<li><em>&#8220;The cool thing is I would&#8217;ve beat the crap out of my body and now I don&#8217;t have to,&#8221; <a href="http://www.ledger-enquirer.com/2013/04/29/2483573/pollack-checks-in-on-jarvis-clemson.html" target="_blank">Pollack said</a>. &#8220;I couldn&#8217;t do what (David) Greene has done and be an insurance guy. I have to have football in me and it&#8217;s in my blood. If I weren&#8217;t doing this I&#8217;d be coaching.&#8221;</em></li>
<li><a href="http://buckeyextra.dispatch.com/content/stories/2013/04/29/playoff-committee-wont-be-for-the-meek.html" target="_blank">Here&#8217;s a suggestion</a> to let current players serve on the selection committee.  Would they be paid for that?</li>
<li><a href="http://www.ledger-enquirer.com/2013/04/29/2483871/greene-happy-for-murray-only-wishes.html" target="_blank">David Greene</a> likes what he sees out of Georgia&#8217;s offense.</li>
<li>How bad was Auburn&#8217;s offensive line last season?  <a href="http://www.cfbtn.com/2013/04/statistical-review-auburn-91.html?utm_source=feedburner&amp;utm_medium=feed&amp;utm_campaign=Feed%3A+CollegeFootballByTheNumbers+%28College+Football+by+the+Numbers%29&amp;utm_content=Google+Reader#.UX-ppUpc3WV" target="_blank">This bad</a>:  <em>&#8220;Ball carriers got back to the line of scrimmage less than 80% of the time&#8230;&#8221;</em></li>
<li>Fighting the NCAA &#8211; <a href="http://www.usatoday.com/story/sports/ncaaf/2013/04/25/ncaa-lawsuits-jerry-tarkanian-todd-mcnair/2114469/" target="_blank">it&#8217;s not just for Jerry Tarkanian anymore</a>.</li>
<li>Athlon ranks the SEC running backs, and Georgia finds itself with <a href="http://www.athlonsports.com/college-football/ranking-secs-running-backs-2013" target="_blank">#1 and #4 on the list</a>.</li>
<li>Before you ask yourself what kids like Bray and Geathers were thinking by leaving school early for the NFL draft, consider that <a href="http://www.lostlettermen.com/undrafted-nfl-early-entries-an-epidemic/" target="_blank">they could have taken steps to keep the option of returning to college <em>after</em> the draft</a>, but chose not to do so.</li>
<li>Tech fans, the <em>AJ-C</em> has your consolation for the lousy draft <a href="http://www.ajc.com/weblogs/georgia-tech/2013/apr/29/tech-has-company-draft-shutout/" target="_blank">right here</a>.</li>
<li><a href="http://espn.go.com/college-football/story/_/id/9214725/ohio-state-buckeyes-take-top-spot-latest-2013-top-25" target="_blank">Mark Schlabach&#8217;s preseason top 25 list</a> (I know, I know) is ordered by which teams have the easiest path to an undefeated season, which is how you get Ohio State at number one and Louisville fourth.</li>
<li>Or if you&#8217;d prefer to look at another man&#8217;s win projections for next season&#8217;s top 25, <a href="http://www.footballstudyhall.com/2013/4/26/4267816/huskermaths-ridiculously-early-season-forecast" target="_blank">here you go</a>.</li>
