Derek Henry's Poem

Improved Essays
Those of you who expected Alabama to crumble to Texas A&M, you are on my list. I had complete faith and confidence that Alabama would win. Unfortunately, I was not able to watch the game. I did keep track of the scoring plays with my ESPN alerts on my phone and let just say that Derek Henry was on FIRE! 236 yards for a running back? Derek Henry for Heisman everybody.

I do need to lash out some anger to the tv reporters on ESPN. You may skip the next paragraph if my opinions do not entertain you. Alright here we go...

Why in the world is Leonard Fournette from LSU number one in the polls for Heisman?? Has everyone gone mad?! They are even saying Devontae Booker from Utah will be considered for Heisman. Did anyone see the Utah game against

Those of you that follow me on twitter will get the most up-to-date information about how great Alabama is. I do not only tweet Alabama just so everyone knows that. This video shows just easy Derek Henry makes these plays look. I have talked about Eddie Jackson before but let me just say that guy is a beast! He intercepted the ball for a 93-yard touchdown! Alabama ran all over those poor Aggies and they will do that again with Tennessee next week.

Since I did not watch the Alabama football I cannot all hail glory to their name. Well, yes I can. Anyways, time to talk about Utah and Arizona. My smirked face will say it all. Utah still has not proven to me that they are number four in the nation. Heck, they are ranked number three now. However, everyone is talking this play. It was hilarious!! Below is the video and let just say that it is just as bad when Utah dropped the ball before the end-zone against Oregon. Keep in mind though, this is what the broadcaster said, "That is absolutely ridiculous." Utah began to improve their offense in the second half. However, there wasn't enough improvement to make me think they are rated correctly. Utah is by far way too over rated. If Utah was to play Stanford next week. They are done. If was to play Alabama, they would quit. I got into a little mishap yesterday because I was all decked out in my Alabama gear and there were some ute fans that believe Utah could beat Alabama. I laughed

    Sometimes, in sports or in life in general, there are favorites and underdogs. There is a general consensus that the favorite team or player will win but sometimes it`s the underdog that wins and receives all the honor related with that win. This is very similar to what I read about Seabiscuit and what I watched in the video of Jason McElwain. Some people have the ability to transcend their underdog status (ie. Red from Seabiscuit and Jason) and create something very special.…

    There is always drama and suspense leading up to National Signing Day which has become the most important day to college football teams all around the country but that wasn't the case this afternoon for the West Virginia Mountaineers. Today saw Coach Holgorsen and his staff sign every committed player that was expected to sign, sign with the Mountaineers. West Virginia failed to sign a quarterback in this class which concerns some fans but don't forget that WVU has Will Grier (JR), Chris Chugunov (SO), and Cody Saunders (FR). There is youth at the position but as we have seen before you can never have enough experience at the quarterback position. Two strengths that West Virginia walked away with in this class are defensive line and defensive backfield which should make defensive coordinator Tony Gibson a very happy man.…
