in todays usa today.

FSB leaders in receiving yards a game:
1. Greg Salas- Hawaii- 159.7*
2. Jeremy Williams- Tulane- 139.0
4. Emanuel Sanders-SMU- 130.7
5. Rodney Bradley- Hawaii- 127.0*

*Entering Hawaii- La Tech game Wed

Rodney Bradley originally signed with SMU but did not qualify and had to go the JC route. Can you imagine a receiving corps of Sanders, Robinson (healthy), Bradley, Johnson, and Wilkerson? Only Bo throwing
INTs could stop that group!
is it i before e or e before i. typo

Most of the time, but the correct spelling for "their" is t-h-e-i-r. Why it doesn't follow the general rule is beyond me...it just doesn't. :)

The 'i before e' tradition changed on 'their' because T Boone Pickens and his wife wanted it that way....one tradition at a time .......

Except when sounding like "a" which in this case means e before I.
