The Bottom 10 of College Football: Irish Eyes Are Crying

The only week two match up of ranked teams is Alabama coming north to thump Penn State.

Poor Penn State is no longer the Lions of the seventies or eighties, but merely a ghost of great Lion's team past. 

But there will be a plethora of pitiful teams bumbling and fumbling it out this weekend.

Seldom do such rotten teams as Notre Dame and Michigan get a chance to embarrass themselves on prime time. 

Enjoy the game like one would a terrible and cheap horror film. Think of it as something like Freddy vs Jason 22 if that movie was made by a very bad director with a very limited budget.

Notre Dame [0-1]

Doesn't NBC have better ways to spend nine million dollars than dropping them on this sad spectacle in green? 

The Irish underestimated the Leprechaun Lou's scorned son Skip Holtz and embarrassed themselves in their home opener.

The Irish, with their turnovers, penalties, poor throws and general bumbling looked like they skipped summer practice.  

And benching Crist beneath Touchdown Jesus can only bring bad juju to the Irish.

Miami [0-1]

Like WC Fields, all in all Al Golden would rather be at Temple than mired in Miami.

Still the ugliest things about the game had to be those Terrapin terrible rags.   .

Duke [0-1]

Being bitten by the Richmond Spiders is a sorry way to start another long losing season.

The State of Oregon [0-2]

The Ducks received their second straight SEC smack-down while the Beavers were even worse, choking against sorry Sacramento State.  

Indiana [0-1]

Being bopped by Ball State is just a warm up before the big boys of the Big 12 start bashing the Hoosiers again.

Can the Big Ten trade the Hoosiers for the Oklahoma Sooners?

The State of New Mexico [0-2]

The Billy the Kid State just can't seem to get football off the ground.

Perhaps it has something to do with Roswell.

The Big 12

Big 12 Commissioner Dan Beebe seems like he's smiling, standing on the deck of the sinking Titanic saying it's just a small leak.

Texas greed began the Big 12 disintegration and it looks like Texas is trying to lead Texas Tech, Oklahoma, and Oklahoma State on the wagon train west.

The NY Post reports the Big East is considering a play for Kansas, Kansas State, and Missouri if the Big East doesn't merge with the ACC after they lose a team or two to the SEC.

Confusing?

At least its simple for Iowa State who seems most likely to miss the dance because they can not get a date. 

And the Big Ten ought to throw some big bucks at Oklahoma before they ride off into the sunset. 

Colorado [0-1]

Hammered by the the Hawaii Rainbow Warriors is an exciting way to start the sojourn to the soon to be Sweet PAC Sixteen

One wonders if the PAC Powers had second thoughts about bringing the bad Buffalo's west?

Idaho [0-1]

Being bowled over by Bowling Green is a vicious way for a Vandal to begin yet another long, losing season.

Next week, the beatings continue with the North Dakota Fighting Sioux taking some Vandal scalps.

Georgia {0-1]

At 0-2, Mark Richt will be blue but at least he isn't in Miami. Though he might soon be sipping brews with Mike Leach in Key West.

Not a bad plan actually.

Terrible Game of the Week

San Jose State [0-1] @ UCLA [0-1]

Terrible Opening Acts

Florida follows Florida Atlantic with UAB and stays in the Top Twenty, yet BYU beats Mississippi and moves on to take on Texas and remains unranked. 

Something is wrong with that.
