Very interested to see the Fresno USC game. Should give us a good barometer of where Fresno is at to start the year
 

I'll be curious Georgia Tech solely to see how they adapt from being an option offense.

But I'm excited to have college football back!
 

Lots of intriguing games to start the season. Could be a wet mess in Tampa for the WI-S Florida game.
 


Pumped for the return of college football!

Go Gophers!!
 

FSU-Boise State game is being moved to Tallahasee over Hurricane Dorian

Florida State University now gets to have its college football season opener at home, thanks to Hurricane Dorian.

Saturday's game between FSU and Boise State will now be played in Tallahassee at noon, city officials announced Thursday. The game was originally scheduled to take place in Jacksonville at 7 p.m. ET.

Mayor Lenny Curry called it a "difficult decision" in a news conference, saying that he decided on the move after consulting with university leaders and public safety officials.

Go Gophers!!
"This decision was based solely on the safety of our citizens and people that may be traveling to our city," Curry told reporters.
 

Watching Cincy vs UCLA until the Gophers. Some early mistakes on the first drive by the Bearcats.
 

So I was just about to compliment UCLA's offense and then boom, fumble in the red. Cincy knocking on the door after a 52 yard pass. And now Cincy scores.
 




Rutgers losing early, now dominating UMASS
 





Rutgers, WI, and MSU all suffering from that “first game rust” that can’t be avoided.

I understand your bit, but I sometimes think you enjoy when gophers struggle
 



Their cupcakes are more GSU style cupcakes. SDSU was no cupcake! At least we can keep thinking that until we get creamed next week...

Great, thanks for egging Talon into yet another thread...:p

Then you don’t understand my “bit” at all.

Purdue is up 10-7 on Nevada, almost to the half.

Nothing special here. SDSU is better than Nevada.

EDIT: long bomb as I was typing, now Purdue up 17-7. Still not like they’ve just blown by them.
 

Another long TD 24-7. Oh so now that I posted Purdue wants to start turning it on. Figures
 



Other B1G teams looked like they were having a great time today...Part of me hates the stress our team brings during non conference. But another part hopes that's just because our competition is just that good.

I thought the Gophers had one of the longer non-conference win streaks. I believe they're 8-0 under P.J. Fleck. TCU is the last loss that I remember.
 

Purdue game got a little interesting. 31-24 with 6 minutes to play.

Man, these penalties on Nevada are just total BS. Refs are being super lame.

EDIT: Holy moly. Nevada wins it on a last second 56 yard FG. What a finish.
