This was, by any measure, a strange weekend of college football.
We saw one of the top-ten teams in the nation lose in overtime. We saw a senior linebacker from another top-ten team walk off the field, seemingly quitting the team, during the first half and then fire off some quickly-deleted tweets about his school from the locker room. A third top-ten team lost to the upstart Arkansas Razorbacks, who might be worth paying attention to over the next few weeks. Auburn turned to their backup quarterback to pull off a win over Georgia State that was 1-2 coming into the game. Bowling Green, 30-point underdogs to Minnesota, won on the road over the Golden Gophers.
There…there was a lot.
There were also some interesting quarterback performances to examine. Now, maybe it was a function of a beautiful weather in the Washington D.C. area this weekend, or maybe it was the craziness we saw in college football on Saturday, but Stock Watch this week is generally positive.
With two exceptions.
