Seat still Hot for Les Miles
Despite getting a win over North Carolina on Saturday night, the seat still has to be scorching hot for Les Miles. LSU nearly blew a 20 point second half lead to a team missing 13 players including stars Greg Little, Shaun Draughn, DaNorris Searcy, Robert Quinn, and Deunta Williams. The Tar Heel offensive line had no business pushing LSU around in the 2nd half. It is also clear that Jordan Jefferson is still not learning from his crucial mistakes after a pitiful INT pass that was thrown up for grabs late in the 2nd half. The only positive for LSU is the play of Patrick Peterson. He was spectacular! The Tigers’ junior had 262 return yards including a punt return for a touchdown. He is defensive players that will and should get serious Heisman consideration in 2010.
Is Denard Robinson the Answer for Rich Rod?
Did Rich Rodriguez finally solve his offensive problems? In a huge day for QB Denard Robinson, the sophomore had 386 all purpose yards and completed all but two throws in Michigan’s pounding of UConn. Last year’s starting QB Tate Forcier never saw a snap on Saturday and it appears his time could be up prematurely. Many were calling for UConn to upset Michigan, but I knew better as our clients picked up a HUGE premium pick win on the Wolverines yesterday. Michigan heads to South Bend next week to take on the Fighting Irish, however Wolverine fans must feel much better about the 2010 season.
Karma in Oxford
Fans around college football were having a fun laugh at Houston Nutt’s and Ole Miss’ expense after a overtime loss yesterday to lowly FCS opponent Jacksonville State in 2 OT. Jeremiah Masoli was not the least impressive as he threw for only 107 yards. This will be a very long season for Nutt and Ole Miss. Many fans including myself feel Nutt is getting what he deserves for taking on a problem like Masoli.
Oklahoma Must Solve Pass Defense Woes
Utah State QB Diondre Borel had a hey day against the Sooners pass defense throwing for 340 yards and 2 TDs! This has to be plenty scary to Oklahoma head coach Bob Stoops considering Christian Ponder and the Florida State Seminoles head to Norman this weekend. Ponder saw limited action and completed 12-14 passes for 167 yds and 4 TDs! The Sooners had best get it together. If not the 2010 national title talk could end very quickly.
Very nice start to the college football season yesterday. We went 2-1 with winners on Michigan and Notre Dame. We nearly went 3-0, but LSU’s 2nd half collapse cost us a perfect day! SIGN UP! The NFL starts Thursday, and we will have college football winners all next weekend! Plus the MLB triple play system is on fire! It’s 10-0! And the MLB premium picks are hitting at a 72% clip! GET INVOLVED!
