Either BCS teams are getting worse or the little guy is getting better.

Eastern Washington 49
Oregon State 46

Tha fuck? Aren't the Beavers supposed to have a good defense?

K-State lost to North Dakota State.

McNeese State is up 50-21 on South Florida.

WKU is up double digits on Kentucky.

WVU only beat William & Mary by a TD.

Nebraska survived a scare from Wyoming.

Iowa lost to Northern Illinois (predictable).

Some other closely played games as well and ugly box scores.

And WMU looked like crap last night. I hate Week 1 games, wish they would come through one of these times.

Me and a couple buddies went to a kinda high end sports bar up the road, where they didn't see the value in showing the game featuring 2 teams with single-digit numbers next to their names, in favor of OS on every TV... and yes, I had something to say about it, and told them my patronage was now a thing of the past, which is too bad, since the place is always packed-full of hot football fan chicks...

but anyhoo, OS's defense was absolutely brutal. Offense was actually decent, which is like a bizzarro Riley team. Eastern Washington (a very good 1AA, but a 1AA nonetheless) wasn't that impressive on offense, but they were doing whatever they wanted against that gawd-awful defense. Around here, the non-homers got a kick out of the #25 ranking, and chalked it up to a "lifetime achievement award" for Riley, since we weren't seeing it, after losing their 2 best players, and not knowing which of the two solidly medicre QBs would even start.

If my memory serves, that's 2 Week 1 losses to 1AAs in 3 seasons for OS... classic.

In other news... feeling stupid yet, pollStErCs?
