Going to watch Stanford ND here. Hopefully Stanford will put an end to the ND hype and expose Golson.

Sweet the ND hype needs to end. A&M just got blowout albeit by another black quarterback so if ND loses will be a good day!

This is the first ND broadcast I have watched this year. Mayock has attained full fledged caste whore status. He is a far cry from what he was 8-9 years ago as a pretty fair draft analyst.

apparently, the theme of the day is dropped passes by explosively affletic room-brightening playmakuhs … every single game has featured an abundance of these game-breaking efforts. loll

conversely, the rare sighting of a White wideout generally also features a caught ball. "weird," that i think a receiver should be able to actually catch.

*****************

Illinois true freshman Mike Dudek with 8 catches for 200 yards. he made the big play look routine today. the only thing he didn't manage to do was get into the end zone.

on the other side of the ball, speedster Danny Anthrop had 3 catches for 99 yards, including a beautiful 80-yard sprint down the sideline for a score.

at quarterback for the Boilermakers, Austin Appleby showcased his "deceptive" speed. he scored on 2 runs, and had a long rush on the day of 62 yards (as well as an efficient day passing: 15 of 20 for 202 yards and another touchdown with no interceptions).

what is really "weird" is that Illinois safety and WSTD Clayton Fejedelum couldn't catch quarterback Appleby from behind, but he DID catch Purdue running black *™* Keyante (sic) Green. i thought running blacks were supposed to be faster than White people, hence the reason no White people play running back … "weird," huh?

Shaw has almost run out of players recruited/taught by Harbaugh. Only the fifth year seniors.
Stanford will likely finish in the bottom half of the conference next season.

Anyone get the Baylor game? What's the deal with Petty's poor numbers?

Bingo. His offense is very vanilla. Everyone knows running is cardinals identity but you need to air it out once in a while!

The black quarterback lovers are rejoicing tonight. This loss, even though it wasn't Hill's fault, absolutely ends his Heisman chances. Since he was one of the few (two?) white players in the country who had a chance at the award this year, another black quarterback Heisman winner is probably a lock.
Not much to be happy about this season. Last year we at least had Johnny Manzel. I'm kind of predicting the championship game will be between Alabama and Florida State, and if that happens I recommend boycotting watching the game.

Hogan looks pretty bad today. His mechanics are not that great, I wonder why Shaw has never worked on cleaning up Hogan's mechanics. Pretty disappointed in his performance. Also, David Shaw's playcalling is terrible.

this is the problem with Wisconsin, as well. they simply can't throw the ball with any consistency. Northwestern is daring the Badgers to throw and focusing solely on slowing down Gordon, yet Wisconsin is having no success through the air (pending the final 6 and a half minutes).

as i type this, Stave throws a terrible interception in the end zone. ugh!

i'm guessing that their fans (and i know the media) didn't truly appreciate the greatness that was Jared Abbrederis.

********************

in the Georgia-Vanderbilt game, two White tight ends are leading their teams in receiving.

highly-touted freshman Jeb Blazevich currently has 3 catches for a game-high 86 yards.

for the Commodores, junior Steven Scheu has team-highs of 3 catches for 37 yards. he is Vanderbilt's leading receiver on the season in both catches and yards.

Bryce Petty is 6/19 for 81 yards. Awful day for him, I actually think they should put in his backup.

Abbrederis is a legend among Wisconsin fans. Staves horrible. McEvoys slightly better but he should be running read option a lot more. Idk Andersens looking like he's not ready to lead UW in Big Ten play. Either way if either of those teams had good QB play they'd be contenders.

Kevin Hogan also having a tough night 12/28, but he actually has no receivers. Stanford needs to use McCaffrey more. The only QB not sucking today are Carden and Prescott.

Garret Grayson played really well for Colorado state today and has been talked about as a potential riser during his senior season for the 2015 draft.

Plenty of our QBs are playing later tonight - Cook, Goff, Halliday, Kiel, Waters, Towels, Thompson, Kessler and Travis Wilson.

McCaffrey made a bad decision going there. Stanford has way to many Running Backs and not enough talent at other positions. This is the same situation Cam McDaniel is in.

Treon Harris is the new QB for Florida. Son now they have only 1 white on the team.

He is a true freshman though and has had some decent playing time and made some big plays. The realistic view of his role on this team is more as a slot type player like Ryan Switzer.

Stanford's Henry Anderson and Tarpley should be 2nd-3rd picks. Hoffpauir is a promising safety prospect.

Miami-Ohio true freshman wide receiver Sam Martin had a HUGE game against UMass today, finishing the contest with 8 catches for 111 yards and 4 touchdowns!!!

a 2-star prospect as a skinny 6-foot-3 wideout with reported 4.4 speed in the 40 (according to Rivals), Martin's only FBS scholarship offers were from the Redhawks and Rutgers. i guess he didn't have enough "upside" or some such nonsense.

in high school, he played in Colorado's largest classification. as a junior, Martin led the state of Colorado in receiving yards (1,289), catches (76), and receiving touchdowns (14). as a senior in 2013, he trumped those numbers with 112 receptions for 1,860 yards and 16 more touchdowns. he also carried the ball for 77 yards and four additional scores.

one "wonders" what numbers he need to have put up to get recruiting interest from the good programs around the country?

Yea they have been a coal black team for some time. A little surprised Will Grier didn't get a look. They had a black QB last year as well. Not a huge loss.

Zach Langer led Tulsa with 72 yards rushing on just 16 carries today in a loss against Colorado State. perhaps this is a sign that he will be getting more opportunities as the featured back in the near future.

in the FCS, Eastern Washington standout sophomore Cooper Kupp has 6 catches for 89 yards and 2 touchdowns midway through the third quarter.

he is being out shown by a White wideout on the other team, however. Idaho State sophomore Madison Mangum currently has 7 catches for 132 yards and 2 touchdowns.

************************

Yale tailback Tyler Varga ran for 83 yards and 1 touchdown on only 10 carries in a blowout win over Cornell.

************************

Zach Zenner had 139 yards on 25 carries, but his Jackrabbits got thumped by Illinois State.

************************

Fordham senior wideout Brian Wetzel continues to put up big numbers. in their win over speedster Ross Scheuerman's Lafayette Leopards, Wetzel had 6 catches for 115 yards and 1 touchdown.
