How about Texas Tech only putting up three points? One of the biggest surprises of the day to me.

I'm not surprised by any of it. I'll be surprised if Army beats Aggie, but the saddest part for the Big 12 isn't that all of those teams lost - it's that none of those teams should have been expected to win those games. They're duking it out with the ACC for worst BCS conference in the country.

Not that big of a surprise. They can hang 50 on any Big XII team, that doesn't say too much. And consider Tech USUALLY schedules Division IAA opponets and lesser IA opponets... whenever they play a team with a decent defense they show their true colors.

How about the Big East?
WVA is the only legit squad there.....Louisville lost Brohm today.

Yeah, and his backup came in a played very well. And if you remember, Brohm replaced somebody named Stefon LeFors, who had a pretty good career himself. I think Louisville will be just fine. If you beat Miami, you're legit. Rutgers and Pitt aren't too bad either. They're not world beaters, but they're showing more than most of the ACC or Big XII.

The Big East is at least 2-deep...it appears the Big 12 may be one deep. As for the ACC, well, they're really deep, with no elite teams though...lots of 8-3 calibur, not much else.
