2 pretty controversial no calls at the end of that TCU/Kansas game...horse collar and defensive holding could have been called against TCU on consecutive plays as Kansas driving for trying TD but weren't called. A little unusual given Kansas is the home team but TCU wins a big one and keeps rolling

Maryland scores late and converts 2 point PAT to tie game but gets called back for penalty vs Maryland. Next attempt fails and Purdue hangs on to win 31-29 at Maryland.

USF putting up the good fight @ Cincinnati and just took 17-14 lead in 2nd quarter. Would imagine Cincy might have taken USF lightly but will probably crush them before this one is over

Navy rushes for 455 yards and blows out Tulsa 53-21 in Annapolis. Hope our guys are ready to get physical next week!

Tulane beats ECU 24-9 in NOLA

USF loses a close one 28-24 @ Cincinnati

No such thing as an easy win left on SMU's schedule. Hope our guys can get it together and still have a winning season but we could find out as early as next week whether that is a possibility..

Maybe I did not see it right, but it seemed very clear that Houston had 3 player way offside when they recovered the onside kick. It was on the side the kick went to and among that group was the one that recovered it. If anyone sees a replay please post what you see. It was not close, clearly offside.
FF to 2:39 mark. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WHMsLU4r09E

One UH player MAY have been offside, but it was close. The fault lies with Memphis players who fell back and didn't attack the ball. The UH players went after it while Memphis players watched.

They were at the 2 yard line, the receiver caught the ball at the goal line so the pass was not close to being behind the line of scrimmage. Crazy play - we used to run that type of play and probably need to start running it again.
To me, that was the bigger miss. It clearly is a pick play yet wasn't called. Not sure how refs are instructed to decide what's legal and what's not on that type of play.

I had gone back and looked again and it was the second player from the outside, and I agree it was very close. Closer than I had thought originally. I agree that Memphis did a poor job on their end.

The sports guys here in DC say that Purdue was way offside on that final Maryland play. Either that or the guy is really fast. I hope TCU runs the table and Maryland beats OSU later in the season. Let's beat Navy and take care of bidness. This conference is no cake walk.
UNC better keep that Ram away from Peruna

I hate that Cinci has the week off. They are kind of beat up.

I was worried that Temple was hanging with UCF, but UCF blew it open late. 70-13. WV beat Baylor.
