College Football Open Thread: 2021.01.01

It’s always weird to type out 2021 for the first time, but here we are. I hope you all had a great and safe New Year’s Eve and that you are planning on black-eyed peas, furiously rubbing a rabbit’s foot, and not walking under any ladders during the course of 2021.

A few items of note that I will get to in a notebook on Monday in greater detail:

  • Cornerback Zech McPhearson declared for the NFL Draft. McPhearson was really good for Texas Tech, especially at creating turnovers. Had he grabbed that onside kick against Texas, maybe this 2020 season turns out completely different. On the grand scheme of things, Zech was really good for this team. Go chase that dream!
  • Linebacker Xavier Benson and cornerback Ja’Marcus Ingram, who followed head coach Matt Wells from Utah State, have both entered the transfer portal. Benson opted out of 2020 and Ingram had a handful of tackles in 2020 and was part of the rotation. Regardless, good luck to both men.

Here is the schedule for today’s games. I hope you all have a great day. I’ll be back with a preview of Oklahoma State vs. Texas Tech tomorrow, as these two teams resume conference play on Saturday.
