Picking Games On Season’s Eve

Category: Uncategorized | 37 Comments

Last year was a good one picking games for HP. Well, I should say that the regular season was very good, as I went 58 per cent against the spread.
The bowl season, however, was a debacle that I don’t want to talk about.
So, in the spirit of moving on, here’re my picks [...]

Now presenting the 2006 HP Preseason Heisman List.
This is my third time around predicting the Heisman and I am happy to say that both my 2004 and 2005 picks were right on the money.

The Mobile Revolution

Category: Uncategorized | 11 Comments

Luke Winn of SI.com has a good read here about the rise of mobile quarterbacks.
Thanks to the efforts of Young and Michael Vick before him, the modern mobile-quarterback concept has gone mainstream in college football. The shotgun passer and zone-reading runner rolled into one is now a tried-and-true route to success. Just how deep has [...]

Keller To Nebraska

Category: Uncategorized | Leave a Comment

As we thought, it appears Sam Keller is headed to Nebraska.
It’s an amazing set of circumstances, especially considering that the Cornhuskers themselves lost their backup quarterback when Harrison Beck suddenly quit the team.
Now, Nebraska will be able to replace one senior (Zach Taylor) in 2007 with another very experienced senior (Keller).
Should make that home opener [...]
