Here is yet another reason why college football is the best game in the world. By all accounts, last week was supposed to be the lousiest slate of games for the 2008 season. But invariably, that’s when we get a couple of surprises.
I went 8-2 last week because I missed Georgia Tech’s impressive win at Boston College and East Carolina’s complete domination of West Virginia. Those two games alone have significantly changed the college football landscape. Georgia Tech now looks like a team that could have a pretty decent season under new coach Paul Johnson. East Carolina can now dare to utter the letters “BCS.” That’s a lot of change for one Saturday.
We now have a record of 16-4 over the first two weeks. Granted, there been a lot of cupcakes served to this point but now we’re finally starting to play some big boy football.
