Chaos is normally glorified as one of college football’s main attractions.
This year, however, there is too much of a good thing.
Week seven of the college football season initially appeared to be a ho-hum week with the possibility for a few upsets, not the carnival of calamity that it turned out to be. None of the games featured matchups between top-25 teams. There was so little competition expected that College GameDay selected FCS matchup James Madison vs. Villanova as their marquee matchup of the week. Not even the Red River Rivalry between perennial contenders Oklahoma and Texas generated much buzz, as the Longhorns have underperformed all season and the Sooners lost in disappointing fashion to Iowa State.
