What is Waco Kid's Weekly College Football Review? It is an ongoing weekly review of all things College Football!!

Each week upcoming games can be discussed and predictions made, name-calling after victories and general all-around college football discussion! Each week will be closed out by the next Monday and a new thread opened for the current college football schedule for each week.

Rules -
"Rules?? We don't need no stinkin’ rules!"
Actually we do.

WKWCFR rule 1
"Lies, damn lies and statistics!"
British Prime Minister Benjamin Disraeli

If you quote a stat, record, 3rd down conversion rate, an all-time mark or the number of jock straps an 85-man team needs ...
Post it! If you can't post a link to it, it's bogus!

What's valid in the Internet age? Just about anything! Any of the major sports publications, local newspapers, any of the big networks and official school and NCAA sites just to cover the big ones.

WKWCFR rule 2
Predictions must be posted 1 day in advance! If you haven't read the sports page and figgured out who's going to win by the day before ya never will!
Must be time stamped before Midnight the day before game-day, for any weekly games Thur-Sun on the current weekly schedule.

So there you have it, pretty basic! You can post on general topics of your favorite teams regardless of that week's opponent. Just remember WKWCFR rule 1

LA Tech 20 2 Boise St 49

this game was on Tuesday, a bit late for predictions according to WKWCFR rule 2!

Real shocker here, Boise won. The recap said Boise actually got caught off-guard on an onside kick. Imagine that!
La Tech was offsides, nice try though.

Thursday

No. 16 Florida State at N.C. State, 7:30 p.m. - Florida State

NC St. is 5-2, at home they are capable of upsetting Free Shoes U, if Jimbo wants to be like Bowden he wins this game and he will with help from Stoops 3 on defense.

cptjohnstone · 10-27-2010, 10:47 PM

there not enough tv's in my house. I am watching 2 tonight, world series, OKC Thunder, tomorrow world series, FSU vs NCS + alot of good shows on regular tv

The_Waco_Kid · 10-28-2010, 06:43 PM

i can relate to that! my hdtv doesn't have PIP, thought it did but apparently not! one of these days i'll go get a cheapo small tv and hook it up so i can have two going in my den room at once.

16 Florida St 24 N.C. St 28

FSU dropped the ball here, literally. The defense could have sealed it but gave up a 4th down score then the offense fumbled the rock at the 9 with 48 seconds left. Game over.

The_Waco_Kid · 10-29-2010, 08:42 PM

Saturday’s Games

No. 1 Oregon at No. 24 Southern Cal, 8 p.m. - Oregon

Oregon is an offensive monster, too much for USC's defense.

No. 3 Auburn at Mississippi, 6 p.m. - Auburn

No time for a letdown now Gene, 'Ol Miss sucks and you have the best QB in the SEC.

No. 4 TCU at UNLV, 11 p.m. - TCU

TCU rolls toward big showdown in the Land of Morom.

No. 5 Michigan State at No. 18 Iowa, 3:30 p.m. - Iowa

Sorry Sparty going with "no one gets out of the Big Ten unbeaten" theory.

No. 7 Missouri at No. 14 Nebraska, 3:30 p.m. - Nebraska

Mizzou falls flat after big W over Zerou and gets taken out by the Children of the Corn.

No. 8 Utah at Air Force, 7:30 p.m. - Utah

Utes better not look ahead to showdown with TCU next week, Air Force is a solid team but Utes have too much talent.

No. 10 Ohio State at Minnesota, 8 p.m. - Ohio State

Buckeyes can't blow this one, can they?

No. 11 Oklahoma vs. Colorado, 9:15 p.m. - Oklahoma

Big Game Bozo doesn't like the altitude in Boulder, take a deep breath and get back on track Bob.

No. 13 Stanford at Washington, 7 p.m. - Stanford

Harbaugh rolls over Husky team with lots of fleas and an overrated QB.

No. 15 Arizona at UCLA, 3:30 p.m. - Arizona

Stoops 2 needs this one to set up monster three game run that will define PAC 10 race.

No. 17 South Carolina vs. Tennessee, 12:21 p.m. - South Carolina

Steve Superior needs to show Dooley he's still .. Steve Superior.

No. 19 Arkansas vs. Vanderbilt, 7 p.m. - Arkansas

Vandy sucks and Boss Hogg knows offense so light 'em up Hoggheads.

No. 20 Oklahoma State at Kansas State, Noon - Oklahoma State

K State is back (Snyder should win Coach of the Year) but cowpokes need to "Be a Man" and win. Just keep Blackmon away from Dallas cops.

No. 22 Miami at Virginia, Noon - Miami

Virginia has lost to every D1 team they've played, don't be the first victim Canes!

No. 23 Mississippi State vs. Kentucky, 7 p.m. - Kentucky

UK is due to get a big win and Miss St. could get caught looking ahead.

No. 25 Baylor at Texas, 7 p.m. - Texas

UT has enough speed on defense to contain Griffin and I'll bet Mack lit up Horns this week in practice.

Sir Lancelot · 10-29-2010, 09:08 PM

No. 11 Oklahoma vs. Colorado, 9:15 p.m. - Oklahoma

Big Game Bozo doesn't like the altitude in Boulder, take a deep breath and get back on track Bob.
****************************** ******************

The sooners have been out to lunch in the second half most of the year. With this game not ending until about midnight Norman time, they are in danger of literally sleeping through the last quarter.

But, OU by 27 anyway.

SL

The_Waco_Kid · 10-29-2010, 09:18 PM

Well good of you to show up SL, finally!

let's hope yer sooners show up!
by the way who's the hottie in your avatar pic??

cptjohnstone · 10-29-2010, 10:52 PM

No. 20 Oklahoma State at Kansas State, Noon - Oklahoma State

K State is back (Snyder should win Coach of the Year) but cowpokes need to "Be a Man" and win. Just keep Blackmon away from Dallas cops.

How about Gundy for Coach of the Year? pre-season predictions were 5/6th in the South

Blackmon had a 6:30am weigh in or something, hence doing 92 in a 60mph zone. Stillwater is exactly 4 hours away from Dallas, I should know. And there was alot of talk he did not have one drink. At least Deion was not there

We will be fine w/o him, Kendall Hunter will have field day

The_Waco_Kid · 10-30-2010, 11:47 AM

Gundy would be a good pick a few years ago when he first brought OSU up to speed, not this year. OSU had some questions especially at QB but they were certainly not an unknown quantity and they had talent, like Hunter. OSU went 9-4 last year while K St. went 6-6 and not many (if any) would have pegged K St. to be 5-2 at this point, OSU to be 6-1 at this point isn't a big shocker to me at least.

Sparty's coach Dantonio and Baylor's Art Briles are also good possibilities. there's still a lot of ball left so plenty of time to see how things pan out.

Boltfan · 10-30-2010, 05:36 PM

Hot Damn!!!!

SDSU Aztecs are BOWL ELIGIBLE!!!! Holy Shit! First time since 1998. I still have delusions they could beat TCU but hell the game could be competitive.

#7 in passing
http://www.ncaa.com/sports/m-footbl/...d-passing.html
#2 passing yards per game
http://www.ncaa.com/sports/m-footbl/...-per-game.html

yea Kendall is good #3 in the nation
http://www.ncaa.com/sports/m-footbl/...d-rushing.html

but what about Blackmon #1 in the nation in receiving yards
http://www.ncaa.com/sports/m-footbl/...d-rushing.html

last but not least Dan Bailey our field goal kicker #2 in field goals
http://www.ncaa.com/sports/m-footbl/...eld-goals.html

and #2 in scoring behind Blackmon
http://www.ncaa.com/sports/m-footbl/...d-scoring.html

in the preseason, they did when Weedon was an untested QB, he's certainly not now.

The_Waco_Kid · 10-31-2010, 02:20 PM

No. 1 Oregon at No. 24 Southern Cal, 8 p.m. - Oregon

Oregon is an offensive monster, too much for USC's defense.

1 Oregon 53 24 USC 32

Oregon is the best team in the nation as it stands now. way too much for USC's defense. They will run out the PAC 10.

No. 3 Auburn at Mississippi, 6 p.m. - Auburn

No time for a letdown now Gene, 'Ol Miss sucks and you have the best QB in the SEC.

3 Auburn 51 Mississippi 31

Aubie controls it's own destiny in the SEC. only Nicky Satan can stop the Gene and Gus show.

No. 4 TCU at UNLV, 11 p.m. - TCU

TCU rolls toward big showdown in the Land of Morom.

4 TCU 48 UNLV 6

No letdown here, now TCU can focus on the big showdown with the Utes. Go Froggies!!

No. 5 Michigan State at No. 18 Iowa, 3:30 p.m. - Iowa

Sorry Sparty going with "no one gets out of the Big Ten unbeaten" theory.

5 Michigan St 6 18 Iowa 37

Told ya no one runs the table in the Big Ten, now there's a 4 way tie and no conference title game (yet) so perhaps they'll flip a coin.

No. 7 Missouri at No. 14 Nebraska, 3:30 p.m. - Nebraska

Mizzou falls flat after big W over Zerou and gets taken out by the Children of the Corn.

7 Missouri 17 14 Nebraska 31

Helu set NU record for rushing yards in a game and quarter, good timing with Martinez out with leg injury. early reports are a bruise so bugeaters dodge a potential disaster and roll on.

No. 8 Utah at Air Force, 7:30 p.m. - Utah

Utes better not look ahead to showdown with TCU next week, Air Force is a solid team but Utes have too much talent.

8 Utah 28 Air Force 23

this was a solid win against a good Air Force team, now Utes can think about big showdown with Froggies.

No. 10 Ohio State at Minnesota, 8 p.m. - Ohio State

Buckeyes can't blow this one, can they?

10 Ohio St 52 Minnesota 10

Nope, not this time. Just what Sweatervest needed, a strong showing against a bad team without a real head coach.

No. 11 Oklahoma vs. Colorado, 9:15 p.m. - Oklahoma

Big Game Bozo doesn't like the altitude in Boulder, take a deep breath and get back on track Bob.

Colorado 10 11 Oklahoma 43

Big Game Bozo gets back on track for possible showdown with the Children of the Corn. Just like the old Big 8 days. oh, just don't get whacked by OSU Bob.

No. 13 Stanford at Washington, 7 p.m. - Stanford

Harbaugh rolls over Husky team with lots of fleas and an overrated QB.

13 Stanford 41 Washington 0

give it to Harbaugh his teams don't let bad teams hang around sniffing an upset. too bad that Oregon game didn't work out Jimmy.

No. 15 Arizona at UCLA, 3:30 p.m. - Arizona

Stoops 2 needs this one to set up monster three game run that will define PAC 10 race.

15 Arizona 29 UCLA 21

Stoops 2 get a win, closer than you might expect but win he did. Now comes the real test. U up for Jimmy H and the Cardinal, Stoops?

No. 17 South Carolina vs. Tennessee, 12:21 p.m. - South Carolina

Steve Superior needs to show Dooley he's still .. Steve Superior.

Tennessee 24 17 S Carolina 38

Yep he's still Steve Superior, Dooley isn't Vince yet. Carolina appears to be in the driver's seat for SEC East.

No. 19 Arkansas vs. Vanderbilt, 7 p.m. - Arkansas

Vandy sucks and Boss Hogg knows offense so light 'em up Hoggheads.

Vanderbilt 14 19 Arkansas 49

Boss Hogg rolls over Vandy. Hoggs already lost to Aubie so SEC West title not realistic unless Aubie totally folds. Don't bet on it.

No. 20 Oklahoma State at Kansas State, Noon - Oklahoma State

K State is back (Snyder should win Coach of the Year) but cowpokes need to "Be a Man" and win. Just keep Blackmon away from Dallas cops.

20 Okla St 24 Kansas St 14

Less offense than expected from cowpokes but results are all that counts.

No. 22 Miami at Virginia, Noon - Miami

Virginia has lost to every D1 team they've played, don't be the first victim Canes!

22 Miami (FL) 19 Virginia 24

Tough break Canes, Harris got hurt and down you go.

No. 23 Mississippi State vs. Kentucky, 7 p.m. - Kentucky

UK is due to get a big win and Miss St. could get caught looking ahead.

Kentucky 17 23 Miss St 24

State keeps focus and takes out the Kats. Oh well it's basketball season in the bluegrass now.

No. 25 Baylor at Texas, 7 p.m. - Texas

UT has enough speed on defense to contain Griffin and I'll bet Mack lit up Horns this week in practice.

25 Baylor 30 Texas 22

UT couldn't catch the plague let alone a pass. This one was not Gilbert Grape's fault. Where's Jordan Shipley when you need him? in the NFL.

What's UT's problem? it's not talent it's attitude. this team showed signs of entitlement, too much recent sucess went to their heads.
