College Football Week 3

Another fun weekend of college football is in the books. Iowa played a hard fought battle with Pittsburgh, winning 27-24 as Marshall Koehn drilled a 57 yard field goal as time expired. I was doing a show at a VFW Saturday night, so I didn't get to see the game live, but followed it on Twitter. The show was a lot of fun, by the way. Met some great people, I always enjoy performing for those guys. When I got home I was able to watch part of the game before I passed out, I watched the rest in the morning. I think if Iowa still had Jake Rudock at QB they would be 1-2 right now. C.J. Beathard is a bad ass. He took a pounding against Pitt and still racked up nearly 300 yards of total offense.

I was able to catch the last quarter of the Alabama-Ole Miss game, too. I watched with my friends Holly and Nick, Holly is a huge Alabama fan. They were down 19 in the fourth, but their comeback fell short.
