Quick, five bucks to anyone that knew who Taylor Wyndham was before the year started?
Double-or-nothing for Coleby Clawson?
Oops, sorry folks, you owe the house. Please, pay up.
In what continues to stupefy the annual religious followers, college football is doing more than putting on a show now four weeks into the season—it's just going flat-out Freudian on everyone.
It's so backassward that the last two Heisman Trophy winners have gone down to injury in the first four weeks.
The broken record, as easy as it is to say, must continue to blare for Oklahoma Sooner quarterback, Sam Bradford.
Bradford, along with his would've-been-1st-round-stud tight end Jermaine Gresham wanted to wash that taste of Gatorade of their mouths after last season's national title loss.
Gresham was lost before the season started due to a knee injury a few days before the season-opener.
Then, enter Clawson, a junior linebacker from Wales, Utah (I know, I know). The blitz came and down went Bradford, his arm, and a shot at an undefeated season for OU.
Coming at the hands of, BYU.
BYU, the media's anointed BCS-buster for 2009.
Max Hall, who previously crumbled like the warm, oven-baked chocolate chip mom makes at halftime, came through and led his Cougars on a drive that would stun the college football universe.
Then they lost. They didn't just lose. They were part of the backasswardness.
Florida State came to Provo (A place all those “experts” say is an extremely tough place to play for those outside the Mountain West Conference) and brought the house down on the Cougars, 54-28.
