In a rain-soaked adventure Louisville was able to defeat the Sycamores of Indiana State pretty easily. Backup quarterback Malik Cunningham had two touchdowns in what was a relatively ho-hum performance by the team. The offense will have an underrated test against the Western Kentucky Hilltoppers in Week 3.

As I kept checking the score of this game I couldn’t believe my eyes. Willie Taggart has been able to get the most out of his teams early in his tenure, so why is Florida State playing so poorly? They were very close to being upset by Samford (yes, Samford), and I don’t think they will be a threat in the ACC this season.

Can the Seminoles go into the Carrier dome and down the Syracuse offense? We will find out Saturday at noon.

The Eagles had no worries in their big win against Hofstra. You can tell it’s going to be an easy victory when AJ Dillon carries the ball six times for 149 yards and three scores, pretty much relaxing on the sidelines for most of the game. The Thursday night game at Wake Forest could be a potential upset.
