The Weekend Depth Chart

OK, so this isn't a real depth chart, but it is a fairly creative way for me to sum up this past weekend in sports.

First String
  • The "Top 3" in college football had an excellent weekend outscoring opponents 137- 31. And let's face it the SEC will probably be decided on November 11th at Bryant- Denny Stadium in Tuscaloosa. Oklahoma has a fairly easy schedule with their toughest game being at Oklahoma State. To me, it's looking like a Big 12 vs. SEC match up in the National Championship game.
  • This year's Fall Classic is setup with the Rangers playing the Cardinals. Yes, the Rangers are the logical choice. Yes, on paper they look very, very good. And believe me, they ARE very, very good. However, there is one intangible that the Cards posses that is very important in all playoff situations. They are hot. Smoking hot. This year's World Series is looking very promising for ALL fans of baseball.
  • We learned several things this past Sunday. You can only contain Tom Brady for 57 minutes. Sean Payton is hurt. And this (might?) affect his team. And Handshakes can be offensive.
Second String
(For this section, we'll highlight admirable effort)
  • Mississippi State played very well for a team who has been spiraling downward. They gave the #15 USC Gamecocks a real scare. Tyler Russell didn't play great, but put his team in a position to win. And isn't that all you can really ask from a redshoirt sophmore? Connor Shaw looked OK too, using his legs to help the Gamecocks to a win.
  • Texas played much better than I expected (and a lot of other people) . They played the #4 team in the BCS rankings extremely well.'
  • Admirable effort indeed. Watch #21. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2wJF6s9MtOM&feature=related
Injury Report
(Real Injuries)
  • Sean Payton, Coach NO Saints- Out for a couple of days.
  • Marcus Lattimore,RB USC Gamecocks- out for season
  • I told you i wouldnt report on NASCAR, so I won't. But INDYCAR lost driver Dan Wheldon in a horrible crash this weekend. Our prayers are with his family.
