Going through yesterday's box scores, found a few of these:

UCF out gained Ucon 429-327 losing 29-37, -3 TO
Pit out gained Duke 594-438 and lost 48-51 in 2OT. Duke < 20 mins TOP
Temple was out gained by a whopping 428-135 and somehow still beat #21 ECU 20-10. -5 TO
In a shocking box score, ULM out gained hapless Texas A&M 347-243 but still lost 16-21. Where have you gone Kenny Trill?
Purdue out gained Neb 340-297 and lost 35-14
UNLV lost 31-28 to New Mex, but out gained them 485-306
SJ St. out gained CSU 493-403 losing 38-31
So Miss out gained UTEP 402-234 but were -4 TO losing 14-35
Az St. out gained Utah 444-241 but failed to covers winnning only 19-16 in OT

Not a misleading score at all, but what happened last night in Fresno as Wyoming freshman Brian Hill seet a MWC record with 387 all purpose yards in his first career start(281 rushing & 106 receiving) as the Cowboys amassed 694 yards while walloping Fresno 45-17

Uga -fla; should have been 50-7

Not sure about that...but UGA tacked on an "oh by the way" score w/ 7 seconds left.

I don't understand that either. Richt had his team playing like they had a chance to score 3 times with less than 2 minutes left. He risked his starters (possible injuries), including his starting QB and RB, just to tack on a score to make it look closer. Selfish coaching right there....

Pitt lost to Duke but Pitt missed a chip shot 26 yd fg at the end of regulation that would have won the game. Ironically enough, the name of the Pitt kicker is "blewitt"

"Temple was out gained by a whopping 428-135 and somehow still beat #21 ECU 20-10. -5 TO"

Didn't expect such a difference in yardage but did expect Temple to win that one. ECU a fair weather bird and they actually fumbled the ball seven times, lost 5 of them. As soon as I saw the weather report for Philly Saturday morning, knew it was a wrap. What's funny is the line moved from 7 to 10+ by kickoff, unfreakin real.

Score should have been 49-14 or worse. Nebraska's average field position was the 50 yard line. Offense has some serious execution issues.

Abdullah went out with an injury in the 1st Q., I believe.
