Texas A&M leads #13 Texas 10-0 right at the end of the 1st quarter.

Colorado ends up 65-51 over Nebraska in a wild one. Buffs score 34 straight in the 2nd half to overcome a 35-24 Nebraska lead at the half, and then they combine for 30 more points in the final 4:16. 1128 yards combined total offense (610 for Nebraska).

What is up with Nebraska and the second half of games this year? Usually when a team is beaten down, they just roll over and die for a couple of games. Instead, the Huskers showed up big for the first half for almost all of their games before going away. Doesn't really make much sense to me.

Bad pass interference call on a 2 point conversion sets up LSU to tie the game at 14.

I'm assuming Dorsey is hurt? He's getting blown off the ball on almost every play.

And senior backup RB Peyton Hillis goes for a career long 65 yds to give Arkansas the lead again 21-14.

My bad, I guess his weight (238) should have tipped me off, but with less than 60 carries in the past two seasons, he seemed like a backup at first glance.

Whew. Ineligible receiver gets an LSU TD bomb called back. Still 21-21 getting late in the 4th quarter.

LSU gets 20+ yards on a tipped pass, caught by a guy who was sooooo not the intended receiver. Now 3rd & goal from the 6 with 1:10 left to play.

LOL, a ninja timeout costs LSU a TD run by Flynn.

Nicely done.

I'm rooting for Arkansas, but I hate those last-second timeouts. It's worse on field goals, but if LSU hadn't scored now, that'd be the only thing talked about for weeks.

The ninja timeout on a play like that is better than on field goals, because at least you get some information out of it and might take the offense out of their best play for that situation. I still don't like it in practice and hope some coach gets screwed by it, but it makes better strategical sense.

Is the Arkansas QB really that bad that they don't go to the air and basically burn through all that time at the end of regulation?

I mentioned a couple of weeks ago that I could not believe that they would have a QB as bad as Dick starting for a major SEC team. Despite how good McFadden might be, you can't root for a team with a QB that bad.

Nice first down pickup... but the biggest play of your season, and McFadden is standing in the backfield looking for someone to block. Wow.

Anyone else getting the impression that LSU is only bothering to play about half the game? It seems like they only care some of the time and that they're a lot more talented than Arkansas?

How do you not have McFadden on the field on a 2 pt try?
Even though it worked, I just think that's one of the most bizarre personnel decisions I've ever seen.

And it couldn't have happened to a more deserving bunch.

Can we finally drop LSU as the unanimous #1 despite coming into this week with an almost identical resume to Missouri, Ohio State, West Virginia, and Arizona State?

Probably ... but only because at least one of those teams plays in a conference worth noticing on a regular basis.
