BC beats Clemson, 16-10
Sounds good, I'll start one in the next couple of days. William and Mary is a very White friendly school for athletics.
They're 2009 Basketball team which lost to an all Black ODU in the CAA Championship last year went 21-12 and had road victories over Richmond, Wake Forest, and Maryland.
That team had four out of five White starters and 10 of 12 Whites overall. I went to a few of their games last year. They were a very fun team to watch!!
Watching the game live on espn.com
The Tribe is nursing a 10 point lead with 12 minutes but UNC is driving.

Zach Line just reached the 100 yard mark only 14 carries with a 33 yard rush, then takes it in on a 6 yard touchdown the next play, making this game only a touchdown away for SMU to win.
The very offensive play (after a turnover) Line scores another touchdown from 7 yards out, making it a tied game. This will more than make up for his fumble in the red zone earlier in the game. Man Line looks really good. Now is listed with 146 yards on 17 carries, he now has had a 20+ yard runs in 7 games this season, which shows quickness. In the spread there are more unblocked defenders after the los, because wide receivers will not block that great, so you have to be really quick/agile.

Tennessee deserved to lose... aside from starting a coal-black O-line, they, of course, have a nearly coal-black defense... and they made true frosh (RB) Marcus Lattimore look better than he is.
This presents an interesting "case study" when discussing size of White RBs and black RBs. Lattimore has some height and athleticism, but as far as "size"... he isn't "thicker" than our White 18-year-old prospective RBs.
I will contend that Whites are more likely to create an Adrian Peterson, streamlined-built RB... while blacks are more likely to create LeGarrette Blount's and Anthony Dixon's (obese-types). http://espn.go.com/nfl/players/profile?playerId=13212
One of the biggest Caste-era lies is that "blacks are more likely to have streamlined physiques and loose hips." I see NO evidence that that is "more likely"... Just as with all the gangly black receivers and DBs, a "White" Marcus Lattimore would be called "too thin."

Conner Vernon is tearing it up with 5 catches for 90 yards and a touchdown.
TJ Moe with 5 catches 71 yds and a TD so far. A lot of praise for Moe in the Missou/Nebraska telecast: per Ron Franklin, Moe can bench 23 reps of 225 lbs. Awesome for a 200 lb wide reciever.
Another good game for Ryan Swope, with 7 rec. 105 yards so far. Mike Trumpy finishes with 21 for 110 and 3 rec 54 yds in a NW win.

Sorry, I don't. It's on one of the more obscure CBS C cable channels on Comcast out where I live. 14-10 now, Utah.snow said:

James Morris LB Iowa freshman is a player to watch out in the upcoming years.
Its amazing how much better Penn State looks with McGloin in there. They won their last game with him coming in at the 2nd quarter, and it looks like they will win this one. The only wins Bolden had were against Kent St, Temple, and Youngstown St, (3 tds and 3 int), didn't win against any big 10 teams, unless you count the first quarter of the Minnesota game.

Man, that Utah defense is big, strong, quick, and they hit hard too...just stopping Air Force on a two-point conversion. Utah up 28-23 over Air Force, 10 min left in the 4th Qtr.

Wow, looks like Texas is going to lose another home game, this time to Baylor, 22-30. Texas may not even become bowl-eligible this year.

How great would a Boise St vs. Utah championship game be? If it's even possible under the BCS.
