    NCAA Football 2017 Thread

    I could probably convert the draft thread into a NCAA thread but we dont have enough members here who follow. So we will just use this thread to discuss the season and potential draftable players. Ill move it to the draft thread after the season ends.

    I'll say it now. If he's there in the 2nd I want Royce Freeman. Pairing him with Gordon (with a competent OL) would give us a deadly rushing attack.

      Would love to see him used more in the passing game. They need to get him 50 catches this year. He needs to shed the Stewart comparison. lol

        Agreed. Part of the issue is Oregon has a lot of smaller backs that are outstanding receivers out of the backfield so they get more of those looks. He has shown consistent hands when given the opportunity though. He also has more top end speed than Stewart. Really solid in pass protection too.

          I think there is a game tonight? Rice v. Stanford in the Land of Oz.

            MEH. I can think of other roster spots we can spend a second on. I like upgrading the backup RB, but RBs can easily be found on day 3. I like him as a back. I think he will have a great year. Really like the Willie Taggert hire there.

              I agree about the other roster spots but I think Lynn's commitment to the run game puts a premium on the RB2 spot. I like Oliver but there's definitely room for improvement there. Grab a LT in round one and I don't think many here will complain which direction we go in round 2. I'm not real hopeful it will play out where he's even available to us in the 2nd but a guy can dream.

            I'm excited for College Football this year! The South Dakota State Jackrabbits are loaded.

            TE Dallas Goedert is McShay's top TE in all of CFB this year.

            WR Jake Weineke is on every NFL Team's radar (probable day 2 pick)

            And the reigning MVFC Offensive player of the year, QB Taryn Christion is back, as a Junior.

            Opening night is just 2 days away.
            "...of course that's just my opinion, I could be wrong."

              Watching Maryland vs Texas is like watching the Chargers Special Teams unit go against itself.

              You could take this either way, but even as Navy was smashing FAU, Lane Kiffen still wanted to finish the game after three lightning delays... 3 hours to play the 4th quarter.

                Michigan's all maize uniforms are rough on the eyes. I say this as a Duck fan....

                  I love the Terps uniforms. I wish the Bolts would bring in somebody creative to design theirs.
                  Now, if you excuse me, I have some Charger memories to suppress.
                  The Wasted Decade is done.

                    USC looking less than impressive to start out.
