Fantasy Football Week 8 Suggestions Sometimes the fantasy football gods just don’t want you to be happy. Anybody who’s played for a while has at some point felt their wrath, but if proof ever was needed that sometimes you’re destined to lose, consider this torturous series of events I endured last week: – Rudi Johnson gets stopped near the goal line, and on the next play the Bengals pass to somebody else for a score. – Willie Parker gets stopped near the goal line, and on the next play the Steelers pass to somebody else for a score. – Jake Delhomme…
Heisman Trophy Top-10 (Monday, October 23) There are six CFB weekends remaining in the 2006 regular season, with almost all schools wrapping up their games over the next five weekends.

And, Smith has a significant lead as he passes the three-quarters pole! My latest Heisman update follows.

Four teams entered last week winless, but three teams won for the first time in 2006. Detroit held on for…

College Football Week 7 Will Week 7 of CFB be a "lucky-seven" for CFB’s 2nd-ranked team in the AP? So far, being ranked No. 2 in the writers’ poll has been has not a good position. In Week 1, No.2 Notre Dame barely escaped in Atlanta against Ga Tech, 14-10. The poor showing saw the Irish fall to No. 4 in the next week’s poll. The nation’s new No. 2 was Texas, which promptly lost at home to No. 1 Ohio State, ending the defending champs’ 21-game winning streak. Note Dame was back at No.2 the following week and of…
