After sitting out Tuesday\u2019s practice, junior quarterback Matt Ryan<\/span><\/strong>
\ndonned the pads Wednesday and went to work for the first time since injuring
\nhis left ankle in last Thursday night\u2019s season-opening 31-24 victory at Central
\nMichigan. As was the case last season, when the Eagles went to Clemson looking
\nfor their first ACC victory with a backup in place of injured starting
\nquarterback Quinton
\nPorter<\/span><\/strong> (ankle), Ryan\u2019s status remained up in the air after
\ncoach Tom O\u2019Brien<\/span>
\n<\/strong>indicated during a teleconference yesterday it would be \u201ca game-time decision.\u201d
\nIf Ryan is unable to play, BC will turn to Chris Crane<\/span><\/strong>,<\/b> a 6-foot-4-inch, 232-pound sophomore
\nfrom Mechanicsburg<\/st1:City>, Pa.<\/st1:State><\/st1:place>

It\u2019s been three years since A.J<\/span><\/span>. Bryant<\/span> felt like himself. Georgia\u2019s junior wide receiver will
\nget a chance to feel that way again Saturday night against South
\nCarolina<\/st1:place><\/st1:State>. Bryant, a junior, and Mario Raley<\/span><\/span>
\nhave been moved into the Bulldogs\u2019 starting lineup in place of Mohamed Massaquoi<\/span><\/span>
\nand Kenneth Harris<\/span>. Massaquoi<\/span> and Harris slipped slightly in their catching,
\nroute-running, assignments and effort against Western Kentucky<\/st1:place>,
\nwide receivers coach John Eason<\/span>
\nsaid, enough so that he thought they needed a little motivation. Bet now through the Greek, <\/span>home of the 21 percent sign up bonus<\/span><\/a><\/span><\/u> \u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Maryland<\/st1:place><\/st1:State> is
\nvery thin at wide receiver. They are young and have looked horrible in
\npractice. Check out the approved sportsbooks at www.linetrackers.com<\/a> <\/p>\n
Central Florida-Florida<\/h2>\n

Former Coral Gables Miami standout Steven Harris<\/span> should play against Central Florida<\/st1:place>
\non Saturday, coach Urban Meyer<\/span>
\nsaid. Meyer also expects to play defensive tackle Marcus Thomas<\/span>, who was suspended for the season opener.\u201dThey\u2019ll<\/span> play unless [something else happens],\u201d
\nMeyer said. \u201cLet\u2019s see how their behavior is.\u201d Harris, who started at defensive
\ntackle all of last season, had missed most of spring camp because of poor
\ngrades and because of fathering three children. Tailback DeShawn<\/span><\/span> Wynn<\/span> (neck) has been upgraded from questionable to probable. The
\nmembers of Florida\u2019s 2005-06 men\u2019s basketball team will receive their

Eastern Michigan-Michigan State<\/h2>\n
Detroit<\/st1:place><\/st1:City> News<\/o:p><\/h3>\n
The Spartans\u2019 running game was sporadic in last week\u2019s
\nopener against Idaho<\/st1:place><\/st1:State>. Ringer
\ngained 70 yards on 16 carries and Caulcrick<\/span> 50 yards
\non 12 carries. But they are expected to provide an effective one-two punch,
\nassuming a revamped offensive line opens enough holes for them. MSU<\/span> plays host to Eastern Michigan<\/st1:place>
\non Saturday. After an overall lackluster performance against Idaho<\/st1:place><\/st1:State>,
\nthe Spartans\u2019 offensive line needs to assert itself more against a so-called
\ninferior opponent. The line has three new starters with sophomore Roland Martin
\nat right guard, sophomore Jesse Miller at right tackle and junior Pete Clifford
\nat left guard. The two returning starters have switched positions\u2014senior Kyle
\nCook from left guard to center and Mike Gyetvai<\/span> from
\nright tackle to left tackle. This unit is going to be a work in progress
\nbecause of these changes. The sooner it develops under assistant Jeff Stoutland<\/span>, the faster the Spartans can take full advantage
\nof their weapons at the skill positions. Michigan<\/st1:PlaceName>
\nState\u2019s biggest concern defensively is containing the running ability of Eastern
\nMichigan<\/st1:place> quarterback Tyler Jones, a 6-foot-2, 225-pound sophomore
\nfrom Belleville<\/st1:place><\/st1:City>. Jones ran for 164
\nyards on 22 carries in an opening loss at Ball<\/st1:PlaceName>
\nState<\/st1:PlaceType><\/st1:place>. He lines up in the shotgun
\nmost of the time in an offense that resembles Northwestern\u2019s.\u00a0 <\/span>Bet now through the Greek, <\/span>home of the 21 percent sign up bonus<\/span><\/a><\/span><\/u> \u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Denver<\/st1:place><\/st1:City> Post<\/o:p><\/h3>\n
Colorado<\/st1:PlaceName> State<\/st1:PlaceType><\/st1:place>
\ncoaches insisted Wednesday that felony theft and forgery charges against three
\nteam members did not adversely affect practice or preparations for Saturday\u2019s
\nRocky Mountain Showdown with Colorado<\/st1:place><\/st1:State>.
\n<\/o:p><\/p>\n
For one of the few times during CSU coach Sonny Lubick\u2019s<\/span> 14-year career, there were no mid-week interviews
\npermitted with players. \u201cYou look in their eyes and they are ready to play,\u201d Lubick<\/span> said. Backup cornerback Robert Herbert and redshirt
\nfreshmen cornerback Micah Crews and defensive lineman Brian Abata<\/span>
\nwere suspended indefinitely. Herbert, who was demoted as a starter midway
\nthrough preseason camp, also lost his kickoff-return duties after fumbling the
\nopening third-quarter kickoff last Saturday. Lubick<\/span>
\nsaid he did not know if an ongoing investigation had affected Herbert\u2019s play. \u00a0<\/span>Check out the approved sportsbooks at www.linetrackers.com<\/a> \u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n
Washington-Oklahoma<\/h2>\n
News Tribune<\/o:p><\/h3>\n
Eliminate two tight ends and the offense is bound to
\nsuffer. How much is the question. The University of Washington football team
\nfaces a tight end shortage for Saturday\u2019s game at 10^{th<\/sup>-ranked
\nOklahoma because two of team\u2019s top three tight ends \u2013 Michael Gottlieb has a
\nbroken hand and Rob Evans a broken foot \u2013 won\u2019t play. UW coach Tyrone
\nWillingham said the biggest impact will be on the running game. Oklahoma<\/st1:place><\/st1:State>\u2019s
\noffense may have some new formations and a few more plays than it showed in its
\nopening game against Alabama-Birmingham. But whatever the Sooners throw at the
\nHuskies, it probably won\u2019t be as radical as what San
\nJose<\/st1:PlaceName> State<\/st1:PlaceType><\/st1:place> did
\nlast week in UW\u2019s season opener. The Spartans came out in a spread offense,
\nsomething they had not shown last season. The new offense made for some
\nscrambling in the early going, UW defensive coordinator Kent Baer said. The
\nSooners are expected to feature the run with talented tailback Adrian Peterson
\nfor at least two reasons. One, Peterson is good. Two, running the ball takes
\nthe pressure off quarterback-turned-receiver-turned-quarterback Paul Thompson.
\nDefensive lineman Greyson<\/span> Gunheim<\/span>
\nsaid knowing the opponent\u2019s tendencies, even one as formidable as the Sooners,
\nmakes stopping them a little easier.\u00a0 <\/span>Bet now through the Greek, <\/span>home of the 21 percent sign up bonus<\/span><\/a><\/span><\/u> \u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n}
