    In a weird name twist where Georgia is playing Mississippi State the Bulldogs are leading the Bulldogs 38-14.

    Looks like Penn State is testing the Hoosiers, now trailing 20-17 in the 4th quarter. If the Nittany Lions can score to tie or go ahead it might be panic time for Indiana.

    ???

    This last 5-6 minutes will be the test of their season!! If they don't pull it out there will be a logjam behind current 1st place Ohio State with that Michigan game looming ahead. November, the absolute best time for College Football when the weather gets chilly and the races get tight.

    It's going to be a huge letdown if they lose, I really wanted a tilt between them and OSU with both being undefeated

    Unless Texas Tech has a historic meltdown, BYU is proving their schedule played a significant role in their record.

    Just saw highlights of the Nick Singleton 60 yard run, he got a good block that official in the center of the field!! Interesting that the "blocked" player caught him inside the 5.

    Is Gus Johnson the best announcer in all of sports or what??!!

    He's like the poster boy for that saying "When you find something you like to do you never have to work another day in your life." When he's announcing the excitement in his voice is great to hear, he sounds like a true fan who just happens to be in the booth.

    Thinking about the Indiana game makes me wonder what Penn State would have been like if Allar hadn't gotten injured and they had stuck with Franklin. It's hard to figure out how things collapsed like they did when they were so close to playing in the Championship Game last season.

    Getting rid of Franklin and Allar not being the QB (sad it was from injury) made them better. They still messed up the game and have QBs on the roster that look good on combine measurements but really arent that good but are an improvement as low of a bar as that is.

    Some NFL team probably does something really stupid with Allar from combine stats like the Colts did with Richardson but he wasnt very good

    First time in history Indiana won at Penn State. And it took probably the best TD catch of the year to do it.

    Terry Bradshaw was AMAZING!!

    i don't think it would be hyperbolic to say that that was one of the best catches in the history of college football

    not only the sublime vertical, extreme body control and footwork that a ballerina would be envious of, but also what the catch meant for that particular school in an unblemished season

    i think i've watched it 10 times

    and of course the icing was having Gus Johnson on the call, a commentator who -- let's face it -- has no equal

    dude got so excited it sounded like he was speaking in tongues

    sheer greatness, all of it
