College Football Saturday Review

Saturday Aftermath
-79 North (NT)

Never made it into the game, but I did make it to Applebees, Pat White threw five touchdowns and coincedentally I saw about five plays while drawing the ire of the natives assembled at Applebees while I tryed to change the channel to find the the Michigan game


Pitt lost, Michigan lost, Virginia Tech lost, WVU wins, could not imagine a better saturday especially considering I cleaned up with my Chiken-Fil-A play of the year


Overall I picked up seven units yesterday

Sunday Night Future WVU Opponent Game of the Week

1 unit Colorado -11.5 WIN


Saturday- 5-2 +7 units
Sunday- 1-0 +1 unit
YTD- 10-4 +12 units


From the wires....

Nebraska won its season opener for the 23rd straight year, the longest streak in the nation, but this victory marked a new beginning for a program in rebuilding mode after unraveling under Bill Callahan


Pat White threw a career-high five touchdown passes, set personal marks for attempts and completions and No. 8 West Virginia beat Villanova 48-21 Saturday


PITTSBURGH -- A whistle sounded prematurely, stripping Bowling Green of a possible game-winning touchdown and giving a second chance to Pittsburgh, a Top 25 team that probably didn't deserve such a break

So Bowling Green went out and forced yet another mistake that assured Pitt of a loss the Panthers never seemed to believe might happen until the game was over.
Tyler Sheehan ran 11 yards for a touchdown on a quarterback draw early in the fourth quarter, two plays after Pittsburgh's fourth turnover, and Bowling Green rallied for a 27-17 upset of the No. 25 Panthers on Saturday


It never mattered as Pitt was dealt its worst upset home loss since a 35-26 defeat in 2001 to Division I-A neophyte South Florida.
