2 game impression
Posted: Mon Sep 10, 2018 2:01 pm
Its only 2 games but thought I would give a brief run down on my knee jerk reactions so far. Here is my most and least impressive teams from each conference. Not going by rankings or where they may be just what I've seen in 2 games.
American-- Most impressive, Houston. USF had a nice win over GA Tech but Houston has taken care of 2 FBS teams, including an Arizona squad that needed a bounce back win.
Least impressive--Temple. Losing to a local FCS foe Villanova and then getting beaten by Buffalo made this a pretty easy choice in my mind.
ACC--Most, Duke. I might make more of their win over Army than most but the win at Northwestern was a good follow up.
Least--FSU is the easy choice. Soundly beaten by VA Tech and could barely beat Samford. However, lets not look past UNC. Loss to Cal, who is a mediocre team and then ECU. Neither team is any good, so what does that say about them. They did go on the road for both games.
Big 12--Most, Oklahoma. Dont like going with such a high rank but the winners have done what was expected.
Least--Kansas State. Wow talk about a sluggish start. Not impressed with Snyder's squad at all yet.
Big 10--Most, Maryland. The team looked like they could be in total shambles to start the season. They have done a good job.
Least, Michigan State. A team that was being discussed as a playoff darkhorse. Lucky they aren't 0-2 right now.
CUSA--No team has stood out, good or bad.
MAC--Most, Buffalo. They are off to a good start. Honorable mention to Eastern Michigan.
Least, none. A lot of losses but its to be expected.
Mt West--Most, Hawaii. Dont think anyone had them at 3-0 right now. Good wins against some quality foes.
Least, Wyoming. I expected more competitive games from a team with this much returning.
PAC 12-- Most, Colorado. They are looking good.
Least, Arizona. Think we've covered them in enough topics already.
SEC--Most, LSU. Did not settle after the win over Miami. Jumped on the next foe early and showed dominance. No looking ahead to Auburn.
Least, Florida.
Sun Belt--Most, Appy State. Hard to look much better in a loss than what they did at Penn State. Noone gave them a chance. I like what I've seen from them.
Least, none. Like the MAC/CUSA not much unexpected in the way of losing.
