North Carolina Shocks Another Team

Many people wonder who this college football team is from North Carolina. Butch Davis took over a program that has been struggling, but no more it seems. North Carolina have been one of the surprise teams this year so far and added another win to their resume as they beat UCONN by a score of 38-12. This puts the Tarheels at 4-1 this season and a good chance at a bowl game which is something that Tarheel fans have not seen in awhile.

BYU Extends Winning Streak With Win Over Utah State

The BYU Cougars who are ranked in the Top ten are not use to giving up points, but it did not really matter as they easily beat Utah State by a score of 34-14. Max Hall threw for over 300 yards and two touchdowns to pace the Cougars to the easy win.

This was the 15th straight win for BYU which right now is the longest streak in College Football. Utah State became the first team to score on BYU this year, but really was no challenge for the Cougars who will be heard from this year.

Utah Gets Field Goal To Avoid Oregon State Upset

After beating USC a week ago Utah knew they would have their hands full with the Oregon State Beavers and that is exactly what happen. Utah's quarterback Brian Johnson needed to make one heck of a fourth quarter comeback to help Utah beat Oregon State by a score of 31-28. Louie Sakoda kick the winning field goal for Utah who did not want to be another Top 25 victim that fell at the hands of an underdog.

For Oregon State they played well, but really had no answers for Utah's Brian Johnson in the fourth quarter. Both teams for the most part played little defense, but when Utah needed to get a stop they did. Both teams provided an entertaining game and it is a shame one team had to lose.

South Florida Loses To Pittsburgh

It seems that every time that South Florida gets ranked highly they stumble and get beat. Last night on their home field it was to the Pitt Panthers who did the trick. Pittsburgh defense held the South Florida Bulls scoreless in the first half and held on to a 26-21 win. LeSean McCoy ran for two touchdowns and Bill Stull threw for another to pace the Panthers who now stand at 5-1 on the season.

For the longest time the Pittsburgh college football program has been on the down slope, but it looks like they could be finally headed in the right direction. For South Florida it was another tough loss they had to endure.

Vince Young Back At Practice

This will be interesting week at Titans camp as Vince Young will be returning to start practicing again. Will he get his job back? I personally think he maynot get his job back right now. It looks like Kerry Collins has the job and it is his to lose. I know what many people think that you should not lose your job to an injury, but this time it could happen.

Many people wonder where Vince Young's head is and is he really ready to return or not. I guess only time will tell and we will have to wait and see how everything works out for him. For now though the job is Kerry Collins.

College Football Season Is Here

Well the first week is in the books and the teams that we thought would dominate did. Georgia, USC, LSU, Ohio State and Florida won their games easily. East Carolina and UCLA pulled upsets while the Michigan Wolverines started the season with a loss to Utah. I'll bet that is not sitting to well in Michigan right now.

Injuries were also something that hit many College Football teams as well this weekend. Ohio State watched Heisman candidate Chris Wells suffer a foot injury which could sideline against the USC Trojans in two weeks. This season in College football should be very interested indeed.

I look for many upsets this year and I think it will come down to the wire once again for the National Championship. There is a lot of teams that are very good so we will have to wait and see who does well and who does not.
