We’re at about two weeks to go before the NFL season finally arrives, and that means if you haven’t finalized your fantasy preparations yet, you’re behind! Of course, there’s still time to get your league started at sports.yahoo.com or one of many other fantasy hosting sites. But as any veteran knows, fantasy football requires strategic […]
Hi all below are the results of my 2013 Fantasy football draft. The rules are 6 pts per passing TD and -2 for an interception. In regard to receiving it’s a 1/2 point per reception. I have my draft results listed below and a quick description of why I made each pick. I am not […]
Coming away from the NFL fantasy football draft with solid players is never easy. There are so many factors to consider as you build your team, and you want to make sure you land the players you really want early on and avoid ending up with a squad that looks like the 2012 Jacksonville Jaguars. […]
Ohio State Buckeyes 2012 Recap: Ohio State and Urban Meyer seem like a match made in heaven as the Buckeyes went 12-0 in his first season at the helm. Ohio State was facing sanctions and not able to participate in a bowl so a National Championship was not to be. Ohio State is eligible this […]
Florida Gators 2012 Recap: 11-2 is something we have seen at Florida many times but the way the Gators reached 11-2 was anything but typical. The passing game was virtually non-existent as the Gators ranked #114 nationally. Florida relied on the #5 national defense and a physical running game in order to get the job […]
Oregon State Beavers 2012 Recap: A 9-4 campaign offered a glimpse of how competitive Oregon State is going to be this year with losses against Texas in the bowl game, Washington, Stanford and Oregon. Oregon State lost all of their games by four points or less with the exception of the Oregon contest so they […]
South Carolina Gamecocks 2012 Recap: A 6-0 start and then the Gamecocks dropped a pair against LSU and Florida. The Gamecocks responded by winning five to close out the season including the exciting victory over Michigan in the Outback Bowl to go 11-2. Coaching: The “Ol’ Ball Coach” is still going strong at 68 and […]
Texas A&M Aggies 2012 Recap: What a way to start your SEC career. 11-2 with a Cotton Bowl win over Oklahoma and a win against Alabama in their own house. The only losses on the season were against Florida and LSU and the disheartening fact is that both losses came at home. Coaching: Kevin Sumlin […]
Oklahoma Sooners 2012 Recap: It was a very good season for Oklahoma but not spectacular as Oklahoma went 10-3 and lost in the Cotton Bowl to Texas A&M. The defense really struggled especially stopping the run so Oklahoma was involved in a few more shootouts than they wanted. Coaching: Bob Stoops has been one of […]
Boise State Broncos 2012 Recap: 2012 was a down year for Boise State, a down year is one with 2 losses and that is where Boise State was at 11-2. The defense was stellar once again and Boise State showed it could win some close game through adversity. Coaching: Chris Peterson has averaged 12 wins […]
LSU Tigers 2012 Recap: LSU is constantly at the top of the SEC and the national scene although they lost 3 games last year after losing to Clemson in their bowl game. LSU was very close to defeating Florida last year and it would have given them another crack at Alabama after their epic battles […]
Wisconsin Badgers 2012 Recap: Wisconsin was 8-5 but they won the conference title game hanging 70 on Nebraska before losing in the Rose Bowl to Stanford. Wisconsin finished 8-6 but lost 3 games in OT, they were right there in every game they played. Wisconsin now has a new coach at the helm so there […]
Washington Huskies 2012 Recap: Washington finished the year at 7-6 after a tough bowl loss to Boise State. The team suffered through three straight losses in the middle of their schedule with Oregon, USC and Arizona. Before that streak Washington had scored an upset win over Stanford and they also defeated a very sound Oregon […]
Clemson Tigers 2012 Recap: Clemson seemed to have one of the quietest 11 wins seasons ever seen. There was an exclamation point on the season as Clemson defeated LSU in the Chick-Fil-A Bowl 25-24. The only losses suffered by Clemson came against the likes of Florida State and South Carolina. Coaching: Dabo Sweeney is 40-21 […]
Florida State Seminoles 2012 Recap: It was a terrific season for the Seminoles as they defeated Northern Illinois 31-10 in the Orange Bowl for a BCS Bowl victory. In order to repeat Florida State is going to have to win with a largely new cast of characters including at quarterback where starter E.J. Manual was […]
Rutgers Scarlet Knights 2012 Recap: Rutgers has the whole college football world talking for a few weeks as first year coach Kyle Flood has a team her just inherited from Greg Schiano off to a 9-1 start. Rutgers sadly crashed to earth dropping the last two regular season games and a hard fought 13-10 loss […]
Nebraska Cornhuskers 2012 Recap: A big year for Nebraska as they finished 10-4 but they suffered two straight losses to end in the year in the Big Ten title game and against Georgia in the Capital One Bowl. Three of the four losses came against ranked teams and Nebraska enjoyed big home wins against the […]
2012 Recap: Ole Miss became bowl eligible and won the Compass Bowl over Pittsburgh 38-17. At 7-6 it seems like a mediocre season but for a team under a first year head coach, going 7-6 in the SEC is easily like 8 or 9 wins in another conference. Coaching: Hugh Freeze came in and installed […]
Notre Dame Fighting Irish 2012 Recap: It was looking like a Cinderella season for Notre Dame as they started 12-0 and had a birth in the BCS Championship game. The title game was not as close as the 42-14 score indicates, it was an absolute drubbing and it felt like Notre Dame lost by 100. […]
Michigan Wolverines 2012 Recap: Although it wasn’t the 11-2 season the Wolverines had in Brady Hoke’s first season, it was a respectable 8-5 year that unfortunately ended with a 33-28 loss to South Carolina in the Outback Bowl. Michigan has played with renewed defensive vigor under Hoke and should once again find themselves in familiar […]
