2009 Heisman Trophy Watch: Oct. 6-10
1. Tim Tebow, QB, Florida: I wasn’t exactly for Tebow taking the field against LSU, but even though he didn’t exactly have a monster game, he did more than enough and even showed a little of the Tebow that we’re used to seeing. Last Week (13-3 W at LSU): 11-16, 134 yards, TD, INT, 17 [...]
2009 Heisman Trophy Watch: Sept. 30-Oct. 3
1. Tony Pike, QB, Cincinnati: Pike didn’t have his most accurate performance at Miami (of the Ohio kind), but 270 yards and two touchdowns is solid enough to take him over a still-uncleared Tebow for top spot.

That’s right, tonight, which is [...]
Merriman thinking present, Va. Tech thinking future
Who doesn’t care about two torn knee ligaments? Shawne Merriman, that’s who. Instead of having surgery on his troublesome left knee, San Diego’s star pass rusher is ignoring the pain – and doctor’s opinions – and playing this season. Where’s Mike Gundy when you need him? He’s a man! He’s 40 24! Okay, on one [...]
2008 Virginia Tech Hokies Preview: Are the Hokies primed for a return to the ACC title game?
With an experienced group leading the way, Virginia Tech headed into the 2007 season as the consensus pick to win the ACC title. After being ranked in the top ten at the start of the season, the Hokies’ hopes for being in national title contention took a hit with a blowout loss at eventual national [...]
Tebow tops list of the country’s top 20 dual-threat quarterbacks
Having a quarterback who can beat an opponent with both his arm and his legs is one of the best weapons a coach can wish for. There are many quarterbacks around the country who have that ability, including last season’s Heisman Trophy winner Tim Tebow.
