This is the day that the rest of college football

has been leading up to—specifically O. J. Simpson Jersey , the College Football Semifinals that will decide which teams will play for a National Championship. For those of us who follow the draft, though, it may just be another chance to watch some 2019 NFL prospects take the field for the final time in their careers. Below you’ll find information about each of the bowl games slated for today as well as the main NFL prospects to keep an eye on.As always, let’s talk about the games, leave questions on prospects and enjoy the weekend.No. 10 Florida vs. no. 7 MichiganPeach Bowl12:00 p.m. Eastern, ESPNTwo teams with elite defenses but inconsistent offenses, The Gators and Wolverines are similar teams on paper and on the field. Florida’s left tackle Jawaan Taylor has become a riser as more analysts watch his tape, but the Gators will only go as far as their defense. On the back end, Chauncey Gardner-Johnson is a strong safety with some degree of versatility as a “big nickel” linebacker. Pass rusher Jachai Polite is an undersized athletic freak that will test off the charts come February. Michigan’s Rashan Gary is another athletic freak, who can play anywhere on the defensive line Womens Jerry Hughes Jersey , but may be most suited as a penetrating defensive tackle. Running-mate Chase Winovich may be more suited to a SAM linebacker role himself, due to be undersized as a defensive end. Wolverine linebacker Devin Bush is slightly undersized for a middle linebacker, but doesn’t play like it. You’ll see him make tackles all over the field.South Carolina vs. VirginiaBelk Bowl12:00 p.m. Eastern, ABCThe Gamecocks duo at wide receiver, Deebo Samuel and Bryan Edwards have started to gel in recent weeks. Samuel has come back from injury and demonstrated why he’s been known by scouts as a threat to score from anywhere on the field. Containing them will be the Cavaliers’ Juan Thornhill, a safety with corner-like cover skills. He’s come down with five interceptions this year.Arkansas State vs. NevadaArizona Bowl9:00 p.m. Eastern, CBSSNThis particular bowl game will be centered around a match-up of two lower-round prospects. The Wolf Pack’s Malik Reed is undersized on the edge, but he has a sack in almost every game he’s played in this season. Staring across from him will be Red Wolves’ senior tackle Lanard Bonner, an East-West Shrine Game invitee.No. 3 Notre Dame vs. no. 2 ClemsonCotton Bowl4:00 p.m. Eastern, ESPNBoth teams are littered with defensive prospects. The Tigers’ entire defensive line is made up of high-level picks http://www.thebillslockerroom.com/authentic-eddie-yarbrough-jersey , with tackles Dexter Lawrence (who will not be playing due to a failed drug test), Christian Wilkins and defensive end Clelin Ferrell. Somewhat surprisingly, Tigers cornerback Trayvon Mullen may be the best defensive prospect on the field. The Fighting Irish bring NFL talent at all three levels of the defense, including at defensive tackle with Jerry Tillery. Tillery was a threat to rush the passer this season and had eight sacks to show for it. Cornerback Julian Love is one of the more physical corners in the nation and had 15 pass break-ups (!!) this year.No. 4 Oklahoma vs. no. 1 AlabamaOrange Bowl8:00 p.m. Eastern, ESPNIt’ll be strength-against-strength in this year’s Orange Bowl. Few teams have been able to score on the Crimson Tide defense because they’re stacked from top to bottom. Defensive tackle Quinnen Williams is sure to be a top-five pick, while his running mate Raekwon Davis won’t be far behind. On the back end, Deionte Thompson has rare center-field ability at safety. Offensively, the team brings left tackle Jonah Williams and tight end Irv Smith Jr. to the table—two players ranked among the best at their positions. The Sooners are all about offense, with deep threat Marquise Brown and their guards Dru Samia and Ben Powers. Buffalo Bills running back LeSean McCoy said allegations that he abused his 6-year-old son were "ridiculous" and being made by people attempting to further their own agendas."These people honestly have so much to gain by doing this," McCoy said after practice Wednesday. "But I'm not going to sit here and spend too much time even talking about it. It's crazy. It's ridiculous. Everything I do is for my little man Ramon Humber Jersey , my son. And If I didn't care, I wouldn't be fighting for custody of my boy."McCoy's comments came a day after he was called "a monster" by his son's mother in a three-page document filed in Fulton County State Court in Georgia. Stephanie Maisonet said her son would often come home crying and with bruises after visiting McCoy, allegations he denied.Maisonet also said in the court papers that she initially agreed to defend McCoy against allegations of abuse made by his ex-girlfriend in July even though she said she knew the accusations to be true. She said she reluctantly agreed to the deal only after McCoy offered to drop a custody case.McCoy called Maisonet's allegations "provably false, outrageously inaccurate and offensive" in a message he posted Tuesday on his Instagram and Twitter accounts.On Wednesday, McCoy said he won't let Maisonet's comments affect him."In this world with social media, you could say what you want, the cameras and everybody will take it and run with it," he said."I can't control that. The only thing I can control is being a great dad," McCoy added. "I love my son. Anybody that knows me or ever sees me around with my boy, they know what type of relationship we have."The running back's off-field troubles spilled over into the Bills facility as Buffalo (0-2) prepared to play at Minnesota (1-0-1) on Sunday.McCoy's status is uncertain after he hurt his ribs in a 31-20 loss to the Los Angeles Chargers last weekend.He said he is still experiencing pain after practicing on a limited basis while wearing a red noncontact jersey. The biggest issue is the pain he feels when he runs Womens Dion Dawkins Jersey , as opposed to getting hit.McCoy said he will likely know by Saturday whether he can play.He is also trying not to let his legal issues become a distraction."It comes down to my faith," McCoy said. "There's tons of prayer. I'm tough. I've been through a lot of things."Maisonet's comments were added to a lawsuit filed last month by McCoy's ex-girlfriend Delicia Cordon. Cordon alleged McCoy failed to protect her after she was bloodied, beaten and had $133,000 worth of jewelry stolen by an intruder at a home the running back owns in Milton, just outside Atlanta.Cordon also said McCoy would "often brutally beat his dog," and would "aggressively, physically discipline and beat his young son."Last week, McCoy's lawyers asked a judge to throw out the lawsuit, saying there was no basis to hold him responsible for Cordon being hurt. They also argued the lawsuit was filled with unrelated false, salacious allegations that were meant to embarrass McCoy and cast him in a bad light.The Bills continue to back McCoy as they have since Cordon first raised the issues of abuse following the home invasion http://www.thebillslockerroom.com/authentic-colton-schmidt-jersey , which occurred on July 10."I've been pleased with the way he's handled himself since the start of training camp," McDermott said. "And I look forward to having him on the field this week."The NFL did not immediately respond to a request for comment regarding the new allegations made against McCoy. Commissioner Roger Goodell has the power to place players on an exempt list, essentially suspending them indefinitely, even if no laws are broken."I'm aware of those things happening and we respect that," McDermott said when asked of the possibility of the NFL stepping in. "Right now, from where we stand, nothing has changed from the way it was in training camp."McCoy has a custody hearing scheduled in November.NOTES: DE Shaq Lawson did not practice because of a hamstring injury that prevented him from playing last weekend. ... WR Kelvin Benjamin (hip) and CBs Phillip Gaines (dislocated right elbow) and Taron Johnson (shoulder) practiced on a limited basis.
