All Week Team

This all week team is going to look a little bit different.

Offense: The whole Auburn Offense: 5 different guys scored touchdowns in a game where the tigers dropped 65 points on Arkansas. Cam Newton passed for 1 and ran for 3. Three different backfield players scored touchdowns. Cam Newton has jumped to the top of many people's Heisman lists due to his ability to wear down defenses all by himself.

Defense: Texas Longhorns: The Longhorns held Nebraska to 202 total yards. The Most yards any one player had was 66. The Longhorns shocked the Cornhuskers at Nebraska. The held Martinez to only 63 yards passing.-Josh Neighbors

Connor Jones: This week(13-7) overall(84-36)
Ranny Kennon: This week(10-10) overall(84-36)

Quick Hit

The number 1 team has fallen for the 2nd week in a row. Last night it was Ohio State falling on the road against Wisconsin. Wisconsin lead at halftime 21 to 3. The Buckeyes got within 3 points, but Bucky fought them off and pulled off the upset. This means Oregon will inherit  the number 1 ranking. Let's see how they respond with the target on their forehead.-Josh Neighbors

Saturday Scare

This week I am putting the vest on upset alert. Ohio State, with their new number 1 ranking, travels to Camp Randal Stadium to take on the number 18 Badgers. Having gone to Camp Randal, I know how loud it can get. At night this place is going insane. Tyrelle Prior will struggle in this game, even though he has matured. I think he will be feeling the pressure. The question will be if this Wisconsin offense can respond. Brent Bielema will have to get this usually conservative offense going. Scott Tolzien will have to go to his star WR Nick Toon. Look for Bucky to beat Jim Tressel's Buckeys this week.-Josh Neighbors

All Week Team

2 of our weeks players come from South Carolina, as they knocked off Alabama last weekend. These guys deserve all the credit in the world.


Quarterback: Taylor Martinez. Nebraska: Nobody on the Kansas State defense could seem to catch Martinez Thursday night. Nebraska went in to Manhattan and crushed K-State, or should I say Martinez did. He passed for 128 yards and 1 score. Then he rushed for 241 yards and 4 scores. It appears Nebraska is not just defense after all.

Running back: Marcus Lattimore. South Carolina: This freshman running back is going to be something special. He ran for 93 yards and 2 touchdowns against Alabama saturday. He also caught a 3rd touchdown as the Gamecocks knocked off The Tide.

Wide Receiver: Alshon Jeffery. South Carolina. 7 receptions for 127 yards. Those are some pretty scary numbers for a sophomore wide receiver. His touchdown catches were just examples of his athletic skill. He was another big part of this teams offense.

Wide Receiver: Jeff Fuller. Texas A&M: Fuller turned in another solid performance against Arkansas. 8 receptions for 154 yards and a score. This guy puts up some huge numbers.

Defender: Andrew Luck. Stanford: I am sticking with the theme of one defender for now. Andrew Luck is a future NFL quarterback. This weekend he decided to play a little defense. On a fumble picked up by USC's Shareece Wright. Andrew Luck then makes a touchdown saving hit. But on this hit, Luck brought some serious wood. Check it out.-Josh Neighbors
