    For all you draft gurus out there, which bowl games would you suggest watching for prospects for the Panthers' next draft?

    I'm usually not much into the bowl thing (unless one of my teams is playing), but I'd like to take more interest in it this year for draft talk in the spring.

    Just be mindful of the Texas players. Iowa is going to make them look alot better than they are...I hope Texas beats Iowa 199-3, fucking 6-6 and in a bowl game is bullshit.

    Keep checking http://www.gbnreport.com/. As the time draws closer they'll have a bowl-roundup that talks about the prospects in upcoming bowl games.

    Georgia (8-4) vs Virginia Tech (10-2)

    Georgia had been expected to be a serious contender for conference and national honors, but struggled through an uncharacteristic four-loss campaign. And nothing may have been more representative of Bulldogs’ year than DE Quentin Moses (#94, 6-5, 255) season. The disruptive Moses had entered the season rated as potentially the top defensive prospect overall for the 2007 draft, but saw his stock drop appreciably after a very quiet year. Indeed, Moses was outplayed by fellow DE Charles Johnson (#99, 6-2, 265), a junior who is also thinking of entering the 2007 draft. The Bulldogs, though, can get after people with an aggressive defense which also includes MLB Tony Taylor (#43, 6-0, 240), OLB Danny Wheeler (#42, 6-2, 245) and undersized safety Tra Battle (#25, 5-11, 170). On the other side of the ball, the Bulldogs have a solid running game featuring several good young backs led by junior Kregg Lumpkin (#6, 6-0, 215), while both TE Martrez Milner (#87, 6-4, 250) and RT Daniel Inman (#72, 6-7, 330) should get early second-day calls this coming April. The key for the Bulldogs though will be getting a consistent outing from true freshman QB Matthew Stafford (#7, 6-3, 225).

    For it’s part, Virginia Tech is coming off a 10-2 season which may have been one of the quietest ten-win seasons on record. And Tech isn’t likely to make a whole lot more noise during the first-round of the 2007 draft, although several Hokies should attract plenty of attention early on the first-day. DB Aaron Rouse (#36, 6-3, 225), for example, is one of the fiercest hitters in college football, while WR David Clowney (#87, 6-0, 175) is one of the fastest receivers in college football. The Hokies also have several decent second-tier prospects in FB Jesse Allen (#37, 6-0, 245), OT Brandon Frye (#74, 6-3, 305), DE Noland Burchette (#96, 6-2, 260). For the most part, though, the Hokies best prospects are underclassmen like juniors OLB Xavier Adibi (#11, 6-2, 224), MLB Vince Hall (#9, 6-0, 235), and DE Chris Ellis (#49, 6-5, 250) and sophomore RB Branden Ore (#28, 5-10, 205).

    Gaines Adams got off to an amazing start against Kentucky, until they started doubling him. Still, he looked quite impressive.


    Didn't watch any other games today.
