GO FLORIDA ST.

Hey, it's not our fault your team already blew its season.

[FN Phat]

Moore with his 4th td of the night. He is keeping with the 5-7 yd dumps as long as they are giving the receivers a bit of cushion. He is setting it up to burn them long.

[Jeff Lebowski]

I absolutely love kellen moore. He makes the position look so easy.

Me too.

Boise st would once again rip through both BYU and Utah this year. I cannot figure out how they get players to go there.

They should figure it out too and lure a kicker to their team.

What do you guys think about (1) Oklahoma @ (4) Florida State? Oklahoma's on the road and without its starting LB, and has only played one game this season.

fwiw, Oklahoma hasn't beaten a ranked non-conference team on the road in something like fifteen years.

Florida State Fans annoy me so I'm rooting for the Sooners. Not that my opinions/thoughts really amount to much considering my knowledge level, but I think this will be a great year for your Sooners.

It may matter against TCU and Oklahoma this year.

That stat that OU hasn't beaten a ranked non-conference team on the road is a worthless stat. The "stat" is that they have played only two ranked non-conference opponents in true road games in Stoops 12 years, prior to tomorrow. One was in 2009 against Miami, without Bradford after BYU had injured him. The other was in 2006 against Oregon, the infamous game where even the refs conceded that Oklahoma should have won the game except for their mistakes. And they still only lost both games by a single point.

My personal thought is that an extra year of preparation, combined with being at home, doesn't make up the 30 point deficit that FSU lost by last year; so OU gets the win on the road against a ranked non-conference opponent.

The same way other colleges who get punished by the NC double A holes do: They offer improper benefits.

Me too.

The thing that irks me about it is I love to hate boise st and I feel like I can't do it with him at the helm.

But man, he is something. I've seen very few college qbs ever that can place the ball exactly where they want it the way he can. He made a bunch of throws last night where the receiver was mostly covered but he puts it in a spot where only his guy has the chance to make a play.

For the hype that Andrew Luck gets (and if you listen to Locke, Matt Barkley), I think Kellen Moore has the chance to be a pretty darn good QB at the next level as well. Reminds me of the '83 draft. Elway was the QB prize, but you had a few other QBs like Marino and Jim Kelly who were pretty darn good in their own right, and a few others who were solid starters (Ken O'Brien, Tony Eason).

IMO, I'd rather have Luck, Barkley or Moore over any of the other QBs taken in round 1 this year, though if Cam Newton can keep up his pace, that tone will change quickly.

I just noticed that there is a fan with a Y t shirt at the beginning of the new Coming to your City.

College Gameday is the only show worth anything on ESPN, other than the actual sports.
