My heart…

Well, now that Missouri's QB is injured, my cousin, Maty Mauk will "probably" be starting QB. Their QB was injured last week so my cousin finished out the game. They upset Georgia last week big time. He is a red shirt so look out!!!. But, go bucks!!!
Any resemblance?
-
Definite resemblance, and that's pretty cool. I didn't see that game last week, but I know he played for at least a quarter in a close, hard-fought game; so he had to play pretty well.
I'll keep an eye out for him. Tigers I can root for. Buckeyes not so much.
-
Wasn't there a Mauk that played for LSU awhile back?
-
His older brother played for wake forest, got hurt, and then transferred to Cincinnati
-
-
Bags, that was Matt Mauk, he won their first BCS title.
I asked Siri how Ole Miss did.
-
Congrats to yo cuz Ohyo
-
Ya, he played well

How is Stanford still so high after losing to Utah? I get they beat UCLA last weekend, but UCLA only beat Nebraska who has 0 wins over top 25 teams.
-
No idea
I love that Stanford has true student athletes but if you have a weak schedule you have to handle your business. I was glad to see that Louisville at least fell out of the top 15 after that loss.
-
^Agreed
-
Typical East Coast bias. Stanford has anything but a weak schedule. They are a Top 10 team, even with the loss.
-
We can discuss in hyperbole if you want but that was a bad a loss. They have an argument to be the top 1 loss team, (Clemson has a good argument too, at least they lost to a good team) they have two good wins but top 10 for losing to an unranked? I have to disagree. But hey, if they can beat Oregon then I'll eat those words.
-
I agree that Clemson losing to #5 FSU is much better than losing to Utah, on the road. Utah is not a terrible team, however. They have three loses to teams with a combined record of 15-4. Stanford strayed from their run first, run second, game plan against the Utes, and it cost them. They are big, strong, and play smart and physical. I think they are every bit a Top 10 team, but they won't beat Oregon.
-
You have to handle your business and they didn't. Their opponents are a combined 23-20 and they generally have had pretty weak schedules… Stanford has had a weak schedule to date, the meat of their schedule difficulty-wise is ahead of them. They will have an opportunity then to work their way back into the top 10, but right now they don't deserve it.
Not an east coaster nor biased. I like Stanford, if anything my bias would be in their favor.
-
Okay, it looks like we are just going to have to agree to disagree on this one. They beat 3 teams that were in the Top 25, when they played. Sure, they took a page out of the SEC's and Big 10's playbook and played cupcake Non-Conference games; but if you can name four teams outside of the Top 10 that are better, I'd really like to hear it.
-
Phew, almost no additional sanctions on the 'Canes after a 2.5 year botched investigation by the NCAA. A good day for the U.
-
I'm not a 'Canes fan, but I was happy to see this result, too. The NCAA are the biggest bunch of hypocrites I can think of.
-
Yeah, Washington was ranked. So what? It's clear they didn't deserve to be now; it was an artifact of bad preseason polling. We don't really know how good UCLA is yet either, impressive win against Nebraska but everyone else on their schedule is a joke.
Alabama, Florida State, Ohio State, Missou, Oregon, Auburn, Oregon State, Baylor, Clemson, Tx Tech, Miami, LSU, TAMU all have legitimate claims to be in the top 10, so I think it makes perfect sense that Stanford is out of it for now.
