Go TIGERS baby!!!! Man, Sammy Watkins is a monster! I could seriously see him winning the heisman either next year or the year after. Hes that phenomenal. I will go out on a limb and say he's the third best WR in college, after Jeffery and Blackmon.
Now, a few thoughts before I get back to Watkins.
Allen is the best TE in the country. He is definitely our best player.
Boyd is showing promise, but he still makes some questionable decisions, mainly that intellectually- disabled fumble. Just take the sack dude.
I think we are legitimate national championship contender. Our main problem? Dabo. I'm sorry, but he's not a good coach. Our OC, can't remember his name but he was Tulsa's OC before he came here, is amazing. What he has done has been incredible. But Dabo made a really dumb call which could have cost us the game. It's fourth down and 1, and he calls a run play for Ellington. Ellington is the most overrated player on our team. I know he had 1000 yards rushing before, but hes not very good at all. I would bench him for Bellamy. But our best players are Boyd, Watkins, and Allen, and he puts the ball in ELLINGTON's hands?! Geeeez, that call could have really cost us.
Brandon Thompson should not be a top NFL draft prospect. Dude did nothing and didnt get any pressure on Trickett. Moore was much better than him, and DEMOLISHED Trickett on the final play of FSU's drive.
Ok, now Sammy Watkins. I love this guy so much. He is actually in my English class, which only consists of about 15 people. This is really cool, considering I've never seen anybody remotely famous before in my life. But this guy is the anti-wide receiver. He is so humble and kind that it is not even funny. Our teacher is a huge football fan and chats with him a lot, and he doesnt brag or anything. He really is a kind person, and I hope he is able to succeed at the next level(NFL). But this might be a little racist, but first day of class I see him walk in. Now I have no idea that hes a football player, but I see a big guy walk in with dreads, so I think to myself jokingly that he must be a football player because he has long dreads and is huge. I hope that doesnt come off as racist lol. So the next day I am on bleacher report reading Clemson articles. On the side I see a face. It was hard to make out because the picture was small, but I thought to myself, "Is that Samuel from english class?!" Click the link, and yuppers, it was him. I thought how awesome! Now this was well before the season so I had no earthly idea that he would be this amazing. But I still thought it was cool.
Go Tigers!....oh and Go Rockets!

My God, I'm so proud of these guys. I really hope we can pull out a win in Blacksburg next week. I did have my doubts coming into the season, but man, and I elated. Never in my wildest dreams would I have thought we would have drawn 1st blood on the defending champs and then crushed FSU in a pivotal ACC battle. Can't wait for the polls to come out. We should be at least Top 15 !

We should be at least Top 15 ! I think we definitely have a shot at beating Tech. I think our problems are the smaller games, like UNC or Maryland. It's typical Clemson to win big time games like this, then choke against worse teams. Hell, we almost lost to Wofford, yet we dominated Auburn and handled FSU pretty easily.

Is anybody watching the UA/Oregon game? Arizona is making a huge comeback. Down 35-3 at half time, now 35-24.

I like Clemson. They are a good, fast young team. Florida 12th! Although I don't see us beating Bama next week.

And our run game isnt great. I hate ellington, he sucks so hard. But Boyd looks legit, he's got an NFL arm, and he is quick.

Alot of good wideouts in college right now, but other than the top 3 of Blackmon/Jeffrey/Floyd, there are some guys who stand out. First, Mohammed Sanu from Rutgers..he has the size, the strength, the hands and the speed to be a top wideout in the NFL, he's a pure athlete but a work in progress, reminds me a little of Kenny Britt, the apprentice of Sanu. Sammy Watkins is also another, talked alot on here as well, the kid is a true freshman tearing up top 25 defences, and is wiser than his age. Robert Woods from USC is an interesting case as well, reminds me of Hakeem Nicks, great hands..understands the game and is a crisp route runner, top 5 in receiving yards so far this season as well.

Wait, I thought the Coaches poll is the poll that is the final decision of rankings? If UO is 1 in the Coaches poll why is LSU 1?

Well I would be lying if I said I expected to win last night. Being 17th in the rankings isn't that bad, only 5 spots. But Texas 11th and Michigan 12th is a little high.
Also Clemson is 8th now! I'll be rooting for this team to go beyond that.

Clemson is at #8!?!?!?!?! If we somehow reach a BCS game this year, thirty years after our national championship, I may cry tears of joy for thirty days and nights. So proud to have orange blood in my veins!

Wow. I knew Auburn would be ranked, but I never imagined it would be at 15. Auburn surely does not deserve that high of a ranking/ I guess it might be because of a lot of teams in the Top 25 getting beat. I was really impressed with Auburn's defense this week. We only gave up 66 yards to Lattimore, and we forced some good turnovers. Offense wasn't hitting on all cylinders, but I think we can fix that fairly easily. We are playing at Arkansas this week. After seeing Arkansas give up so many yards rushing, I think we'll be able to gash them for yards and wear down the clock. Defense should be able to get some pretty good pressure on Wilson after seeing how easily their line lets in defenders. Waaaaaaar Eaaaaaaaagle!!!
