College football -- 10/12-14

I'm sue he did some damage to his draft status tonight. Ron Mexico Jr. stomping ELvis Dumervil in the Gator Bowl last year certainly didn't do him any favors in regards to his character.

Merriweather will be in the NFL next year so having his scholarship revoked is meaningless.

Didn't realize he was a senior. But he's played his last college game.

Yep, and he's already famous -- or infamous. He was the guy West Virginia RB Quincy Wilson steamrolled and then hurdled on his way to a touchdown during to the consensus play of the year in 2003.

EDIT: Adding YouTube link. Merriweather is No. 19.

Ron Mexico, Jr. can't play. Merriweather was a first or second round pick. Merriweather had a gun incident over the summer which might hurt more than anything. I think it was declared sefl-defense but he got off a few rounds.

Well, that, and it gives the rest of the ACC the chance to inevitably trip all over itforkingself the rest of the year.

Anybody here really think the WVU-Louisville winner won't go undefeated?

 

[Cosmo]

DOH ... seriously, does Rutgers even register a blip? I think that's a pretty dangerous team.

 

[kingcreole]

Even if the NCAA has any balls it would make the Miami/FIU game a double forfeit.

But we know that won't happen.

 

[BitterYoungMatador2]

I see either Rutgers or Pitt dropping a huge shirt in the lap of either WVU or Louisville.

Larry Coker's a good man.

 

[DisembodiedOwlHead]

Rutgers is pretty good, but to assume that a 5-7 winner wouldn't beat them (in WVU's case , a home game ) seems a little bit disingenuous.

 

[Cosmo]

I certainly think WVU would be a favorite ... but to dismiss Rutgers entirely seems to be a little cocky, that's all.

In other news, Oklahoma State WR Adarius Bowman had 13 catches for 300 forking yards against Kansas.

13 receptions, 300 yards.

Carry on.
