College Football Games, Week 3: Jimbo Fisher’s Warm Seat at Texas A&M, Oklahoma-Nebraska Continue

Hykeem Williams is the story behind the story this week in Texas A&M. That’s because it’s impossible to split Williams – a coveted wide receiver in the 2023 class – into two. Williams, Five star opportunity from Fort Lauderdale, Floridais making an unofficial visit to College Station, Texas, this week with No. 13 Miami, FL) Coming to town.

Among the top five are AlabamaAnd the Georgia And the Pittsburgh …plus the Aggies and Hurricanes, who fight easy Saturday at Kyle Field. Williams should make his decision within a week. It would be too easy to suggest that his decision depends on the outcome of the game, but the recruit never sleeps.

Jimbo Fisher proved it in his fifth year at Texas A&M. At the same time, a lot of Aggies seemed to shake their heads.

Fisher’s seat is noticeably warmer after the inexplicable loss of a home Appalachian State. No, he won’t be fired anytime soon, but Age Nation is starting to grumble.

The school and its institutions did not pay all this guaranteed money for… this is. Light objects are rolled all around into a ball of confusion. Even if Texas A&M wanted to fire Fisher, it would have to wait until 2026 to owe him less than $50 million. Prominent Lawyer in the Southeast Take a picture on Twitter.

So did others. Fisher must have it. Don’t get all those millions and lose in App State. Ever. But watching the movie from last week, the main result was a lack of preparation and effort. Texas A&M was the favorite by 18 points. Should have warned him about the status of the app after watching him score 61 North Carolina.

The Mountaineers came out and held the ball for 41 minutes, limiting the Aggies to 186 total yards. App State appearances turned the corner on elite SEC defenders.

But being college students, well, they’re not robots. Permits were dropped by Texas A&M receivers. Passing intervention penalties for consecutive plays. The Aggies scored one offensive touchdown against a defense that had just surrendered 63 to UNC.

In fact, Texas A&M lost twice to App State. ESPN’s ‘College GameDay’ turned this week’s Mountaineers Campus against Troy Instead, visit College Station.

In short, Aggies did not appear. that happens. ask Notre Dame and Marcus Freeman. Unspecified is the amount of time Fisher will have to fix.

In year five, the results were disappointing: a runner-up finish at SEC West, one Six Bow game in the New Year, and a big win over Alabama that ended up not saying much. The Aggies have been 5-3 since that victory on October 9, 2021. Through 50 games, Fisher (35-15) has been better than the player he replaced, Kevin Sumlin (34-16).

What can be more annoying is playing in the middle. Fisher inherited a career passing leader Keelen Mund. The backup that beat Alabama, Zach Calzada, is now in the same role Auburn. Student Heinz King was substandard. Don’t be surprised if LSU Transfer Max Johnson takes a look if things go south against shanks.

Fisher has been appointed by Texas A&M as coach of the National Championship for Heisman Cup winner (Jameis Winston). If he is smart, he will soon start selling the future.

This is where Williams comes in. We can understand from the Aggies’ disappointing start, but it’s all about recruiting. Fisher landed what was described as Best class ever earlier this year. Some of these guys are going to have to play as real novice students.

It remains to be seen if they do or not, but they are expected to contribute in 2023 and 2024. Imagine Williams and his 6-foot-3, 200-pound frame in the mix. Fisher must remind the Aggies of this while arming the current situation.

Texas A&M should do well on Saturday to avoid 1-2 starts. Mostly, Williams has to show that he should be a part of what’s going on at College Station.

The events of the third week

Georgia might actually be better: Until recently, the initial conversation about now was not. 1 Bulldogs is whether they can play at the level they played last season when they won the program’s first National title in four decades. Consider that the conversation has changed. The Dawgs Open SEC plays in South Carolina Only give 1.5 points per game in two weeks. Covered Georgia (-24.5) on her last three visits to Columbia, South Carolina. And yes, quarterback Stetson Bennett is a serious candidate for the Heisman Cup.

Must Watch Oklahoma-Nebraska: This is it NebraskaFirst game since Scott Frost was released. Interim coach Mickey Joseph really wants the job. Players love him, and he’s a great recruit, but this can get complicated. Joseph’s only coaching experience was with Langston, an NAIA junior school in Oklahoma (2011-12). If Nebraska wins on Saturday, goes for a run and gets a bowl game (all it takes is 6-6), how does Joseph deny serious thinking?

Complicating matters further is the presence of Urban Meyer. He once admitted that he toured campus “incognito” to get drunk in the atmosphere of game day. If not, everythingIt would be a perfect alternative. It’s doubtful Nebraska will set him up, but the whole scene will be over the top as Meyer will be on campus with Fox in Lincoln, Nebraska.

In what used to be called the Big Eight, these two teams played for the championship in this game every year from the early 1970s to the late 1980s. #6 Oklahoma (-11) may be a huge favourite, but its streak is down full landing From -17 since the launch of Frost.

CFP for BYU? The No. 12 Cougars are the official football bait in a playoff match after their big win over No. 17 Baylor. The BYU table definitely gives a chance to reach the top four. If Baylor continues to win, that supports the BYU cause, which could also include Saturday’s 25th win. Oregonin Stanfordin Boise State and against Notre Dame (in Las Vegas). Bo Nix in Oregon is 3-11 as a rookie against the top 15 teams with eight professional touchdown passes to go with 13 interceptions.

There is a reason for state patronage laws: Yes He enters Week Three at 131st (last in FBS) for a total offense. You probably know that third-grade youth soccer teams score more points average than Hawkeyes (seven) teams. You advance me if you question the streak this week against Nevada. Iowa is the favorite with 23.5 points with an offensive scoring total of 14 points in two games.

Coach Kirk Ferentz goes into that game after making few, if any, changes to the offensive start to the depth chart. That includes quarterback Spencer Petras (45% completion, 3.9 yards per attempt). Fifty-five FBS-qualified players in the NCAA statistics have better yards per carry average than Petras does yards per pass. It’s worth noting that Ferentz didn’t make a change to the attack coordinator either. That unit is led by his son, Brian Ferencs.

Irish Eyes Tearing: no California better than Marshall, especially with a defense that allows one point (27) more than Notre Dame gave up last week (26)? Should we suppose the Fighting Irish attack will be troublesome with reserve quarterback Drew Payne (39 career passes) to replace the injured Tyler Buchner? North Carolina, BYU, and Stanford are next. The Irish might be looking for a 2-4 mid-season, at best.

Fresno State Referendum: number 7 USC in Oregon September 24th is shaping up as the first big Pac-12 showdown of the season. beavers (vs. MontanaThey just won their 19th game on the road with no conferences at all in Fresno State. The wand is being delivered to USC, which is hosting the Bulldogs this week. The Trojans are on the verge of fulfillment as one of 12 teams that haven’t turned the ball yet. But to maintain faith in their potential, they will have to stop looking like Oklahoma under Lincoln Riley. At last week’s Stanford hit, USC gave up 441 yards and hit 109 yards in penalty kicks.

Suggestions for Bobby Petrino’s return to Arkansas: (1) I Missouri The coach can enter the Razorback with a loud and fast Harley-Davidson, just like the Oregon Paddles at Autzen Stadium. (2) Arkansas could have signed a game sponsor for neck braces. Anyway… until the most recent recovery with Sam Bateman, Arkansas No. 10 took a lot of the past decade to bounce back from Petrino’s bluffs. The first coach to win 11 games for the Razorbacks in 34 years is also responsible for sending the program into a downward spiral that produced just three winning seasons from 2012-21.

quick kicks: As long as the Nebraska job is open, it may also add to the roster of App State’s Sean Clark, 21-8 in his fourth season. If he can win with three-star players in the mountains of North Carolina, think what he can do with Big Ten recruit money… No. 1 (Alabama) came out of that position in the AP Top 25 with the team that beat him (Texas) in The world rankings for the first time since 1997. At the time, Nebraska slipped from No. 1 to No. 3 after hitting. Missouri, which moved to 25th place, in overtime… Only eight teams from FBS did not force a change in their sales. Alabama and Notre Dame are two of them. …those who bet on their first 500-yard pass and fast 200-yard performance this season, keep holding on to those tickets. With 276 matches this season, there have been no such matches by anyone.
