Things I Learned About College Football This Weekend

I learned several things about college football this weekend. I think Oregon and West Virginia should have to play each other in the National Championship game just to see how many points would be scored. West Virginia beat Texas 48-45 and Oregon beat Washington 52-21. These were both nationally ranked opponents. I also think that the Heisman Committee should just go ahead and give the Heisman Trophy to Geno Smith, the QB from West Virginia. He's got the numbers and his team has the national ranking to back up my claim that he is the best player in the nation. I also learned that the South Carolina Gamecocks are good and this is probably the best South Carolina team they have had since George Rogers led the way in the late 1970's-early 1980's. They have arguably the best RB in the nation, Marcus Lattimore (provided he can stay healthy), and a QB Connor Shaw who poses a dual threat as a runner and a passer. They beat the #5 Georgia Bulldogs 35-7 with an ease that was almost scary for their future opponents. Steve Spurrier may be a jackass but at least he is a funny jackass. Alabama is still #1 in my ratings but they play boring "old man football" that is very beatable. #3 Florida State and #4 LSU both lost this weekend but it will hurt LSU far worse because they play in a much tougher SEC.
