The wheels on the ground game are rolling, and UA is leading the SEC in rushing yards. Rushing success usually equals team success in this league, and Bama is in the driver's seat in the West at 6-0. TM Another key to success is getting the lead early, and Bama has outscored its opponents 88-0 in the first quarter. More ...

Talk about the Gators underachieving offense, and QB, intensified after the Ole Miss game, but the numbers suggest it's one of the best in the SEC. UF ranks 1st in scoring and 4th in rushing. Tim Tebow is 1st in passing efficiency, 3rd in TDs and 5th in passing yards. More ... Has the extra week off helped the Dawgs regain their confidence?

A win over Miami was huge because it gives FSU the edge in the fight to re-gain national prominence. However, they will need some help from Wake Forest in order to play for the ACC crown. The Noles racked up over 250 rushing yards for the second consecutive game and eclipsed the 40-point mark for the third time in five games (FSU had 39 vs. Colorado). More ...

Graig Cooper, a WR, accumulated 51 passing yards, almost half of Marve's total, on just one attempt. UM will need much more consistency behind center to make it to a bowl this year. More ... The Knights snapped a three-game losing streak by beating SMU last weekend. But they will have to come up with a great performance against Miami in order not to begin a new one.
