Some former Falcon notes as the regular season ends.

James Morgan had a rough game and FIU failed to clinch the East Division at home against Marshall.  He is #8 in the nation in passing efficiency.

Dino Babers went 9-3 for Syracuse this year.  They are top 20 ranked and that's the most Orange wins since 2001.  A bowl win would mark their 5th 10 win season in program history.

Dave Clawson had a tough year.  They had 13 season-ending injuries.  Even so, they beat Duke 59-7 in Durham yesterday to get to 6-6 and be bowl eligible for the third straight year, only the second time Wake has ever done that.

Gregg Brandon coached the Colorado School of Mines to the DII playoffs again.  They were #1 in the nation in total offense and #4 in scoring.  They hung 82 on a conference opponent.

Terrence Stephens led Robert Morris in rushing with 793 yards and 4 TDs.

Cam Jeffries played in all 12 games at UC, with an INT and 2 FR.

Tyree Jackson transferred to Southern Illinois and made 5 tackles.

Calvin Clater transferred to Stephen F. Austin and played in 3 games without a catch.

I saw the recent article in the Blade about possible new coaches. Personally, and because they need a fast turn around, I'm hoping for an assistant who isn't in an upper tier bowl game so they can get started.
