Minnesota Vikings vs. New Orleans Saints
Minnesota Defense vs. New Orleans Offense:The Vikings have a strong rush defense, but New Orleans doesn’t really try to pound the ball. Drew Brees likes to get the ball out quick, and I think Minnesota’s secondary is going to have trouble with all of New Orleans’ weapons. The Vikings have to get pressure on Brees to get the Saints out of sink…. I just don’t see it happening that often. Advantage New Orleans
Minnesota Offense vs. New Orleans Defense: The Vikings are so balanced offensively where does a defense even begin? New Orleans’ defense has played pretty well so far in the playoffs, but Minnesota is by far the most balanced and potent offense in the NFL. Advantage Minnesota
Intangibles: This game is at the Superdome, but don’t expect the Saints to be the beneficiary of home field officiating. Brett Favre in the Super Bowl is $$$ for everyone. Brett Favre vs. Peyton Manning is even better. Expect the Saints to get the short end of the officiating stick this weekend. Advantage Minnesota
Prediction: Minnesota 34 New Orleans 31

New York Jets vs. Indianapolis Colts
The Jets one dimensional offense will be their downfall. This game is in Indy which bodes well for Indianapolis, but ultimately Peyton Manning has been here before and his experience combined with the Colt’s potent passing attack will be the difference maker.
Prediction: Indianapolis 24 New York 17
Brian Kaldenberg, GameRosters.com President, gives a little info on what GameRosters.com has to offer over the holiday season.
Brett Favre continues to pad his post-playing NFL analyst marketability with gobs and gobs of free PR as he drags out his career yet again.
The most recent victim? The Minnesota Vikings. The Vikings have visions of the Kurt Warner success story dancing in their heads. The problem? Kurt Warner is better than Brett Favre.
The Minnesota Vikings officially made the NFC North a two team race between Chicago and Green Bay.
5. Syracuse
We may be going out on a big limb with this one, but we are throwing the Orange into the mix. Coach Doug Marrone, a former player, has made an effort to get ‘Cuse more in touch with its past, when they were a nationally respected program. Syracuse does lose some key pieces from last year, but they also return some guys who can make big impacts. RB Delone Carter might be better than the departed Curtis Brinkley, and WR Mike Williams is the best receiver the Orange has seen in years. It looks like the nod at QB will go to Ryan Nassib, who has never started a college game but has been phenomenal this off-season. (more…)
Another entry in GameRosters.com’s series of college football “top 5’s”. These teams may not be on the radar of most college football fans, but they should be. All of them hail from non-BCS conferences (3 from the Mountain West) and receive little television exposure. That doesn’t mean these teams aren’t worth checking out. You want offense? Check out Houston and Boise State. Defense? TCU will smother offenses all year. Rivalries? Attend the Holy War between Utah and BYU and then we’ll talk. This Top 5 list has a little bit of everything for the college football fan, so let’s look at each team a little more in-depth.

It’s been awhile since we last posted a blog update; we have been busy working on producing and distributing our rosters for NCAA 10. Now that we’ve got some time to blog again, we’ll continue our series of “Top 5’s” with the Top 5 Conference Games of 2009. Let’s jump right in.

I just want to update everyone where we stand with the NCAA Football 10 rosters.
Thanks for all your support guys!
UPDATE to the UPDATE: Changing the estimate to 6:30PM CST. Some of you will be more like 7:00 and 7:30 PM because we can only distribute e-mails so fast. Sorry fellas, but I guess we still have 50% of Troy left to do… Who cares about Troy anyways right!! but we are into the “U” teams as far as cleaning up.
We’re receiving about 200 calls, questions, e-mails and chats per hour. I just wanted to let you know we are about 15 teams away. We saved the hard part for last. The smaller teams aren’t as easy, and they contain a lot of discrepancies. They are taking anywhere from 1 to 1.5 hours per team.
Unlike others, we refuse to cut corners. We want to get it as close to right the first time so we are taking our time to ensure roster accuracy.
It is currently looking like we will start distributing the rosters sometime tomorrow (Sunday). We have brought another person aboard to create roster templates on Excel sheets to help us navigate these last few teams.
