Oakland Bound?
1. The Great Escape Part I
If Notre Dame somehow backs its way into the national title game it will be because Brady Quinn would not let them lose. The stirring comeback he led on Saturday afternoon will be remembered for both its precision and drama. If the Oakland Raiders draft anybody other than Quinn with the first overall pick they should be kicked out of the NFL and replaced with whatever team wins the BCS championship.
2. The Great Escape II
Forever will Ryan Bailey be known as the walk-on who saved Texas. Their hopes of a repeat national championship were in his hands and did they ever prove capable. You have to take your hat off to Bill Callahan as he has revived the Cornhusker program. Callahan’s a guy who never got the credit he deserved for leading the Raiders to a Super Bowl in one of the only two years that he coached.
3. Bring The Ruckus
I’m not saying Rutgers is the best team in college football………but they deserve more respect than they have been getting. As somebody who has now taken in two full Scarlet Knights games, I can tell that Rutgers is good at two things. The first thing is that they play killer defense and are extremely fast up the middle. Former University of Miami Defensive Coordinator, Greg Schiano has this defense looking like a poor man’s version of the Old Canes. Secondly, Rutgers is going to line up and they are going to run the football. I don’t know if they beat West Virginia, but mark my words………Rutgers will beat Louisville.
4. Chad Johnson is Jealous
Marshawn Lynch driving the injury cart around after a touchdown is one of the greatest things I have ever seen. Nice win by California over an improving Washington team. I think Ty Willie is two years away from having a national title contender
5. Still on Track
The Ohio State University and Michigan are still rolling along with their date in November getting closer and closer and closer………….
