STOP THE COUNT!
The average ancient Egyptian’s diet consisted almost entirely of grain.
This was sustaining, but only barely. Compared to contemporary societies in every direction, they lived shorter lives, had smaller stature, and poorer health. The coarse millstones left grit in the flour that wrecked their teeth over the few decades of their lives.
It was, of course, all they had.
My college football soul is being nourished entirely by the grain of FSU’s sucking and it is sustaining, but only barely.
Texas A&M @ Florida
This Florida team looks so unremarkable. I know the weather is ass… but so are Billy’s Gators. If A&M didn’t play dumb, the score would be a lot worse.
On the plus side, I boiled some peanuts the other day, and I just warmed some up.
Ok, ngl that hold kinda hurts me. The sheer effort from Badger should be commended
Billy: “We need to get some rhythm on offense.”
Also Billy: “Yeah, we’re gonna keep switching quarterbacks.”
I’m gonna tell y’all a secret. A 2-QB system has never been a good thing at Florida. Palmer, Johnson, Brindise, and young Grossman all had holes in their games, and the Leak/Tebow thing was not a true time-share.
This is one of the best setups for a college game. Backup qbs, miserable weather, sloppy play, the gators are losing just about everything you could ask for
UTSA @ 1Texas
The first (and until now, only) time these teams met was in 2022, when I was a professor at UTSA. I showed up to that game in Texas gear but rocked a UTSA hat, thinking I could root for both teams. As soon as it kicked off though, I realized I could only root for my alma mater. Soooo UTSA, I love ya, but go horns go
While I’m glad Arch was able to step right in and score, I’m really concerned about Ewers… If he’s a little banged up, I’d like him to heal up and not aggravate anything
Edit: OK, glad to see he’s staying in at QB on the next series. Aaaaaand that Manning 67-yard TD run was pretty cool, I will say
UCF @ TCU
Frogs looking good in the early going. Hoover is very sharp, and Savion Williams is probably going to get drafted in the first round and then completely forget how to play football, as is tradition for TCU #1 WRs.
UCF is going to wear some teams down, though.
Seems like one of the teams UCF will wear down is TCU, but they’re going to have to stop the Frogs several times, and also get at least one 2pt conversion because their entire kicking unit seems to somehow have the yips.
Why wasn’t kick-catch interference called, especially since they talked about it for a while?
