College Football Recap: Virginia Tech and LSU

     Usually, I don't go bonkers during the first week of college football. I feel this way because in my experience is it some no name team getting the stuffing beaten out of them by a high caliber team (USC, Penn State, LSU, Norte Dame, etc.) This week was no exception with some teams ringing up a half a hundred or more on their opponents. YAWN. I liked the following games

1. OSU vs Georgia - I thought the Bulldogs were going to romp. I was mistaken, and it proved to be good game with the Cowboys playing some inspired football.
2. Virginia Tech  vs Alabama. Again, I thought the Tide was going to roll big over Virginia Tech . In the first half both teams were playing hard, and Vanderbilt took the oppurtunities Alabama gave them in the first half. As a former Nick Sabban disciple, I can tell you that adjustments were made at half time and Alabama decided to play football. As an LSU fan, I don't think I have ever rooted that hard for Virginia Tech .

     I have not watched the LSU game yet (I DVRed it) so the only thing I can say right now is I thought the score was going to be alot higher. It is all good to me because with Georgia losing LSU should stay at 11 or move into the top 10. We will see when the rankings come out.

     I tend to start paying attention to NCAA when week 3 hits and the puffballs are out of the way. Until then, it is hard for me to get excited. Norte Dame over Neveda? Huh? Just can't do it.
