Wild game tonight. I thought that Ball State got jobbed on a couple calls that had a HUGE impact on the game. Both calls were reviewed and upheld. Regardless, Buffalo came to win and Ball State just didn't seem to be able to match their intensity.
Buffalo has a nice QB prospect in Drew Willy. He's not NFL ready yet, but I see him as a real developmental guy. Poised and throws the ball well.
Two guys to watch for next year are junior RB James Starks (6020 210). He looks a bit tall and lanky, but he's got quick feet, changes direction well, sees the holes and has enough burst to get through them. Also watch junior WR Naaman Roosevelt. He just seems to want the ball more than the DB and is a "crafty" receiver who's going to get the ball.

0\Congrats to the Bulls on the MAC Title. Look where that program has come in the past three years under Turner Gill. Turner is probably going to get a shot at a BSC caliber program (He's interviewed at Syracuse, even thought Skip Hotz is there new coach, and Auburn is interested in interviewing him).
I agree in your assessments of the Bulls players you highlighted, but did you know that both Starks and Roosevelt where high school quarterbacks?
Also you mentioned that Willy as a development prospect and I'm not going to argue with you, cause I agree, but did you hear on the broadcast that Todd McShay said that right now Willy is a better pro prospect than Chase Daniel? And after watching Daniel play in the second half of this year I agree.
