Someone on Sports Reporters said it this morning. I was thinking the same thing. It seems as if anybody (except the B1G) can beat anybody - unranked teams beating top ten teams, FCS beating FBS, cats and dogs living together.

Take a look at these scores. Upsets and games far closer than expected. Just underscores that coaching and emotions really matter over a long season.

BC 37 - USC 31 (Addazio is a good coach, USC letdown game, BC pure emotion)
ND 30 - Purdue 14 (Purdue - really?)
East Car 28 - VT 21 (letdown week for the angry turkeys)
UVA 23 - UL 21 (L'ville probably was overrated - but UVA?)
GTU 42 - Ga So 38 (GTU not that good ether)
Vandy 34 - UMass 31 (Vandy does not belong in the SEC - period)
NCS 49 - USF 17 (is USF that bad)
PSU 13 -Rutgirls 10 (PSU that weak? RU that good?)

Except for the 2011 season where late season injuries caused a losing streak, we have invariably been a slow starter and have improved greatly over the course of the season. One reason is probably that we haven't been very deep in the past and every year we have had to start players that needed some experience and development. I am pleased to see that HCSS is playing so many newbies. This will not only help later this year but next as well. It should also help recruit players who want a real chance to play early.

Regardless of what happens this season, I like what I am seeing.
