Washington – Texas – Oklahoma Survive:
I am going to say these things happen and a win is a win. I’m most concerned about Texas floundering as well as losing Ewers to injury. If I had to power rank these teams now I would say Oklahoma – Washington – Texas. Which is certainly flipped from how I felt two weeks ago.
Virginia 31 – UNC 27
I think we all knew UNC wasn’t as good as advertised but losing to Virginia is nothing short of a spectacular letdown. “Drake Maye not be getting a Heisman invite after all.” IF you run the “don’t eat the cheese” campaign and then lose. You should be forced to eat cheese for your next 6 meals. Maybe that is why Wisconsin is so bad…
Tennessee 20 – Alabama 34
A picture is worth a thousand words or 27 unanswered:
Woof.
Penn State 12 – Ohio State 20
Homer take incoming: The only thing I could think while watching these two teams is how badly we are going to destroy them. All this hype around Allar, dude went 18-42 passing. These looked like two okay teams and one of those two teams has Marvin Harrison Jr.
Missouri 36 – South Carolina 12
This game is barely noteworthy enough to mention but it is one of those games you see on the ticker and go. “Whoa Missouri is 7-1?!” I like Missouri, they play Georgia, Tennessee, Florida to end the year. I will be genuinely curious hos they stack up against them. Much like my 4 year old when she falls off her bike, they could make some serious noise… or possibly just carry on like no one is watching.
Utah 34 – USC 32
There have been very few wins in the history of time that have felt as good as this. Seeing Caleb Williams cry baby face and Lincoln Riley’s befuddled blank stare will keep me happy for several days. I could step on a lego and barely react as long as I thought about Caleb Williams going 0-3 vs. Utah in his career. You know when the doctor’s give you something to bite down during an emergency amputation? They just hand me this picture:
Duke 20 – Florida State 38
I would’ve preferred to see Riley Leonard play this whole game, it’s not really fair one of FSU’s few tests get off that easy. I would pencil them in for the playoff, I might even say they are the most likely team to make the playoff at this point. Yes, even over Georgia. That’s the kind of bold take you bring the Gamenotes.
Michigan 49 – MSU 0
Did you guys see they had a picture of Hitler on the scoreboard? That’s wild. MSU had more Hitlers than they did points. Hitler was somehow not the most offensive thing to appear on the MSU scoreboard. The most “offensive” thing MSU did Saturday was shown during the pre-game trivia. Hitler was born in Austria, not a joke, just something I got to learn thanks to MSU pre-game trivia. To be fair, MSU is looking like they might need to clean house (a cleansing if you will) and start over fresh for the football program.
There is no thrill of victory without the agony of defeat. Never really understood that until Saturday night. The fact that the Spartans couldn’t even put up a fight made Saturday night, boring? Get well soon Spartan bros, I want to beat you 49-0 every game, but genuinely surprised when I do so.
Detroit 6 – Ravens 38
Yikes. Don’t hit the e-brake but maybe let off the gas a bit on the Lions hype train. Tough one to watch, got to turn it off at halftime just like good ol’ times though.
Falcons 16 – Buccaneers 13
One of the quality wins for the Lions looks a lot worse now. Ritter vs Baker is a match-up I could do without ever watching again.
Browns 39 – Colts 38
Just when I was certain I understood something in the NFL, that the Browns have an elite defense. Starter Gardner Minshew passes for 305 yards.
Bills 25 – Patriots 29
The NFL makes about as much sense as my 4 year old trying to tell me a story right before bed. Her mind is cloudy and the words just aren’t coming, but sounds just keeping pouring out.
Commands 7 – Giants 14
Steelers 24 – Rams 17
Packers 17 – Broncos 19
Raiders 12 – Bears 30
There are a lot of bad teams in the NFL. Are any of these games even watchable from a non-fan? Maybe just hate watching the Packers.
Dolphins 17 – Eagles 31
Uhoh Dolphins, lets take a look at the teams you have beaten:
Chargers, Patriots, Broncos, Giants, Panthers. 5 of the worst 10 teams in the league.
Looks who handled you:
Eagles and Bills
Something smells a little off here. And if you look at their schedule, we might never know how good they really are until the playoffs. Chiefs on November 5th, make sure you watch it!
Tonight: 49ers vs. Vikings
Nothing makes sense anymore, so Vikings win 24-27
