Ryan Day isn’t happy with his Buckeyes, but fans are ready for Penn State.
It was once again a Saturday that reminded us all why we love college football. The big games delivered, the small ones got crazy, and familiar faces for Penn State fans (hello, Michael Penix Jr. and Christian Veilleux) made headlines.
Before we shift gears into Penn State-Ohio State mode, let’s see what Twitter thought of this week’s action.
WASHINGTON-OREGON GOES THE DISTANCE
A classic Big Ten battle was the headline of this week’s college football slate. No. 7 Washington vs. No. 8 Oregon was everything we hoped it would be and more, coming down to a missed field goal at the buzzer. Field storm. Huskies jump to No. 5. College football.
IT'S OVER!!!!@UW_Football wins it! Oregon missed the late field goal, Dawgs stay perfect!!@komonews pic.twitter.com/d4sGQMdrOa

Oregon is going to drop in polls tomorrow, but they really shouldn't.

Washington over Oregon was the best Big Ten game in literal years.

In the end, Dan Lanning played for clicks instead of for wins. pic.twitter.com/xQkdy4ccjl

RYAN DAY UNHAPPY WITH OHIO STATE
Despite No. 3 Ohio State’s 41-7 steamrolling (boilermaking?) of Purdue, head coach Ryan Day had a bone to pick with some of the mistakes the Buckeyes made. Perhaps he knows there’s a big matchup right around the corner. Still, it was hard for fans to feel too down about the win.
Ryan Day on Ohio State's upcoming matchup with Penn State, the second half of 2023: "We are nowhere near where we need to be. ... We know we have a big challenge ahead of us. The preparation starts now."

USC STUMBLES
No. 10 USC’s defensive woes finally caught up to it as No. 21 Notre Dame walked away with a 48-20 blowout victory. The Irish have been through the gauntlet this season and finally walked away with a win. Now, the Trojans have a scheduling gauntlet of their own to face.
This Notre Dame fan absolutely trolled Caleb Williams after the game last night, telling him “Let me see those nails now bro” pic.twitter.com/BsE4iwJLA0

If I’m Caleb Williams I’d be so pissed at Lincoln Riley… dude convinced him to go to USC and couldn’t build a team around him to compete

VEILLEUX LEADS PITT TO RANKED WIN
In his first game as a starter, Penn State transfer Christian Veilleux pulled off a ranked win over No. 14 Louisville. While the Canadian didn’t play lights-out, he did more than enough to keep Panthers fans happy with him as the guy moving forward.

Veilleux gave credit to Penn State for teaching him how to be comfortable when facing cover zero.

#Pitt QB Christian Veilleux made most of his first start. Very confident young man who has the belief of his teammates pic.twitter.com/5FXwe8SlCs

COLORADO STATE PULLS OFF INSANE COMEBACK
Colorado State was trailing by 20 with just four minutes remaining, and it won the freaking football game. Yes, Boise State pulled its starters. This wasn’t a Blue Chip game this weekend, but the fourth quarter was beyond wild.

COLLEGE. FOOTBALL.
What a comeback for Colorado State. Just wish there was more than 62 people there to rush the field pic.twitter.com/Jkg7ZU7inO
We finally saw a team lose a game in which they pulled their starters. Unreal.

Boise State will never again be a dominant Group of 5 https://t.co/tCa7yqUGCf
Unreal!!!! Colorado State trailed Boise State 30-10 w/4:08 remaining and stuns Broncos 31-30 by recovering onside kick to set up 1 TD & then connects on Hail Mary on game's final play

The Colorado State locker room is absolutely lit!

MICHIGAN STARTS SLOW, WINS BIG
It looked like disaster was brewing in Ann Arbor when No. 2 Michigan trailed Indiana 7-0 after the first quarter. But, the Wolverines finally woke up and made mincemeat of the Hoosiers, walking away with a crooked 52-7 victory.

The maize socks make Michigan look slow. Look slow, play slow. Horrible mistake.

During the Michigan-Indiana broadcast, Gus Johnson and Joel Klatt took a shot at James Franklin and Penn State.
— Alex Rocco (@AlexRocco13_) October 14, 2023
Gus noted Franklin’s Tuesday press conference: “He said Michigan ain’t playing anybody.”
Joel: “That’s pretty rich from a guy whose team is playing UMass.”
