College football scores games updates Kansas State vs. Missouri Georgia vs. South Carolina and more



On paper, the schedule isn't as exciting as last week. But these overlooked weekends are often when the some of the most shocking upsets of the season emerge.

And with eight different ranked teams going on the road to face unranked opponents, at least one major surprise feels likely.

LSU was ranked No. 5 to start the year but came up short in a high-profile matchup with Florida State in Week 1. Now down at No. 14, LSU has the chance to start gaining confidence as SEC play gets underway. Mississippi State is in its first season under Zach Arnett, who took over after the sudden death of Mike Leach. Arnett has moved away from Leach's famous Air Raid offense and made the Bulldogs into a run-heavy team. It has worked through two games as the Bulldogs are off to a 2-0 start. Now they will take a step up in competition and put that new offense to the test against LSU.

Kansas State won the Big 12 and went to the Sugar Bowl last fall and is now off to a 2-0 start in 2023, the program's fifth season under Chris Klieman. The K-State offense if off to a strong start behind the RB duo of DJ Giddens and Treshaun Ward, while QB Will Howard has thrown for 547 yards and five TDs with two rushing scores. K-State will face much tougher opposition this week as it heads on the road to face Missouri. The Wildcats blasted Missouri 40-12 in Manhattan last year and the Tigers are looking for payback. Missouri hasn't been anywhere near as dominant as K-State as the Tigers topped South Dakota 35-10 in Week 1 before an underwhelming 23-19 win over Middle Tennessee last week.

Time: 3:30 p.m. | TV: CBS | Line: UGA -27.5 | Total: 54.5

On the heels of consecutive national titles, top-ranked Georgia has flown under the radar through two weeks. The Bulldogs predictably blew out UT Martin and Ball State, winning by a combined margin of 93-10. UGA has been dealing with quite a few injuries in the early going. While WR Ladd McConkey's status is still up in the air, Kirby Smart said RB Daijun Edwards is expected to return for the SEC opener vs. South Carolina. The Gamecocks got off to a rough start to this season with an ugly 31-17 loss to North Carolina. Last week, the Gamecocks trailed Furman 14-7 midway through the second quarter but were able to storm back and win 47-21. This is obviously a far tougher opponent for South Carolina.

Time: 5 p.m. | TV: Peacock | Line: UW -16.5 | Total: 57.5

Last year, a ranked Michigan State team came to Seattle and lost to a then-downtrodden Washington team. The script has basically flipped this season as a top 10 Huskies team is riding high headed to East Lansing to face a Spartans team in turmoil. Michigan State, though off to a 2-0 start, saw head coach Mel Tucker get suspended last weekend after being accused of sexual harassment. With Tucker suspended, MSU secondary coach Harlon Barnett was promoted to interim head coach and Mark Dantonio -- MSU's head coach from 2007 to 2019 -- is back on staff. How will the Spartans respond without their head coach?

Time: 7 p.m. | TV: ESPN | Line: UT -6.5 | Total: 58.5

Tennessee is looking to get back into the national conversation after an awesome 11-win 2022 campaign. The Vols are off to a 2-0 start in 2023, but last weekend's 30-13 win over Austin Peay was a bit underwhelming. Joe Milton has been solid in his first year as UT's starting QB. How will Milton handle the toughest road SEC environment he's faced in his career? Tennessee hasn't won in Gainesville since 2003. Florida is 1-1 after losing at Utah in a mistake-filled mess to open the season. Will the Gators be able to avoid those mistakes at home and pull off a big upset?

Osho Quotes on Meditation

Osho Quotes on Meditation If tea-drinking can become a meditation, then anything can become a meditation — cooking or washing your clothes, any activity can be transformed into meditation. And the real sannyasin, the real seeker, will transform all his acts into meditation. Only then, when meditation spreads over all your life, not only when you are awake in the day — slowly slowly it starts penetrating and permeating your being in sleep too — when it becomes just part of you, like breathing, like your heartbeat, then, only, have you attained to the discipline, to the essential discipline of Zen. Meditation means: drop all thoughts, drop all ideologies, drop all knowledge. Drop the mind itself. The mind is constantly talking. If the inner talk can drop even for a single moment you will be able to have a glimpse of no-mind. That’s what meditation is all about. The state of no-mind is the right state. It is your state. Millions of people miss meditation because meditation has taken on

33 Crore Gods (Devi / Devtas) of Hindus

33 Crore Gods of Hindus For the believers of God, it is an accepted faith across the globe that God is one. Hindus too believe so, but then there remains a question often shaped as a mockery over Hindus about the various practices of worship rendered to innumerous God in their faith. And this question is often thrown by people, who are philosophically and religiously recognized. How come Hindu religion has 33 crore Gods? Is it sensible at all to believe and practice this? I have a question – How can one decide what is sensible and what is not, particularly when none of those great thinkers have attained perfection in realization of God, none of them have seen God, none of them have heard God. There are numerous instances where religion, religious books and their beliefs have tried to define God. Criticism is an easy thing to do but we have coins with two sides always. Realization of the positive side and its practice is not only hard to recognize but difficult to accept as well. Critic

Osho on Witnessing technique

Osho on Witnessing technique – You can witness breathing, you can witness the thought process in OSHO INSIGHTS ON MEDITATION Osho – Societies will come and go. You will take birth and you will die and many lives will come and go, and many, many clouds will pass through you. But the inner sky – AKSHAT – remains uncorrupted, virgin. But you can become identified with clouds. You can begin to feel that ”I am the clouds”. Everyone is identified with his own thoughts which are nothing more than clouds. You say, ”my thought,” and if someone attacks your thought, you never feel that your thought is being attacked – you are being attacked. The sky is fighting – fighting for clouds because some cloud has been attacked. The sky feels, ”I am attacked!” The sky was there when there was no cloud, the sky will be there when there is no cloud. Clouds add nothing to the sky. And when clouds are no more, nothing is lost. The sky remains itself totally. This is the nature – the inner sky, the inn
