Game 45 - Iowa State at Baylor
October 24 at McLane Stadium in Waco, TX
ESPN
Baylor really didn't have much trouble with Iowa State, winning 45-27. But, as has become customary at this site and others, I'd rather just talk about ridiculous things said by humans about sports.
Here's what we have from Saturday:
"When that motor runs and that engine revs, he's a difference maker"
Engine revs! Excellent start.
"The chunk cut"
Don't say chunk cut.
"He's a football player"
Thank goodness. It would've been an embarrassing situation if he were a lacrosse player.
TYLER, put the STICK DOWN.
"This is a a pride drive, it's an opportunity drive"
It's a pridertunity drive.
"Mel Kiper's big board"
Would be great if the board was on a wall in Mel Kiper's bathroom until April when he unhooks it, shoves it in the back seat of his car and drives to the draft.
"He's our coach on the field"
You know what, it's time for a player-coach in college football. Let's get Jimbo Fisher out there at free safety, or Mangino needs to play nose tackle.
"Almost the definition of 'throwing your wide receiver open'"
That has a definition?
Some others:
"personnel groupings"
"they take your will away"
"this is a hat on a hat"
"variance in his game"
"lost 2 or 3 yards of real estate"
"that's a tough recipe"
"owned at the point of attack"
"quick bootleg action"

Please welcome referee Brad Van Vark

Game 26 - Gainesville HS at Salem HS
October 2 at Salem Stadium in Conyers, GA
If enough fans had actually attended this game (total attendance: 62) they would've surely gotten some sort of escort situation together to help Gainesville leave the town of Conyers immediately.
Gainesville (mascot: the Red Elephants because of all of Earth's red elephants) forced six turnovers a week after picking up five against Salem's county rival, Heritage. Both games were wins for the visitors, including Friday's 34-6 victory, and the Hall County, GA school is 4-0 in Region 8-AAAAA play.
Hendrick Ekpe All Stars
Let's welcome to the team Gainesville safety Weber Lint.
Weber Lint would've been Owen Lift's friend in Throw Momma From The Train if Owen's momma let him have any friends.

Game 18 - Mississippi at Alabama
September 19 at Bryant-Denny Stadium in Tuscaloosa, AL
ESPN
Couple quick things from a 43-37 Mississippi victory:
A lot of 'ages' to go through over the course of this football broadcast. Kirk Herbstreit & Chris Fowler, take it a way.
"Soft coverage"/"Sink into coverage"/"Using their eyes to manipulate coverage"
"Short yardage package"
"Leverage on the football"
Some other nonsense from Herbstreit:
"Pinning their ears"
"Rub route"
"Energizer bunny"
"Tackle in space"
"Providing that swagger"
Hendrick Ekpe All Stars
Let's all welcome to the team Mississippi wide receiver Damore'ea Stringfellow

Game 6 - Ohio State at Virginia Tech
September 7 at Lane Stadium in Blacksburg, VA
ESPN
Virginia Tech trailed 14-0 early and led 17-14 at halftime, but the second half belonged to the defending national champions.
Ohio State racked up 546 total yards and scored 28 unanswered points to pull away from the Hokies in a 42-24 victory.
Part of that four-touchdown spurt was the outstanding play of Braxton Miller. The OSU receiver caught a 54-yard touchdown from Cardale Jones on the first series of the second half, then made a ridiculous spin move as part of a 53-yard scoring catch that put the Buckeyes up 28-17. Just before that, VT's J.C. Coleman fumbled to set up OSU in great field position.
What else do we know about Coleman? Not much, just that he WEARS A WRIST WATCH DURING GAMES.
Few questions:
1. Why would Coleman need to know the TIME OF DAY/NIGHT while playing a football game?
2. Why is the watch so big?
3. Is the watch part of the wristband? Because that would clear a few things up.
4. Is this guy serious?
5. A watch?!
Hendrick Ekpe All Stars
Let me introduce the newest member of the All Star team, OSU cornerback Eli Apple.
Football Phrases
Kirk Herbstreit is a solid commentator, but he's got a football phrase rolodex that measures up with any announcer in the business.
Kirk?
"High risk high reward"
"Laser focus"
"They're not resting on their laurels"
"Swagger"
"It's in his DNA"
"Bend but don't break defense"
"The teeth of this defense"
"In the trenches"
"They want to shoot gaps"
"Ball skills"
"Live by the sword, die by the sword"
"A bread and butter play"
"Minister of defense"
"Blue collar approach"
"Chess match"
"Backyard football"
"Pick six"
"Game reps"
"Meaningful snaps"
And let's not make the mistake of forgetting the night put together by play-by-play man Chris Fowler:
"Lighting strikes"
"Nothing but green grass in front of him"
"Hokie lunchpail"
"Wear and tear"
"Wheel route"
"Tough little customer"
"Change of pace guy"
"Move the chains"
"Escapability"
"Sack parade"
"Workmanlike"
And....
"He's a football player"
Well, thank goodness for that. Thanks, Chris!

Game 4 - TCU at Minnesota
September 3 at TCF Bank Stadium in Minneapolis, MN
ESPN
Trevone Boykin is a Heisman Trophy candidate and the Horn Frogs needed every bit of his 338 all-purpose yards and two touchdowns to hang on, 23-17.
Minnesota got a Mitch Leidner-to-KJ Maye touchdown with about a minute and a half left to get within six points, then had one final shot to tie/win the game, but could only get to its own 27 as time expired.
* Football Phrases
"A program on the rise"
"Keep the chains moving"
"All the players bought in"
"3rd and medium"
"The game is not too big for him"
"Flip the field"
* Throughout the season we'll be building the 100 Game Season all-name team, which we'll call, thanks to our first team member, the Hendrick Ekpe All Stars.
Ekpe, Minnesota's defensive end, has also been named team captain.
