Some thoughts on Week 3 in college football...

Talented QB, but cannot stop turning the ball over.

Every game he has 2-4 plays where he just genuinely starts hyperventilating & panicking, & just throws the ball all over the field with reckless abandon. And it's normally for no apparent reason.

He's got some kinda performance anxiety or PTSD or something, because he has these bizarre segments in games where he thinks he's being chased by like 25 defenders.

If he would just calm the fuxk down, he'd be a top 10 QB.

it's a very thin line between being good and elite - and it really does come down to a few plays every game

- Huge early win for Will Stein and Kentucky, who went into Kyle Field and out-played Texas A@M. Kenny Minchey played a solid, steady game behind center in leading the Wildcats to a convincing 31-21 win. Meanwhile, I think Marcell Reed is facing some heat from the Aggie fan base, even after leading them to a playoff birth last year. From what I saw, the heavy losses on both sides of the line of scrimmage have been a problem for Mike Elko. Regardless, he hasn't been accurate or protected the ball well enough.

Forgot to add, listened to Elko error presser postgame and he mentioned the pressure getting to Reed and how its bothering him, spoke at length about it and he might be cooked mentally with new OC and such.. Said he was pressing and hearing the noise outside.. NOT GOOD

LSU and Texas A&M could grab spots over ACC/b12 number 2s. Notre Dame could drop 3 games.
 
If we are going to go portal shopping again for a QB, Kamario Taylor for Miss St is at the top of the list. Malik Washington for Maryland is probably #2. Doubt their coach survives this season. Taylor is a home grown kid and will be a Gawd there by end of the season. Doubt he would leave.

Appreciate the writeup but very SEC biased. There were a lot of other interesting games going on. But if you want to focus on that fading conference, my take is that most of the SEC teams looked pedestrian yesterday. FSU scared Bama. TAMU played soft and lost to what would be a mid-ACC team if they played on our conferenec. The Mateer machine at Oklahoma is a lemon. Georgia hasn't played anyone with a pulse. NC State literally gave the game away. I could not believe my eyes, it was definitely worse than the Ga Tech fumble.

Meanwhile around footballville, I thought the SMU v Louisville game was amazing. Some great plays and hard hits. Notre Dame didn't look any better than us, especially in the first half, and they were playing against a much weaker opponent than Wake in Michigan State. CJ Carr is as overhyped as that Penn State QB from last year. Teams have figured him out. Two games I missed that I'd be interested in hearing opinions on were UVA losing to WVU and Texas Tech in a nailbiter with Houston. Is Houston finally emerging? Would be awesome as they'd take talent away from LSU and other SEC schools nearby if they became a serious program.

Another thing not being mentioned about Doreon and NC State is that they were up 24-7 midway through the 3rd. So not only did they have that disastrous game losing play, they blew a 3 score led as well. Don't know how he survives that.

True.
In that regard they are very dangerous.

But we will truly know what they are made of once their conference schedule get's going.
That stretch of @ Nebraska, O$U, @ Michigan is not going to be easy at all.
