Yes, during the first half WSU moved the ball OK.  And the defense
was doing a pretty good job.  It didn't help that WSU gave away
two touchdowns---Bledsoe's fumble on the 4.  And did you see that
amazing pass?  Bledsoe was being sacked, and he heave the ball
about 50 yards.  It went right to CJ Davis, who is a great receiver
and was 10+ yards past his coverage, but CJ let it go through his
hands.  

Anyway, at halftime (10-3 Stanford) I thought it would be OK; the Cougars
generally make good halftime adjustments and then score a lot of
points in the 3rd quarter.  But then Bledsoe was getting no protection
(and didn't seem to be having a great day) and the defense was
not getting to the QB and was making a lot of arm tackes that
were broken.

I don't know if Stanford's offense came alive or the WSU defense
got tired or outsmarted or whatever.  Those two 30+ Mylburn touchdown
runs where he took one step left and cut right to get a pitch were
definitely poetry.  But in the first half the Cougs put good pressure
on  the Stanford QB, but in the second half they gave him 5-6 seconds
to pass, and this just killed us.

I recently received the Former Student Association's 1993 calendar, and was 
looking at the football schedule.  It shows us starting the season against 
LSU.  First, I thought our series with the tigers was finished, second 
there is no game against OU who I thought we played next year?  Is this 
correct or does someone have a more accurate schedule?  Thanx.

The most amazing thing about it is that the Michigan haters will try to

Being an SU fan, and therefore completely unbiased :),
I believe Syracuse really has a shot to win this one.
It will take their best effort in years, but they could do it.

Marvin has been terrific lately, except for a few handoff fumbling
problems.  The rush defense has been dominate.  The only questionmark
I have is the secondary.  They are playing much better than early
in the year, but Torretta is a fantastic quarterback.
Playing the deafening Dome will be a big plus for SU too.
A key for them (always) is to score early and first - that seems
to build their confidence tremendously for a big game.

My prediction:  Syracuse 35 - Miami 32.

That would throw all these bowls plans into an uproar...

It does. ;)

The upset was of Texas A&M, and it was his next-to-last year.  But the "rode
of on the shoulders" part is accurate.  Along with the dapper attire, stupid
fedora, and the red shoes: all part of his flailing effort to pacify the
critics who said that he, and his teams, lacked style.

Gosh, I hated those red shoes.  Let's hope they don't show up ever again!

I read today that Kordell Stewart set a number of passing records for the
University of Colorado.  Yet, given his current status, sophomore I believe, he
would have been recruited as an option Quarterback.  CU fans, what is Stewart's
background?   Was he a passing QB/running QB/option QB in High School?  Where
is he from?  Also, how do you feel he stacks up nationally against QBs such as
Torretta (sp) and Charlie Ward?  He seems to be a pretty cool customer for a
sophomore.

Also, the two wide receivers who went over 1,000 yards in receptions?  What is
the status on them?

As I have stated in a previous post, both Miami and FSU would _love_ to play
each other again. Why? Simple, because almost without exception, the FSU-Miami
game is one of, if not _the_ best game of the year. Players, coaches, and fans
of both teams love to watch the two teams go at each other. Both teams are
very evenly matched, with similar talent, defense, and offense. The games are
almost always down to the wire (excluding 84 and 88, when each team clobbered
the other) and are extremely exciting and emotional. If there is a rematch in
the Fiesta, it would not be a "rehash", as you call it, but rather what would
probably be the best bowl game in the last decade. Besides, by the time the
bowls make thier choises this year, there may not be any other undefeated 
teams left for Miami to play, or Miami may not be undefeated (though this I
highly doubt). You also state that Miami would have nothing to gain from
such a rematch. This is quite wrong. If FSU is reanked second in the country,
and Miami were to defeat them in the bowl game, then this would be "proof"
that they are deserving of the NC (though I would rather have a playoff system
myself).

>(And to think I used to like fsu, even during the CB last year.:(:( )

Why, exactly, do you _not_ like FSU this year? Is it because some twitty
journalist has placed them ahead of TAMU? Seems senseless to all of the
sudden stop liking one of the most genuinely exciting football teams in the
country because of what someone else has done or said. Don't blame FSU for
the actions of others.

The word is that they had a "meeting" with coaches to air grievances, many
of which concerning the quarterback situation and who should be playing.  It

more play time.

Like a lot of other teams, FSU is only a couple of mistakes away from
being undefeated.  Although not an FSU fan, I do believe they may have
the weapons it takes to be the best team in the country.  TAMU really
isn't in their league.  That loss weighs heavy in the minds of most
pollsters, though.  It's tough to be MNC when you have a loss and some
other team doesn't.

Prarie View A&M is a school in the Southwestern Athletic Conference, a league 
consisting of "traditionally black" schools such as Grambling, Jackson St., 
Alcorn St., etc.  Two years ago, the school dropped football, but picked it 
back up again last year.  They do not give athletic aid of any kind to 
athletes, and simply hold tryouts among the student body.  They have not won a
game since picking football back up.  Last year, they lost to Alabama St. 91-0.

BTW, their basketball team did not win a game last year, either.

Academically, they are a pretty good institution, and are a leader among black
colleges in sending students to medical and law school.  There was a very good
article on Prarie View in USA Today sports a couple of weeks ago.
