Cal Poly's DE Chris Gocong had a great week of practice and is expected to see a lot of playing time. I am looking forward to the game.

gocong just had a real nice tackle for loss the first play of the game, looks good. the alabama state QB looks pretty impressive as well.

Colston just made an amazing catch in the corner of the endzone to bring the East squad within 7 points. He jumped up, and basically tipped the ball to himself as he fell out of the endzone, but managed to hold onto the ball.

yea that guy from hofstra is really makin a name for himself with his performace so far.

Boothe and Colston are getting props. But they are referred to as "Players from smaller schools". :mad:

Good to see Colston do well, also good to see the other "smaller school" kids show that they can play.
