Monday Headlinin': Knowshon up, Buckeyes down
Dr. Saturday —
• Super Shon. Knowshon Moreno laughs at your petty conception of gravity: Like me, Mark Richt was baffled this run didn't make the national highlight shows. See the video here, and nod in agreement. • This we know: we don't like you. Voters remain divided on who's number one, dividing 108 of 131 first place votes in the AP and Coaches' polls between USC and Georgia, with the Trojans coming out on top of both for the second week in a row. They do, however, agree on one ...

That Thurr Is a Conspiracy Against Mah Dawgz!
The Sporting Blog —
... I chose not to post the video here, and apparently ESPN didn’t find it worthy of their highlight reel either. Naturally, this has the Dawgz faithful up in arms; including head coach Mark Richt questioning ESPN’s judgment, and AJC’s Chip Towers opening the floodgates by asking if the network is conspiring against them: ...
Mark Richt Says ESPN "Didn't Do Their Homework" On Knowshon Moreno Run [College Football]
Deadspin —
... over ESPN's perceived slight to their Heisman Trophy candidate. Not least because if Tim Tebow had made the same run ESPN would have announced the rebranding of ESPN U as Tim Tebow's Network. Richt said he was looking forward to seeing the play on SportsCenter, and was disappointed when it wasn't featured. Which is interesting because, presumably, Richt has plenty of game film. Anyway, the slight has festered and the Bulldogs are angry. (Insert multiple grown men barking here). And so is their coach. ...

Georgia U. vs ESPN
AwfulAnnouncing —
... Everyone in the world knows that ESPN is infatuated with Tim Tebow and Florida, and this little nugget from the Atlanta Journal-Constitution makes the "relationship" between the two seem even odder than we thought it was. If you missed the Georgia game last Friday, Knowshon Moreno had what was probably the play of the year by scaling over a Central Michigan defender. ...
ESPN Snubs Georgia
Saturday Sound Offs-The Blog for the College Football Junkie —
... So, according to an Atlanta Journal-Constitution article, Mark Richt felt like his guy got the shaft and said that ESPN didn't do their homework. I'd think so! The bigger story here is that Knowshon Moreno was stupid enough to jump over one of my Chippewa tacklers. He should know that there would be a hapless arm tackle that Moreno would shed by standing still, the CMU defense's acquiescence and all. Shame on you, you should know better than that, to put on an unnecessary show in that manner.

3:30pm - ABC/ESPN - NCAA Football - Arkansas at #8 Texas -OR- #16 Oregon at Purdue -OR- #17 Penn State at Syracuse -OR- Georgia Tech at Virginia Tech - You should hope you don't get Penn St.-Syracuse or the Tech's.
