And just like that, Oregon State fires their coach and wins a winnable game. Was it against a lowly Lafayette progrum? Sure. But a win is a win. No going winless for an entire season like that team up north in Lossington in 2008(?).

And then there's my Ducks. No disrespect to Indiana, but I feel like the State Penn game was far more physical than people gave it credit for. And as a result, both teams - even with Oregon having a bye, were far more "not too injured to play but still dinged up" than people acknowledge. Indiana also had this brilliant game plan of locking down Kenyon Sadiq and DuckOregon Moore. And I know we love to claim that Oregon has this insane amount of depth - and they do, once you eliminate your 1st and 2nd round NFL draft prospects from the equation, the game gets a lot harder. And this isn't a knock on Oregon - it's praise to Indiana for figuring that out and executing it perfectly. Not sure if I want an eventual rematch against them or tosu more.

Rutgers is a dumpster fire. Don't follow them enough to know if they are in an upward or downward trajectory. But it'd be crazy if Dan Lanning gets 3 head coaches fired in the same season. Sadly, that's kind of the landscape these days.

Literally have no idea why the Wisconsin game is still happening. No disrespect to them, but let's be real here.
Because love can burn like a cigarette.
And leave you left with nothing.
