In a change from the norm, we have multiple NFL-related headlines, a FCS-FBS unevenness over the issue of headsets, and 87 minutes of our life we'll never get back spent watching the Connor Stalions documentary
A train derailed in Boulder, Colorado, earlier this week. The metaphor is un-apt.
The Buffaloes' skill players fended off a hard-fought test from North Dakota State on opening night, ensuring you'll be able to get Nebraska next week at a good number - but doing so would involve actually trusting Nebraska, so caveat emptor.
North Carolina won a battle of some of FBS's best backfields in weather-y Minneapolis 19-17 over the Golden Gophers (who missed two field goals), but lost QB Max Johnson.
Utah, Missouri, Arkansas and Kansas all blitzed non-FBS teams.
