Saturday’s
record: 5-3; for the season: 67-20.
The
College Football Playoff Shakeup (This week):
Another week, another
shakeup. Those who lost: Ohio State, Oklahoma State, TCU, Houston,
LSU, Memphis and Wisconsin.
The Yogi Berra “It ain’t over until it’s over
Award” goes to…. Michigan State. The Spartans dominated the line of
scrimmage on both ends of the ball.
State kicker Michael Geiger’s 41-yard field goal that went through the uprights
as time expired ended the Buckeyes 23-game winning streak and, likely, their
chance at a second year in a row shot at a National Championship.
The
2nd place Yogi Berra “It ain’t over until it’s over Award” goes to...Oklahoma. TCU trailed the Sooners 30-13 entering the 4th
Qtr. and lost after a pass for a
two-point conversion was batted away with 57 seconds to play, ending the game,
OU 30, TCU 29.
Upsets
of the Weekend: Michigan State beating Ohio State; Baylor over
Oklahoma State; UConn over Houston; Temple defeated Memphis.
The
Warner Wolf Award (FBS) goes to…Charleston Southern. If
you had the 9-1 Buccaneers and 41, you lost.
Alabama 56 Charleston So. 6.
You
took the “Over,” right??? 1st Place, FBS: 101.
Miss. State 51 Arkansas 50.
You
took the “Over,” right? 2nd Place, Div. II: 120. Valdosta State 61 Carson-Newman 59.
Quick
Headlines…
Farewell,
Frank. Virginia Tech fans bid adieu to HBC Frank
Beamer on Saturday in the Hokies final home game of the season. Unfortunately for the venerable coach, the
Hokies lost 32-27 in OT to North Carolina, that won its 10th
consecutive game of the season. Coach
Beamer has 278 wins at Va. Tech. The
Hokies need a win next week to become bowl eligible.
The
only undefeated team in Ohio. In Div. III, Mount Union (OH)
continued its domination by beating St Lawrence (NY) 55-23 in the first round
of the Div. III playoffs. The Raiders
have now won 92 consecutive home games.
They
call him Mr. Touchdown. Navy QB Keenan Reynolds ran for a TD in the
Midshipmen’s win over Tulsa on Saturday, giving him 82 rushing TDs in his
career. Reynolds is just one rushing TD
shy of tying former Wisconsin running back Monte Ball’s NCAA FBS record of 83.

week’s CFP rankings will be out on Tuesday. Here’s the link: http://www.collegefootballplayoff.com/#home0
