NFL Draft notes - college football open thread

  So we ushered in the college football week earlier with a look at the WR Big Boards from myself and buckeyefan55.  Good convo over there; feel free to chime in on what has become a Alshon v. Blackmon debate (and I expect it to stay that way unless our reserve corners play so badly it scares people into pulling for a corner in round 1).

  But there are many other positions in the game of football besides wide receiver.  Should you not know this, why not watch a contest of the sport in question with valiant athletes competing in a structured environment iudex accensus?  From the silly to the sillier: Western Kentucky at Middle Tennessee St. (ESPNU, 7:30pm)

  Not much to watch, although Lil' Bobby Rainey on WKU is fun to watch.  He's tiny, and he's quick.  And the Hilltoppers' ILB, Andrew Jackson, is a machine.  As an NFL prospect, though, he's pretty slow out of the blocks.  Let's keep moving...

  I do have the other game on the week 6 watchlist (which has 3 games and now includes stock movement for previously included games...seriously, check it out): Cal-Oregon (ESPN, 9:00pm). I'll let the watchlist speak for itself on this game as a whole, but keep an eye out for Oregon FS John Boyett.  He's had some big games against LSU and Arizona; if he continues to play well as the passing defense valve at the back of the Ducks' defense, he could find himself being selected on day two (should he declare - he's still just a junior).

  So hit it up here for the night.  Yay football.

This game might get ugly… GET EM CAL!

Two things about me will never change. I will always root for the Rams, and I will always root against the Niners.

Draft Prospects Cal and Oregon

  CB Cliff Harris 5’11 165# Oregon. Suspended for the 1st 3 games of 2011; Harris had a quiet debut against Arizona with 3 solo TKL’s. In 2010 Harris had 6 INT’s with one returned for a TD. He also had 4 TD’s as a punt returner. Harris was used in kick off returns for a total of 143 yards on 7 returns. LB Mychal Kendricks 6’1 240# Cal. In 2010 Kendricks played OLB and garnered 15 TFL’s 8 sacks and an INT. He has sinced moved to ILB in a 3-4. He has 1 sack thus far in 2011. Looking forward to watching them both this evening.

The bigger question isn't are we gonna get Jefferey, it's what are we gonna call him.

Optimus. And if we get Claiborne or Jenkins in the second, we gotta call him StarScream, cause they just swoop in and take people down

but then megatron owns them

and they’re a little bitch.

I know, but Jenkins just looks like StarScream

He’s got an actual wing like wingspan. Would you prefer to call them Ratchet (due to corners usually being small)

by King Sam Rules! on Oct 6, 2011 8:03 PM CDT via mobile up reply actions  

we can call him a a super hornet

I'm likin g Unicron

They swallow up anything, and crush everything thing in front of them. That covers Jenkins ability to cover recievers and light up a qb

by King Sam Rules! on Oct 6, 2011 8:14 PM CDT via mobile up reply actions  

didn't know Unicorns swallowed

but kinda expected it :p

And continuing the transformer reference

You could call our whole team The Fallen at this point

I guess we could call them Unicron

Cause they swallow up anything. Who needs and island when you have a black hole?

by sergey606 on Oct 6, 2011 8:14 PM CDT reply actions  

no

just needed to stop them on this drive (which they didn’t); and they were very fast on O – which is hard to sustain, unless you’re the ducks

Damn

This kid for Cal can kick. Not a great leg, but damn good accuracy. That third FG barely crept over the bar from 54, but it was right down the middle

oh, come on Beaver...

You don’t know if he’s really a good WR yet? What is it you need to see? Very fluid, great zone awareness, solid hands, great second gear…if he was on Oregon St. you’d be pimpin him all over TST!

yeah, he just ran that crossing route kinda weak

could’ve caught it, but instead of moving his whole body to the ball he just reached and dropped it. but other catches were great.
I just don’t know if a lot of it is due to his brother throwing it to him, so he has nearly perfect timing

If anyone cares what I have to say on Twitter: @Sergey_Konyshev

by sergey606 on Oct 6, 2011 9:48 PM CDT up reply actions  

he should have caught it

I think he was scared of the contact. Gotta go 100% on that. But you saw how open he was. He finds zone space so easily

And for all my other college fans

PLEASE watch College Gameday this Saturday. RRR is a great atmosphere. Texas & OU fans, State Fair (about 4 minutes from where I grew up), great beer, the most incredible fried foods ever…I miss it. But check it out. Gives you a better sense of Dallas as a city than any Cowboys game on national TV.

Would have set up one of those classic RRR games. Still could be special though. And yes, the food this year is as wacky as ever.
