College Football Opening Weekend



For fans of college football, the wait is over! Arguably the greatest spectator sport in America has returned. The opening week/weekend of college football saw plenty of blowouts, especially from the teams atop the rankings. #1 USC, #2 LSU, #3 West Virginia, #4 Florida and #5 Oklahoma all blew out their competition. Cal and Tennessee played and exciting game with Cal ultimately winning. Notre Dame was embarrassed at home by Georgia Tech. And in perhaps the greatest upset in college football history, division 1AA (championship subdivsion) Appalachian State Mountaineers shocked formerly #5 Michigan Wolverines at home. As for Michigan, the Wolverines became the first ranked team from Division I-A, now known as the Bowl Subdivision, to lose to a team from I-AA, now known as the Championship Subdivision. Even though the Mountaineers are the 2 time defending 1AA (championship subdivison) Champions, their unprecedented win over Michigan sent the Wolverines tumbling clear out of the top 25, which is the greatest drop in the rankings by any team...ever.
