Kentucky won a football game, convincingly!

I mean, yes, it was against Tennessee-Martin, but.

Also WKU opened their season by hanging 59 on Bowling Green so that's neat. Maybe they'll get to play in a bowl game that isn't being held in a blizzard this year.

How tightly does the NCAA regulate the bowl process? What if the Big Ten breaks with the NCAA and allows Penn State the possibility of winning the conference? Can a bowl selection committee bypass the NCAA and invite Penn State regardless?

I'm no expert, but I'm pretty sure that a bowl selection committee that did this would get their certification revoked or something.

My goal is to see my team ranked once in my lifetime

Unless you are, like, 19, your team totally has been ranked in your lifetime (#25, for one week, about nineteen years ago).

How the hell is Arizona on the road? Did they and UTSA agree to a home-and-home?

I think they scheduled a 2-and-1, and this is the 1.

How a program like UTSA even managed to get that against a power-conference team is still a worthwhile question, but it at least makes more sense that way.

So is there a real reason Florida couldn't use the extended holiday weekend and just make up the game in the following days?

Apparently the teams even share a bye week in late October but that wasn't good enough either I guess.

Perhaps the contract had a clause that Idaho got their money regardless, so they aren't interested in rescheduling.

They did, in fact, get their money anyway, so I'm sure this is part of it.

Weren't they pretty ok last year or Bobby Hauk that bad?

They (barely) made a bowl game for the first time in over a decade last season, so there's that.

But... they're still UNLV, Hauck still has a career record of 13-39 with the school, and Arizona just hung 787 yards on them the other week, so.
