Kevin Roberts’ 2009 NFL Mock Draft (3 Rounds – 4/24/09) – Round 3
Go Back to Round 2 Round 3 65. Detroit Lions – Fili Moala, DT, USC Just one of the many USC prospects, Moala has been overlooked all the way into the third round. He is a massive man with good strength, and should give the Lions an inside presence they haven’t had since Shaun Rogers. [...]
Score one for the little guy? Utah proves they’re worthy of the big time
Four years ago, Utah was a team led by a hotshot young coach, with a cute gimmicky offense and a future #1 pick in the shotgun. The Utes rolled through their schedule and slid up the polls through the season, and when all was said and done, they became the first ‘BCS buster.’ The reward [...]
College Football Coaches Hot Seat Watch
With several coaches having already resigned or been handed their walking papers before the end of the season, I thought it’d be a good idea to keep track of all of the changes and speculate on the ones to come in one nice, tidy section. This section will be updated regularly, whether it’s to add [...]
Florida-Oklahoma championship showdown headlines BCS matchups
There was a small chance that the BCS could’ve went a little nutty and spit out an Oklahoma-Texas rematch for the national championship, but after the coaches’ poll revealed Oklahoma and Florida to be 1-2, there was little surprise as to who would be playing for the national title. Of course, even Urban Meyer probably [...]
College Football Roundup: It’s not funny anymore, ACC
This weekend’s college football schedule was pretty light, but there was no shortage of action. There weren’t any earth-shattering upsets, which is why the top half of the new polls are mostly intact heading into next weekend, which will see several big games (Oklahoma-Texas Tech, Penn State-Michigan State, Cincinnati-Pittsburgh, Central Michigan-Ball State). I’ll leave the [...]
Does anyone want to win the ACC?
Before August 30, everything looked to be cut and dry in the ACC. Clemson was the undisputed best team, and the Tigers were not only touted to be the class of the ACC, but also as a potential darkhorse national title contender, with Cullen Harper, James Davis, and C.J. Spiller leading the way. Then the [...]
Another top-10 team bites the dust on Thursday night
If you’re a ranked team, and you’ve got a potentially dangerous Thursday night game left on your schedule this season, you should probably start doing all you can to petition to have your game moved. It’s been a season full of upsets so far, but little ol’ Thursday night has kicked off the upset specials [...]
Saturday Shuffle: Upsets, upsets, and more upsets!
The Shuffle certainly has an appropriate name this week, doesn’t it? Instead of doing the usual Saturday Shuffle tonight, I thought I’d devote tonight’s shuffle to all of the shuffling and shaking up that there’ll be in the upcoming polls thanks to an upset-filled week to cap September. Every college football season, there seems to [...]
CFB Channel Cruisin’ Week 5: Oregon St.-USC, Georgia-Alabama headline this week
Last week, college football TV viewers were treated to a few exciting matchups (LSU’s last-minute win over Auburn), some big performances (Javon Ringer’s 200-yard day against Notre Dame), and a dud or two (Florida putting Tennessee over their knee in Knoxville). This week, there are quite a few intriguing matchups. We’re starting to really get [...]
CFB Channel Cruisin’ Week 4: Rivalries and non-conference matchups highlight this week’s slate
After an exciting week last week, there’s no game that’s the caliber of USC-Ohio State, but there’s not a letdown in the least. This weekend’s slate offers up several rivalry games, a few key early conference matchups, and some good non-conference showdowns as well, and it all gets started tonight. That’s right, tonight, which is [...]
