Since the active users on Lemmy is kind of low right now, I'm just posting this one game thread for all of today's matchups. I will mostly be commenting on the only P4 v P4 matchup: North Carolina @ Minnesota, but feel free to comment on any games going on (I will be flipping through them anyway).
Other P4 teams on deck today include:
- Colorado hosting North Dakota State (ESPN)
- Arkansas hosting Arkansas-Pine Bluff (ESPNU)
- 16Missouri hosting Murray State (SECN)
- NC State hosting Western Carolina (ACCN)
- Rutgers hosting Howard (BTN)
- Illinois hosting Eastern Illinois (BTN)
- UCF hosting New Hampshire (ESPN+)
- Wake Forest hosting North Carolina A&T (ESPN+)
- 23Kansas hosting Lindenwood (ESPN+)
- 18Utah hosting Southern Utah (ESPN+)
I missed the game live, but my brother's short assessment after the game was "Colorado coaching with emotion, and not the good kind". Sums it up pretty well now that I've had the chance to watch some clips.
I like to think I'm fairly knowledgeable about FCS schools, but had to look up Lindenwood... they were D2 only 2 years ago. I would expect a beatdown by KU, but I think they'll keep the playbook pretty closed
Totally wild INT that was nearly a pick-six in the Minnesota-UNC game! (I like both teams, so I just enjoy seeing any cool plays in this one)
Of course Minnesota doinks the chip shot field goal. Feels like there's gonna be no points in this game
The tip off the calf of the downed defender to result in the end zone INT for NDSU was beautiful. That is what CFB is all about
