**********

Armadillo: Sunday's List of 13: Wrapping up a college football Saturday

13) Alabama 10, LSU 0— Old-time football. Can’t blame Les Miles for this one. Two QBs were badly overmatched by speedy defenses in this game. This was first time in nine years (Florida State, ’07) that Crimson Tide didn’t score in first half.

Since Nick Saban has been at Alabama (2007) every other SEC team has changed coaches. I’m totally baffled as to what LSU will do for a head coach.

12) Florida State 24, NC State 20— Gutty road win for the Seminoles, making Tuesday night’s Showtime episode another good one. I have a feeling FSU is going to win their bowl game by a lot- it’ll be a lesser bowl and they’ll be lot healthier, especially on defense. NC State had 31 first downs in this game, but lost.

11) Wisconsin 21, Northwestern 7— Evanston is a suburb of Chicago; no way was this a normal week in the Windy City, with the Cubs winning the World Series late Wednesday night, then the parade with five million people Friday afternoon. Did the World Series mess up Northwestern’s prep for this game, or is it a simple case of the better team winning?

10) Mississippi State 35, Texas A&M 28— People get all bent out of shape about the rankings for the playoffs, but these things tend to play themselves out in November. Now Aggies are out of the top 4 so people can stop complaining about A&M and start complaining again Tuesday night, when they’re replaced in the top 4 by someone else.

9) Minnesota 44, Purdue 31— Coaching 101— Gophers led 37-31 with under 2:00 left, score TD with 1:30 left to go up 43-31. It didn’t matter in this game, but you have to to go for 2 points in this spot. Being up 43-31 is the same as 44-31, but 45-31 means if you do give up two TDs, you still get OT to win the game. Minnesota kicked the PAT, which was a mistake.

8) Upset of the Day: Tex-San Antonio 45, Middle Tennessee 25— Roadrunners were a 20-point underdog- they ran ball for 270 yards and only need one more win to become bowl eligible.

Upset of the Day, #2— Charlotte 38, Southern Miss 27— 49ers were a 19.5-point underdog and got a big win for their young program.

7) Illinois 31, Michigan State 27— Spartans were 36-5 the last three years; they’re 2-7 this year and now have lost seven games in a row.

6) Navy 28, Notre Dame 27— Fighting Irish are now 3-6 as they head to San Antonio to play Army next week; they still have to play Virginia Tech and USC. If I was a college football coach, I’d never schedule Navy- they’re too good and no one is impressed if you beat them.

5) TCU 62, Baylor 22— Two straight losses for the Bears; TCU ran 90 plays for 688 yards in an easy win (was 38-14 at the half). Curious to see how the coaching situation at Baylor plays out; doubtful Kendall Briles can stay there, with his dad having been fired. Could be wholesale changes, but they have lot of talented kids who could transfer out, so tough decisions need to be made. they need to keep as many of those players as possible.

4) South Carolina 31, Missouri 21— Gamecocks coach Will Muschamp put mousetraps all over the Carolina football facility this week, to remind players/coaches “not to take the cheese” and think the Gamecocks were bigger than life.

The ploy worked, Carolina won and is now 5-4- they need one more win to go bowling.

3) Oklahoma State 43, Kansas State 37— This was a fun game to watch; OSU ran 64 plays for 637 yards- only six of those 64 plays came on third down, thats how well they moved the ball, passing for 457 yards. K-State had the ball inside the 5-yard line in the last 0:30, before time ran out on them.

2) Georgia 27, Kentucky 24— SEC title game is going to be awful, Alabama favored by 20+ over Tennessee or Florida or some other mediocre team from the SEC East. Kentucky would have been atop East had they won this game. Dawgs kicked FG at the gun for the road win.

1— This is where I advise you to be careful taking big point spreads against teams who are trying to impress pollsters. Coaches won’t think twice about hanging huge scores up so they don’t get bypassed in this playoff system they have now. Consider yourself warned.
