#18 Oklahoma down 13-0 to Kansas

Near the end of the 1st quarter, Johnny Drama has nearly 200 yards passing and two INTs. Gotta be a real fun ride being a tamu fan.

ANOTHER Manziel interception, this time in the Auburn red zone. Sloppy game ..

I wouldn't go that far yet. Who knows? As long as they keep winning, we could have another all-SEC championship in the BCS.

OTOH, this Barn/tamu game today... The first one to 70 wins??

I think we're done with Johnny Football because I think they will lose to AU today. Regardless, I think with our improvements on defense, you give Eddie Jackson a full season of experience and five week to prepare, I think we hold them under 25 and win a rematch pretty easily.

Auburn and Iowa take the lead!

Johnny Drama is trying to rely on his magic too much. Already has two INTs and is running for his life a bit too much. Come on...this is *U. If this is keeps up, the barn does actually have a shot in this game. More than I thought they would.

You could be right, its a home game and they've lost to all ranked teams @ Kyle Field since joining the SEC. So much for the "12th man".

Iowa is 3-0 vs last 3 top 5 teams...interesting.

http://thegazette.com/2013/10/17/iowa-3-0-against-its-last-three-top-5-football-foes/

2010: Iowa 37, No. 5 Michigan State 6 in Iowa City. The Spartans entered the game with an 8-0 record. They finished 11-2.
2009: Iowa 21, No. 5 Penn State 10 in State College. The Nittany Lions were 3-0. They went on to an 11-2 season.
2008: Iowa 24, No. 3 Penn State 23 in Iowa City. Penn State went on to finish — you guessed it — 11-2.

That catch by Stanford's Whitfield in the endzone was insane! Catch of the year!

The UCLA at Stanford game sounds like a home game for UCLA. Huge crowd roar when they just scored, and then they belted out the fight song. Gotta say, I didn't even know there were many Stanford football fans til the 2012 Fiesta Bowl!

Jesus. Are their offenses that good or is the defense that bad??

 

[PhillyGirl]

The TAMU game: it's the Manziel/Evans show ..

 

[PhillyGirl]

Ohio State and Stanford poised to win .. TAMU pulling away. Mehhhh

 

[PhillyGirl]

Manziel injured. Grabbed his shoulder. And now he's down on his back.

It's his throwing arm.

He is now on the bench. They were holding towels over him a moment ago.

EDIT: just tried to throw a ball but pulled back and winced. Uh oh!

 

[RollTideRandy]

Uh-Oh...aTm now has to depend on their defense to win this game. :nightmare:

 

[Brandon Van de Graaff]

Looks like Johnny Football found a cortisone shot under the stands... Hope it works...

And, predictably, Auburn is running all over them! Teehee.

He's back out.
