As they cruise through the easiest part of their 2006 schedule, the Jets have stubbed their toes without falling down. They followed up a near-collapse against Miami last week with a front-running -- but sloppy -- win over the Lions to improve their record to 4-3 and keep things positive heading into a winnable game at Cleveland next week.

Naturally Gothamist will be watching every televised game from Noon until 2 am in......

Oklahoma � Oregon isn�t great this year, but that�s still a quality win. 2. Miami 3 . Southern Cal � A young team that will improve as the season progresses. Pac 10 is weak, and getting Cal at home sure helps. 4. Georgia � How can a team with so......
