Dont kick anyone with those Week 1 knee-jerk reactions.Theres no time like the present to jump to conclusions in college football, but some claims have more validity than others. Heres a look at the biggest overreactions from the first games of the season, and whether or not you should buy into them:ACCSnap judgment: The ACC has two top-four teams? FSU and Clemson 2, SEC 0. The ACCs heavyweights survived scares but came out unscathed against what will be some of their toughest competition this year outside of each other. Clemson escaped with a 19-13 win over Auburn, and FSU knocked off Ole Miss, the only team in the SEC that has been able to beat Alabama the past two seasons. If FSU or Clemson can finish the season unbeaten, and the other finishes with just one loss to the ACC champ, it will force the committee to seriously consider both teams. Of course, the leagues runner-up must be unequivocally one of the four best teams in the country to unseat a Power 5 conference champ, but after just one week, it at least kept that hope alive.Verdict: Not an overreactionBIG 12Snap judgment: Texas is back Even coach Charlie Strong knows there is still plenty to prove. Asked after the game if he feels any relief, Strong chuckled. No, he said, because Ive still got a few more to go, so I dont have any relief. Its a long season, and as impressive as the Longhorns double-overtime win against Notre Dame was, it will be meaningless unless they can parlay that into a Big 12 title. After next weeks game against UTEP, Texas season could be defined by a string of games against Cal, Oklahoma State and Oklahoma. ESPNs Football Power Index favors both Oklahoma and Oklahoma State in those games. Lets see how the Longhorns fare through that stretch before declaring a return to the sports elite.Verdict: OverreactionBIG TENSnap judgment: Michigan is ready for the next step under Jim Harbaugh The big question heading into this season was if Michigans play could match its coachs personality. The Wolverines left no doubt they can play, too, dominating Hawaii in a 63-3 win -- Michigans most lopsided victory since 1979. They didnt even have to punt. But they were playing Hawaii, a team that had just traveled 20,000 miles and was overmatched from the start. Its quite possible Michigan will be 7-0 heading into its Oct. 29 game at Michigan State, but much like Iowa last year, we wont know how good Michigan really is this year until it starts playing ranked competition.Verdict: OverreactionPAC-12Snap judgment: The power still lies in the North No. 16 UCLA, No. 20 USC and Arizona all lost, while No. 8 Stanford, Cal, No. 24 Oregon and No. 14 Washington took care of business. The top two teams, Stanford and Washington, both earned nonconference wins against Power 5 opponents. The selection committee isnt going to penalize USC for losing to the defending national champs, but its possible USC could start 1-3 with games against Utah State, Stanford and Utah looming. The North is still home to the leagues highest-ranked teams, and theres no sign of that changing anytime soon.Verdict:?Not an overreactionSECSnap judgment: The SEC is overrated An unprecedented seven SEC teams lost their openers: Ole Miss, Vanderbilt, Mississippi State, Auburn, Kentucky, Missouri, and No. 5 LSU. Since the SEC re-expanded to 12 teams in 1992, there had never been a season where seven SEC teams lost their season openers -- until now. It wasnt just that they lost; it was who they lost to. Mississippi State fell to South Alabama and Kentucky lost to Southern Miss. Even Tennessee looked underwhelming and needed overtime to beat Appalachian State. Ole Miss blew a 28-13 halftime lead against FSU before losing 45-34. Texas A&M and Georgia had nice wins, but LSU was also a huge disappointment, continuing to look stale and predictable on offense as quarterback Brandon Harris threw two picks. After one week, its Alabama and everyone else.Verdict: Not an overreactionGROUP OF 5Snap judgment: Houston is top four material What was so intriguing about Houstons upset of No. 3-ranked Oklahoma was that it wasnt a fluke. Houston looked scary good, but it has to continue to win and keep quarterback Greg Ward Jr. healthy in order to crack the top four. He had an MRI on his throwing shoulder Sunday and missed most of practice, but coach Tom Herman told the Houston Chronicle it wasnt serious. Still, the only time Houston has lost under Herman was last year against UConn, when Ward was out with an injury. ESPNs Football Power Index gives Houston a greater than 50 percent chance to win each remaining game except Louisville (36.4 percent). If the Cougars go undefeated, theres no question the selection committee would seriously consider them for the top four. One loss and its going to need a lot of help.Verdict: Not an overreactionNOTRE DAMESnap judgment: The Irish are toast Notre Dame is certainly in a precarious playoff position after their double overtime loss to Texas, but if they run the table, it would be very difficult for the selection committee to leave them out -- especially if Texas parlays that success into a Big 12 title. Dont forget that Oklahoma lost to Texas last year, too, and was still a semifinalist. Its going to be difficult, though, for Notre Dame to win out, as it still has to play Michigan State, Stanford and USC. The margin for error is gone, but Notre Dame isnt. ESPNs FPI gives the Irish a better than 50 percent chance of winning every remaining game.Verdict: Overreaction Deutschland Trikot Toni Kroos . As he recorded his 23rd and 24th points of the evening, a segment of the sellout Air Canada Centre crowd expressed their appreciation for the Raptors point guard with a smattering of MVP chants. Trikot Marvin Plattenhardt . The Montreal Canadiens announced on Friday that the veteran forward will return to the teams line-up on Saturday night when the Habs visit the Nashville Predators. http://www.fussballwmtrikotsdeutschland.de/trikot-matthias-ginter.html .Y. - New Orleans forward Anthony Davis was chosen Friday to replace the injured Kobe Bryant in the NBA All-Star game that will be played in his home city. Deutschland Trikot Julian Draxler . Numbers Game examines the deal that sees Michael Del Zotto and Kevin Klein switch places. The Predators Get: D Michael Del Zotto. Deutschland Trikot Jerome Boateng . Aaron Harrison scored a 22 points for Kentucky (6-1), which has won four in a row following a Nov. 12 loss to current No. 1 Michigan State. Julius Randle overcame a scoreless first half and added his sixth double-double in as many games with 14 points and 10 rebounds. No one climbed Mt. Midoriyama for $1 million in Season 8 of American Ninja Warrior, which was expected but disappointing nonetheless. Veteran Drew Drechsel and wunderkind Daniel Gil were the only two competitors to survive the brutal test of Stage 2 in the season finale, which aired Monday. Their Stage 3 quests, however, came up short, and both of them ended up in the water.Geoff Britten and Isaac Caldiero both conquered the four-stage course last season, and Caldiero became the first million-dollar winner in the shows history.?This season was as compelling as it was historic. There were fresh faces and new challenges, but above all else, ANW Season 8 will be known for its ground-breaking accomplishments by women.While Jessie Graffs star shined brightest, all of the ANW women proved their athletic chops this season. Meagan Martin hit a city-qualifying buzzer for the third consecutive season, two women ran in the Los Angeles city finals, four women ran in the Philadelphia city finals, and three women punched their own tickets to Vegas. To top it off, a record 18 women competed in the national finals.I think this season was a game-changer for female competitors, Erica Cook said. Girls have been breaking through in the past few years but falling just short of competing on par with the men.When Kacy Catanzaro became the first woman to finish a qualifying course in Season 6, she opened the door for other firsts and helped the ninja community understand that female competitors should be taken seriously. Her triumph was soon followed by Martin and Michelle Warnky doing the same.Catanzaro went on to become the first woman to complete a city finals course. (Shes still the only one to do so.) Martin bested the Jumping Spider in Vegas, but for a few years, Stage 1 was left unconquered by a woman.That changed with Jessie Graff. The 5-foot-8 powerhouse athlete blazed through Stage 1, becoming the first woman to finish the course and placing fifth overall. No one was happier for her than Warnky, her competitor and friend.I loved seeing her run on Stage 2! I knew she had worked so hard for it, Warnky said.Last year, both were unable to beat what Warnky considered to be the easiest Stage 1 in the shows history. But this year, Graff hit the buzzer on what was arguably thhe hardest Stage 1 in the shows history.dddddddddddd A record-low of 17 competitors finished the course to advance to Stage 2. Her completion, and this season as a whole, prove that women of ANW are capable of challenging the men.I think [this season] has given girls and women out there more confidence and that with hard work and dedication, anything is possible, said Rachael Goldstein, one of the four women to reach the Philadelphia city finals. Women can compete alongside some of the strongest men, and rank near the top.I know that this season has given me more confidence anyways. Before this season, I was unsure of myself and my ability to compete alongside the best ninjas in the country.For many of the women competing in Vegas, Graffs completing Stage 1 was just the beginning. Shes inspired them to chase their own dreams.This is what some of them had to say about Graff:She is truly an incredible athlete and inspiration for all the ninja ladies to get there, too. -- Tiana WebberleyShe isnt just an inspiration to kids and adults training to reach fitness goals, but to the men and women who compete on the show as well. -- Rachael GoldsteinShe has finally let the females see past the mental block weve all had about Stage 1, and now Stage 2 is the next to be conquered. Most of the females who make it to the Vegas rounds tend to all be thinking, I just want to beat Stage 1! and I personally love that the standard has risen and that it will forever change the mentality of the female competitors, plus the viewers at home. -- Cassie CraigJessie is leading the way for what many women are capable of accomplishing in Ninja Warrior. -- Kirsti PrattIn my opinion, she showed everyone that gender doesnt necessarily confine you. If you work hard enough, anything is possible. -- Erica CookWe always knew women have been fully capable of beating Stage 1, but now that Jessie has finally proved that, its set this awesome and inspiring bar for all other female ninjas. -- Allyssa BeirdIt was an amazing season of American Ninja Warrior. Hopefully next year, there will be even more women making history. Perhaps one of them will even beat Stage 2.
