Posted on 6 Sep 2012 by David Willow.
It was a thrilling opener for the NFL, and one in which the Cowboys came away with an impromptu victory over the Super Bowl champion New York Giants. Especially while many in the country felt the Cowboys were outmatched (guilty myself). Behind a breakout performance from an unlikely source, 4th year wide out Kevin Ogletree, who had 8 receptions for 114 yards and 2 TDs. Ogletree took advantage ...

Posted on 6 Sep 2012 by Simran Reyatt.
It's been a little over nine months since Philip Rivers and the San Diego Chargers ran amok all over the Oakland Coliseum field, spoiling New Years Day for both the Raider players and fans, alike. The Raiders, needing a victory to clinch their first playoff birth since the 2002-2003 season, failed miserably in virtually every aspect of the game, most notably on the defensive end in losing 38-26...

Florida State vs. Savannah State Preview
Posted on 6 Sep 2012 by Mackenzie Thirkill.
The Noles had little competition facing Murray State last weekend scoring more in the first quarter than the Racers scored the whole game. It's safe to say that the sixth ranked Seminoles shouldn't face any turbulence playing Savannah State this Saturday. Expected to have one of the country's top defenses, Florida State faced a drawback after it was announced that star defensive end Brandon Jen...

Nebraska vs. UCLA: Keep The Hammer Down
Posted on 6 Sep 2012 by Richard Rhoden.
After a convincing 49-20 win last weekend over Southern Miss., the Nebraska Cornhuskers head out on the road to take on an improved UCLA squad from last season. UCLA defeated Rice last weekend with a score of 49-24. Taylor Martinez and his much improved throwing motion has an opportunity to torch UCLA's defense. To be honest, I was shocked with what I saw out of Martinez. It was the first time ...

Posted on 6 Sep 2012 by Clifford Pine.
The Montreal Alouettes went undefeated in August by capping off the month with a thrilling 30-25 win over the B.C. Lions this past Friday. I was only able to catch the ending of the game live due to transportation issues. But I arrived in plenty of time to see Brandon Whitaker's third touchdown of the game, as well as the great defensive stand to end the game and seal the Als' sixth win of th...
