Trell's College Football Top 25 Week 6 Edition

By -
1. Florida State (4-0) W at North Carolina State 56-41

Rashad Greene leads the ACC in receptions and receiving yards
Down 24-7 after the 1st quarter, Florida State rallies back from what started off as a disaster return for Jameis Winston. Riddled with injuries defensively, the Seminoles allowed 520 total yards versus previously undefeated NC State. Jameis Winston throws for 365 yards with four touchdowns and two second half interceptions. Senior wide receiver Rashad Greene caught 11 passes for 125 yards and a touchdown. Florida State will face 2-3 Wake Forest in Tallahassee Saturday.

2. Oregon (4-0) IDLE

The Ducks will play undefeated Arizona at home after a bye week. The Oregon offense is 4th national in scoring averaging 48.5 points per game. Oregon should not take Arizona lightly. The Wildcats lead the Pac-12 in yards per game with 594 per. Marcus Mariota and the Ducks offense must take care of the ball if they want to avoid the upset.

Royce Freeman leads the Pac-12 in rushing touchdowns with five

3. Alabama (4-0) IDLE

Blake Sims 190.8 passer rating is tops in the SEC
Alabama will take their top 10 scoring defense to Oxford where they will take on #11 Ole Miss.  Alabama will have two weeks to prepare for the Rebels after a 42-21 win over Florida and a bye week. Amari Cooper name is surfacing on Heisman list so expect Blake Sims to target him early and often. Ole Miss will be prepared for Alabama's passing attack as the Rebels lead the SEC in interceptions with nine.




4. Oklahoma (4-0) IDLE

The Sooners will travel to Ft. Worth for a showdown with unbeaten #25 TCU. Last time Oklahoma went to TCU it resulted in a 7 point win for the Sooners back in 2012. Bob Stoops has his team on an 8-game winning streak but TCU is 2nd in the nation in scoring defense and total defense. This could be trouble for the Sooners if they begin to look ahead to the Red River Shootout a week too early. 

Oklahoma has scored 30+ points in each of their previous eight wins

5. Auburn (4-0) W vs Louisiana Tech 45-17

Auburn jumped out to a 24-3 halftime lead and did not look back. Nick Marshall threw 3 touchdowns in the blowout victory. Senior wide receiver Quay Bray had a standout game with 3 catches for 91 yards, two touchdowns and a 76 yard punt return for a touchdown. Auburn will meet up with SEC West rival LSU Saturday at home.

Cameron Artis-Payne rushed for a game high 116 yards vs La Tech

The NFL has Failed Colin Kaepernick.

Google Why hasn't any NFL team signed Colin Kaepernick yet or will they for that matter? Does he even deserve another chance ? It's hard to make a case for him as of late, I mean in his last 24 starts he is just 4-20 which is awful to say the least. But lets be honest the San Fransico 4'9ers are an awful organization that was doomed the day they let Jim Harbaugh walk out the door. He was put into a position to fail as a quarterback over the past 2 seasons. So yes this man deserves another shot in the NFL. Since 1995 the 4'9ers have reached one Super Bowl and guess who was the quarterback? That's right Kaep!! He has 72 career touchdowns to just 30 interceptions, 2300 career rushing yards. In his first career post season game he totaled 444 total yards of offense with 4 touchdowns. This guy is a stud and you mean to tell me he can't even be a back up? Its not what's happening on the field because guys like Jay Cutler, Nick Foles, Blaine Gabbert, keeping f

Warriors Clinch Number 1 Seed

By -
Last night the Golden State Warriors clinched their 3rd consecutive number 1 seed in the western conference playoffs with a 12 0-111 victory over the Phoenix Suns.  Stephen Curry finished the game 8-13 from 3-point range on the way to 43 points and 11 assist. Klay Thompson chipped in 22 points as the Warriors win their 13th straight game. During the Warriors winning streak Stephen Curry is 26.3 points and assist per game and shooting 46% from the 3-point line. As a team Golden State has figured out how to play at a high level despite losing their leading scorer Kevin Durant a little over a month ago. Losers of 4 out of their first 6 games without KD, the Warriors average margin of victory during their the streak is 15.3 points per game. Also with the win, Golden State become the 1st NBA team to win 65 games for 3 straight seasons. The Warriors have been the best team in the NBA since Steve Kerr took over 2 seasons ago. After adjusting to the Durant injury this team looks unbeatable

Five CFB Coaches That Will Never Win a National Championship

By -

1. Mark Richt (127-64 record at Georgia) Richt took over as head coach of the Bulldogs after six years under Bobby Bowden at Florida State. In just his second season, Richt lead Georgia to a 12-1 which included an SEC Championship and a Sugar Bowl win. Since, Coach Richt has posted seven 10+ win seasons and two BCS Bowls.  The recent success of Mark Richt has made Bulldog fans forget about that four game losing streak in 2010 that could have cost Richt his job. Unfortunately for Georgia, Coach Richt has yet to make an championship game appearance and has not been to a BCS bowl since 2007. The SEC is the toughest conference in college football and with Georgia not having a top 5 recruiting class since 2011, the Bulldogs does not have enough depth to make a run at a national championship anytime soon. 2. Frank Beamer (226-110-2 at Virginia Tech) Frank Beamer has been a staple at Virginia Tech since his arrival in 1987.  His numbers are legendary including seven conference champ
