foobar75 said:Watching Jordan Shipley absolutely toy with and destroy the black CBs trying to guard him was quite a sight! And how about that punt return for a TD! Even the announcers had no choice but to use caste-free commentary, and simply admit how quick and athletic Shipley is. He was unstoppable tonight.
Big 12 helmet stickers from ESPN:
Texas wide receiver/punt returner Jordan Shipley: The nation's most underrated playmaker produced 11 receptions for 147 yards and a 39-yard touchdown and also added a 74-yard punt return for another score leading Texas to a 38-14 victory over Colorado. Shipley now has double-figure receiving games in a school-record three-straight games. And he also produced a career-high 273 all-purpose yards against the Buffaloes, averaging 17.1 yards every time he touched the ball.
Kansas' aerial circus: Quarterback Todd Reesing and wide receivers Dezmon Briscoe and Kerry Meier all had outstanding games in the Jayhawks' wild 41-36 victory over Iowa State. Meier set a school single-game record with 16 receptions for 142 yards and two touchdowns. He also has the school's career reception with 151 catches. Reesing tied a school record with 37 completions en route to a career-high 442 yards and four touchdowns. And Briscoe produced 12 receptions for 142 yards and two touchdowns including a clutch, diving 46-yard touchdown pass in the fourth quarter that gave the Jayhawks the lead for good.
Austin, TX (Sports Network) - Jordan Shipley was a one-man show for No. 2 Texas, recording a 74-yard punt return for a touchdown while adding 11 catches for 147 yards and another score in a deceptively close 38-14 victory over Big 12 foe Colorado ...
BUFFALO, NY (UB Media Release) - The University at Buffalo football team dominated in all phases of the game in a 40-3 Homecoming day victory over Gardner-Webb before 15,812 fans. Buffalo for 258 yards, with senior flanker Brett Hamlin recording six receptions for 132 yards and a touchdown ...
Maynard hit Hamlin for a 50-yard catch and run to set up the first score of the second quarter that was capped by a one-yard pass from Maynard to Rack, where Rack made an acrobatic catch over a Gardner-Webb defender in the back of the end zone.
After forcing a G-W punt on a three-and-out, the Bulls struck again. This time Thermilus had a 21-yard run and Maynard connected with Hamlin on a diving 39-yard strike down the center of the field to get the Bulls on the march. Maynard would eventually find Rack again â€" for the fifth time this year in the end zone â€" on a nine-yard toss across the middle.
The Bulls would tack on another second-quarter touchdown when Nduka dove over the pile from one yard out. Again, Hamlin had the key grab with a 28-yard toss from Maynard ...
i like Forzani's attitude!PULLMAN â€" Quarterback Jeff Tuel and receiver Johnny Forzani ensured they will always stay in the Washington State record book.
The two teamed up on a 99-yard touchdown pass Saturday in the Cougars' 27-14 loss to Arizona State, the longest offensive play in Washington State history.
"Before we went out on that drive, actually we were talking about it," Tuel said. "He was telling me, 'I don't care what the route is, I can run by these guys. I can get a step on them.'
"I thought it was a good time to give him a shot for a ball and he made a great play on it."
Arizona State cornerback Josh Jordan had decent coverage on Forzani, a redshirt junior from Calgary, Alberta, who played last year for the scout team of the Stampeders. But Forzani was able to adjust quicker, taking the ball away as Jordan tried to get his hands on it.
"The ball was just perfect the way [Tuel] put it," Forzani said. "That was pretty much it. I just took off with it."
Jordan was off balance and, by the time he regained his footing, Forzani had a couple yards on him.
"We all know he can run," said Tuel, the true freshman making his second start. "It's just a matter of giving him the opportunity."
"I've got pretty good wheels," Forzani said. "I'd be surprised if anyone caught me."
No one did this time, and the duo replaced Steve Birnbaum and Nian Taylor's 97-yard pass play against Idaho from the record book.
"I didn't even think about [the record] until it came up afterward," Forzani said. "They were like, 'You set a record, you set a record.' I was mad we were still behind. I wanted to get back in the game."

I had NO IDEA that Conner Vernon was tearing it up for Duke as a true frosh! Thanks for the info!

I really hope we don't hear about some "Afro" ancestry... I did see his TD catch several hours ago during the recast of the Duke/NC State game. The cornroles are GONE!! Some posters will know what I'm talking about.
