'26 Week 7 CFB games thread (10/16, /17), excluding PSU

[Tom McAndrew]

Please use this thread to discuss all 2026 CFB games that take place in Week 7 of the schedule. There are a few games on 10/15, but 99% of the games are on 10/16 and 10/17. The only exception to this is the PSU - Michigan game, which will have its own game thread.

 

[KingLando]

Good lineup today

Noon--5 good games lead by Indiana/Ohio State plus Texas/Florida, SMU/Virgina, Miss State/LSU and the Patty Fitz revenge game
3:30--Penn State vs Michigan but two great SEC games Bama/Tennessee & Mizzou/Ole Miss
Late--BYU/ND (let's go BYU) plus we get to see UCLA and Kentucky have a chance to show they're legit in games they should win
Real Late--Nebraska/Oregon--a chance to see how bad Oregon really is and they benched Raiola (curious to see if he portals again now) instead of letting him go against his former team

 

[Chumboshifko1]

Boston College. Flubbing up. Trying to lose.

 

[PSUForever]

The Indiana/OSU game like the B10 championship game last year. Low scoring. Missed FG huge.

 

[KingLando]

Cig is an elite HC--obviously--but going for that 4th & 4 seems like an overreaction to the missed FG earlier
Radicic has been very reliable and 3 there cuts it to 3. Now all the momentum is with Ohio State--we'll see what happens but...
Didn't understand that at all

 

[KingLando]

Okay--Cig just knows Sayin is as bad as Hoover right now and they'd get the ball back--he's playing chess

 

[MtNittany]

WVU offense looks good, but they can't stop anyone.

 

[KingLando]

Kudos to Patty Fitz--got his team fired up to try to get revenge

 

[KingLando]

Hoover has to take himself out--he was playing poorly before--now he's injured on top of that

 

[KingLando]

Okay--Cig is making a lot of questionable decisions right now--maybe he's not playing chess lol

 

[psu31trap]

Man was I wrong about Texas. At the start of the season I thought they would be invincible, but they’re about to get their second “L” against Florida.

 

[MtNittany]

Okay--Cig is making a lot of questionable decisions right now--maybe he's not playing chess lol

He's also a TD away from possibly winning this game.

Sark is letting Oklahoma beat them twice

 

[KingLando]

He's also a TD away from possibly winning this game.

He is--far from over but do you agree he's not making the best decisions thus far in this one
Sayin is keeping them in it IMO

 

[MtNittany]

IU ML is +400 right now. I'm in for a sprinkle.

Well, up until that. How do you let that happen? Good play call, but he just threw it up for grabs.

 

[KingLando]

Jeremiah Smith = Heisman

 

[KingLando]

IU ML is +400 right now. I'm in for a sprinkle.

Before the TD?

 

[MtNittany]

Before the TD?

Yeah before. I waited, so I didn't place it. +900 now, which is more tempting.

 

[KingLando]

Yeah before. I waited, so I didn't place it. +900 now, which is more tempting.

If Hoover was healthy I might be tempted on that.

 

[MtNittany]

If Hoover was healthy I might be tempted on that.

If there's a team in CFB that can shut out OSU the rest of the way and score 10 points, they're on the field right now. IF.

 

[KingLando]

Georgia?
But Cig would be my second pick

 

[KingLando]

Patty Fitz played it safe and ran clock to set up a FG only for it to be blocked. Northwestern has a minute to avoid OT.
Fitz had coached an amazing game until then

 

[BobPSU92]

texas and manning. Jesus.

 

[KingLando]

Ohio State played soft zone that whole drive
Nice job by Hoover/Cig to take advantage.

 

[KingLando]

Never mind

 

[MtNittany]

I took +750 for $10 when they were at mid field.

 

[Big_O]

The Penn State killer, Becker, may help take down O$U. Over 120 yards receiving so far.

 

[KingLando]

Northwestern survives
Couple tough losses for Fitz in a row

 

[Nitt1300]

down goes Texass

 

[KingLando]

Part of me still thinks Sayin bet on Indiana

 

[KingLando]

Cignetti should bench Isaiah Jones for that--pure stupidity

 

[MtNittany]

Cignetti should bench Isaiah Jones for that--pure stupidity

It wasn't a hard hit by any means, but he wasn't launched before the slide began, so yeah...stupid.

 

[KingLando]

Gotta think Tony Elliott is learning what Eliah Drinkwitz learned last year--Beau isn't good enough.

 

[MtNittany]

A FG means nothing to tOSU now anyway.

 

[KingLando]

It wasn't a hard hit by any means, but he wasn't launched before the slide began, so yeah...stupid.

I'm sorry--but that was absolutely the right call--moronic by Jones. And I like Jones.

 

[KingLando]

Ohio State still playing soft, prevent defense--stupid, stupid, stupid

 

[KingLando]

And Locksley should be fired tomorrow morning. Leading 23-13 they give up 24 unanswered to Rutgers

 

[Nitt1300]

tOSU backup QB is horrible

 

[Big_O]

Looks Ike Manske is better than the O$U backup.

 

[psu31trap]

Indiana D gets a big stop. Big drive here with 3:07 left.
