| Sore Buckeye Wells ready for Penn State (AP) |
| Chris "Beanie" Wells is sore all over. His foot still hurts from an injury that sidelined him three games, and aches and pains still linger from last week's season-high 31 carries. And especially when he's black and blue, Wells relishes the thrill of a big game. That comes Saturday when No. 10 Ohio State hosts No. -- read full article |

| Boise State, San Jose State meet Friday (AP) |
| The past two years, San Jose State has been just a play away from spoiling the BCS dreams of Boise State and Hawaii. Those losses to the Broncos on a last-second field goal in 2006 and to the Warriors in overtime last season are still fresh on the minds of the Spartans. Heading into Friday night's game against No. -- read full article |

| White, Devine lift WVU over Auburn 34-17 (AP) |

| Overlooked Georgia Tech defense shines (AP) |
| Through the whole offseason, all anyone wanted to talk about was that Georgia Tech offense. Would the spread option really work? Would the Yellow Jackets be able to win games without much of a passing game? Scant attention was paid to the other side of the line. "You know," defensive tackle Darryl Richard said, breaking into a sly grin, "it's not too bad to operate in the shadows." While the new... -- read full article |

| Young Georgia OL faces tough LSU matchup (AP) |
| No deep analysis is required to see that Georgia's offensive line is headed toward a tough matchup at LSU. For the most part, it'll be Georgia's underclassmen against the Tigers' upperclassmen. Georgia's offensive line includes three freshmen and two sophomores. It has no seniors or juniors on its depth chart -- starters or backups. -- read full article |

| Kansas tries to slow Texas Tech offense (AP) |
| Kansas coach Mark Mangino first saw Mike Leach's spread offense at Kentucky, remembers the havoc it created for opposing defenses. He witnessed Leach's sandlot-style system up close at Oklahoma, the two assistants helping turn the Sooners into a national championship team under coach Bob Stoops. Mangino has watched the mad genius of mayhem hone his offense the past eight seasons at Texas Tech,... -- read full article |

| Cincinnati QB Pike plays with broken arm (AP) |
| Wearing a bright red No. 15 jersey that was supposed to protect him from hits in practice, quarterback Tony Pike took a snap in shotgun formation Tuesday and soon got bumped off-balance by a charging defensive player. The Cincinnati Bearcats thought: Oh, no! Pike instinctively prevented himself from falling by extending his left arm -- the one with the forearm covered by a soft cast -- to the... -- read full article |

| No. 10 Buckeyes' goals still in reach (AP) |
| After getting pummeled by then-No. 1 Southern Cal back on Sept. 13, the beaten and discouraged Ohio State Buckeyes straggled onto a plane for the long trip home. "Quiet. Very quiet. Very long," offensive tackle Alex Boone said, describing the flight. Five wins later, the 10th-ranked Buckeyes have a chance to make up for that prime-time failing and undo a lot of heartache when play No. -- read full article |

| Georgia Tech looking like ACC favorite (AP) |
| Michael Johnson wasn't aware so many prognosticators thought so little of Georgia Tech in the preseason. One national magazine predicted the Yellow Jackets would go 3-9 and manage only one victory in the Atlantic Coast Conference. Another went with 4-8 overall, 2-6 in the league. "Oooh, was it that bad?" said Johnson, Georgia Tech's star defensive end, after coming off the practice field Tuesday... -- read full article |

| Ref-player collision is an Internet hit (AP) |
| Former Kentucky linebacker Wilbur Hackett Jr.'s latest hit may be his most popular of all. The former Wildcat standout and current Southeastern Conference official was the umpire in last Saturday night's LSU-South Carolina game and became an instant Internet sensation for his shoulder-first knock back of Gamecock quarterback Stephen Garcia. -- read full article |

| Stoops still using Snyder's approach (AP) |
| Bob Stoops has come a long way since his early days as a pupil of Bill Snyder at Kansas State, when there weren't enough defensive linemen on scholarship to make up a front four, or even a front three. He's got a national championship and five Big 12 titles on his resume as a head coach, and No. 4 Oklahoma (6-1, 2-1 Big 12) is about as far removed as you can get from the K-State program of two... -- read full article |

| Georgia aims to end red-zone frustration (AP) |
| Georgia's offensive numbers don't add up. The Bulldogs dominated in yards but settled for modest margins on the scoreboard in wins over Tennessee and Vanderbilt the last two weeks. The No. 9 Bulldogs know they can't waste scoring chances when they play at No. 11 LSU on Saturday. "They're a really good team and we know we've got to play a really good game for us, sound football, not turn the ball over,... -- read full article |

| Surging USC's points streak at 138 (AP) |
| On the heels of a stunning loss at Oregon State last month, Southern California fell behind Oregon 10-3 the next week, making it seem that all the hype about USC might have been overdone. Since falling behind the Ducks, however, the Trojans have been every bit as good as advertised. USC enters Saturday night's crucial Pac-10 game at Arizona having outscored the opposition 138-0 since early in the... -- read full article |

| The loser in the Terrelle Pryor recruiting sweepstakes gets his first up-close look at Ohio State's freshman phenom. Penn State coach Joe Paterno doesn't have any regrets or hold any grudges. "No, no. Everybody's got to do what they got to do. You're dealing with a kid who's got to make a life for himself," Paterno said Tuesday outside Beaver Stadium. -- read full article |
