Revisiting a Weird Weekend in Waco
So . . . Saturday evening was weird. And no, I’m not just talking about the lack of defense or the crazy swings in momentum, but I’ll get to all of that because that was definitely weird too. What I’m referring to are the series of developments preceding the game that culminated into an unexpected shootout with those winless Baylor Bears. I didn’t know whether to laugh or cringe, and the ball-game had me feeling no different. The word on Baker Mayfield seems to finally be spreading across the country. Look, the guy can trash talk with the best of ‘em. Of course this isn’t news to you, Sooner fans, but you’ll have to forgive the rest of the college football world for their inability to keep up.

Kentucky fails to snap 30-year losing streak to Florida in the most crushing way possible
Tyrie Cleveland stiff-arms Derrick Baity Jr as he makes his way into the end zone. The only thing that stopped Kentucky from snapping a 30-year losing streak to Florida was a last-second holding penalty and a coverage blown so badly there was almost no way the Wildcats would make the same mistake twice. Instead of grabbing a victory over the No. 20 Gators for the first time since 1986, Kentucky crumbled twice in key plays coming out of a timeout and let UF walk out of Lexington with a 28-27 victory that should even have fans in Gainesville blushing.

Purdue defense shows strength again, until tiring late in loss
Through two-and-a-half quarters on Saturday evening, Purdue’s defense had matched Michigan’s, perhaps exceeded it. “We did a good job getting in there more,” Coach Jeff Brohm said, noting Purdue’s four sacks and eight tackles for loss. The Boilermakers, however, were outstanding early, limiting Michigan to only seven first-half points and 131 yards.
