  • Week 1 College Football Helmet Stickers.

    A collage of various college football team logos arranged in a grid pattern.

    Week 1 of the college football season has come to an end. Except for the UNC vs TCU game tonight.

    Ohio State made Paul Finnebaum look like the clueless jackwang that he really is. Defeating Texas 14-7.

    Unranked Florida State coming off a two-win season, upset an obviously over-rated #8 Alabama 31-17.

    #9 LSU went into Death Valley and defeated #4 Clemson 17-10.

    #17 Kansas State BARELY avoided starting the season 0-2, defeating FCS North Dakota 38-35.

    The Arch Manning hype train proved to be what I said it was months ago. I did not, and do not believe he’s even a Top 5 college football quarterback right now.

    My Upset special for Week 1 did not come through, as the Toldeo Rockets fell to the Kentucky Wildcats 24-16.

    So, without further ado, here are my helmet sticks for Week 1.

    1) Florida State Seminoles.

    Coming off one of the worst seasons in program history. They went out and got another transfer quarterback from the portal. Tommy Castellanos had a history with new offensive Gus Malzahn; and they used it to pull off the upset of the season (as of now).

    2) Isaiah Chisom, Linebacker, UCLA.

    The linebacker transferred from Oregon State to UCLA and had a whopping 17 tackles for the Bruins, in a 43-10 thumping at the hands of the Utah Utes. He was all over the field. The lone bright spot for a Bruins team that had so much hype around their new incoming quarterback.

    3) Eddie Lee Marburger, QB, UT Rio Grande Valley.

    Headshot of Eddie Lee Marburger, a quarterback from UT Rio Grande Valley, wearing a gray shirt with the university's logo, against an orange background.

    The transfer quarterback from UTSA, went 18 of 19, for 365 yards, with 5 TDs and 0 INTs. That’s a 94.7% completion percentage and a QBR of 343.0.

    Week 2 of the college football season begins on Thursday night at 6:00 PM (EST), with 5 different division 2 or division 3 games.
