A Football Rivalry Renewed and More

Yesterday was a great day in College Football and the thing that made it so great was the Michigan and Notre Dame game. What a classic game and what’s great about it is that it was probably the most competitive game they have had against each other in about five years. That game was good for college football because it’s one of the oldest rivalries in sports history. It started in 1887 and by winning yesterday it furthered their lead in the series 21-15-1. They also cracked the top 25 as well.

However the Michigan, Notre Dame game wasn’t the only great and exciting game yesterday. How about Central Michigan upsetting Michigan State yesterday 29-27 in the final minute of the game. Wisconsin Badgers barely beat the Fresno State Bulldogs yesterday 34-31. The Georgia Bulldogs got a run for their money from the South Carolina Gamecocks but Georgia won 41-37. The North Carolina Tar Heels who are much more known for basketball beat the Connecticut Huskies 12-10. The UCLA Bruins defeated the Tennessee Volunteers 19-15

Then there was the game that I thought was going to a blowout but ended up being a nail biter and that was USC and Ohio State. USC barely beat Ohio State which proved to me that both the Trojans and Buckeyes are either going to be really good or really bad this year. I am leaning toward them both being good. USC won the game 18-15 but Ohio State proved they still have a team that will still be difficult to beat.

It was definitely a good day in College Football and hopefully we will see more exciting games to come. I think it will be a very good week next week with match ups including:

No. 14 Georgia Tech at No. 20 Miami (FL)
No. 19 Nebraska at No. 13 Virginia Tech
Michigan State at Notre Dame

Hopefully we will see another great week in College Football.
