    I think the Redskins will get it together and win the division. Unless that defense is really that bad.

    Then it's anybody's division.

    Dallas is actually the best team (close losses to KC and Denver), but they have Tony Romo.

    They have to play each other so much from here on out, we are definitely looking at an 8-8 team winning it, maybe even 7-9.

    The best thing to happen to Philly is Mike Vick getting injured. Foles can lead that team to safe and secure wins. Not 9 turnovers and 12 sacks a game.

    Can't help but wonder if the unceremonious dismissal of Kiffin might deter any coaches that they might be courting. Don't get me wrong; what happened to him is one of my favorite things ever. Spoiled little shitbag deserved exactly what he got. However, it shows a real lack of tact by their AD to do that, and I don't know that I'd want to work for a man like that.

    Regardless, with SC and probably UTx looking for HCs this December, many a college football fan will lose sleep wondering if the carousel might affect them. Those two programs will likely want proven coaches from major programs, so the programs losing their coaches to them will want something similar. It could be a colossal domino effect.

    Just be glad we won't be looking for a HC, DC or OC. Look at the hires in the off season by SEC schools. I know the best hire at any school was the hire by Les at LSU with him getting Cam.

    Not even debatable. This is probably going to be our best offense in school history. We're putting up similar numbers to those schools that run the video game style offenses except without the video game style offense. Power run game and vertical passing attack.

    My dark horse candidate for the USC job is (don't laugh) Bill Callahan. Dude can recruit with the best of them and Nebraska is where coaches not named Osborne go to die. Pellini is getting chewed up and spit out by Nebraska just like Callahan did.

    No way USC goes after another coach who has not been successful at either of his two stops.

    usc recruits itself, look at the number of Junior Colleges close to that school. Look at colleges doing good there. Lots of talent on that West coast. Kind of like the talent in Fla. Too much to go around.
