Week 4 Thread!
Week 4 is yet another fantastic week in college football, as is every other week...
Thursday kicked the week of with Miami-#20 Texas A&M
There are two games this week that are top-25 match ups,
#12 South Carolina @ #2 Lousiana State
and!
#22 Georgia @ #16 Alabama
*edit: my bad, i guess texas a&m was on the brain

Georgia plays Bama. Should be a very exciting game. Or maybe a blow out if Georgia plays like they did against South Carolina. I like our defensive advantage over their slight offensive advantage, though.
And Knowshon Moreno is a monster. I predict he'll have a big game in the rushing and receiving departments.

well A&M proved once again that if you have any sort of speed on either side of the ball you can kick the **** outta them.
i get angered watching them play, its 2007, the option is only fun to watch if you're playing ncaa videogame. come into the 21st century now damnit. i hate teams that refuse to adapt partly b/c of tradition but that **** doesnt win now. nebraska finally realized it and are just now getting back to respectability. they also need to realize that once you're down 24-0 you need to throw the ball over 10 yards and if your running game hasnt worked so far why would it start now.
that said they probably have a top 5 running attack in the nation (maybe even 3rd behind WVU and Arkansas)
as for georgia/bama you're getting your ass kicked bulldogs (at least i hope) bama lucked out after blowing a big lead but its another home game so i hope they can bounce back. hopefully dj hall isnt hurt b/c he was a monster when he was in the game last week.

Conference play is finally upon us, at least almost everywhere.
The PSU-Michigan game should be interesting. Penn State has played what has to be the cakest non-conference schedule this side of Kansas St. in the late 90s. Has Michigan righted the ship yet, and with a freshman QB to boot?
East Carolina-WVU bears watching. The Pirates are better than most people think, and I'm hearing that there suddenly aren't enough footballs to go around in Morgantown despite a pretty good public show by Slaton and White.
Notre Dame gets its last legit shot at a win for another month, a home date with Michigan State. I think the Spartans are going to run right thru them. If everything I'm hearing out of South Bend is accurate (and it's from numerous informed sources), Charlie Weis is thisclose to completely losing his young team. He might have made a huge mistake in hitching his wagon to Claussen, whom most of the rest of the team clearly dislikes.
I wonder if Texas will play down to Rice the way they did to UCF.
I wonder if Purdue will crack the 60-point barrier against Minnesota
I wonder which rising Big Ten team wins between Illinois and Indiana
I wonder if UCLA can bounce back from getting pounded against a Washington team that got pounded themselves.
I wonder if people will stop hyping Colt Brennan so much when his replacement puts up very simliar numbers this week.

As an Oregon fan, I'm going to be intently watching PSU-Michigan. If Michigan pulls off the upset (and I see no reason why they can't), does that legitimize Oregon? The Ducks have to go through Stanford, which shouldn't be easy by any stretch, but I'm looking forward to it.
UW fans are seriously believing (monkeyfeng, that means you), so I'd pick them over UCLA.

In that Louisville game I really lost respect for Steve Kragthorpe. There's no sense of urgency, no flow to their offense, no inspired fire by their defense in the face of a truly embarrassing loss.
Mario Urrutia has fallen another notch in my scouting book thanks to his classless penalty in crunch time.
