Snap judgments on Saturday's best.
Teachers' Pet: Toby Gerhart. (It's always the quiet ones.) The unfolding parity of the Pac-10 has been great television this year, and with 223 yards and three touchdowns against Oregon, Stanford's thundering senior back put the Cardinal squarely in the ...

Alabama has demonstrated some very fine fourth quarter chops on its way to 9-0, but as usual, some 'Bama partisans may be taking the trend a little too far :
A resourceful lot all the way around, those Tiders. But, you know, when it comes to school spirit in the clutch, gotta support the team ...

Clemson 40, Florida State 24. We've had a long time to watch C.J. Spiller now, and the book on his career to date is more or less identical to the book on his team: Enormously talented, hyped, capable of isolated dominance but also prone to inconsistency and disappearing over surprisingly ...

Nothing in LSU's first six games suggests the Tigers have any hope of upsetting a top-three rival on the road. This was a team that struggled mightily against Washington in the opener and required a dramatic goal line stand to win at Mississippi State -- without defensive and special teams ...
