I don’t think I want to know the answer to this question. Time to bleach my eyes.

Let’s jump into this week’s Cobs.

Marshall

Not a lot of people gave a hoot about the Rice Owls this year. It didn’t seem like Marshall did either. The undefeated Thundering Herd came into this game as 24 point favorites and got shut out...by Rice. It didn’t help that Marshall quarterback Grant Wells threw for 5(!) interceptions.

Wyoming

New Mexico snapped their 13-game losing streak with a win over Wyoming. The Cowboys were 17 point favorites in this game and they couldn’t even score 17 points.

Virginia Tech

Sprinklers going off during a game? Bad management by the Hokie staff.

At least the Russian announcers seem to be amused by this mishap.

Louisiana Long Snapper Paul Boudreaux

I am just surprised he wasn’t replaced after it happened the first time.

They finally figured out an interesting solution after it happened three times.

LSU Wide Receiver Kayshon Boutee

Thankfully his teammate picked up the ball in the end zone or else this touchdown would not have counted.

TCU Running Back Darwin Barlow

What was he thinking?

ESPN

Interviewing Notre Dame quarterback Ian Book live during the Clemson-Virginia Tech game. This doesn’t make sense at all.

We have an exquisite selection of cob nominations for Week 14 of College Football but unfortunately you can only pick one.

BONUS

In case you missed the ending of BYU-Coastal Carolina.

Here are some refs getting drilled with the football.

And some deflected passes which led to catches in the end zone.

And one crazy catch...wow
