The Yogi Berra “It
ain’t over until it’s over Award” goes to….It's a tie. TCU and Florida. TCU wins on the road against the Red Raiders
with a tipped-for-a-TD pass and staved off a last-play Cal-Stanford-esque pass,
catch and lateral by the Red Raiders. Florida
came from behind late in the 4thQtr. to win against Tennessee. Gators QB Will Grier was 5 for 5 on 4th
downs including a 4th down TD pass with 1:39 to go. The Vols got two
last second chances for field goals (after FL coach Jim McElwain called a
timeout just before the snap on the first one), missing both to the right.
The 2nd place Yogi
Berra “It ain’t over until it’s over Award” goes to…Adams St. They won over Western St., 52-51, in OT. It was close in total yards, too: Western St.:
622; Adams St.: 619.
The Warner Wolf Award
goes to…Southern VA. If you had the
Knights and 83, you lost! Salisbury (VA)
91, Southern VA 7.
You took the “Over,”
right??? At the Cotton Bowl in
Dallas, surrounded by the State Fair of Texas, Grambling 70, Prairie View
A&M 54. Vendors from the fried food
stands outside the stadium may have applied some grease to the turf as the two
teams also glided up and down the field for 1,136 yards of combined offense.
“Hello? Waldorf-Astoria???” Yes, I
need to book some rooms for the weekend of December 12th. Oh, the name??? Better make it two names, Fournette and Miles.
LSU running back Leonard Fournette continued his Heisman quest by carrying 26 times for 244 and two
TDs. It’s the first time a Tiger running
back has run for 200 yards in two consecutive games. BTW---The Tigers have not turned over the
ball in 12 consecutive quarters this season.
“Sherman, set the
Wayback Machine for “Bo.” Jim
Harbaugh’s yesteryear I-formation offense ran for 250, passed for 194 using a
tailback, a fullback and a tight end.
Looking down from heaven, Bo Schembechler would also be proud of the
Wolverines’ D that shutout the Cougars’ 30-points-per-game offense
and held it to only 105 yards.
Looking ahead to next weekend…
Key games: #6 Notre Dame @ #12 Clemson; #13 Bama @ #8 Georgia; #21 Miss. St. @ #14 Texas A&M *(Arlington,
JerryWorld) and #3 Ole Miss @ #25 Florida.

I'm looking forward to a Sunday when the Buckeyes are worthy of your attention, in a positive way of course. Right now they either suffer from having too many tools or are just trying all 1000 plays and formations in the Offensive play book so the guys are familiar with them when they really need them later in the season.

ReplyDeleteBama opens as a one point underdog at Georgia. First time since the 2009 SEC Championship game vs. Florida that the Tide has not been favored in a game. The line might fluctuate back in Bama's favor before kickoff, but if it doesn't that will be the end of an incredible streak.
