Duke Is Not Good At Football
OMG Duke’s awful. They got housed by FCS Richmond last week. They’re losing to Army 10-7 at the time of this writing. We love David Cutcliffe, but his team’s really digressing. QB Thadeus Lewis is a proficient 5 of 16 for 60 yards in the game. Cut may challenge UVA’s Al Groh for ACC futility.
Spoke too [...]
Why Michigan/ Notre Dame is Bigger than USC/ Ohio State
The game of the century of the week this week is in Ann Arbor, not in Columbus. Here’s why the Wolverines and Irish game is the one that matters most:
Competition: Most of the free world believes that USC will run away with this one. We’re in that group. The Trojans return All-American C Kristofer O’Dowd [...]
Tennessee/UCLA Preview
Revenge, Revenge, Revenge. That is what Tennessee players and fans are thinking in this game. Almost every Tennessee player that was interviewed this week brought up the fact that this team is motivated because of the embarrassing loss to a poor UCLA team. Many Tennessee fans think that if Tennessee would have beat UCLA, Phillip [...]
Matchup to Watch Today: Jimmy Clausen vs. Greg Robinson
Notre Dame’s offense is loaded with talent at almost every position and the offense put up 510 total yards in last weekend’s win over Nevada. Jimmy Clausen threw for 315 yards and four touchdowns and Clausen will have one of the best seasons of any quarterback in the nation. Notre Dame faces a better defense [...]
Player to Watch Today: Noel Devine
Many people are picking East Carolina to beat West Virginia today and I don’t understand why people are picking against the Mountaineers this week. We are not big fans of West Virginia’s coach Bill Stewart, but Stewart will lead the Mountaineers to a good bowl game this season. Remember that SEC fans never give LSU’s [...]
Bosworth Calls Tennessee Fans Rednecks
Tennessee fans have a new enemy on UCLA’s team. UCLA defensive end Korey Bosworth said, “There will be 100,000 rednecks against us down there, and those are my people.” Bosworth made sure to include himself as part of the rednecks, but you know that Tennessee fans will not enjoy this quote. Will Bryce Brown run [...]
Cox Has Rotator Cuff Problems
Georgia quarterback Joe Cox said his rotator cuff is causing him problems, but the quarterback is expected to start today against South Carolina. This will be a very ugly SEC game and South Carolina’s defense should cause problems for Cox and Georgia’s offense. Expect Cox to struggle for the second week in a row.
College Football Weekend Predictions
Here are the predictions and thoughts on this weekend’s games:
Â
• #3 USC vs. #8 Ohio State: There is nothing like watching a college football game between two top-ten teams in week two. USC destroyed Ohio State 35-3 last year in Los Angeles, but USC is currently led by a freshman quarterback in Matt Barkley. Pete [...]
Kiffin #8 On Coaches Hot Seat?
We mentioned in earlier posts that we think Al Groh, Dan Hawkins, Steve Kragthorpe and Ralph Friedgen will all get fired once the season ends. It is one thing to back up these statements with facts, but it is another thing to make the same statement about a coach that is in his first season. You could [...]
Oklahoma is Done
Unlike many people, I still thought Oklahoma had a chance to make the BCS National Championship after Sam Bradford injured his shoulder on Saturday. There is almost a team every year that makes the BCS National Championship while having at least one loss. Remember in 2007 when LSU won the national title while having two [...]
