Most Surprising EDGY Award goes to the state of Arizona, as two teams the College Edge thought would suck this year, came out and destroyed their opponents. Arizona St. crushed an Illinois team without their starting QB, but, that should've been more competitive, and, the Rich Rodriquez-coached Arizona Wildcats blew out the road favorite, and last year's #2/#3 team, the Ok.St. Cowboys. As opposed to his stint in Michigan, Rodriquez may have found a nice home in Tucson.
Most Disappointing EDGY Award: Goes to Vanderbilt. I think coach Franklin is doing a nice job with the Commodores, but, it is so darn hard for bottom dwellers like Vandy to break out of that losing culture. The team loses a tough game to South Carolina, and then comes back Saturday to lose to Northwestern. It's a game Vandy should've won, and it'll be interesting to see whether the team comes back or spirals out of control.
Most Baffling EDGY Award: I went to Temple; I want Temple to win(and cover) every game; I've vowed never to recommend against my school; BUT: how the heck was Temple favored over Maryland? Maryland was in serious revenge after last year's blowout loss, the Terps had more returning starters, and Maryland has a coach in Randy Edsall who is one of the better spread coaches in college football.
Most Impressive EDGY Award: The Pac10 kicking butt out on the west coast almost won this EDGY award, but, the most impressive EDGY award goes to the team I picked to win the Big 12, the Kansas St. Wildcats. I picked KSU over Miami in one of my early recommendations because I thought the 'Cats were clearly better than the 'Canes. I did not believe they were THAT much better. KSU will be tough this year!
