Another predictable trend. Stud white skill position player gets a chance to shine on primetime ESPN and he has the worst game of the season. Cody Thompson of Toledo who has been on a tear of late was overshadowed by two other black wideouts on Toledo. And right on cue his chances for huge plays were screwed up because the QB was way off target. OK maybe Thompson was the main focus of the Ohio D last night but still this underwhelming performance on big time TV happens too often to white wide receivers. I like the way Thompson moves. Silky smooth. He looks like an NFL receiver. Will he emerge as an NFL prospect next year we can only hope and pray. The game was not a complete loss. And forgive me if I missed it but has anybody mentioned red shirt freshman slot receiver WR Kyle Belack of Ohio? He had a huge 50 yard plus TD and the announcers were talking up his speed. He looked fast to me and the Ohio coach, former Nebraska coach who should not have gotten fired way back, seems like a fair enough guy.
