Tech up to #11, BYU #9
TTU has wins over better teams, #22 UH, Oregon St, and ACU. TTU has the only ranked win between the two schools with UH being a better team than Arizona. Oregon St is better than CSU. ACU and Utah Tech is a draw. So somehow TTU has two better wins then BYU, but BYU passed TTU and is ranked higher because of “the eyeball test.” Last year TTU got to prove it was better then BYU on the field during the regular season. However, this year BYU isn’t on TTU’s schedule. Therefore I am worried that BYU will continue to receive preferential treatment due to the eyeball test. I know the season has a lot more games to be played and things will continue to shake out, but somehow BYU leapfrogged TTU against weaker competition and it is something to monitor going forward.

Anson-Haskell high school football game ended early following serious injury
HASKELL, Texas – The Anson Tigers and Haskell Indians played 47 minutes of physical, hard-hitting high school football Friday night. With time winding down late in the fourth quarter of a back-and-forth, one-score game, Haskell forced a pivotal turnover on downs with 63 seconds remaining. The stadium went wild and the Indians’ sideline erupted in applause. Moments later, though, spectators could hear a pin drop as the crowd at Indian Field went silent. The energy was sucked out of the stadium when supporters on both sides realized Haskell sophomore Matthew Williams was down on the field and slow to get up. Williams was taken to a local hospital via medflight, but his condition is improving. According to an update post from the Haskell Athletic Boosters Facebook page , Williams is reportedly awake, aware and regaining feeling throughout his body. "Matthew is upright and moving around, his scans are clear, and doctors are continuing to monitor him for a spine concussion. There is still a road ahead, so please don’t stop praying. We believe God is not finished yet. We love you Bear. Your army is behind you," read the post. “I mean, I don't know exactly what we're dealing with.
