    Minnesota Vikings – Adrian Peterson Proves He is the MVP

    Great running back seasons are rare, as the NFL turns more and more into a quarterback league. Adrian Peterson, with the playoffs on the line, turned out one of the finest performances of his career, pulling the Minnesota Vikings on his powerful legs into the postseason, falling just short of the all-time record.

    2012 NFL Season – Packers vs Vikings Predictions

    It’s been quite a while, over three years, since the Minnesota Vikings last managed to beat the Green Bay Packers. On the last game of the 2012 NFL regular season, they’re probably going to have to do it, with Adrian Peterson breaking a rushing record or not, in order to make the postseason.

    2012 NFL Season – Cowboys vs Redskins Predictions

    It couldn’t get any simpler than that on the last day of the regular season – Win, and you clinch the NFC East title and go to the playoffs. Lose, and it’s over. The Dallas Cowboys already lost this season to the Washington Redskins. They can’t afford to do that again.

  • Syracuse Orange – Prince-Tyson Gulley Loves Running in the Snow

    Syracuse Orange – Prince-Tyson Gulley Loves Running in the Snow

    Next season they’ll be in the ACC, but Syracuse had a proper send off to their Big East days by dominating and winning in the New Era Pinstripe bowl, that wouldn’t allow two pass happy teams to put the ball in the air, so they simply had to work on the ground. Prince-Tyson Gulley did the rest of the work for the Orange from there.

  • Michigan State Spartans – Le’Veon Bell Lays Winning Groundwork

    Michigan State Spartans – Le’Veon Bell Lays Winning Groundwork

    The easy to spot hero of the game was Dan Conroy with a 47 yard field goal with one minute left in the fourth quarter, winning the game for Michigan State. The real hero? Le’Veon Bell, who carried a dysfunctional offense all season long in the Big Ten and once again in the Bowl Game, to finish the season on a high note, and just above .500.

  • Texas Longhorns – David Ash Erases Past Mistakes

    Texas Longhorns – David Ash Erases Past Mistakes

    A slow start and the memory of getting pulled out of a game in the regular season didn’t stop David Ash from following through on the claims that Texas have a quarterback again. Life was difficult in the first half, but Ash ended up with his hand on top, throwing two fourth quarter game winning touchdowns and end a weird season for the Longhorns on a very high note.

    Texas Tech Red Raiders – Seth Doege Eventually Comes Through

    Up until the end of October this felt like a special season for Texas Tech, eventually turning into a good one, nothing more. The ending was looking grim, but disappointing senior quarterback Seth Doege eventually got going, threw a game tying touchdown that eventually set up the buzzer beating bowl game winning field goal.

  • Virginia Tech Hokies – Frank Beamer Wins in His Own Special Way

    Virginia Tech Hokies – Frank Beamer Wins in His Own Special Way

    After so many seasons of double digit wins, ACC titles and BCS Bowls, Virginia Tech had to settle for the Citrus Bowl, with a plus .500 season on the line. It wasn’t pretty, especially for those who like seeing offense at least during some stages of a game, but that is what Frank Beamer teams were about. Special teams and defense that carry an mediocre (at best) offense to victory.

    Cincinnati Bearcats – Brendon Kay Brings Back the Smiles

    It wasn’t the easiest of months for Brendon Kay or anyone involved with the Cincinnati program. It wasn’t about winning or losing, but mostly about finding out their head coach for the past three seasons is moving on to bigger and better. Still, the Belk Bowl was the perfect chance to put everything behind them.
