Non-BCS RB Profiles
Athlon continues its release of the 2009 college fantasy football draft kit, with a look at running backs from the WAC, Mountain West and Independents.
2009 Duke Blue Devils Preview
David Cutcliffe believes Duke will be a bowl team in 2009. For that to happen, the Blue Devils will have to win seven games — because they have two games against FCS opponents. In only one season under Cutcliffe, there was a visible difference in preparation, execution and motivation. The uptick in all three areas should continue in his second season. Cutcliffe deserves credit for his optimism, but another four- or five-win season is more realistic.
