I can't wait for Notredame/Stanford tommorow!!! My Irish are gonna slaughter them!! Well, i think they'll win anyhow..lol Also, i think a underrated game to watch is OREGON ST AT BYU.. U got my man Jordan Poyer CB Org St and of course everyone knows about Ezekial Ansah DE BYU.. A couple studs right there... Also there both playing well this yr..
What is Dan Fox' position in the draft this upcoming year do you think? This guy was everywhere in the Stanford game. Te'o and him were around the ball on almost every defensive play. He reminds me of a Clay Matthews type of Inside Linebacker with the energy he displayed.

NYC I know you're high on Desmond Trufant so i thought you might want to read this write from CBS's draft blog:
The quarterbacks earned virtually all of the national hype leading up to the USC-Washington game, but Huskies coach Steve Sarkisian created some local buzz prior to kickoff with his praise of cornerback Desmond Trufant. Sarkisian announced that he'd been told by NFL scouts that Trufant, a senior starting his 41st consecutive game, was being rated among the top "two or three" cornerbacks in the country. While NFLDraftScout.com currently ranks the younger brother of Seattle Seahawks' Marcus and the New York Jets' Isaiah Trufant as the No. 4 senior corner in the country, it was easy to see against the Trojans why talent evaluators are so high on the 5-11, 190 pounder. Lining up against both halves of the Trojans' dynamic duo of Marqise Lee and Robert Woods, Trufant demonstrated the agility, fluidity and closing speed to help keep the high-octane USC passing attack largely under wraps. Under new defensive coordinator Josh Wilcox, Trufant has been allowed to play more bump and run, maximizing the athletic ability that some close to him believe is even better than that of either of his brothers. When Trufant was beaten Saturday night it was largely when he bailed out and USC's receivers were able to work themselves free on drag routes across the middle. Scouts appreciate Trufant's coverage skills but furthermore acknowledge that his grade has risen this year because he's been more physical as a run defender. Taking advantage of the national stage, Trufant contributed on special teams in this game, as well, blocking a USC field goal in the third quarter.
I have said it before, by the end of the college season(maybe sooner) this kid will be a 1st rounder. People have been talking about him as a 2nd and 3rd rounder. To me, that is unlrealistic. He is not some hidden gem hidding out in some unknown program. Prior to the Stanford upset, maybe I could see an argument for some not knowing as much as they should about him, but not anymore. The USC game only put an exlamation on my point.

Hes been awesome against all the top pass offenses in the pac 10 and in Oregon and USC's case, the country! I mean, hes came leaps and bounds from where he was to start the yr, as most had him with a solid if not spectacular career at Washington.. I love the kid, and have been raving for weeks.
Well, he really hasen't lived up to his billing in his career to this point.. Again, hes been solid, but unspectacular, and this yr hes stepped it up.. I mean, he still was ranked as about 3rd rder going into yr, so u knew he was solid, but now hes playing at 1st rd level.. I mean, he wasen't even 1st or 2nd all confrence last yr..
