Ohio St. 21 - 0 Florida Atlantic (8:19 left in 1st Quarter)

I got back from lunch, turned on the TV, saw Gus Johnson back for another year, and saw what the OSU helmets look like at the beginning of the year before anyone has earned any stickers.  Then this happened:

13:07 left in 1st quarter:  Justin Fields runs 51 yards for a touchdown (OSU 7-0 FAU)
11:05 left in 1st quarter:  Fields throws 25-yd TD pass to Jeremy Ruckert (OSU 14 - 0 FAU)
9:12 left in 1st quarter:  Fields throws 32-yd TD pass to Binjimen Victor (OSU 21 - 0 FAU)

At this point, the ESPN Gamecast gives OSU a 99.4 percent chance of victory.  That's good enough for me.  It's a beautiful day, and I'm prepared to take my chances that FAU will not launch a monster comeback.

Oh, wait.  Fields (of Carl J. Harrison High School in Kennesaw, Ga.)  just threw a 29-yd touchdown pass to Chris Olave (of Mission Hills High School in San Marcos, Calif.)  Bucks now lead 28-0.  I'm guessing they will retain the UCFC for another week.
