March Madness Preview: South Bracket
2007-03-15 14:54:00
News: Pre Pro Sports is breaking down the first-round brackets. Here's the top 4 storylines in the South ...yearbook style.Most Likely to Succeed:Texas A&M. The Aggies are the most dangerous 3 seed in the tourney since Carmelo Anthony led Syracuse to the national title as a freshman in 2003. The path isn't easy as they will have to get past a Memphis team with only 3 losses in the Sweet 16 and Greg Oden and the Buckeyes in the Elite 8, but Texas A&M has the perfect balance of inside-outside scoring to make a deep tourney run.Most Likely to Get a Home-Cooked Meal:Lousville. Since when does a 6 seed get home court advantage? One of the best matchups of the first round may be negated with Rick Pitino's team playing the first two rounds in Lexington, KY. The Stanford Cardinal have the talent with the 7-foot Lopez twins (pictured on the left) manning the middle, but they have the disadvantage of having to fly across country to play in front of thousands of Louisville faithful.Most Lik

March Madness Preview: Midwest Bracket
2007-03-15 12:43:00
News: Pre Pro Sports is breaking down the first-round brackets. Here is the Midwest preview.Top Matchups:#5 Butler vs. #12 Old Dominion - ODU is everyone's George Mason this year. Be unique and pick Butler. It could be the smartest thing you do for your whole bracket. The next smartest thing would be to pick Butler to lose in Rd. 2#6 Notre Dame vs. #11 Winthrop - Winthrop almost pulled of a 12/5 upset last year. Look for them to show the world they belong in this tounrey. Sorry ND fans, the Irish are going down.#7 UNLV vs. #10 Georgia Tech - GA Tech ended the season on a roll. UNLV seemed to plateau a bit. Tech could pull off the upset, but Rd. 2 (Wisconsin) is looking rough regardless of the winner here.Players to Watch:Joakim Noah - Had a steller tourney last year, and by the looks of it, an even more impressive hair stylist.Tajuan Porter - Referred to as The Little Engine That Could Shoot by an Oregon fan blog. This tiny 5'6 man could light it up in the tourney. Bookies wonder WWJ

March Madness Preview: East Bracket
2007-03-14 06:31:00
News: Pre Pro Sports is breaking down the first-round brackets, starting with the East. Here's the top 4 storylines...yearbook style.Most Likely to Succeed:Georgetown. No, it's not the Tar Heels so just do yourself a favor and erase them from your Final Four. As we told you before, people are underestimating Tyler Hansbrough's mask debacle. They'll be bounced by Texas in the Sweet 16, courtesy of Kevin Durant. Meanwhile, the Hoyas are the hottest team in the nation coming off a Big East title and winners of 15 of their last 16 games.Class Clown:Texas Tech. This award goes to the biggest joke of the tournament, according to the Vegas oddsmakers - Bobby Knight's team. Personally, we always hope Bobby Knight advances so we have more opportunities to listen to his words of wisdom (note: don't miss out on this link, but beware at work), but it looks like BC is a safe bet to escape Round 1.Most Likely to Miss Their Star Player:Marquette. If you haven't already done so, be sure to add

Let the Madness Begin: Men's Basketball Brackets Revealed
2007-03-12 06:04:00
News: That's right, we blog basketball, too! On the day after Selection Sunday, we take a break from football to disect the brackets with the rest of the free world. Who's in? Who's out? Those questions now have answers. Who's this year's George Mason? We'll let you know in three weeks. In the meantime, here are some observations from our point of view:Biggest Snub:Syracuse. 10 wins in the Big East, 22 wins overall, 7-3 in the last 10 games. Jim Boeheim sounded like his cat had just died when he said "if I think about this from now until the next 10 years, I will never figure out how we are not in this tournament." 2003 seems like so long ago. Here's a picture you won't be seeing this year.Sleeper:Texas A&M. Acie Law is the real deal and the Aggies battled through a rugged Big 12. Don't let their record fool you - their last four losses have been by a combined 7 points.Deep Sleeper:Oral Roberts. The Mid-Continental champs are seeded 14th, but they have a winnable first game ag

Miami Spring: Wright and Freeman Better Not Shoot Each Other
2007-03-09 16:25:00
News: While most of the news outlets made a bit to-do about new head coach Randy Shannon's gun-ban, the real news is that Shannon has put a gag order on players discussing the battle between Kyle Wright (1654 PaYd, 8 PaTD, 7 PaINT) and Kirby Freeman (460 PaYd, 4 PaTD, 6 PaINT) for the top QB spot. In fact, Wright and Freeman can't even do interviews until the 2007 season starts. Every time a Miami player discusses the Wright/Freeman QB battle, Randy Shannon will kill a kitten . . . with gun he has confiscated from his players.Fantasy College Impact: Well, you can worry about your fantasy guys sporting AK-47s or you can worry about them losing their starting jobs. In this case, you can be rest assured that the Hurricane players will put safety first . . . right?The reality of this compeititon won't be known for a few months. But our money is on Wright winning the job back despite a rocky season in 2006. If you have your eye on top recruit Robert Marve, make sure you're in a keeper l

Wisconsin Spring: Donovan Has Evridge Breathing Down His Neck
2007-03-09 15:07:00
News: Tyler Donovan (564 PaYd, 4 PaTD, 2 PaINT) may have appeared the easy pick for the Wisconsin starting QB next season, but Spring Practice will have a battle brewing between Donovan and Kansas State Transfer Allan Evridge for the top spot.Fantasy College Football: Dustin Scherer (2 PaAtt, 1 PaINT) is also in the mix, but you can bet that Donovan and Evridge will get most of the looks. The early word is that Evridge, despite transferring from a mediocre program at the time, was pushed out due to a political situation and not because of a lack of talent. In addition, Donovan is not a strong thrower and the offense will need a boost with PJ Hill recovering from surgery. The pressure, and your attention, should be high on the Wisconsin QB audition this March.News via Madison.comPhoto via JSOnline.com

Ainge Hurts Knee, Crompton Cracks Lineup, Hardegree Breaks Serve?
2007-03-08 23:31:00
News: Erik Ainge , the definite starter at QB for the Tennessee Vols in 2007, injured his knee during workouts and will need to undergo surgery. At this point, it is unclear whether the injury is serious enough to jeopardize his playing time in 2007.When asked about his nephew's injury, Boston Celtics GM Danny Ainge could only wonder why reporters were more interested in a 20-year-old's bum knee than his ailing 17-43 basketball franchise.Fantasy College Impact: Wow. Ainge was going to be one of the best Fantasy QBs in the game for 2007 and now things are on shaky ground. Jonathan Crompton (401 PaYd, 4 PaTD, 2 PaINT) has shown some potential, but the known quantities stops there with no-name Nick Stephens (No Stats) behind him and Bo Hardegree leaving the team to play ball on the hardcourts. Thus, you better grab Crompton if Ainge was your bet and take a look at Stephens for insurance. If you are really gambling, watch what BJ Coleman does when he reaches Knoxville in the Fall.Where's

There's must be more money out there for guys who can raid a few dorm rooms.Neither Derrick McPhearson (11 Recep, 179 ReYd, 0 ReTD) nor Jody Ellis (8 Recep, 121 ReYd, 1 ReTD) were dominant, but they did have chances to get more involved with the offense in 2007. Kyle Hudson (30 Recep, 403 ReYd, 3 ReTD) is still the leading stat-earner for the WR group and Jacob Willis (16 Recep, 313 ReYd, 3 ReTD) is not far behind.However, if you want to take a gamble, you can aim for Arrelious B

Stephen Garcia Is Bringing Redneck Back

News: South Carolina's top recruit, QB Stephen Garcia , got busted with underage drinking a few weeks ago . . . which only got him a one-day suspension by the Ol' Ball Coach under a rather un-Spurrier-esque discipline policy.So, with a lack of tough love being handed down, Garcia must have decided to take it another step further last week by allegedly keying the car of a visiting professor. We have no idea if the prof was visiting from Clemson, but that's the only way out of this mess.But, all should be well, because Mr. Garcia has apologized to the Coach Spurrier and, as we all know, saying you're sorry is half the battle. Not since Steve Taneyhill roamed the streets of Columbia, SC have we seen such potential for a QB to not only win the hearts of South Carolinians, but to also do it with such a . . .

Jake Gelakoska will have at least a year to learn as rising sophomore Sean Canfield has the inside track

Nebraska's Top Scorer Congdon Bolts for the Beach
2007-02-23 15:35:00
News: Jordan Congdon, a former 5-star kicking recruit out of San Diego, has left Nebraska and enrolled at the Southern California. Congdon was a terrific player as a true freshman when he led all freshman PKs in Field Goal accuracy (19/23 attempts), but he only had seven FG attempts in 2006, which led some folks to think he was misused. Congdon led the Huskers in scoring both years at NebraskaPer NCAA transfer rules, Congdon will have to sit out a year and can play in 2008 if he makes the Trojan roster. When interviewed, Congdon "cited the need to be closer to his family."Fantasy College Impact: Why should I care about placekickers in fantasy college ball, you ask? Well, don't you hate all of those one-to-five-point losses for your fantasy team when it really matters during the season? The average kicker on a good team will score 8-9 points per game, which is the equivalent of a typical touchdown score (6 points), 90 RuYd (9 pts), or 180 PaYd (9 pts). Yes, the kicker really does count

March Madness Preview: West Region
2007-03-16 12:28:00
News: Note-to-Self - If you commence a "preview" once the tourney has started, you only have to discuss half the teams. Not sure if this makes these comments worth anything at all. With that said, we give you the West Region Postview.Possible Incorrect Picks: Most people at least thought that Duke would have made it past VCU. Duke was pretty bad at times this year, but getting out of the 1st round should have been automatic. Many thought Gonzaga would upset Indiana and possibly make a run at UCLA........no sir. Indiana has their work cut out for them too.JJ Redick wrote a poem for the Duke fans in mourning,"This team is not built like the lastMe and Shelly balled like we were prosPaulus and J-Mac balled like pu$$iesHang tight Coach K, you and me BFFStay in college kids, the real world ain't no fun"On Today's Docket: Kansas takes the win running away, Villa and Kentucky tussle, VT fights the Illini, and Southern Illi take on christ and the cross.Villanova Vs.

2007 Football Recruiting Roundup: Michigan Wolverines (Big Ten)
2007-03-16 12:05:00
Recruits You Care About:QB, Ryan Mallett, Rivals 5-starRB, Avery Horn, Rivals 3-starRB, Vince Helmuth, Rivals 3-starWR, Toney Clemons, Rivals 4-starWR, Martell Webb, Rivals 4-starWR, Zion Babb, Rivals 3-starWR, Junior Hemingway, Rivals 3-starTE, Steve Watson, Rivals 3-starATH, James Rogers, Rivals 3-starWe hear Lloyd Carr is using a new "Get Laid Like Tom" campaign to beat out Ohio State for recruits. We're going to guess that it will work quite well. After all, Troy Smith never got chicks like these.Fantasy College Impact: Anyone who pays attention to Michigan knows that drafting Ryan Mallett for a one-season deal would be foolish. Chad Henne (2199 PaYd, 20 PaTD, 7 PaINT) is the guaranteed starter at QB in 2007, health-willing, and no one is going to unseat the senior in his final chance at a National Championship. However, keeper league owners will want to target Mallett, who stands a chance to be the next Tom Brady with the talent he showed in the prep ranks. No word if Mallett is

2007 Football Recruiting Roundup: UCLA Bruins (PAC 10)
2007-03-19 06:01:00
Recruits You Care About:QB, Chris Forcier, Rivals 4-star, 2634 PaYD, 32 PaTD, 415 RuYD, 4 RuTDRB, Raymond Carter, Rivals 4-star, 1512 RuYD, 13 RuTDTE, Nate Chandler, Rivals 4-star, 512 ReYD, 6 ReTDQB recruit Chris Forcier probably had this reaction when he was compared by scouts to Cade McNown (above). Believe it or not, that once would have been a good thing!Fantasy College Impact: The Bruins went for quality over quantity this year with their roster already stacked with young players. The bad news is they only landed three skill position players...the good news is they are all 4-star recruits. At QB, Ben Olson is hoping to return from a Week 5 injury last year that knocked him out for the season. Olson had a good opening game, but struggled in the remainder of his appearances. Patrick Cowan stepped in and provided a nice spark for fantasy owners, but it appears Olson is on track to begin 2007 as the starter. Owners would be smart to handcuff the two if possible. Chris Forcier gives t

March Madness Sweet 16: West & Midwest
2007-03-20 12:23:00
News: The round of 16 is set. Let's see if we can analyze and poke fun at a couple of these Sweet 16 teams from the West and Midwest Regions.Surprise Team: Southern Cal - Trojans: Many thought this team was seeded too high and was overrated. I am sure those people have changed their tune as of late. Tim Floyd has USC in a nice position. They get O. J. Mayo next year, so look for them in this spot once again.O. J. Mayo, the current face of One-and-Done? Bracket Buster: These picks have been ruining your bracket in the 1st two rounds and will possibly ruin Round 3.UNLV - Running Rebels: The Rebs were an unrespected team coming into the tourney. Many experts called for Georgia Tech to upset the higher seed. How many had Tech winning that game. Heck people we know had GT in the Great 8 (I did). A team like UNLV can ruin someone's whole bracket.UNLV players are expected to take home valuable jewelry if they are able to beat Jujaun Porter and the Oregon Ducks.Butler - Bulldogs: Many had th

March Madness Sweet 16: East and South
2007-03-21 11:56:00
News: The round of 16 is set. Let's see if we can analyze and poke fun at a couple of these Sweet 16 teams from the East and South Regions.Surprise Team:Vanderbilt: It's pretty sad when a 6 seed qulifies for a surprise team, but that's the state of this year's tournament that didn't produce a single 12-5 upset and still includes all 4 number 1 seeds. Shan Foster and Derrick Byars have been posting big numbers, but their run probably ends at the hands of Georgetown this week. Derrick Byars had that nasty streak going in the first two rounds.Chalk It Up: Most of the top seeds made it through as advertised. Here's the two most dangerous teams remaining in these two brackets (unfortunately, they are in the same bracket). Gerogetown: The Hoyas crushed Belmont and handled BC late in the game. They have the easiest matchup next round before squaring off against UNC. Many people have G-town winning the whole thing. The Hoyas are having their best showing since John Thompson II was head c
