College Football Scores - Week 1 NCAA Football Results

Alabama, Texas, Florida All Win - Complete Top 20 Scores and Preview of Boise State at Virginia Tech

Clayton Browne
College football is back, and the first weekend of the 2010 NCAA football season is officially in the books. NCAA powerhouse teams continued to do well as all of the Top 20 teams won their games today, except for No. 18 UNC who was beaten 30-24 by LSU (who was ranked No. 21 so it was hardly a huge upset). The trend today was a continuation from Thursday where three out of four ranked teams won..

The first week of the 2010 college football season played out surprisingly true to form as there were many mismatches on the schedule. You can make the case for calling either LSU's win over UNC today or Utah's overtime win over No. 15 ranked Pitt on Thursday an upset, but otherwise the expected favorites all won, and in most cases dominated.

Defending champion and No.1 ranked Alabama crushed San Jose State 48-3 and made it look easy. No. 2 Ohio State dominated Marshall 45-7, and No. 4 Florida, No. 5 Texas, No. 6 TCU, and No. 7 Oklahoma all won, although none of them in particularly impressive fashion. No. 8 Nebraska easily defeated western Kentucky 49-10, No. 9 Iowa manhandled Eastern Illinois 37-7, and No. 11 Oregon looked very strong in their 72-0 demolition of New Mexico.

There is a special Monday night college football game this week, and it looks like a great match up as No. 3 Boise State travels to Fed-Ex Field in Landover, Maryland to take on No. 10 Virginia Tech. Both of these teams have legitimate BCS bowl aspirations and somebody's chances will be knocked down a notch after Monday night as something has to give. With two teams of this caliber you have to expect turnovers to be the difference in the game.
