No excuses this week as we should be able to roll early this week just like the last!

Hot. I will get my game in today.

Also, you may want to fix that title. :p

ND avoids the let down by spanking Rice, 55-17. It was actually a struggle early, as Rice was up 14-7 at the end of the 1st, but all of Rice's scoring was in the first half. ND was a bit sloppy early on , giving up two turnovers. However, they overcame the hangover from last week, scoring 20 in the 2nd.

Crist went 25-39 for 332 yards, 4 TDs, 1 INT. The player of the game was HB Cierre Wood who rushed 25 times for 176 yards and 3 TDs; he scored another through the air. In the last two games, he's scored 10 TDs!!

LSU handles Florida on the road. Well balanced attack and solid defense does the Gators in. Player of the Game was Russell Shepperd

Kansas continues to roll. It was over early, as the Jayhawks coasted to a 56-7 win over in-state rival Kansas State.

The real key for the blow out was four turnovers returned for TD's by a Jayhawk defense that picked off five passes and forced one fumble by a Wildcat QB. It was 49-7 at half.

Holy crap! That's nice production from your defense!!

Michigan overcomes some early hiccups to take down the #7 Wisconsin Badgers 49-17.

Robinson had two ridiculous INT's in the first half, one was probably a good 20 yards from my receiver while the other seemed to be taken right out of my WR's hands. But with 2 minutes to go in the first half, and being down 10-0, I was finally able to put together a sustained drive to make it 10-7 at the half.

I was feeling good, knowing that I was getting the ball to start the 3rd. Unfortunately, my return man fumbled and Wisconsin returned it for the score. Little did they know that those would be the last points they would score as this seemed to enrage my team. My return man, Vincent Smith, quickly redeemed himself by taking the next kick to the house, starting off a string of 42 unanswered points.

Fitzgerald Toussaint ended up with 180 yds and 3 td's and JT Floyd lead an overall strong defensive performance with 2 big INT's.

Overall, a nice way to kick off the Big Ten Season. Top 25 here I come.

Rutgers will take on undefeated West Virginia tomorrow at approx 1pm ET

Pitt wins 59-40. Pitt's first string put a beating down on Cincinnati in the first half. scoring 42 points. 28 in the second quarter alone. Feeling like a good time to see what was in the pipeline, the head coach put in the second string players to see what they could do. The defense needs some help and the secondary got lit up like a row a Christmas trees. I even put in the third string QB just to see what was there. After all, we are teaching the kids to play football and not run up the score.

5 games left to play before we roll!

hey guys, this is important

You should have received a letter about it, but if not, here is the website going into detail about it.

Washington over rival Oregon 35-13. I weathered another opponent first drive for a TD, after that I managed to hold the Oregon offense to just two field goals. Lost my starting QB for something like 8 weeks so Joe Montana's son will be taking snaps for us once again.

I didn't get a letter, but I did get an email about it. I did know how legit it was so I didn't do anything with it. I guess it is time to do some reading.

the same here...when i first received an email I was kinda weary of it...but I got a letter in the mail today and started looking at it on the net. Still not 100% sure about it, but feeling better.

Got the email this morning. Not entirely sure I care a whole lot about it really. I would be buying these games regardless of the licensing.

5:45 AM start time for Boise State and Nevada. Boise State wins, 21-6. The offense has really struggled the past couple games, and that has Boise considering using Freshman Nick Bostic at home, and JUCO Junior Dominique Carter on the road.

It all comes down to how they killed off NFL 2K5 by getting an exclusive license. And since NFL 2K5 released for $20, we've been getting ripped off due to the exclusive license.

It's all nonsense. The $20 2K football game was just a way to sell a ton of copies, expose a ton of people that blindly buy Madden, and then go to a reasonable price once the public actually bought into 2K's far superior game. Twenty bucks was never going to be the new price point for football games from 2K.

2 games left before we roll.

Georgia
Houston

Alright Coolbeans. We are waiting for you. I guess you have been watching the replays of Swisher breaking Nishioka's leg instead of getting you game in.

He's been missing in the 2 star league the last 3 days too. Hope all is well.

Redhawk: This is your official invite to join the Mountain West Conference in the 2-star dynasty. I need a rival!!

Upon further review I'm gonna take a pass on the other dynasty. With the new baby here just not going to have the time for two leagues.

Congrats on the baby! There's been a lot of life-changing events on the board lately!

Found it. I will set him to autopilot and run through the games until he is ready!

Looks like we are ready to roll then.
