NCAA: Big 12 Preview with SuiteSports.com

Image
By Joe Parello   @HerewegoJoe Offense is king in America's heartland, and the Big 12 features some of America's most explosive attacks. Seven of the conference's 10 teams (Baylor, Kansas State, Oklahoma State, Oklahoma, Texas, Texas Tech and West Virginia) ranked in the top-25 nationally for scoring offense, but does anybody play enough defense to win a national championship? That will certainly be the big question for conference contenders this season, and with quarterback questions at Oklahoma, WVU and Kansas State, several offenses could take steps back as well. The conference may not have a bona-fide national favorite, but only Kansas looks like a lost cause, with nine teams all chasing a bowl game. Click Here For The Full Story

There is no QB controversy in DC

The Washington Redskins selected with the 2nd pick in the 2012 NFL Draft the new face of the franchise Robert Griffin III. Then in the 4th round selected with the 102nd pick in the draft QB Kirk Cousins. This immediately drew the backlash of NFL analysts and scouts alike. Why would you want to bring in another rookie QB? Why start a QB controversy? There is no controversy. Period. If Robert Griffin III can not outplay Kirk Cousins then he deserves not to be the starter. The QB position in the NFL is the most important position in sports. Nobody should blame Mike Shanahan for drafting Cousins to be an understudy for his offense. The Redskins have tried the veteran route for years with no success. Now they will the luxury of grooming a top QB prospect in their own offensive scheme. Just look at what teams like Green Bay and New England have done with Aaron Rodgers, Matt Flynn, Matt Cassel, and Ryan Mallett. This is good business for any franchise. - Rodney Fisher, RF Sports Radio

Robert Griffin III declares for the NFL draft; Should he be the #1 pick? Yes

The Colts have sole possession of the #1 pick in the upcoming draft. They face a big dilemma at the QB position as well all know. Most experts seem to contend that Andrew Luck is the #1 pick. Reports started to surface last week that the Colts have already made the decision to draft Luck. Many point to the firing of Bill Polian, longtime architect of the Manning teams, and hiring of ex-Eagles Director of Personnel Ryan Grigson to clear the path to end the Peyton era. Must I remind NFL fans that draft rumors are a bigger smoke screen than any magic trick in Vegas. Teams use the media to sway teams into panic trades to move up the draft board. No matter who gets the pick, why is Andrew Luck a lock for #1? Sure he is great passer with excellent mechanics and a pro arm, but Griffin is the better pure athlete. After all, Griffin was awarded the best player in college football this season with the Heisman trophy. That means the best of any position. Of all the QBs taken in the last t...
