By Ryan of The Sportmeisters Before I get into my Top 25, let me just say it was done prior to UNC-VT, but intermittent internet issues prevented me from getting this published. That said, let’s go to the rankings. 1. Texas (Last Week: 3) Next Game: 10/31 at No. 11 Oklahoma State Texas took care of business looking like the team of 2008 and for that, jumps both SEC challengers for number one. 2. Florida (Last Week: 2) Next ...

The UConn Huskies look to take on the Rutgers Scarlet Knights in a Big East battle never scene before in the history of the Big East. Uconn stilll has big hearts on the wake of Jasper Howards death and after last weeks loss to west  virginia the HUskie sexpect to do work this weekend. Cody endres is the real work point blank. He threw for 378 yards and tortured the mountaineers defense in a close lose to ...

One of the greatest spectacles in all of college football convenes on Saturday afternoon when Georgia and Florida meet in Jacksonville. The No. 1 Gators come into this game stumbling a bit after three tough games against SEC West foes, but have survived all three to remain undefeated. Georgia had a bye week last week, but is suffering through a disappointing 4-3 campaign thus far. Back to that bye week because the team with ...

The USC defense has been getting clobbered lately. No, not by Jimmy Clausen and Notre Dame, or Sean Canfield and Oregon State. But by the Los Angeles media as well as the ever-wise college football commentators on ESPN. The E stands for The Eternal as in the See-All and Know-All Sports Network. I have openly criticized Coach Carroll in a few of my articles. Nevertheless, I’m often surprised that many writers and commentators don’t look at the ...

The Alabama Football program must sense the urgency to finish well this year and get to the National Championship game. There is one reason why. The reason has twenty different meaningful components. Eryk Anders, Javier Arenas, Terrence Cody, Drew Davis, Brandon Deaderick, P.J. Fitzgerald, Baron Huber, Marquis Johnson, Mike Johnson, Tyrone King, Mike McCoy, Colin Peek, Cory Reamer, Chris Rogers, Brian Selman, Ali Sharrief, Leigh Tiffin, Roy Upchurch, Lorenzo Washington and Justin Woodall. This senior class is a ...

  Thursday afternoon Coach Paul Wulff was ready for a conference with media once again.The Washington State Cougar football coach was raring to go and seem to catch the media napping. If a Pac-10 official would have been in the room, a flag would have been thrown for either a delay or false start following unexpected silence after the first question. Those of us in the media might have been off our game, but Coach Wulff wasn't. Once the conference ...

  Los Angeles - Thursday morning was Pac-10 men's basketball media day in Southern California. All ten head coaches were on hand to give an overview of their team, the conference and the year ahead. Had a chance to sit down with the new men's basketball coach at Washington State, Ken Bone. From a personality standpoint, there are some striking similarities to the man he replaced, Tony Bennett. Bennett left WSU to take over the basketball program at Virginia. Coach ...

  Though there isn't a full compliment of conference teams in action this weekend, the Pac-10 will feature the top college game in the nation. While Arizona, Stanford and Washington rest during a bye week in their respective schedules, the rest of the conference schools will be locked up in some key battles. The way my picks have gone this season, have to concede that last week was one of my better ones with a record of 2-3. ...

Teams from the ACC and SEC match up on Saturday night when ACC leader Georgia Tech travels to Nashville to take on the Vanderbilt Commodores. The Yellow Jackets have the ACC Coastal Division title in their sights, but cannot afford a letdown against a pesky Vandy team that nearly beat South Carolina last week. The two head coaches have some history against each other competing for Southern Conference titles at Furman (Bobby Johnson) and Georgia Southern ...
