This game makes me LOL its so unreal at times.

VT beats Marshall 66-45. The Hokies defenders, namely the CB's looked like a freshman team. Meanwhile the Herd's WR's looked NFL type WR's as we couldn't cover them if we wanted to.

Sophmore QB Logan Thomas had a big game because the Herd defense decided to send 7-8 defenders at a time so Thomas just had to lob it up to the uncovered man each time. Evans showed the fans that he is more than capable of shouldering the run game despite the team losing all-everything Williams to the draft. He would carry for 157 yards and a score.

We get ready for the Dukies next week

Ohio State rolls, 45-14.

After 113 yards in two drives, Pepe Pearson gave the Buckeye coaching staff quite a scare in the 2nd quarter when he limped to the sidelines with a bruised elbow. The coaches decided to keep him on the bench for the rest of the game.

Before leaving the game, Pearson rushed for 127 yards on 10 carries and added 3 TDs. Backup tailback Joe Montgomery added 79 yards on 11 carries and 1 TD. Matt Keller and Charlie Sanders also added to the Buckeyes total of 267 rushing yards on the day.

Joe Germaine was efficient, throwing 11-16 for 210 yards with 1 TD and 1 INT. Germaine's stats would have been even more impressive if not for a 40+ yard pass that bounced off the head of intended receiver TE John Lumpkin.

The Buckeyes visit Coral Gables next week in an early contest that could define their chances this season.

#15 Oklahoma steamrolls UL-Monroe 59-0

It didn't even take Landry Jones two quarters to throw 4 TDs and over 200 yards as Jones started off the season right and was pulled, not for his performance, but to get away from possible injury along with other key players. Oklahoma found out that they also have some great freshman who are making big impacts, too. And one of them has made some RB controversy.

Brennan Clay showed some flashes of Adrian Peterson as the freshman RB touted UL-Monroe on 15 carries for 117 yards and 2 TDs. The 6'0" 194lb freshman had a pair of 20+ yard runs. His freshman partner in crime Roy Finch had 50 yards on 6 carries and broke 7 tackles, and had 9.4 yards per punt return with 24 being his longest. Jermie Calhoun in 1.5 quarters had 59 yards on 11 carries and a TD. He also caught one pass for 11 yards.

Oklahoma also found a new recieving threat besides Dejuan Miller and Ryan Broyles. Broyles only had 2 catches but he was injured in the first quarter and was kept out to keep away from further injury. Dejuan Miller did have 7 grabs for 143 yards and 2 TDs, but freshman TE/WR Trey Millard, the 6'2" 251lb hard-hitting TE and over-sized but quick WR caught 7 passes for 83 yards and 2 TDs. Millard had one mistake dropping a possible third TD as he dropped a pass near the sideline at the ULM 4 yard line, leading to Jermie Calhoun's TD run a few plays later.

Three Oklahoma QBs finished with passer ratings above 200. Jones went 17-24 for 221 yards and 4 TDs. Allen went 5-6 for 77 yards and a TD and Bell threw one pass for 19 yards and also ran for 13.

gg kingpin, good luck in the rest of the year.

FSU wins 41-7 though it was a tight ball game until a pick 6 by lamarcus joyner in the 3rd quarter to make it 31-7, TTU was driving and at the 15 so i was a 14 point swing type of play.

EJ Manuel threw for 150 yards and 1 TD (0 ints)
Sr Bert Reed had 2 catches for 57 including a pretty TD catch where he broke a tackle and sprinted the final 15 yards for a TD
Sr RB Jermaine Thomas had a field day running for 190 yards and 2 TDs on 16 carries

Nigel Bradham also pitched in a int and true freshman DE Brian Hunt (6'7 230) was always in the right position, only gave up one big play to his side of the field and had 3 tackles, 1 TFL, and 3 good shots on the QB forcing tipped/bad passes.

I just realized one of the WR's that torched me from Marshall I know. I knew Dobson since he was 6, grew up on the street I lived on until I moved up to Maryland.

He should be faster than the game listed him and he's not from Cheat Lake lol...thats about 3 and half hours away from where he lived.

Michigan has a painful first half at home in the rain against Eastern Michigan, then kicks it into gear in the second half to win 31-6.

Michael Cox gains over 100 yards and true freshmen Nick Cleveland rushes 7 times for 73 yards and a touchdown.

#1 Texas slaps the #2 Crimson Tide around 55-13 in Austin. The Longhorns trailed 10-0 midway through the first quarter and ended the game on a 55-3 run. Junior WR Marquise Goodwin embarassed the Alabama secondary....racking up 212 receiving yards and 3 TDs on 6 receptions. Redshirt freshman MLB Jordan Hicks started off his career with a bang....totaling 9 tackles (all solo....including 5 for loss) and an interception in the endzone that was returned 40 yards. Next Saturday, the defending national champion Longhorns will take on #11 TCU at 2:30pm central on ABC.

Penn State knocks off USC 28-14. Good game Snoop - it was a tight battle. USC took the rock and methodically moved down the field. Got into the redzone and threw to a wide open TE and it hit him in the back of the head. Redeemed the next play as Prater caught a 7 yard TD that if the PSU LB would have waved his hand he would have swatted it.

PSU marched right back and tied it up. 2nd quarter PSU won scoring twice to the Trojans 1 and took a half time lead 21-14. PSU added another score in the 2nd half and cruised.

Biggest difference in the game, the USC defense couldn't get off the field on 3rd down. At least 5 times it was 3rd and plus 7 and all of them were conversions. Even had 2 3rd and plus 10 and still couldn't stop him.

No time to think about it though, Michigan in Week 2.

Great game, my tough running game was another small factor as Backup RB Beachum ran as well as I've seen from any HB I've used in this game this year. He was awesome, ran with power, and a little shake as well which was fun. I posted a vid of one of his many tough runs.

Wedderburn was getting seperation from your secondary on third downs that was also the key, He ended with 4 catches but 3 of them came on third downs and all were first downs.

PSU was 10 for 11 on third down's for the game.

Barkley looked rattled at times, throwing behind open WR's. His 3 picks, 2 inside the 20yd line of PSU was a big factor as well. Great game though and GL the rest of the year!

I had a couple drives where I struggled against UL-Monroe but I seemed to wear them down as the game went on. I had no problems with their spread offense unlike Toledo, Toledo had a few good guys while UL Monroe was led by a like mid-60s rated QB who made alot of bad decisions.

I just need to know that I am making progress on recruits...I've got a lot of needs this year and I've probably got the toughest recruiting job with my pipelines being California, Texas, Ohio, Michigan and Florida. Too many user teams I have to recruit against.

I've got one motto though....Just keep winning!

I think because he didn't relay how vital it was that he play last night - "its my fault, i did not impress upon escobar that he was the last one left on psn last night when i chatted with him. "

JeffHCross
08-31-2010, 11:34 AM
For my 2 cents ... it's nobody's fault that Escobar didn't know he was the last one. Dynasty Wire has the option to let us know if we're the last player remaining, and I'm sure if he'd been able to play last night, he would have doen so.

Besides, it's not FSU's job to talk to any of us regarding whether or not we're done. It doesn't surprise me he's impatient enough to do so ;), but it's not his reponsibility.

And if I was the last one before advancing, the last thing I want is messages from FSU telling me to hurry up and play ;)

Well, glad you asked FSU.

I really didnt prepare for it like I should have last year. So more than likely we will become a flexbone 99% run team :)

No really I have no idea, I didnt recruit real hard in that post last year so I will more than likely offer top recruits immediate playing time.

fsuprime
08-31-2010, 12:17 PM
ahhh, i noticed mike james at the FB position, he looks a lot like my fb lonnie pryor, he might be real good in the flexbone...i know g ran a FB heavy offense that was not the flexbone last year at certain points which was tough to stop.

yea i think if u recruit 3 or 4 wr's this year then tommy streeter can hold his own at 1 of the starting spots next season and hopefully be a good stop gap for you.

if i dont sign a QB i will be looking at starting journeymen trickett or secord or a true freshman in 2 years...if EJ goes pro i will be in an even worse spot.

I went after about 5 FBs last year and didnt get one. James was the best at the position so I put him there. Streeter has had some issues catching the ball last season but with a new look offense I am hoping to get him and maybe Highsmith some more PT this year.

After Harris went out I was doomed. Highsmith couldnt hit water falling out of a boat. Luckily I lost Cooper late so my O didnt take too big of a hit
