    Stringfellow headed to Nebraska

    [​IMG]

    Former Washington receiver Damore'ea Stringfellow says he is transferring to Nebraska.

    Stringfellow said he signed paperwork on Saturday to complete the transfer.

    "I needed a new start, fresh start, and I feel like Nebraska was the best place to do so," Stringfellow told the Omaha World-Herald. "It's a great environment and a great school."

    Rated No. 51 in the ESPN 300 for the Class of 2013, Stringfellow attended Rancho Verde High School in Moreno Valley, California, which also produced former Huskers wideout Quincy Enunwa and former linebacker Eric Martin.

    Michigan lands RB Ty Isaac

    [​IMG]

    Running back Ty Isaac is transferring from Southern California to Michigan.

    Wolverines coach Brady Hoke says it was important for Isaac to move back to the Midwest to be closer to his mother and his family. Isaac is from Shorewood, Illinois. It is unclear if he will sit out this season to comply with NCAA transfer rules or seek a hardship waiver to be eligible immediately.

    Isaac appeared in all 14 games for the Trojans in the 2013 season, rushing for 236 yards on 40 carries with two touchdowns. He finished his high school career at Joliet Catholic Academy in Illinois with a school-record 5,305 yards rushing.

    LB Michael Rose out for season

    Nebraska's defense took another major hit with coach Bo Pelini's announcement Saturday that middle linebacker Michael Rose would undergo knee surgery next week and miss the season.

    Rose, who was hurt in a non-contact drill Friday, is the third key member of the defense in three days to be ruled out for the season.

    On Thursday the Huskers learned they would be without nickel back Charles Jackson because of a knee injury, and on Friday the athletic department announced safety LeRoy Alexander would be suspended for the season.

    LeRoy Alexander banned for season

    Nebraska defensive back LeRoy Alexander has been suspended for the 2014 football season.

    The Nebraska Athletic Department made the announcement Friday and did not give a reason for the suspension. Alexander will remain on scholarship and will be allowed to practice with the team.

    Alexander was expected to contend for significant playing time at safety. The sophomore played in all 13 games last season at safety and on special teams. He made 27 of his 34 tackles in the last six games.

    Urban Meyer praises J.T. Barrett

    Ohio State coach Urban Meyer isn't ruling out that it may eventually take two quarterbacks to fill one spot.

    But as the Buckeyes start digging into the game plan for their opener now that Braxton Miller officially will miss the coming season, they are planning on redshirt freshman J.T. Barrett stepping into the considerable shoes of the two-time defending Big Ten Offensive Player of the Year at the start.

    Tanner McEvoy to start at QB

    The No. 14 Wisconsin Badgers will start junior Tanner McEvoy at quarterback for next week's season opener against No. 13 LSU, according to a report in the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel.

    Badgers coach Gary Andersen said Monday that he wouldn't announce a starting quarterback before the game, but sources told the Journal Sentinel that McEvoy will get the nod over Joel Stave, who started 19 games the past two seasons.

    "We may know who the starter is, but we're not going to say who the starter is until we jog out on the field for the LSU game," Andersen said Monday.

    Braxton Miller 'positive' after surgery

    Ohio State quarterback and newly elected team captain Braxton Miller had successful surgery to repair his torn labrum Tuesday morning.

    Miller talked with coach Urban Meyer and verified that everything went according to plan during the operation, which was performed by noted surgeon Dr. James Andrews. The senior is expected to return home Wednesday morning.

    "Braxton and I talked this morning before he went in, then he had surgery, everything was good," Meyer said during the Big Ten teleconference. "They just sent me a picture of him and the doctor and his dad, and so it's very positive. All reports are there were no surprises and everything went well."

    Connor Cook throws 3 TDs despite injury scare in Michigan State rout

    Connor Cook threw a long touchdown pass for Michigan State's first points of the season -- and coach Mark Dantonio's immediate reaction was concern.

    That's because Cook needed to be helped off the field after a late hit to his left leg.

    "That looked pretty ugly out there, but he rebounded after that and he went right back in the football game," Dantonio said. "I'm pretty sure he's fine, based on how he played."

    Cook shook off that early scare to finish with three touchdown passes, and No. 8 Michigan State rolled to an easy 45-7 victory over Jacksonville State on Friday night.

    J.T. Barrett helps Buckeyes extend regular-season streak to 25

    There might come a time when Ohio State coach Urban Meyer expands his offensive playbook to include various long passes, reverses and bootlegs.

    Until his young quarterback gains confidence and his line grows up, the No. 5 Buckeyes will likely count on the kind of conservative game plan that proved good enough to beat Navy 34-17 Saturday.

    No. 22 Nebraska rolls over Florida Atlantic 55-7

    Ameer Abdullah and Tommy Armstrong Jr. had career games and Nebraska had its most productive offensive day in almost a quarter century.

    Maybe there is something to this "Red Storm" nickname that the Cornhuskers' offensive players came up with. Florida Atlantic was in the path Saturday, and the Huskers rolled to a 55-7 victory.

    Warren Herring, Derek Watt out

    The Wisconsin Badgers have lost starting nose tackle Warren Herring and starting fullback Derek Watt following surgeries.

    Herring is out four to six weeks after right knee surgery, and Watt will miss about two months after surgery on his right foot.

    Both Herring and Watt sustained their injuries during last Saturday's loss to LSU.

    Tanner McEvoy, No. 18 Wisconsin pull away from Western Illinois

    With its running game stuffed, Wisconsin needed another way to get the offense rolling.

    Quarterback Tanner McEvoy took over using his arms and legs.

    McEvoy overcame a slow start to throw for three touchdowns and run for another, and the 18th-ranked Badgers pulled away from second-tier Western Illinois in the second half to win its home opener 37-3 Saturday.
