Saturday's Are Better Than Sunday's: Halftime Superlatives
isportsweb

Pretty solid week six for me, going 3-1 with my upset pick of the Crimson Tide not quite panning out. I'm sorry Sir Nick Saban, it will never happen again. Since we have made it to the midway point in this college football season, I'm going to mix it up a tad bit and hand out the first annual Halftime Superlatives to the most deserving players and coaches throughout the country. I'll also throw in my predictions for the top games coming up in week seven, without the much-loved analysis that 99.9% of the times proves to be right. Sit back, relax and enjoy!


Last Week: 3-1 Overall: 5-4

5. #20 West Virginia vs. Texas Tech

Final Prediction: West Virginia 42, Texas Tech 45

4. North Carolina vs. #16 Miami

Final Prediction: UNC 31, Miami 30

3. #12 Ole Miss vs. #22 Arkansas

Final Prediction: Ole Miss 24, Arkansas 27

2. #1 Alabama vs. #9 Tennessee

Final Prediction: Alabama 24, Tennessee 13

1. #2 Ohio State vs. #8 Wisconsin

Final Prediction: Ohio State 28, Wisconsin 14


Most likely to beat Usain Bolt in a race...

Keke Coutee (Texas Tech)

I've watched a few Texas Tech games this year, and man, can Coutee fly. Always just one screen away from taking it to the house. It's just not fair.


Most likely to be Tom Brady's new best friend...

Christian McCaffrey (Stanford)

God couldn't have made a better fit for the Patriot's offense when he made Christian McCaffrey. Wes Walker, Danny Woodhead, James White... Keep the comparisons coming. Tom Brady would love McCaffrey's versatility in the Patriot's backfield.


Most likely to succeed...

Josh Dobbs (Tennessee)

Check out his plan of study and that should tell you why.


Most likely to be working at Food Lion next year...

Paul Johnson (Georgia Tech)

How long is Georgia Tech going to keep this guy? He is in the middle of a recruiting hotbed and still runs the triple option... No wonder he can't get those high caliber recruits.


Most likely asked to show a birth certificate in youth football...

Leonard Fournette (LSU)

Haha just look at him. He just turned 21...


Most likely the son of Megamind...

Brad Kaaya (Miami)

Am I wrong?


Name most likely used in the next Key & Peele skit...

Raekwon McMillan (Ohio State)

I can hear them saying it now.


Most likely to be the next Bachelor...

Kliff Kingsbury (Texas Tech)

No homo, but the dude is good looking.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
