G’s Evalution or Week 4 Top 261

What a day of football yesterday. Yes, there were a number of Vegas upsets like Oklahoma losing to Kansas St, ULM beating Louisiana, and James Madison topping App St (what a roller coaster their season has been). Yes, there were some Upsets (reminder capital Upset means a team from a lower level beat a team from a higher level, e.g., FCS beating Group of 5 or Power 5, Group of 5 beating Power 5). In fact, there were 5: UCF (favored) beat Georgia Tech, Cincinnati (favored) beat Indiana, Miami OH beating Northwestern, Middle Tennessee taking down Miami FL, and FCS Sacramento St demolishing Colorado St. In fact, let’s compare Kansas teams to Colorado teams. Colorado St lost to the FCS team 41-10! Not good for the state or the Mountain West, but big brother in the Pac 12 lost to trying-to-leave-the-Pac12-if-the-state-of-California-will-let-them UCLA 45-17. 2 games with a combined score of 86-27. On the other hand, let’s hear it for Kansas: the Jayhawks beat Duke (both teams undefeated coming into the game) 35-27 and Kansas St dropped Oklahoma 41-34 – combined 76-61 and 2 wins over previously unbeaten teams. The sunflowers are smiling this morning. In the FCS, Steph F Austin played, I guess a junior high school, in Warner (not a member of Division I) by a sweeping score of 98-0. The gained 599 yards, created 4 turnovers, and had the ball for only 20:33. Yes, they scored 98 points in 20 minutes of offense. Granted, 2 fumble returns and a safety helped. When they scored the last time (6:17 remaining), they went for 2, but failed. The last 100-point game was in 1968 when Houston edged out Tulsa 100-6. Maybe next time, Lumberjacks.

…..

In today’s ranking we’ve had quite a bit of movement with Oklahoma, Arkansas, and Miami FL all losing. We have our first Group of 5 team in the top 25 with James Madison (3-0/20) joining the ranks. Kansas (4-0/15) continues to surprise. And we have a new number one. Georgia (4-0/2) struggled against G5 Kent St (1-3/79) while Alabama (4-0/1) slammed Vanderbilt (3-2/64). If the season ended today, the playoff would look like this: Alabama vs Michigan (4-0/4) and Georgia vs Minnesota (4-0/3). I’ll talk about the 12-team playoff in tonight’s G’s Explanation. With conference games starting to take over the schedule, prepare for a number of shifts in the coming weeks.

…..

Thanks for reading and sharing. Here is the entire list from Alabama to San Diego (1-3/261). Enjoy and I’ll see you tonight.
