FULL STORY
Chris Turner QB, Maryland Terrapins 11/06/09, Time: 7:30 pm
News:
Despite a lack of productivity, Maryland QB Chris Turner is going to keep his starting job. While there have been calls for the staff to look to the future, coach Ralph Friedgen, who admits to having a struggle on his hands, said that right now Turner gives the team its best chance to win.
Analysis:
Turner gets no favors as he faces a pretty solid NC State defense. You wonder if the young man can rally and get out of this funk or if it will be more of the same Saturday? (sportsbuff.com)
Louisiana-Monroe QB Trey Revell should be in the lineup Friday night. His damaged thumb has healed enough that he can play. He could have played last week, but wasn't needed.
Analysis:
Expect Wells to get the start against North Texas and to have a pretty good go. (sportsbuff.com)
Player:
Darius Willis RB, Indiana Hoosiers 11/06/09, Time: 7:24 pm
Status:
Probable
News:
Indiana RB Darius Willis has improved enough with his ankle injury to be listed as probable for this week's game. Willis is expected to be ready to go and get the lion's share of the carries.
Analysis:
Willis has been dealing with the balky ankle almost from the outset of the season, so he's a guy that you can put a little stock in this late in the season. (sportsbuff.com)
