Brett Favre should be the starting quarterback for the Packers in 2008 but it doesn't look like it will happen. The Packer fans are the best pro football fans. They are even more loyal than the Steeler and the Cowboy fans. The fans and TV should want Favre back. He gives them the best chance to make the playoffs next year. Aaron Rodgers is a good quarterback but he is no Favre. Management is being too stubborn. I would hate to be the new quarterback when he has a rough start to the season.
Favre is likely to land with Tampa Bay to play for Jon Gruden.
Nebraska has picked up two more recruits this week. One is Emerson Evans from Houston Texas. He is a defensive end and he is not rated very high by Rivals or Scout. He had offers from Ole Miss, Utah and UTEP. Emerson is known as a rising star and a power rusher which will fit a need for the defensive side of the ball. I would guess he will end up a three-star. Also Nebraska got an offensive tackle from Texas. His name is Jesse Coffey. He was down to Kansas and Nebraska as to his last choices. Arkansas had also offered Coffey. Nebraska is hitting Texas hard in their recruiting efforts.
The media has picked Missouri and Oklahoma to win the Big 12 divisions. Missouri will have a season similar to Texas last year. Colt McCoy was the preseason pick for MVP of the Big 12 in 2007 and had a so-so year. Look to the same thing happening this year to the Tigers. In the south, the game of the year will be Texas Tech at Oklahoma. Ohlahoma has 17 starters back but they lost a lot of depth. Injuries could be a factor for them. If they stay healthy, Oklahoma wins.
The Big 12 final will be Nebraska with home games against Missouri, Kansas, and Colorado and the winner of the Oklahoma-Texas Tech game. I take Oklahoma if they stay healthy.
The South winner will win the Big 12 Championship this year. The writers are wrong about Missouri. Nebraska will prevail in the North but they will need to improve even more to win it all.
