    Five in a row now. Can't we fatten up on a cupcake for once?

    I just checked, and USC doesn’t play Iowa this year (Hawkeyes get UCLA instead, fortunately).

    But the challenge still remains for the Trojans: besides the matchups with Michigan and Penn State, they need to bring it against the multitude of meh teams in the B1G.

    The squiggles in the letters.

    The way Clemson is going, might not be that far off

    They look normal to me. Not sure what you're seeing. The things above the letters?

    Maybe. It looked like they were going thru the letters, either thru the L or U, like accents.

    The air vents in modern helmets can make some designs look weird. Viewed from a certain angle, these WVU helmets make you think the eastern panhandle invaded Maryland.

    Yeah, I think it's just the air vents like @dixiehack said.

    At least, not with Brian Kelly as coach.

    The Vortex of Domination was 2-3 vs. P4 completion this week despite playing every game at home or at a neutral site.

    Quality win for Georgia; any win by Vanderbilt is an accomplishment.

    Horrible loss by Florida; bad loss by A&M; toss-up loss by LSU.

    And it cleaned up against FCS and G5 opponents, no one was challenged except South Carolina, who probably should have lost to ODU.

    I love college football but there are so many garbage games in Week 1.
