2009 NFL Draft Team Grades – AFC North

What’s next for Mississippi State after Croom’s resignation?
For the past few days, I’ve been mulling over writing an article about Sylvester Croom’s resignation at Mississippi State, but I figured it’s about time to break my silence. I’m sad to see Croom go, to say the least. I felt like he had a long future in Starkville, and it’s a shame that things [...]
Saturday Shuffle: Upsets, upsets, and more upsets!
The Shuffle certainly has an appropriate name this week, doesn’t it?

CFB Channel Cruisin’ Week 2: Florida-Miami the headliner for a light week
The best way to describe the second week of the college football season is that it’s one of those ‘in-between’ weeks. Last weekend wasn’t the most exciting week of college football that you’ll ever see, but it was the opening weekend of the season, which makes it a special occasion. And then next week, USC-Ohio [...]
2008 Virginia Cavaliers Preview: A Rebuilding Year for the Cavaliers
In 2007, Virginia finished with a 9-4 record, but they could have just as easily finished 4-9. The Cavaliers became the first team in NCAA history to win five games by two points or less. However, a win is a win, and the Cavaliers had a chance to win the ACC Coastal Division when they [...]
