4th Pick: A.J. Green

Great player departs Georgia, but, Bulldawgs have a returning, very good QB back, good RB back, and an all-SEC center returning. The Dawgs will miss Green, but, they'll more than survive.

3rd Pick: Marcell Dareus

Very good player for 'Bama, but, I don't believe his deparure will deter from the great defense I expect the Crimson Tide to play this year. Saban's problem will be with his offense. Reasoning for that to come.

2nd Pick: Von Miller

This guy almost single-handedly helped turn the A&M defense into a formidable unit. His departure will almost certainly return the Aggies to the pedestrian defense I've become used to. I'm not sure what his sack totals were this year, but, for the past two years his sack totals at 30, or higher. WOW!

First Pick: Cam Newton

Auburn will lose a quarterback who did everything for them this past championship season. The two years prior to his arrival, Auburn was 13-12 overall, and 5-11 vs. the SEC. With the loss of Newton, and no experienced QB returning, and also with the loss of 4 out of 5 offensive linemen from the championship team, I suspect I will be anxious to go against the Tigers this year.

THE REIGNING FAT MAN OF COLLEGE FOOTBALL

Okay, it's one thing when Kansas got rid of the co-Fat Man of College Football, Mark Mangino. You could argue he may have lost his job based on how he allegedly treated his team, and its players.
But, the reigning Fat-Man of College Football, Ralph Friedgen of Maryland, is getting fired after getting his Terps to 8-4, after a 3-9 record in 2009, and achieving Coach of the Year honors in the ACC. He has done a good job with a team that was a disgrace before he got there.
He has a good freshman QB in O'Brien, and a potential 15 starters back next year, so Friedgen is being let go at a time when his Terps appear to be in a major upswing.
The reigning "Fat-Man" of college football is getting screwed. I have an outside hope his team plays so well today, they will re-hire one of my favorite college football coaches.

HOW YOU LIKE JOE WEBB NOW?

When commentators and fans ignorantly made fun of the Vikes Joe Webb this past week, I was hoping what happened last night would come to pass.
If Webb played a school that had the name University of Alabama instead of University of Alabama at Birmingham, Joe may have won the Heisman last year.
He was in the top 5 of my favorite players last year because he almost single-handedly led his team to a bowl game( and victory) last year. During that Heisman-deserving season, Webb ran for 1400 yards, passed for 2300 yards and scored 21 Tds on the ground, and 12 through the air. That's 33 darn touchdowns. Commentators and fans belittled Webb foolishly last week. Webb( AND ME) HAD THE LAST LAUGH.
See, another learning moment courtesy of a person who may know more about college football than anyone you will meet in your lifetime.

YO, SUCKERS

For those of you who were sucked in by Iowa's "devastating" suspensions, here's my message, and another point you should register as a learning moment: Teams like Iowa, now a top program, have recruits to replace suspended players. Freshman RB Marcus Coker, a top 50 RB coming out of high school, gained over 215 yards tonight.
If this were UTEP, or Tulsa, or SMU, or Troy, or Northern Illinois, or pick your mediocre program, a suspension is devastating news. At programs like Iowa, forget about it. Okay, I will go to sleep now with the comfort of knowing I taught you somethin
