Forget which teams have the best defense, which quarterbacks have the best arms and which receivers have the best legs. Today, SIOC cares about one thing: names. That's right, we're naming (no pun intended) our 2006 All-Name Team. Here's who we have so far:

C.J. Ah You – DE, Oklahoma
LeQuantum McDonald -- DT, Baylor
J. Survival Ross – RB, Boston College
John David Booty – QB, USC
Xavier Rambo – WR, Kansas

Houston Nutt - Coach, Arkansas

We need help filling out the roster. Who are your nominations?

Week 8 Impressions

Week 8 wasn't the most exciting in college football, but there were a few certainties that came out of the weekend:

1) Clemson has the best 1-2 rushing attack. James Davis (21 carries, 216 yards, 2 TDs) and C.J. Spiller (16 carries, 116 yards, 1 TD, 1 catch, 50 yards) ran all over the No. 22 Yellow Jackets in a 31-7 victory.

2) Colt McCoy is good enough to lead Texas to a national championship. We knew he was good, but this good? Not only did he complete 25 of 39 passes for 220 yards, two TDs and no interceptions, he got better as the game wore on, capped off by a last-minute drive to get walk-on Ryan Bailey on the field for the winning kick.

3) The battle for the final BCS spot will be interesting. We figure one will go to the Michigan-Ohio State winner. Another will go to USC (who will beat Notre Dame on Nov. 25) and Louisville (who we like to beat West Virginia on Nov. 2). The last will be a battle between Auburn and Texas. We think Texas has the edge because of their tough D and McCoy’s improved play.

Those are three things we took out of Week 8. What were your impressions?
