BCS Top 25 Week 10 – “What We Learned”


College football Week 10 scores are in after a wild weekend that saw more BCS Top 25 teams lose than ever before.

Although not in the BCS Top 25, and possibly not in anyone’s top 50, an honorable mention goes to the Michigan Wolverines who connected on a two-pointer in the 3rd OT to come away with a 67-65 win against Illinois.

Here’s a rundown of the BCS Top 25 scores and “What We Learned”.

No.1 Oregon vs. Washington. Ducks win 53-16.

What did we learn?

1)    The Ducks need permission to run out of the tunnel.

What did we learn?

1)    Cam Newton deserves to get paid.

2)    The Heisman Trust Fund has already framed a picture of Cam Newton.

No.3 TCU vs. No.5 Utah. Horned Frogs stun the Utes 47-7.

No.4 Boise State vs. Hawaii. Broncos win 42-7.

What did we learn?

1)    Sure, Kellen Moore can throw the ball, but he’s still goofy looking.

2)    Fans can expect another week of “poor Boise State deserves to play in the national championship” talk.

No.6 Alabama vs. No.10 LSU. Mad Hatter wins 24-21.

What did we learn?

1)    Les Miles is the best grass-eating coach out there.

2)    Les Miles claps with his fingers spread out. We’re assuming he does this because he believes it creates better aerodynamics.

No.7 Nebraska vs. Iowa State. Nebraska survives 31-30.

What did we learn?

1)    Don’t go for a two-point conversion if your holder sucks at throwing the football.

2)    At some schools, winning in overtime is celebrated the same way as winning a championship.

No.8 Oklahoma vs. Texas A&M. Aggies with the upset, 33-19.

What did we learn?

1)    If you prefer your teams to gain 303 total yards, then this was your kind of game.

2)    After scoring two TD’s and running for a career-high 147 yards, Montee Ball can now be the backup running back again.

No.12 Missouri vs. Texas Tech. Red Raiders win 24-17.

What did we learn?

No.14 Michigan State vs. Minnesota. Spartans win 31-8.

What did we learn?

1)    A great way to get back into a winning form is to play Minnesota.

2)    Kirk Cousins is the Ricky Stanzi of 2009.

No.16 Iowa vs. Indiana. Hawkeyes win 18-13.

What did we learn?

1)    A good way to get your name out there is to drop the game-winning touchdown pass.

What did we learn?

1)    The best way to disrupt Tyrod Taylor is to give him as much time in the pocket as he needs.

2)    If you give up 844 yards, you’re gonna lose.

No.24 Florida State vs. North Carolina. Tar Heels win 37-35.

What did we learn?

1)    The Tar Heels long snapper is way too good at his job, or bad depending on whether you count accuracy.

2)    Wide right. Enough said.

No.25 North Carolina State vs. Clemson. Tigers win 14-13.

What did we learn?

1)    This game was uglier than Joakim Noah.

2)    If you’re going to bench your starting quarterback, you should probably tell him.
