-If the Tigers best players were all to cut the 5 pounds of dreads on the top of their head they would be at least .1 faster in their 40 time and even more lethal.

-I was hoping the Cocks were going to go into Athens and lay an egg like they always do as soon as expectations get high. Well, they didn't. They have a ton of play makers on both sides of the ball. If they can handle Auburn at home in a few weeks, they could go into Starkville 6-0 and like #5 in the nation. Yikes.

-Remember Troy's QB Corey Robinson. The guy is a great quarterback and only a Soph. Well, Troy is the only D-I to offer him. He had 91 TDs his senior year in KY. I know he probably was playing a bunch of tiny schools, but 91 TDs is 91 TDs. We get caught up in projecting a kid and don't just look at his production. I as a recruiter am guilty of that, but try to fight it.

-If you want a laugh go to . You may remember Tribble was a fourth string quarterback at Clemson and he was on the TV show Sweet Home Alabama. Please take time to read his resume where he puts "ping pong" and "can drive automatic and manual" under special skills. Under achievements he lists his brilliant spring game performances: Completed 12-18 passes for 122 yards in the three spring scrimmages in 2007.

ACC Observations
-Another bad weekend. BC gets slaughtered by UCF 30-3. Remember that when the Eagles come to Clemson on Oct. 8. If they stay within two touchdowns any of you reading this who are there should storm the field and demand Dabo's resignation from him immediately.
-UNC squeaks by Rutgers at home and Virginia goes on the road to beat Indiana. Neither impressive, but it's a start.
-Duke stomped by Stanford. Not at all suprising.
-Va. Tech and Clemson both play squeakers to much lesser opponents.
-Writer's picked NC St. to finish 3rd in Atlantic division, but the loss of their QB and injuries have made it look like it will be a long year in Raleigh. Wake handled them at home.
-Huge weekend for the ACC. Four teams host ranked out of conference opponents and all four are winnable, and of course losable (is that a word?). Clemson hosts Auburn, FSU hosts Okl., Miami hosts Ohio St and Maryland hosts WV. Amazingly Vegas has all four as favorites right now. That is funny, because I would be happen with a split in those four, of course very happy if Clemson is the victor in one.
