    Utah-Washington has been a helluva game.

    Had it on earlier, just switched back on your advice. Hey, a game involving West Coast teams without pinball scoring and Gus Johnson, too.

    The Foreman kid is a beast RB for Texas.

    Want to know why Notre Dame is going down the toilet? Fourth and no more than six inches, Irish throw a swing pass behind the sticks to the sideline and get tackled for a loss.

    Yeah, just switched to see what Washington is all about.

    Can't describe how relieved I am that Little Brother is back in its place for now. I only heard "There's a problem with the snap!?" about 50 times this weekend.

    Impressive throw by Utes QB. 24-24.

    Replay woes aren't limited to the NFL.

    Texas-Baylor game, the Baylor QB scrambles for a first down and just gets clobbered helmet-to-helmet. I mean, the QB's face mask halfway caves in from the hit.

    No foul on the play. Then they stop the game because the "previous play is under further review."

    After literally 4 or 5 minutes of replays and inane announcer speculation, the ref finally declares, "No. 2 on Texas did not hit with his helmet."

    WTF?

    They also missed a huge head shot by a Michigan player in the fourth quarter because he was blocking on offense and I think there was some disbelief that an offensive player could do that. Targeting is basically a pure guess intended solely to ensure that the college football hierarchy can say it is doing something about head injuries.

    Bevo will never know how good it had it until it leaves for another conference.

    Helluva pooch punt by Washington there. Pinned Utah on it's own 1. We'll find out a lot about both teams on this drive.
