Wow, what a week for Bama to have such a huge distraction. The SEC drops another OOC game. Oregon will smash Tenn and make PAC 10 fans ask wat up with the SEC D. I'm hopeful Ole Miss can represenst and pull of the upset.
I read a good read once on how traveling West is an advantage to traveling East. I'm speaking in terms of a difference in two time zones. Losing two hours vs. gaining two hours- sleep, meals, etc.
neither have allowed a point yet. they are tied as the #1 scoring Ds in the country, and they are the #1 and #2 total Ds, the only two teams allowing less than 180 yards per game ( 162.5 and 167.0 ) the ASU D is led by RS senior DT #90 Will Sutton, the defending Pac 12 Defensive Player of the Year. Last year, he finished the season ranked second in the nation at 1.92 TFL per game and third in the nation with 1.08 sacks per game the Wisconsin D is led by RS senior LB #44 Chris Borland who has 322 career tackles, is 3-time All Big Ten, and is one forced fumble away from tying the NCAA career record the ASU coach said this about Borland: "I'd love to coach him," Arizona State coach Todd Graham said. "I'm an old-school guy and he is that kind of linebacker — physical, passionate....He is very, very strong and very explosive. "He obviously has great play recognition and great instincts. This game is supposed to be played with unbelievable passion and he really does that.
last year, UCLA beat #16 Nebraska 36-30 in Los Angeles. It was UCLA's first win over Nebraska since Troy Aikman and #5 UCLA beat Broderick Thomas and #2 Nebraska in 1988 on ABC
Borland was right on his heels after two years Borland's first two years: 5 5 TM7's two years: 5 6 TM7 owns the LSU school record of 11 forced fumbles, which is four better than the previous record ... The 11 career forced fumbles ranks as the seventh-highest total in NCAA history and is tied with Guss Scott of Florida for the SEC record
The status of injured Buckeyes quarterback Braxton Miller is still uncertain. Urban Meyer said Miller got in a little work at Wednesday's practice but then had another session of rehab for his injured left knee. "We'll know more tomorrow," Meyer said. "He's going on the trip and tomorrow's going to be the day we'll find out how much he'll play." Miller, who sustained a sprained ligament in his left knee early in the Buckeyes' 42-7 win over San Diego State last weekend, has been receiving treatment and throwing the ball this week. Meyer said Tuesday he was "fairly optimistic" that the junior might play. "I feel about the same (today)," Meyer said of Miller's chance of playing. Miller went through light, non-contact practices with the team Tuesday and Wednesday. He wore a big brace on the knee. "It's not as sore, it's an MCL so it's a little unstable," Meyer said. "He's got to get used to that brace. "We'll have a better [idea] tomorrow, but it's going to go to game time. He's an experienced player, and I'm not worried about how much he practices. Obviously tomorrow is big."
