OB, you prick on DT Clifford. Then to get kicked in the nuts by the CPU and lose DT Blount to Bama. Wow that just has me hot right now. That is 0 for 3 on DT and I was #1 on atleast 2 of them.

Just reloading, they will redshirt and then replace current juniors DT Jesse Williams (96 OVR) and RE Chris Haynes (94 OVR). Not sure yet if Estes will play LE or RE however, he looks more suited for the strong side as I would like more speed on the back side.

A midweek commit from a MLB takes a little of the sting out of losing those 2 LBs to TCU and Stanford, though the 3* that i lost to stanford is a absolute monster, not having a pipeline to CA hurt me big time on him, he hated all of my pitches and must have been V. High on coach xp (c+) and other stupid things FSU is C+ at for no reason.

What the heck is going on with alabama, how have we not beaten them into 5 or 4* prestige status yet lol, they are still 6* and #2 in the country!

Wisconsin defeats rival Minnesota to earn the 2014 Paul Bunyan Axe winning 52-0. In the win, the Badgers lost starting HB Deon Brown to injury with a broken tibia; Brown might be able to return in time for bowl season but not any sooner. However, his loss might be a blessing in disguise as HB James White stepped up in his absence carrying the ball 14 times for 159 yards with 3 touchdowns. Third stringer Brandon Mangum also added 10 carries for 90 yards with 1 touchdown.

In attendance for the win were key recruits:
CB - Joel Bush
DE/DT - Kenny Quinn
T/G - Joey Hancock
WR - Patrick Allen
T - Stephen Robinson
OLB - Maurice Meeks
OLB - Maurice Jones
TE - Kevin Robertson

Look for at least 3 or 4 commits after their recent visit to Madison.

yea, fsu never has any rivalry games before week 9 except for miami, and clemson is the other one. week 13 is way to far away for UF :/ and UVA is only on the schedule once every 6 years it seems so I never ever get huge commitment weekends like other schools.

Honestly even Week 8 is almost too late for me. I lost a DE this week but had I had him in for a visit earlier, he probably would have committed.

Probably the only advantage I get at Wisconsin is that both of my rivals are mediocre CPU teams (Minnesota & Iowa) so I can easily offer the winning record versus rivals.

my other problem this year was just that the guys good enough to play for FSU were just not from pipeline states this year, i was going to oklahoma, michigan, alabama (which should be a pipeline next year) and hitting like 330 point recruiting calls, i mean that DE i just lost to michigan i had a 329 point call in week6 and a 315 call in week 7 lol, no chance to keep him vs an X2

Due to injuries, the usual CPU depth chart disaster, and usage of No Huddle, Oklahoma State starts their fourth drive of the game with their backup TE at RG and 52 OVR FB at RT.

No wonder my defensive line looks superhuman right now.

Despite turning the ball over 4 times, twice inside the Penn State 20, Michigan is able to get a two point conversion with nine seconds left to take the win 29-28 in Happy Valley.

The Michigan defense held strong early in the game, but ended up giving up the lead with just over three minutes to go. While sending the offensive unit onto the field you could overhear Coach Oneback yelling to his players that they were going to milk the clock and score with as little time left as possible, with nine seconds remaining junior wide receiver Ronnie Lewis broke free of the jam and senior quarterback Devin Gardner fit the ball between two converging defenders for a nine yard touchdown.

Gardner had his most effecient game yet completing 22 of 26 passes for 284 yards and three touchdowns. Ronnie Lewis added 100 yards and a touchdown while tight end Joel Brown pitched in 56 yards and a touchdown despite getting injured in the first half and having to sit out the remainder of the game.

Great game Snoop, I was sweating bullitts on that last drive.

It's not a bog problem, I got a couple more 4* DB's I expect to pick up. I think theres one or two CB's left too. I actually didn't need any CB's and am having a pretty good recruiting year. Unfortunately the positions I needed I didn't score many 4*'s, mostly 3's. But I should have some good decisions to make come cut players time and my depth in 1 or two seasons should be comparable to the Chesapeake Bay. I just need to make sure I rotate players and get them some experience.

With the win over Penn State, Michigan controls its destiny to the Big 10 title and a Rose Bowl berth, narrow victories by a combined six points over Wisconsin and Penn State set the table for an undefeated Big 10 record with only Iowa, Northwestern, Indiana and Ohio State remaining on the schedue with a combined 11-12 record. With the Rose Bowl berth, Michigan looks to face the winner of the Oklahoma/USC game next week.

Wasn't It Supposed to Be Bad? Oklahoma limited to 43 OVR QB, rolls over Oregon 56-17

George Gray wasn't good as our QB, but still managed to fire a 74 yard TD pass to Kenny Stills, who did all the work. Gray was a poor 3-for-9 passing with 2 INTs, and that TD. Gray is kinda quick for his 6'7" size, and ran for 44 yards.

Brennan Clay dominated once more for 285 yards rushing and 4 TDs on 19 carries. Roy Finch took it 9 times for 118 yards and 3 TDs. 260lb bruiser Austin Haywood whose carries have increased with the lack of QBs, rushed for 29 yards on 8 carries.

On defense, SS Tony Jefferson and LB Brian Jefferson recorded INTs both in the red zone, and Russ Abrams forced and recovered a fumble in the Oregon backfield.

The Sooners rushed for 500 yards without 10 yards of losses by non-RBs. 95 percent run FTW.
