UCLA's Hot Mess of a Win is Exactly What We Should Have Expected
That's about what we should have expected. Did you really expect that this team, in its first game of the season, first game with a new staff, new offense and new defense, would be a well-oiled machine?. Well, yes, maybe you expected it to be a little more oiled than...

Competiton continues as Husker running backs flex depth in season-opening win
Nebraska likely didn't gain much clarity Saturday in its on-going running back competition, but that wasn't necessarily a bad thing against UTEP. The Huskers' four running backs — Rahmir Johnson, Emmett Johnson, Dante Dowdell and Gabe Ervin Jr., all saw snaps in Saturday's game when it was still in doubt as the Huskers ran up 223 yards rushing against UTEP.

In reuniting with Brent Venables, new DC Zac Alley wants to make Oklahoma a 'defensive stalwart'
NORMAN — Zac Alley doesn't think he sounds like head football coach Brent Venables, even if everyone — Oklahoma's players included — believes the Sooners' new defensive coordinator sounds eerily like his mentor when he speaks. The cadence, the timbre, the subtleties in the accent. If you...
Scarborough: Cautious optimism after convincing opening win
Let's not get carried away. No, seriously. Chill. It's only one game — at home, against a woefully overmatched opponent, to start the season. But when the start of the season — and of the Kalen DeBoer era — comes with a resounding final score of Alabama 63, Western Kentucky 0 … when Jalen Milroe looks as confident as he did in a new offense and racks up five total touchdowns … when Ryan Williams is sprinting past cornerbacks for scores of 84 and 55 yards … when the defense is stuffing the run to the tune of 1.6 yards per carry and Keon Sabb is pulling down a pair of interceptions at safety …
Notre Dame Commit Cree Thomas Looks Sharp in Debut Win
After tuning in to his game on Friday night, I was telling someone this on Saturday morning….. I won't be surprised if the way people described and gushed about Leonard Moore toward the end of fall camp turns out to be similar to the feedback Cree Thomas generates a year from now.
Mountaineer Report Card: Top and bottom performers in the loss to Penn State
TOP OFFENSIVE PLAYERS (above 65.0, at least 10 snaps) Thoughts: Not a lot to like about the offense. No surprise there. Malone was given high marks thanks in large part to his pass blocking (87.4), while Rimac had a bit more of a well-rounded game (76.1 pass block, 66.3 run block). The scouts also gave credit to the running backs, even though the Mountaineers struggled to move the ball.
Column: Ugly for Georgia football is still pretty for everybody else
ATLANTA -- Two things were true about Georgia's game against Clemson on Saturday: The Bulldogs started slow on offense, and their defense made sure that didn't matter at all. There was plenty to clean up after Saturday's season opener, but teams across the country would move heaven and earth to trade their problems for Georgia's. The Bulldogs only had 160 yards of offense and six points in the first half, but they weathered the storm thanks to a defense that only allowed 75 yards in that span — including all of 15 in the second quarter.

Cleveland Browns News and Rumors 9/1: New Stadium Options, Texans Victory Laps, and Bad Mall Photography
When we were young, and our lives were still ahead of us, my wife and I went to one of those photography studios at the local mall to take photos of our young family. I believe there were only four of us then, so this would have been the early to mid-1990s, back before photography studios were replaced by phones on selfie sticks.

A lot of young guys played a lot of defensive snaps — and played well! — in Alabama’s 63-0 win over WKU
TUSCALOOSA, Ala. — The good news about a lopsided win in college football is that a lot of younger players, or guys that wouldn't normally play a lot, usually get to play. This helps with overall development, mental confidence, building depth, all the things. The interesting thing about Alabama's...
Why Notre Dame's win over Texas A&M paves College Football Playoff path
Notre Dame is in terrific shape in getting to the expanded College Football Playoff this season following Saturday night's thrilling win at Texas A&M in a battle of nationally-ranked competition. Sans the Aggies completely flatlining the rest of the way during Mike Elko's first campaign, the victory for the Fighting Irish is one they'll keep in their back pocket when the selection committee first convenes at midseason and most importantly, wipes away one of the toughest matchups on this season's docket that could have gone in either direction.
