How could someone hate Kellen Moore?  All he does is win games.

And yeah, they were paired w/VT just to show off the new combat unis (not because they scheduled this game YEARS in advance)...

Nope your wrong. They scheduled this game back in June 2009, when the 'Cuse cancelled a home/away series with VaTech. They had an opening and Boise State stepped up. Boise State has always wanted to play someone from the eastern coastal conferences, but no one was willing to schedule them. ESPN help broker the deal, just like what they did when they schedule Boise State at Ole Miss later this year. They want ratings and they know small school Boise State facing big school powerhouses draws big ratings. Va Tech got over $2 million to host the game in D.C., while Boise is only collecting little over a million to get them scheduled.

Originally, they were scheduled for Oct 2, but ESPN needed a primetime game for MNF. This was available, both teams had talent coming back, would be both be highly ranked, so they moved it up in February 2010. Nike just jumped in from a marketing and sales standpoint to cash on their pro combat unis.

They replaced Tech with Rhode Island

FSU CB Mike Harris's (Juco transfer) mother died unexpectedly after his first game as a Nole

He recorded his 1st int as well.

Prayers out to the kid.

Christian Green might have to RS this year.

[h1]Sources: Trust to take Bush’s Heisman   [/h1]

The Heisman Trophy Trust is expected to strip former University of Southern California star running back Reggie Bush of college football’s top honor by the end of September, sources told Yahoo! Sports.

Bush would become the first player in the 75-year history of the award to have the trophy taken away. The NCAA found major violations in the Trojans’ football program in June and levied serious sanctions against the school.

Two sources close to the Heisman trust said the body’s investigation is coming to a close, and will ultimately concur with the NCAA’s determination that Bush was ineligible during his Heisman-winning season in 2005. Because of that independent conclusion, sources said the trust will relieve Bush of the award and leave the honor for that season vacant. The sources said Bush met with Heisman representatives last month at the New York law offices of Emmet, Marvin & Martin. The sources would not reveal details of that meeting.

Bush, now a standout with the Super Bowl champion New Orleans Saints, could not immediately be reached for comment.

It appears as if the Heisman Trophy Trust is about to strip Reggie Bush of his 2005 trophy.

The Heisman trust has been conducting its own independent inquiry into Bush’s eligibility since the NCAA ruled in June that the USC star had committed multiple violations by accepting cash, gifts and other impermissible benefits while playing for the Trojans. Yahoo! Sports first detailed the extra benefits in September 2006. In its findings, the NCAA retroactively ruled Bush ineligible for part of the 2004 season and all of 2005. The NCAA also ordered the USC program to remove all references to Bush from its sporting venues and promotional materials and vacate his statistics from all games in which he was ineligible.

In July, incoming USC president C.L. Max Nikias announced that the university would be returning its copy of Bush’s Heisman to the trust, stating the Trojans would honor and respect athletes who “did not compromise their athletic program or the opportunities of future USC student-athletes.

[gunna get it]

Va tech was very undisciplined defensively. Their DBs played really bad. #9 #21 had bad coverage and quite a few missed tackles. All they did was look in the backfield all game.

And I was very disappointed in "the 2nd best RB Tandem" in college

Yep. I don't understand some of the logic behind these moves. Even if we lose we show the nation that we aren't afraid to schedule tough opponents and we're increasing our exposure. At least we didn't cancel the home and home with USC.

So Oklahoma hires Willie Martinez as their DB coach, and in their 1st game vs USU, the secondary gets violated.

Coincidence?

Probably an aberration and I know Stoops still works w/ them a lot, but still
