  • Notas De La NFL De La Undécima Semana
    17 de noviembre de 2020 Notas de la NFL de la undécima semana EMPIEZA LA PUJA FINAL POR CLASIFICAR CUANDO LA NFL LLEGA A SU UNDÉCIMA SEMANA ¿Un pase anotador de 43 yardas que define el pleito con dos segundos por jugarse? Eso fue apenas el primer acto. A lo largo de la NFL, 15 equipos tienen al menos seis victorias, la mayor cantidad en cualquier temporada a lo largo de 10 semanas. En cualquier campaña anterior, al llegar a la undécima semana, la mayor cantidad de equipos con seis o más victorias fue 14, tanto en 1984 como en 1986. Ocho de esos 15 equipos con seis o más victorias no alcanzaron la postemporada el año anterior. Desde 1990, al menos cuatro equipos han clasificado a la postemporada cada temporada luego de no haberlo podido hacer el año previo. Y arrancando esta temporada, la NFL devela un formato de playoffs de 14 equipos, con dos equipos Comodín adicionales –uno de la AFC y otro de la NFC– que clasificarán a la postemporada. Esta semana, cinco partidos de la undécima semana tienen enfrentamientos cabeza a cabeza de equipos con al menos seis victorias: • Tras un emocionante triunfo en la décima semana, los ARIZONA CARDINALS (6-3) visitan a los SEATTLE SEAHAWKS (6-3) para dar inicio a la undécima semana en el clásico de jueves en la noche Thursday Night Football (8:20 PM, hora de New York, FOX/NFLN/Amazon). En la séptima semana, Arizona derrotó a Seattle 37-34 en la prórroga. • Los GREEN BAY PACKERS (7-2), uno de dos los equipos de la NFC con siete victorias esta temporada, visitarán a los líderes de la AFC, los INDIANAPOLIS COLTS (6-3) el domingo (4:25 PM, hora de New York, FOX).

  • The Following Players Comprise the College Football Great Teams 2 Card Set
    COLLEGE FOOTBALL GREAT TEAMS OF THE PAST 2 SET ROSTER The following players comprise the College Football Great Teams 2 Card Set. The regular starters at each position are listed first and should be used most frequently. Realistic use of the players below will generate statistical results remarkably similar to those from real life. IMPORTANT: When a Red "K" appears in the R-column as the result on any kind of running play from scrimmage or on any return, roll the dice again, refer to the K-column, and use the number there for the result. When a player has a "K" in his R-column, he can never be used for kicking or punting. If the symbol "F-K" or "F-P" appears on a players card, it means that you use the K or P column when he recovers a fumble. Players in bold are starters. If there is a difference between the player's card and the roster sheet, always use the card information. The number in ()s after the player name is the number of cards that the player has in this set. See below for a more detailed explanation of new symbols on the cards. 1971 NEBRASKA 1971 NEBRASKA 1972 USC 1972 USC OFFENSE DEFENSE OFFENSE DEFENSE EB: Woody Cox End: John Adkins EB: Lynn Swann TA End: James Sims Johnny Rodgers (2) TA TB, OA Willie Harper Edesel Garrison Dale Mitchell Frosty Anderson Steve Manstedt John McKay Ed Powell Glen Garson TC John Hyland Dave Boulware (2) PA, KB, KOB Tackle: John Grant Tackle: Carl Johnson Tackle: Bill Janssen Chris Chaney Jeff Winans Daryl White Larry Jacobson Tackle: Steve Riley John Skiles Marvin Crenshaw John Dutton Pete Adams Glenn Byrd Al Austin LB: Jim Branch Cliff Culbreath LB: Richard Wood Guard: Keith Wortman Rich Glover Guard: Mike Ryan Monte Doris Dick Rupert Bob Terrio Allan Graf Charles Anthony Mike Beran Bruce Hauge Allan Gallaher Glen Henderson Bruce Weber Monte Johnson Booker Brown George Follett Center: Doug Dumler Pat Morell Don Morrison Ray Rodriguez John Kinsel John Peterson Mike McGirr Jim Stone ET: Jerry List CB: Jim Anderson TC Center: Dave Brown Tom Bohlinger Brent Longwell PC Joe Blahak Marty Patton CB: Charles Hinton TB.
