Coral Gables, FL - After ESPN announced an "Urban Meyer/Michael Jordan" type trial retirement for Lee Corso, a nationwide search was completed for a replacement that would bring the same level of "knowledge" but also the unconventional flair that coach Corso brought each week. When Gameday traveled to South Beach for the top 5 clash between LSU and Miami, a former Sportscenter tryout got his big shot. Gameday producer Steve Heedmen stated "we wanted someone humorous, unique, and whose head would be big enough to hold up the mascot heads."
The crew took a look at the openers for RUTS3 Season 3.
NR Tennessee v. Arizona
Tennessee look to replace HB Tauren Poole, who accounted for most of their offensive production last season. In his place is Fulmer/Kiffen recruit David Oku who has waited his turn in line and finally has a place at the table. Oku has promised to do #27 proud and run out of bounds as much as possible, leaving numerous yards on the field, and to fumble in crucial situations. "I've seen by doing that, you can really take the NFL by storm, and that has always been my goal." said Oku.
Oku and the Vols should take the Wildcats by storm. Neyland stadium is geared up for a return to serious SEC Contention, and Gameday predicts a 45-33 win for the Vols.
#12 Notre Dame v. Rutgers
New Irish coach zeejaydee begins his career at Notre Dame against the state school of New Jersey. Coach zeejaydee has promised to bring his "Zach attach" offense to South Bend this season, a promised a "fast return to the top 10." The Irish are expected to rely on RB Theo "Razor" Riddick to lead the offensive attack, and to punch holes in the Rutgers defense.
Rutgers hangs tough, but the Irish pull away at the end. Gameday predicts a 40-21 victory for Notre Dame.
#1 Alabama v. Boise State
Trent Richardson finally has the backfield all to himself. Richardson, who came to Alabama because "their hat had the most swagger." Now finds himself a leading Heisman candidate for the top rated Crimson Tide.
Standing is his way week one are the Boise State Broncos. While Herbstreet put Bama on "upset alert," the new host proclaimed "that's just dumb." A new "not-so-fast-my-friend?" Regardless, the Tide rolls.
#4 Ohio State v. Stanford
With "Boom" Herron gone, the Buckeyes look to Kenny Guiton to lead the way in the backfield, bolstered by back to back #1 recruiting classes and Running Back Jammal Berry. Coach UTVOL54 promises that the classes will pay off, and that he will shed the title "Mr. February" and replace it with a new title: Champ.
Stanford is out of Luck in this contest... Literally... No longer led by QB Andrew Luck, the Cardinal should be no contest on the road. The Buckeyes win going away and look forward to their trip to the Bayou next week, where coach UTVOL54 used to roam the sidelines.
AND NOW THE RUTS USER MATCHUPS!
#3 Oklahoma at #10 North Carolina
A battle of the top returning QB's statistically from last season, the Sooner bring Landry Jones to the Tarheel State to face off against North Carolina and Heisman Candidate Bryn Renner. Gameday looks for a shootout here. The Sooners have better talent up and down the line. However, the Tarheels come out with something to prove following a disappointing loss in last season SEC Championship Game.
With a BCS Bowl on their mind, Carolina will take to the air early and often with Bryn Renner. However, the OU Defense holds firm. Gameday takes the Sooners, in a close one.
#2 LSU at #5 Miami
Gameday is in Coral Gables for this top 5 showdown, one that Fowler promises will be a "doosie." Both team will debut new starting QB's as AJ Highsmith replaces Jacory Harris for the Hurricanes. The Hurricane come in looking to build on last season's top 10 finish.
LSU coach cjohnchavis has stayed mum of his choice for starting QB, though conventional wisdom is that talent Sophomore Cameron Treangen will win the job over Zach Lee.
Rumor swirl that LSU will be wearing their "White Tiger" uniform, that have only been worn against Mississippi State. Coach Stinvol has stated "I don't care what uniforms they wear, they can come out naked for all I care, we are still gonna be the U."
And the new Gameday host picks...
