Dolphins-Panthers

Sun Sentinel  

For the first time this preseason, several Dolphins
players sported the jersey numbers worn by their counterparts on the Carolina
Panthers at practice to prepare for Thursday’s exhibition.At
Monday’s practice Dolphins receivers Fred Gibson, Marcus Vick and Jamall Broussard were doing their best imitations of
Panthers receivers Keyshawn Johnson, Steve Smith and Keary
Colbert. Running back Kay-Jay Harris was wearing William DeAngelo’s
No. 34, and defensive end Ben Ishola had on No. 90
for Julius Peppers. “We go out there and have more of an in-season practice,
some stuff against each other, some stuff against the scout team,” Saban said. “Everybody is kind of a little bit out of
synch, but I was really pleased with the way the players responded as the
practice went on.” Bet the

Dolphins coach Nick Saban said
that his starters likely will still be on the field for the start of the third
quarter of Thursday night’s preseason game at Carolina.
“We’ll probably play our starting team a little bit more,” Saban
said following Tuesday’s practice. “At least a half, maybe a
series in the second half. Not just the starting team, but more the
rotation of how we would play a game. I think you’ve got to pick one of these
[exhibition games] and say, ‘Everybody’s got to know the game isn’t over at
halftime.’ “ Starting cornerback Travis Daniels (ankle) and backup defensive
backs Michael Lehan (knee) and Norman LeJeune (undisclosed) also didn’t play in last Saturday’s
13-10 victory over Tampa Bay.Cornerback Eddie
Jackson, who missed the Bucs game because of a strained abdominal muscle,
practiced on a limited basis Tuesday and could play against the Panthers. Other
players who practiced on a limited basis Tuesday were wide receiver Kelly
Campbell (quadriceps) and tight ends Justin Peelle
(ankle) and Jason Rader (undisclosed). Guards Seth McKinney (neck) and Joe
Toledo (knee) didn’t practice and won’t play against Carolina.

The last time Daunte Culpepper
faced the Carolina Panthers he was hauled off the field with three torn knee
ligaments and his playing career in doubt. Thursday, Culpepper returns to Bank
of America Stadium as he tries to continue a successful comeback with the Miami
Dolphins. Culpepper was traded from Minnesota
to Miami in March. He has completed
8 of 11 passes for 88 yards and no interceptions in two preseason games with
the Dolphins. And the knee he had surgically repaired 10 months ago has held up
so far.
But Carolina (2-0) will provide his
biggest test yet. The Panthers’ first-team defense has allowed only three
points in three quarters against Buffalo
and Jacksonville. Carolina’s
defense also has scored two touchdowns. Bet this game now through BetUs. Check out the lines now

 

Miami Herald

After coach Nick Saban talked about the “good” and “healthy”
competition on both lines, he was less pleased with the depth at cornerback and
backup running back. Sammy Morris and
Travis Minor who played
sparingly last season are vying to be Ronnie
Brown’s primary backup, but Saban said the
team could look elsewhere for that role.

The Red Sox are the poster child for what we tell you

games got there because they struggled winning must-win games to begin with.

Boston is 4-13

is on a 5-0 run. They are 12-5 their last 17.

includes 9.88 in his last three with a 2.268 WHIP.

Cardinals-Bears

Daily Herald

Quarterback Rex
Grossman and the Bears’ offense, both struggling through the first two
preseason games, will get three quarters to work out the kinks Friday night
against the Arizona Cardinals at Soldier
Field. Grossman isn’t
expecting a repeat of the first two mediocre performances. Grossman has
completed 10 of 25 passes for 130 yards, no touchdowns and 1 interception,
while nine-year veteran Brian Griese is 8 of 9 for 150 yards with 3 touchdowns
and no interceptions, playing with and against second-stringers.

Four starters,
including running back Cedric Benson (shoulder), safety Mike Brown (Achilles),
fullback Bryan Johnson (hamstring) and cornerback Nate
Vasher (back), already have been declared out of
Friday’s game. A fifth
starter, defensive tackle Ian Scott (knee), is doubtful. Defensive tackles Tank
Johnson (quad), Michael Haynes (back) and rookie Dusty Dvoracek
(foot) are questionable, as is wide receiver Airese
Currie (knee). Guard Ruben
Brown (general soreness) and running back Thomas Jones (hamstring) are
probable. Bet this game now through BetUs. Check out the lines now

 

Suburban Chicago News

Bears coach Lovie Smith said he’s
hopeful RB Jones will play Friday night at Soldier
Field against the Arizona Cardinals while Cedric Benson will have to wait at
least another week. A couple good runs by anyone would only benefit the Bears’
offense right now. They’ve gained only 127 total rushing yards on 43 carries,
for a 3-yard average, without a run longer than 15 yards.

Lions-Raiders

San Francisco Chronicle

Quarterback Aaron Brooks had his best game of the
preseason, leading the Raiders’ starting offense to a 10-0 halftime lead in
Sunday’s win over the 49ers, and backup Andrew Walter turned in a pretty nifty
performance himself. Walter finished the game with eight completions in 10
attempts for 99 yards, leading two second-half scoring drives that put away the
Raiders’ 23-7 victory. Brooks appeared to secure his grip on the role as No. 1
quarterback in what is becoming a two-man show. All in all, it was an
impressive showing on both sides of the ball, but a particular step forward for
an offense that has had its share of misfires. “Winning is a part of what we do
… it creates good habits,” coach Art Shell said. “Even
though we won three games … there are a lot of mistakes we have to take care
of.” The improvement on offense was seen all the way down the depth chart with
the second- and third-string players holding their own.

Shell acknowledged that the performances in Sunday night’s
game could force some difficult decisions when it comes time to begin trimming
the roster to get to the 53-man regular-season limit. Strong safety Michael
Huff, the team’s No. 1 draft pick this year who turned his left ankle on the
infield dirt in Sunday night’s game, probably will miss Friday night’s
exhibition against the Lions at the Coliseum. Bet now through the Greek, home of the 21

Northwestern-Miami Oh

Press Notes

Miami University
head football coach Shane Montgomery announced today that junior Mike Kokal has been named the RedHawks’
starting quarterback for the upcoming 2006 season. Kokal,
Miami’s top back-up over the past
two seasons, had been one of three Miami
quarterbacks vying for the position since last spring. Since 2001, Miami’s
passing offense has ranked fourth nationally in passing yards per game (291.0)
behind only Texas Tech, Hawai’i
and Arizona State.
The RedHawks have ranked among the nation’s Top 30 in
total offense, passing offense and scoring offense in each of the past three
years.  Joining Kokal
on the offensive side of the ball are five returning starters, including
all-MAC senior wide receiver Ryne Robinson (Toledo,
OH/Central Catholic) and all-MAC junior
running back Brandon Murphy. Bet

Utah-UCLA

Associated Press

As expected, UCLA coach Karl Dorrell
announced Monday that Ben Olson has beaten out Patrick Cowan and will start at
quarterback for the Bruins on Sept. 2 when they open the season against Utah
at the Rose Bowl. Olson played briefly in relief of starter Drew Olson last
season, completing 2-of-4 passes for 11 yards. The 23-year-old Olson enrolled
at UCLA last winter after transferring from BYU. He
had been on a church mission for the previous two years after redshirting as a freshman in 2002. Olson, a 6-foot-5,
225-pound sophomore, was one of the country’s top recruits before deciding to
attend BYU. The left-hander passed for 2.989 yards
and 32 touchdowns as a senior at Thousand Oaks High in 2001.  Bet now through the Greek, home of the 21

Washington State-Auburn

Associated Press

Indeed, Auburn
has lost three of its last four openers, beating only Louisiana-Monroe en route
to a 13-0 season in ‘04. (The Tigers also lost a close game at USC in 2002). It’s
a remarkable statistic for a team that has managed to win 35 games during that
four-year span. A similarly punchless performance
against Washington State
would spoil all the enthusiasm and expectations surrounding this team. Indeed, Auburn

against Washington State
would spoil all the enthusiasm and expectations surrounding this team. Both
were far better the rest of the season, leading the SEC’s best offense. Irons
only started nine games but wound up rushing for 1,293 yards and closing the
regular season with six consecutive 100-yard games. Cox posted the fourth-best
single-season passing total in school history (2,324 yards) and was the league’s
No. 2-rated passer in his first season as starter, guiding a 9-3 team. A
revamped defense will have to come through for Auburn
to stake that claim. With linebackers Tray Blackmon and Kevin Sears suspended
for an unspecified number of games – probably including the date with LSU – converted safeties Will Herring and Steve Gandy won’t
have much grace period to master their new positions. Bet now through the Greek, home of the 21 percent

Akron-Penn State

CSTV

The biggest change for Penn State in ‘06 unquestionably is
at quarterback, where junior Anthony Morelli faces
the task of trying to replace Big Ten Offensive MVP Michael Robinson, who put
together a tremendous season in leading Penn State back. “Michael Robinson was
as good of a college football player and had as much of an impact on our
football team as any player I’ve ever coached in all the years I’ve been
around,” Paterno said. While Robinson will be missed,
there is a great deal of optimism surrounding the new junior quarterback, who
was Robinson’s backup last season, completing 13-of-20 passes for 155 yards and
a touchdown in occasional action. With the new quarterback though, you can
expect some things to change due to the different style of play by Morelli. “Last year, Robinson could run the option or do
something with his athletic ability to get us out of a jam,” Paterno said. “We don’t have that anymore. We have a
different type of back. We have a true quarterback that’s going to have to be
able to read coverages and him
and the offense have to get comfortable with each other and we’ll see what
happens.” “Morelli is more of a pocket passer so we’re
going to have to give him a little more time and we’ll have to adjust to that,”
Brown said. “We can’t just assume that if we mess up here, that Mike is just
going to run off with the ball because he’s not back there. Morelli
is back there. So, we’ll just have to give him more time and allow him to learn
the game.” Another question mark on Penn
State will be its offensive line,
who must replace four starters from last season. Brown returns as the only
starter and will be looked upon to lead the unit. Bet now through the Greek, home of the 21

Hawaii-Alabama

UWire

And last season, despite a 5-7 record, the Warriors showed
us a young offense loaded with talent. Colt Brennan emerged as the clear
starter and went on to lead the NCAA in passing yards, something Jones feels
will happen again this season. Freshman wide-receivers Davone
Bess and Ryan Grice-Mullen each posted 1,000-yard seasons and became impact
players. Once Nate Ilaoa
snapped into shape, he was a bruising running back that complimented Hawaii’s
aggressive passing game. Bet

Virginia-Pittsburgh

Post Gazette

The Panthers had the Big East Conference’s leading
receiver (yards per game) eight of the past nine
seasons and became the first school to produce two Biletnikoff
winners (Antonio Bryant and Larry Fitzgerald). This year’s group, however, has
not progressed as expected and, if things don’t improve in a hurry, Pitt could
easily be referred to as “Wide Receiver, Who?” The Panthers are set to finish
camp tomorrow and likely will do so with a depth chart at wide receiver that is
unsettled. And unlike other positions, such as the defensive line, where the
depth chart is cloudy because so many players have performed well, the receiver
position is unsettled because of inconsistency. Hill pointed out that the
receivers’ failure to progress as fast as he would like hasn’t
been completely about a lack of ability. There have been injuries—McGee (calf)
and Turner (ankle) have missed some time—and off-field issues—Porter left the
team for a day and senior Joe DelSardo has been
suspended for two weeks—that have hindered their progress as well. The group
also is extremely inexperienced—Kinder and DelSardo
are the only two with more than five receptions in a game. But the explanations
for the state of the receiving corps don’t erase the fact that there is a game
to be played in 11 days and the Panthers have only two receivers ready to play.
