Cyclone Alert Publisher Alec Busse publishes 18 thoughts on Big 12 football following Week 1 with a look ahead to the marquee Week 2 games in the conference at the end. 1. West Virginia played the Big 12's biggest game of the week to start the season on Saturday hosting No. 8 Penn State, giving the Mountaineers an opportunity to record a marquee victory for WVU and for the Big 12. But West Virginia never looked like they were going to put a serious scare into Penn State even though a severe weather delay. Despite a scoreless first quarter, Penn State took a 20-6 lead into halftime with PSU quarterback Drew Allar throwing three a pair of passes for Harrison Wallace for scores, including a 50-yard bomb to take a 6-0 lead following a failed two-point conversion. Kaytron Allen also caught a second-quarter touchdown pass from Allar to help PSU gain control of the game in the second quarter. When Nicholas Singleton broke free for a 40-yard score just five minutes into the third quarter, it was clear Penn State had separated itself enough to feel comfortable about its season opener. West Virginia is supposed to have one of the Big 12's best-rushing offenses this season, but C.J. Donaldson and Jahiem White combined for just 75 total rushing yards in the loss. The good news for West Virginia is that they won't play as talented a defense again all season, so Neal Brown will have an opportunity to run wild with Donaldson, White and quarterback Garrett Greene – who passed for 161 yards on Saturday – helping pace the offense.

Pittsburgh, PA

Pittsburgh Steelers head coach Mike Tomlin is in a difficult position: Should he sacrifice one player's potential for the team's unfortunate reality? Tomlin tends to rely on the flexibility of his offensive line a little too much. That is fine for veterans like Dan Moore Jr., who is little more than filler until Troy Fautanu is ready to start.

Green Bay, WI

When the Green Bay Packers announced their 53-man roster last week, perhaps the biggest surprise was the inclusion of defensive lineman Arron Mosby. The former undrafted free agent who has three NFL games under his belt in his career was a long shot to make the active roster. Thanks to his impressive performance where he had a strip-sack for a touchdown and an interception in the preseason finale against the Baltimore Ravens, the 25-year-old earned himself one of the final roster spots.

Our exclusive interview with Tony Gonzalez yielded some intriguing answers to questons about his favorite moment with K.C. and whether or not he still "has it". How long does a legend still "have it"? According to Pro Football Hall of Fame tight end Tony Gonzalez, at least at the age of 48. That's because the Kansas City Chiefs legend is still in tremendous shape and could even hit the field one more time if needed.

The Lens

During my childhood, when my family visited relatives “across the river,” in Bayou Plaquemine, Bayou Goula, Caddo, the Pointe, and White Castle, my siblings and I would sometimes race up and down the levees, some distance away from the cows grazing there. At the summit of the hill, you could see the Mississippi River waters through stands of trees and brush. It never occurred to me that our “playground” was the living testimony of Black men, prisoners of the Louisiana State Penitentiary at Angola whom the state of Louisiana had re-enslaved in the convict leasing system.

Don Hall is an avid snowmobiler, but instead of heading for the hills each winter in search of deep powder, he takes an older snowmachine to lower elevations nearer the snow line. There’s a reason the Riverton resident prefers the lower zones despite the rocks, fences and sage most riders avoid: That’s where the coyotes are.

Wyoming allows snowmobilers to run down wildlife. Despite global outrage, it may stay legal.
