Lee Corso will return to the set of ESPN’s College GameDay Saturday morning after suffering a stroke on May 16th of this year. The 74 year old former collegiate coach, and Florida State football player, has made great strides in 4 months, but he still has trouble with writing and mobility. Corso is an original cast member of College GameDay, which premiered in 1987, and is arguably the most popular member of the show. The road to recovery for Corso has...
Dr. Bob’s review BYU at Oklahoma Saturday, Sep-05 07:00 PM Favorite: Oklahoma -22.5 Total: 67.5 Expectations of BYU fans were far too high last year, as expecting a perfect regular season and a BCS bowl bid with just 3 starters returning on defense made little sense. The Cougars struggled defensively as expected (0.1 yards per play worse than an average team) and facing TCU and Utah both on the road was too much to overcome. The Cougars should be more...
Dr. Bob’s review of Nevada at Notre Dame Saturday, Sep-05 3:30 PM (EST) Favorite: Notre Dame -14.5 Total: 62.0 Notre Dame has traditionally been overrated when pre-season expectations are positive, as the Irish are 17-30-1 ATS this decade when coming off a winning season. Notre Dame got into the winning column last season with an impressive 49-21 rout at Hawaii in which quarterback Jimmy Clausen was perfect (completed 22 of 26 passes with 4 dropped balls). That win set up...
LeGarrette Blount provided the only punch in a game Oregon will never want to talk about or remember. In an act of uncontrollable rage and cowardliness, Blount sucker punched Boise State’s Byron Hout as the clock expired on an 8-19 losing effort for the Ducks. Before kick-off, Blount was jawing at the mouth in the locker room saying Boise State deserves an ass whooping. After Blount’s lack of talent was exposed throughout the game, he decided to deliver his own...
Dr. Bob breaksdown Georgia at Oklahoma St. Saturday, Sep-05 3:30 PM (EST) Favorite: Oklahoma St. -4.5 Total: 61.5 Georgia entered last season as the nation’s #1 rated team, which was higher than my rating of the Bulldogs as the 8th best team in the nation prior to last season. Georgia actually ended last season as the 21st best team in the land thanks to a defense that had trouble defending good offensive teams. Quarterback Matthew Stafford, the NFL’s 1st...

TE Jermaine Gresham will miss Saturday’s season opener against the 20th rank BYU Cougars according to the Oklahoman. The senior Mackey Award candidate injured his knee this week in practice but school officials are keeping a tight lid on the severity of the injury. The Sooners will turn to either James Hanna or Trent Ratterree to fill in for Greshman this Saturday. Greshman surprised many by coming back to Oklahoma for his senior season as he was a sure bet to...
