Christian Okoye, Tulane – This is actually the son of “The Nigerian Nightmare” Christian Okoye, the bruising running back for the Kansas City Chiefs. Okoye is probably best known for his Tecmo Super Bowl prowess. The name Okoye in Nigerian means “blessed on Sundays” (seriously!). Unfortunately for the son, Tulane plays its games on Saturdays, thus rendering the younger Christian a mere mortal.

 

Nick Cannon, Tulane – “Daddy, Nick Cannon is hilarious.”

 

Evander Holyfield, Auburn

 

Joe Girardi, Miami

 

Michael McDonald, USC

 

Richie Rich, UNC

 

Colin Ferrell, Kent State

 

Jimmy Johns, Alabama – Jimmy Johns must’ve dined on too many Jimmy John’s Gourmet Sandwiches over the summer, because the once prodigious heir to Ken Darby has been relegated to the bench.

 

Maserati Jemison, Arizona State – Arizona State is pretty much playing like a Maserati right now, while its rival Arizona is playing more like a Kia Sephia.

 

Mike Jones, Arizona State – WHO?!

 

Jordan White-Frisbee
