Clemson / FSU Battle Highlights Week 11; Paparazzi Targets RUTS Coaches


Week 11 features three outstanding matchups in RUTS 1's final season. At the conclusion of this week, the national title race may still be long from over, but it will become a little bit clearer.

#1 LSU hosts SEC West rival #5 Alabama, #6 Florida takes on surprising #9 South Carolina, and in what has become RUTS' most heated rivalry, Florida State and Clemson do battle in Tallahassee, with both teams being tied for the #3 spot in the latest BCS rankings.

Coach utvol27 was quoted this week as being excited to participate in yet another "Crush the Noles Hopes and Dreams Week," while FSU coach cjohnchavis has mandated a no-media-allowed policy at this week's practices.

Week 11 could be a huge week in determining the national championship picture, however, several big games remain on tap for the final weeks of RUTS. Clemson closes the season with road games at West Virginia and #2 USC. The Seminoles close the season with visits to Notre Dame and #6 Florida. The Gators close with a road game at Pittsburgh, before returning home to host the Seminoles. The #1 LSU Tigers have perhaps the easiest remaining schedule, with games against Ole Miss and Arkansas. However, an SEC title game rematch looms on the horizon against the Gators, who could also be playing that game for a spot in the national title game if things go their way in the final weeks of the regular season.

It will be interesting to see if the RUTS coaches allow rumors of their impending departure to the NFL coaching ranks to affect their gameplans, decision making, and focus in the final weeks. All four RUTS coaches have been targets of tabloid blotter and paparazzi stalkings since a source close to the situation told People Magazine that it "looks to be set in stone that all 4 coaches would be making the jump to the NFL" next season. Here are photos from a recent People Magazine cover story

Coach utvol27 poses for mingling photogs outside of the former Miami beachfront home of Coach Stu (Miami head coach seasons 3-4). Rumors speculate the utvol27 is looking to but Coach Stu's home on South Beach.



As paparazzi gather outside of his bedroom window, Coach StuBucksman not so subtlety offers a hint that his loyalty lies with Hot-lanta!



Coach cjohnchavis was invited by Colts QB Peyton Manning to participate in the annual "Colts Battle to Fight Irritable Bowel Syndrome Softball Classic"...could this be a sign that cjohnchavis is heading north?



While vacationing on the east coast during a recent LSU off-week, Coach UTVOL54 is photographed sporting his latest tattoo, a not so subtle nod to his NFL team of choice.
