Black Saturday

Black Saturday

Yesterday the college football landscape was turned upside down after eight teams in the top 25 were defeated and five of those upsets were by unranked teams. It appears the major upset Oregon State had over USC last Thursdy night was foreshadowing for things to come. The two big upsets from yesterday was #4 Florida losing in the Swamp to Ole Miss and #3 Georgia losing at home to #8 Alabama. These two teams were expected to be contenders for the National Championship, but now before we even get to October it seems their hopes are done. Other teams falling yesterday were #9 Wisconsin, #16 Wake Forest, #20 Clemson, #22 Illinois, #23 East Carolina, and #24 TCU. This season is setting up to be one of the most exciting and interesting in recent years and I for one love the parity of NCAA football these days.
