Morning Roundup, Wednesday

paperI’m not sure these two gubernatorial races were a referendum on Obama… Three softball players found dead inside a car; awful…Disney’s going to Shanghai

The weekly guessing game continues in Cincinnati: who’s starting at QB? (Rivals.com)

If not this week, Zach Collaros knows he won’t be starting soon. He says he’s okay with that. (Cincinnati Enquirer)

Assessing Cincinnati’s chances at playing for the BCS title. (Dr. Saturday)

“I never thought a day in my life I’d be taking flak from somebody from Cincinnati.” So moans a Heisman winner. (Detroit News)

UConn fans, Zach Frazer’s still your man. Box is redshirting. Still, Randy Edsall is moving to the left. He’s not Rush Limbaugh anymore. (Connecticut Post)

Edsall actually “bopped” to the podium yesterday. Bopped. (Hartford Courant)

He’s been bombarded all season and now, Steve Kragthorpe finally acknowledges it may be time for a hard hat. Louisville’s playing in Morgantown. Since little he’s said has worked, Kragthorpe opened his meeting room to Tony Dungy. (Louisville Courier-Journal)

Smashmouth run games are nice. Pitt’s receivers think airing things out is nicer. Pitt’s attendance numbers are sort of impressive. Relatively speaking. (Pittsburgh Post-Gazette)

Dave Wannstedt has stuck mouse traps in his locker room (before Pitt saw Syracuse last year) and lobster traps in his locker room (when his Dolphins had the Patriots two games away). This week, with Syracuse coming to town, he doesn’t think he needs the gimmicks. (Pittsburgh Tribune-Review)

What he would be into is those mustard yellow uniforms. And playing Penn State. (Rivals.com)

Tim Brown’s warned Kenny Britt: he’s coming after his Rutgers receiving record. (Star-Ledger)

Even Jim Leavitt called his walk-on kicker “a pretty neat little story.” USF’s softball coach is helping BJ Daniels learn how to slide. (Tampa Tribune)

Mike Williams cost himself between $1-2 million NFL dollars by quitting. Losing five contributors isn’t helping Doug Marrone’s team any. Then again, it probably is helping his program-building. (Syracuse Post-Standard)

It wasn’t only football having a lousy day. Jim Boeheim’s team lost to LeMoyne. Division II LeMoyne. (Syracuse Post-Standard)

Bill Stewart’s best coaching may not involve Xs and Os. (Times West Virginian)

Here’s a voice who says Stewart better get on those Xs and Os. (Charleston Gazette)
