Edwin MacPhisto 0 Report post Posted October 14, 2006 Also, in a bit of an eyebrow-raiser: Rutgers is absolutely annihilating Navy, 27-0 in the 4th quarter. I picked them to win but didn't think it'd be that one-sided. They've done it almost entirely with the passing game, which is really surprising, and even more surprising: Navy's only got 110 yards rushing. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Conspiracy_Victim 0 Report post Posted October 14, 2006 As a resident A&M fan, I've gotta say that although he's been here for a few years I still can't get used to Fran's offense. A lot of times it looks like a Chinese firedrill out there. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
CanadianChris 0 Report post Posted October 14, 2006 The Missouri punter just unleashed the greatest punt I've ever seen. 79 yards, from his own 18 to the A&M 4. It just sailed over the punt returner's head; he never had a chance at it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Celtic Guardian 0 Report post Posted October 14, 2006 How is it determined what games are what station? CBS is stuck with the lousy Alabama/Ole Miss game, and ESPN gets the Florida/Auburn game. Under the SEC contract, ESPN had the right to select three of the top ten 2006 games before the season even started. Florida/Auburn was such a selection. The South Florida Sun-Sentinel did a writeup on how SEC football gets allocated by the television nets. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
nogoodnick 0 Report post Posted October 14, 2006 If I'm Adrian Peterson and I can get a top 10-15 guarantee I'm out for sure. In my opinion, when a running back can go to the NFL in the first round they should almost always do it. There's just too much of an injury risk. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Conspiracy_Victim 0 Report post Posted October 14, 2006 Peterson'll probably be a top 5-10 pick, but if I were an NFL team I'd start to get a bit concerned over his durability. He hasn't played a full season since his freshman year, has he? Today's collarbone just looked like bad luck (freak fall into the end zone? REALLY AP?) but he just can't seem to stay on the field. That being said he's got a world of talent and if I were a bad team with a mediocre/bad rushing game (hey Texans, I'm looking at you!) I'd still take him without a second thought. I'd just make sure I have some quality depth behind him. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

MFer 0 Report post Posted October 15, 2006 I think Adrian Peterson will be a great back in the NFL for the first few years but I forsee him breaking down fairly early in his career b/c of his past injury history, his punishing running style and the fact that he's tall for a typical RB, making him a easier target.

Edwin MacPhisto 0 Report post Posted October 15, 2006 Favorite inadavertently inappropriate announcer's gaffe of the week, referring to Auburn's Tray Blackmon: "You can really see the natural athletic ability of a Blackmon." Those last two runs by Florida are why I think the Gators are so strong this year. Between Wynn, Harvin, and Tebow, you have three completely different types of runners. The gameplan is so wide open, because any of these guys--or Andre Caldwell on a reverse--can break huge gains on the ground. It's like having an endless assortment of trick plays, but they're not really trick plays--they're just an incredibly varied set of options. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
