Week three was a routine one in college football and we can expect more of the same in a few day with week four.

A very disturbing ejection of Oklahoma freshman wide receiver CeeDee Lamb on a targeting block in the Sooners 56-14 beat down of the Tulane Green Wave.  It is troubling.  First, Lamb was called for a illegal hit after his devastating bone crushing block on a “defenseless” Tulane player after a fellow teammate intercepted a pass and was on the runback to score a touchdown.  Not that he was called on a possible foul, but that the foul did not meet the qualification by rule of a “target”, plus the fact that the Big Twelve, on the next day, LIED about it and supported their game day on-the-field decision to call it a target.  Video shows that the hit was “not” targeting, and yet the Big Twelve is like the world to day, in than do “not believe what your eyes see but what we tell you.”  I call the Big Twelve out for outright disgusting malfeasance of telling lies.  We are living in a society of this right now in our politics and it has now crossed over to sport.  Leaders of the Big Twelve conference organization, you are worthless. And do not tell me my eyes do not see what is happening.

In Big Twelve Action:

Oklahoma-opened slowly but took care of business. Tulane is an average team that is well coached and will win their share of games this season.

 

Oklahoma State-The nation’s best offense was just that in a first half blowout of Pittsburgh.  This team is special and can play with any defense.

 

Texas Christian-this team better get better in a hurry. Not impressed with their performance with SMU.  If Hill does not have the game of his career the Pokes will drill these Frogs.

 

West Virginia-Was that Delaware State? No matter.  Mountaineers are going to be tough especially at home.

 

Texas-accolades for losing?  That is Texas today.

 

Kansas State-not a good team.  No offense and that is talking turkey.

 

Texas Tech-beating Arizona State in a shootout.  Nothing new here.

 

Iowa State-this is the year to not finish ninth.  They have a chance.

 

Kansas-Bad.  In the same boat as Baylor.

 

Baylor-OU is going to get satisfaction in Waco Saturday.
