CFW Week 10 Results - Napier and Cristobal on the danger list

 CFW Week 10 Results – Napier and Cristobal on the danger list

Hodgepodge in Week 10

 

Brent Venables isn’t real popular either. And Jimbo? Poor Jimbo.

 

Ten weeks into the college football season and what do we have? Hodgepodge. We have a heterogeneous combination of possibilities. It’s a jumble out there – a bit disorderly and a bit untidy. Week 10 had the signs of being a bumpy weekend. It wasn’t so bumpy after all. However, Week 10 did leave us with hodgepodge – a mixture of things.

 

We went from the routine – Georgia won its 26th-straight game – to the extreme – Kansas State went for the touchdown instead of the field goal.

 

Georgia held off Missouri, beating the Tigers, 30-21. The win was Georgia’s 26th-straight win, 36th-straight regular season win, 25th-straight SEC regular season win and 24th-straight win at home. The Dawgs are now 42-1 in their last 43 games.

 

After the end of regulation in Austin, Texas, Kansas State and Texas were tied 30-30. In overtime, Texas kicked a 42-yard field goal and went up 33-30. Kansas State took over and moved the ball to the Texas 4. With a 4th-and-goal, all the Wildcats had to do was kick a 21-yard field goal to put the game into a second overtime. But Kansas State coach Chris Klieman chose to go for the touchdown. Wildcats quarterback Will Howard was sacked. Texas beat Kansas State, 33-30 (OT).

 

Washington-USC didn’t disappoint. Neither did LSU-Alabama.

 

The stage was the Los Angeles Coliseum. The leading actors were Michael Penix (front-runner for this year’s Heisman Trophy) and Caleb Williams (winner of last year’s Heisman Trophy). The score was 7-7 in the first quarter. The score was 14-14, 21-21 and 28-28 in the second quarter. It was 35-35 and 42-42 in the third quarter. Penix passed for 256 yards and two touchdowns. Williams passed for 312 yards and three touchdowns. He rushed for another touchdown. Entering the fourth quarter the score was 42-42. Washington beat USC, 52-42. Both quarterbacks cried after the game.

 

The stage was Bryant-Denny Stadium in Tuscaloosa, Alabama. The leading actors were Jayden and Jalen – LSU’s Jayden Daniels and Alabama’s Jalen Milroe. The score was 7-7 in the first quarter. The score was 14-14 and 21-21 in the second quarter. It was 28-28 in the third quarter. Danels passed for 219 yards and two touchdowns. He rushed for 163 yards and another touchdown. Milroe passed for an identical 219 yards. He rushed for 155 yards and four touchdowns. Early in the fourth quarter, Daniels took a massive hit to the head. He left the field, briefly reentered the game, but never ran another play. He was placed in concussion protocol. Alabama beat LSU, 42-28.

 

In the Big Ten, the Big Ten East Division is normal – it’s routine. Ohio State beat Rutgers, 35-16, Michigan downed Purdue, 41-13 and Penn State flattened Maryland, 51-15. But how about the wild, wild West. Or perhaps better, the wacky, wacky West. Iowa, who has no offense, leads the West Division. With only 169 total yards, the Hawkeyes beat Northwestern, 10-7. Perhaps the score was only appropriate since the game was played at the Chicago Cubs’ Wrigley Field.

 

Wisconsin, who was favored to win the West, lost to one of the two worst teams from the Big Ten East. The Badgers fell to Indiana, 20-14. Nebraska, winners of three-straight games and looking to become bowl eligible for the first time since 2016, lost to the other worst team from the Big Ten East. The Huskers fell to Michigan State, 20-17. And finally, Illinois beat Minnesota, 27-26. There’s nothing normal or routine in the Big Ten West Division.

 

With a 4-4 record, everyone had written Clemson’s obituary. The Tigers were coming into their game against 12th-ranked Notre Dame. Clemson was 0-2 in its last two games. The Irish were favored. Clemson beat Notre Dame, 31-23.

 

Texas A&M-Ole Miss didn’t disappoint. The stage was Vaught-Hemmingway Stadium in Oxford, Mississippi. The leading actors were Texas A&M quarterback Max Johnson and Ole Miss quarterback Jaxson Dart. Ole Miss led 7-0 in the first quarter. Ole Miss led 20-14 at halftime. The Magnolias led 31-21 at the end of the third quarter. Texas A&M took its first lead in the game at 35-31 with 4:34 to go in the fourth quarter. Johnson passed for 305 yards and one touchdown. Dart passed for 387 yards and two touchdowns. Ole Miss retook the lead at 38-35 with 1:40 to go in the game. Ole Miss held on and beat Texas A&M, 38-35.

 

The stage was Empower Field at Mile High in Denver, Colorado. Seventeenth-ranked Air Force was undefeated at 8-0. Army was 2-6, riding a 5-game losing streak. The previous week, Army lost to LSU, 62-0. In Denver Saturday, Army upset Air Force, 23-3. Air Force had six turnovers. Army had none.

 

So, if Army beats Navy – pray not – on December 9, the Cadets will win the Commander-in-Chief’s Trophy. However, if Navy beats Army – pray so – there will be a three-way tie for the trophy.

 

In Columbia, South Carolina, the Gamecocks beat the Gamecocks. Oh, I’m sorry. Cocky beat Cocky. Oh, I’m sorry again. The score was 7-7 in the first quarter. The score was 14-14 in the second quarter. It was 21-21 and 28-28 in the third quarter. In the end, South Carolina beat Jacksonville State, 38-28. The Gamecocks won. They couldn’t lose.    

 

In Stillwater, Oklahoma, Bedlam had its final chapter. After 118 games, there will be no more Bedlam. No more Oklahoma-Oklahoma State games. At the end of the first quarter, the score was 7-7. At halftime, Oklahoma Stte led, 17-14. As the fourth quarter began, Oklahoma led, 21-17. When Bedlam ended, Oklahoma State beat Oklahoma, 27-24.

 

Unfortunately, the officials committed a little Bedlam too. In the closing minutes of the game, Oklahoma, trailing Oklahoma State by 6 points (27-21), had the ball on the Cowboys 18-yard line. Dillon Gabriel threw a pass into the end zone intended for OU receiver Drake Stoops. There was clear and blatant pass interference by the Oklahoma State defender. The referees, however, failed to throw a flag and ruled the pass incomplete.

 

Oklahoma coach Brent Venables was so mad he got into an argument with the officials. That argument cost Oklahoma 30 yards in penalties. Oklahoma had to settle for a field goal instead of a touchdown.

 

Somebody must have called NC State a basketball school again. The Wolfpack beat Miami (Florida), 20-6. Another Florida school lost too. Arkansas upset Florida, 39-36 (OT). Saturday evening, Miami coach Mario Cristobal and Florida coach Billy Napier were the two biggest targets on social media. Both coaches were trashed.

 

Florida is 5-4, with three games remaining. I can’t see the Gators winning any of the three against LSU, Missouri and Florida State. That means Florida would finish at 5-7. That means no bowl for the Gators. Could that mean no job for Napier?

 

There are no more winless teams. The last holdout – Sam Houston – finally won. The Bearkats, with a “k,” beat Kennesaw State, 24-21. Trailing 21-7 at halftime, Sam Houston scored 17 unanswered points in the second half.

 

College football Week 10 resumed Thursday night in Lubbock, Texas. The Red Raiders of Texas Tech edged TCU, 35-28. TCU had two turnovers. Texas Tech had none. In the second game, Duke kicked a 26-yard field goal as the clock expired to beat Wake Forest, 24-21.

 

In Thursday night’s third game, Troy beat South Alabama, 28-10. At the end of the first quarter, South Alabama led 7-0. Early in the fourth quarter, Troy led by four – 14-10. Then the Trojans exploded late in the quarter with two touchdowns in the final 3:12 of the game. Troy is 7-2.

 

Friday night’s lineup consisted of an ACC and a MWC game. In the ACC encounter, Boston College beat Syracuse, 17-10. BC quarterback Thomas Castellanos passed for 165 yards and   one touchdown and rushed for 87 yards and another touchdown. It was BC’s fifth-straight win. It was Syracuse’s fifth-straight loss.

 

In the MWC game, Wyoming downed Colorado State, 24-15. Wyoming is 6-3.

 

In the Pac-12 on Saturday, Utah beat Arizona State 55-3, and Oregon downed California, 63-19. In the Big 12, West Virginia spanked BYU, 37-7, while Kansas held on to beat Iowa State, 28-21. West Virginia coach Neal Brown has gone from the hottest seat in the country to one of the coolest seats in the land.

 

In the ACC, Georgia Tech keeps improving. The Yellow Jackets beat Virginia, 45-17.

 

In the late, late shows Saturday night/Sunday morning, Stanford edged Washington State, 10-7, Oregon State got by Colorado, 26-19, Arizona beat UCLA, 27-10 and Fresno State outlasted Boise State, 37-30.

 

In the four games I said to keep an eye on – One (Notre Dame at Clemson): Clemson took charge early in this game, building a 24-6 lead in the second quarter. Notre Dame rallied in the second half but lost to Clemson, 31-23. The Tigers played a penalty free game….  Two (Penn State at Maryland): Penn State had two spurts in this game. The Lions scored 17 unanswered points late in the third quarter and early in the fourth quarter to take a 31-7 lead. Then Penn State scored 20 unanswered points in the final 9:14 of the game to win 51-15. Maryland had -49 yards rushing.

 

Three (James Madison at Georgia State): James Madison led Georgia State by only seven points at halftime – 14-7. Then JMU outscored the Panthers 28-7 in the second half to win the game, 42-14. JMU had 567 total yards and 33 first downs…..  and Four (Oregon State at Colorado): Oregon State downed Colorado, 26-19, handing the Buffaloes their fifth loss. Colorado had -7 yards rushing. Oregon State improved to 7-2.      

 

And that was your diverse mixture and jumble of games in Week 10 that left us in hodgepodge.

 

USC coach Lincoln Riley fired his defensive coordinator Alex Grinch yesterday. The Trojans gave up 572 yards in their 52-42 loss to Washington on Saturday. The USC defense is giving up 34.5 points per game this season and 436.3 total yards a game.

 

ESPN’s Jordan Rodgers performed double duty on television Saturday. Partnering with Joe Tessitore, Rogers called the 12-noon game between Texas A&M and Ole Miss. That evening, partnering with Tom Hart, Rogers called the 7:30 game between Kentucky and Mississippi State. That’s a lot of talking in one day.

 

During the Purdue-Michigan game in Ann Arbor, Purdue Pete, the Boilers mascot, was seen on the sideline wearing an Ohio State robe and holding a camera.

 

Basketball player Walter Davis died on November 2. Davis played college basketball at North Carolina (1973-1976). Following college, he played 15 seasons in the NBA, primarily with the Phoenix Suns – 12 seasons. He was an NBA All-Star (6 times). Davis also was a member of the USA men’s basketball team that played in the 1976 Montreal Olympics. A native of Pineville, North Carolina, Walter Pearl Davis was 69.

YE OLDE STOMPING GROUNDS:

 

Ground attack – West Virginia 37, BYU 7 (Touchdown Tom said: West Virginia 30, BYU 20). WVU led 27-0 at halftime and 37-0 as the fourth quarter began. BYU scored its only touchdown with 6:24 left in the game. WVU running back Jaheim White rushed for 146 yards and C.J. Donaldson rushed for 102 yards. The Mounties had 567 total yards – 336 rushing.

With two minutes to go in the first quarter, Florida tied the score – 14-14. Each team kicked a field goal in the second quarter. Florida led 26-23 at the end of three.

Florida quarterback Graham Mertz passed for 282 yards and three touchdowns. Arkansas quarterback K.J. Jefferson passed for 255 yards and two touchdowns. Jeffersson also rushed for 92 yards and another touchdown. Florida coach Billy Napier sure pulls some strange stunts.

The Corn was Green – Michigan State 20, Nebraska 17 (Touchdown Tom said: Nebraska 28, Michigan State 16). Early in the second quarter, Nebraska briefly led 7-3.

Nebraska never scored again until 3:35 left in the game. But at that point, Michigan State was already up 20-10. Nebraska quarterback Heinrich Haarberg threw two interceptions. That is getting to be a habit. The Huskers had three turnovers. The Spartans only had 63 yards rushing. Attendance in East Lansing: 63,134

 

The Dookies were no kookies – Duke 24, Wake Forest 21 (Touchdown Tom said: Duke 29, Wake Forest 20). Without quarterback Riley Leonard, Duke just isn’t the same team. Still, the Blue Devils managed to beat Wake Forest on a game ending field goal as time expired. The field goal was set up when the Dookies intercepted an errant Wake Forest pass. With Leonard still sidelined with his foot/ankle injury, Grayson Loftis filled in at quarterback for the Dookies. Loftis was only 7-for-19 passing and threw an interception of his own. The Demon Deacons offense dominated the game with 400 total yards. Duke had 287. But the Duke defense came up with the big plays when it had too. Duke is 6-3. Attendance in Durham: 18,277

 

Men of steal – Michigan 41, Purdue 13 (Touchdown Tom said: Michigan 36, Purdue 14). Michigan’s J.J. McCarthy had no touchdowns, but he passed for 335 yards.
