Frank,
This was in the Bruce Feldman notebook section. You’re getting there!
Around the college football landscape
• The New Orleans Bowl was pretty entertaining. Middle Tennessee QB Dwight Dasher showed why he’s one of the top run-pass threats in the country.
• Wyoming also finished the season strong, and you had to like what you saw from true freshman QB Austyn Carta-Samuels, who threw three TDs and ran for 71 yards as the Cowboys upset Fresno State. He was named game MVP.
• Another impressive performance this weekend came from Villanova’s versatile star Matt Szczur (pronounced like “Caesar”) who sparked the Cats to the FCS championship by running for 159 yards. That effort prompted a great line in the Daily Philadelphian:
Forget Michael Vick. Matt Szczur is the best Wildcat in Philadelphia.
The 5-foot-11, 195-pounder is an intriguing prospect. He was drafted out of high school by the Dodgers and was a star sprinter in high school. I’m curious what NFL scouts will think of Szczur.
Oh…. Boo hoo…. Vick can’t play. Maybe he can go to a dog fight instead. (Or feed some kittens to starving pit bulls.)
