10 Things We Learned In College, Week 3

1. Oklahoma is the best team in the country.

2. LSU’s defense is good. Like, really good.

3. Ohio State confirmed that they are not going to be the dominant force they have been for the last decade. 2 field goals are all the offense they can muster against a decent-but-not-great Miami team?

4. Stanford doesn’t have to inflict a blowout on someone every week. They will find ways to win games.

5. Notre Dame is neither as good as their preseason rankings indicated, nor as awful as their first two games indicated.

6. Welcome back to earth, Auburn.

7. Florida State may have lost to Oklahoma, but that’s nothing to hang their heads about. The ‘Noles are good.

8. Michigan offensive coordinator Al Borges has done a really nice job tailoring his pro-style offense to spread-style QB Denard Robinson.

9. I’m not half bad at this picks thing. (Yes, I’m reaching here). https://lastwordonsports.com/?p=745 18-3. ESPN should get me a TV show and some mascot heads to wear.

10. Tomato-can games suck. I understand why teams schedule cupcakes early in the season, but that doesn’t mean I have to enjoy the games. Plus, it’s really hard to come up with intelligent internet chatter about South Florida beating Florida A&M 70-17.

About Lindsay Higgins

Lindsay got hooked on football after attending an Indianapolis Colts pre-season game in 2005. (See, pre-season isn't completely useless). The daughter of two Minnesota alums, she spends September through March following the Gophers' football and hockey teams as closely as possible from Connecticut, along with the New York Giants and Montreal Canadiens. She's also a winger on a local women's hockey team, and has a foster elephant in Kenya named Esampu.
