much always sucked and I'm so glad we don't have this dumb game where we win 80% of the time but should never lose and sometimes we do and it's idiotic.

4. Arch looked solid can't wait to put them back down again in October

5. Our tailgate setup is sick.

3 TDs in a minute to go from 48 to 69. Two pick sixes. Not like Lanning is even running it up.

 

[Instinctive]

Also Michigan's chants are kinda lame compared to ours. Sorry guys. Even UT has better chants and stuff.

Okie St is going to struggle in the B12 this year.

KU vs MU is entertaining.

But will he still be a man?

 

[Sparky Polastri]

Does OSU even have a hot seat?

 

[Sparky Polastri]

South Flo giving Flo all they want, showing that game against BSU wasn't a fluke

Good luck, should be a great game

I guess I didnt know that mattered outside of TAMU.

 

[fruity pebbles]

That Clemson game turned around quick

 

[rustycolts]

Gators suck. That is all.

 

[kupcho1]

Florida doing their best to lose this game.

 

[AAABatteries]

Damn - that was gross. Glad they ejected him.

Nice, instant karma.

What happened?

BOOOOOOOOOMMMMMEEEEERRRRRRRRRRRRR

BOOOOOOOOOMMMMMEEEEERRRRRRRRRRRRR

Aren't you at the game?

 

[belljr]

Tampa proves once again it's better than Gainesville

 

[AAABatteries]

Damn - that was gross. Glad they ejected him.

What happened?

Kid for Florida spit a huge loogie in the lineman’s face.

BOOOOOOOOOMMMMMEEEEERRRRRRRRRRRRR

They have Internet

Get it together Michigan

Suspension should follow!

Yep need to kick him off the team. I know Spurrier sure would have.

 

[Jayded]

Michigan vs OU in my Irish & Longhorn house is causing debate. We aren’t sure how to watch this one.

I settled on we are happy one must lose. Would be nice if they both could. If a tie hurts them both, that works too

Fair. I stopped short of saying what I really think. He might pull it together, but so far he hasn’t looked like the guy in waiting/second coming. He looks like the guy who couldn’t beat out Ewers.

That might change, but he has a lot lot of work to do if so. He definitely doesn’t look like the phenom young QBs that have broken onto the scene…yet.

I got some shocking news for you. Most college chants aren't very sophisticated
