ISU can move up in the rankings this week if there are more upsets. These are the most likely ones:

- # 5 Texas (-17.5) vs # 25 Vandy in Nashville.
- # 3 Penn State (-6.5) vs Wisconsin in Madison.

I'm not a betting man, but I can't believe Texas is such a heavy favorite on the road. # 14 Texas A&M could also beat # 8 LSU but that would likely just move A&M up to where LSU is ranked.

Husker fans really do live in the past. I've heard one former Husker claim they should be running the option and I just heard someone call into the local sports radio asking why they aren't running the triple option

Alright time to watch this Boise St @ UNLV game on CBS Network. Some think this the biggest game in UNLV history.

BC had same situation as ISU last week. Down 4, 65 yards to go, 1:25 to go and with a timeout. Couldn't get past the Louisville 40, hail mary incomplete.

Yeah, UNLV really ****** that up. Boise State has a good offense. Their QB is pretty good. You only really hear about Jeanty.

Boise St. Looks like a pretty good team to me. They wouldn't win the Big XII, but they'd be top half.

Get ready to hear from the media the rest of the season that the Big 12 champ needs to go undefeated to receive a bye over a 1 loss and Mountain West champ Boise State.

UNLV really crapped the bed in the final five minutes of that first half.
That UNLV QB is a dynamic runner, but he cannot hit the broadside of a barn as a passer. The Rebels could have won that game if they were more patient.
