Lynch found a perfect home with one of the leagues best franchises and a coach (Gary Kubiak) whose philosophies mesh with his skill set. While Lynch could play his way onto the field this year, the Broncos arent planning to rush him.Mike Sando, senior NFL writer: Jack Conklin, OT, Titans. The run-oriented Titans want to mash opponents into the ground. Conklin did that more impressively than anyone in college football last season.

Its exciting and its fun to be a part of this game.Troy (7-1, 4-0) hasnt been involved in such a meaningful Sun Belt game since the programs string of five straight league titles ended in 2010. The Trojans have been getting votes in the Associated Press poll for the first time.The Mountaineers (7-2, 5-0), who won last seasons marathon game 44-41, are more familiar with this position having become the only other Sun Belt team to start 7-1 last season.Both teams are riding six-game winning streaks.
