Why is Ohio St playing Indiana in week 1?

Why are Florida and Michigan playing in Texas?

Why is Purdue getting throttled by Louisville at a neutral site on primetime national tv a thing?

USF is playing San Jose St on CBS Sports channel if anyone is interested. Down 10-0 mid-way through the first.

Edit: Please be advised the team mascots are Spartans and Bulls - one group that was pretty disrespectful to women and the other that routinely gets abused in Madrid and teased in Pamplona.;)

Really...is anyone watching this? SJS is up 16-0 to USF at the end of the first quarter! Quintin Flowers has been ineffective so far.

I watched some of this game. USF looks good. FYI, San Jose State's season opener at home. School has already started, and a ranked team is coming to town on a beautiful afternoon. The reported attendance was 13,337. Even that number seems inflated when you looked at the crowd on the broadcast. Wow. Is that typical for non-power 5 schools?

Looks like Indiana ran out of miracles. The should have purchased the expansion pack. Might have lasted more than two quarters.
