This was retweeted by Rothstein via Twitter (Brian Hamilton article from The Trib):

"You have to give it to him -- he's an athletic guy, he's hard to tackle, but every guy can be beat," Irish defensive end Ethan Johnson said of Robinson. "One guy is not going to rule the game.

"I read my keys and if he's really close to me, I'm going to tackle him. I'm not going to go in there afraid of the guy. If he makes a move, and I stay in balance, I'm going to make the tackle. If I misstep, I misstep. I'm not going to go in there scared like, 'Oh, maybe he jukes me.' Can't play like that. I'm going to go in there and make every play I can."

He is definitely not trashing Denard but those words are something that could play into some extra motivation.

Anticipating my most favoritist ufr of all time.

ufr?

Monday night I authored a post entitled "Boise belongs in the elite" where I gave up my previous resistance to the idea of Boise belonging in the top ten and BCS, and said that they definitely belong in the equation despite the truly weak conference and schedule they play. But this is where that stops. In the latest AP poll, Boise got seven votes as the best team in the country. Seven actual journalists believe that Boise is the best football team in the country. That they can beat Bama, or Florida, or any team in the country. Seven. I'm hoping that I don't have to justify my contention that this is truly ludicrous, but I'll bet someone reading this might say "why not?" Then I'll weep. http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/20100908/ap_on_sp_co_ap_po/fbc_t25_college_fb...
