    You're not the only one. Devon Blackmon is also pretty excited about Devon Blackmon. I hope he shows enough game to back up his hype.

    you and Kelly. Pretty much their only real burner at WR last year was Huff and he was a backup. All 4 of the newly signed WRs can fly + Huff & Lowe from last year. Not sure if they both stay at TE, but Colt is fast and French is even faster. Brandon Williams missed much of last year with a broken hand, but he can really move for a TE too.

    Oregon played last year with speed in their tempo and coming out of the backfield, but next year they add it to their receiving core as well... Kelly gets to spread teams out that much more. Their lines are getting bigger on both sides of the ball, their QB has a year of experience under his belt, their Heisman finalist RB is back with a slew of highly touted guys behind him... they might be okay next season ;)

    I want to temper my excitement. Look at Alabama... they brought back their Heisman winner and a lot of the team that won the natty.....

    It takes a bit of luck to go undefeated- no matter who you are. Well, unless you play in a sissy conference like BSU or TCU.
