Recap of College Football’s First Big Day!

It’s that time again! Back to college football, the mascots, the fight songs, the Cinderlla stories (too bad Appalacian State couldn’t make it two years in a row), the upsets, the painted faces, the tailgate parties. It’s a great time of year for football fans around the nation!

So how did this year’s first weekend of college football start out? Quick recap of the biggies..

(1) Georgia 45 – Georgia Souther 21 (no surprises there)

(2) Ohio St. 43 – Youngstown St. 0 (embarrassing that Ohio St. plays Youngstown at all)

(3) USC 52 – Virginia 7 (Go Trojans! – I’m a biased Southern California native, what can I say!!)

(4) Oklahoma 57 – Chattanooga 2 (Isn’t that kind of weird to put on your resume? B.A. from Chattanooga?)

(5) Florida 56 – Hawaii 10 (that’s a long way for the Rainbows to travel to get stomped)

(6) Missouri 52 – Illinois 41 (too close for comfort)

(7) LSU 41 – Appalacian St. 13 (no Cinderella sequel)

(8) West Virginia 48 – Villanova 21 (nice game by WV QB White – 5 TDs today…settin’ some records early)

(9) Clemson 10 – (24) Alabama 34 (UPSET OF THE WEEK – ROLLLLL TIDE!!!!)

(10) Auburn 34 – Louisiana-Monroe 0 (snoozefest)

There you have it folks, the first week of football wrapped up in a nice little bow for your reading enjoyment! Two weeks til the BIG GAME – Ohio St. v. USC! Email The Block FM and tell us your predictions….buzz@theblockfm.com!
