Saturday mid day thoughts

Holy cow. Ball State nearly upset Nebraska before falling 41-40. Ball State is the juggernaut that squeaked by Navy last week. I would imagine that Bill Callahan now is paying someone to dress like him and start his car for him at this point. Boone State is presently leading Sand Pirate U as well, adding to the 'We're mediocre' motto that seems to permeate most of the Big 12 this year.

Nationally, Louisville rolled over and lost to Syracuse today, 38-35. The Cardinal D is atrocious, but we knew that already. The fact that the Orange scored more points today than their previous three games combined is just affirmation of that. I'm a fan of Steve Kragthorpe, who did wonders for Tulsa U, but I have to think the L'ville fan base is less than happy after this loss and the prior week loss to intra-Commonwealth rival Kentucky.

Michigan State turned the ball over on their own 9, which allowed the FishEaters to score an offensive touchdown for the first time this year.
