What is #CFBrank? #CFBrank is the Twitter hashtag to use if you want to get involved in the discussion or just follow along.How did we rank the players? We asked 32 of ESPNs college football writers, editors and analysts to rate players on a scale of 0-10 based on their expected contributions for the 2016 season.100-91 | 90-81 |?80-71 |?70-61 | 60-51 | 50-41 | 40-31 | 30-21 | 20-11 | 10-1Bo Scarbrough Alabama Crimson Tide Sophomore | Running Back Score: 7.58What has Scarbrough done to deserve mention as one of college footballs best running backs? On the field, not much. But you can disregard last seasons 108 yards and one touchdown. As a former five-star prospect stepping into a system that has produced two Heisman Trophy-winning running backs, much is expected.Kendell Beckwith LSU Tigers Senior | Linebacker Score: 7.59LSU returns a whopping 18 starters, but Beckwith ranks among the most important. He is a preseason All-SEC pick after making 84 tackles and 10 tackles for loss last season, but Beckwiths value doubles when taking into account his status as one of LSUs few experienced linebackers.Mike Williams Clemson Tigers Junior | Wide Receiver Score: 7.66With a 1,000-yard season in the books and the NFL on the horizon, Williams entered 2015 as one of the nations top receivers. Then in the first quarter of the first game, he collided with the goal post on a touchdown grab, injuring his neck and missing the season. He returns for 2016 fully healthy and eager to make up for lost time on an offense that could be one of the most explosive in the nation.Minkah Fitzpatrick Alabama Crimson Tide Sophomore | Defensive Back Score: 7.69You dont just walk into Alabamas secondary and play from Day 1. Nick Saban personally coaches the position, and we all know how demanding he can be. So it says something that Fitzpatrick, the former No. 1 prospect out of New Jersey, was able to do exactly that, earning significant playing time at nickel back as a freshman. He not only led the team in passes defended, but he was also a playmaker on special teams.Malik Jefferson Texas Longhorns Sophomore | Linebacker Score: 7.70The unofficial mayor of Austin, as his coaches call him, lived up to the hype as a true freshman and as a linebacker -- but more so as a leader. The Big 12s Preseason Defensive Player of the Year is the face of Charlie Strongs rebuild and should get to do more of what he does best -- rush off the edge -- as a sophomore.Devonte Fields Louisville Cardinals Senior | Linebacker Score: 7.79Fields ended last season on a tear, racking up 10.5 sacks and 18 tackles for loss in the seasons final seven games after transferring to the Cards from junior college. His athleticism outside made him difficult for many offenses to contain. Now that he has had a full offseason in the Louisville program, he should be among the contenders for ACC Defensive Player of the Year.Brad Kaaya Miami Hurricanes Junior | Quarterback Score: 7.80Kaaya has thrown for 3,000 yards in each of his first two seasons and is now closing in on becoming the Hurricanes all-time leading passer. Kaaya needs 3,130 yards to break Ken Dorseys Miami record, set during its last run at a national championship in 2001. Another successful season could mean Kaayas last with the Canes, as an NFL future awaits.Luke Falk Washington State Cougars Junior | Quarterback Score: 7.85He emerged as one of the nations top passers last season, finishing fifth nationally with 4,561 yards and tied for fourth with 38 passing touchdowns. With an outstanding receiving corps and an offense designed to move the ball through the air, look for Falk to build on last seasons success.42. Patrick Mahomes Texas Tech Red Raiders Junior | Quarterback Score: 7.86In his second season at the helm, Mahomes burst into the elite category of QBs nationally last fall. One of five players in FBS history to throw for 4,000 yards and 30 touchdowns while rushing for 450 yards and 10 touchdowns, he led the nation with 393 total-offense yards per game.Zach Banner USC Trojans Senior | Offensive Tackle Score: 7.87 At 6-foot-9, 360 pounds, theres little doubt that Banner is one of the biggest players in college football. He also is a first-team All-Pac-12 performer who could potentially be selected in the first round of the 2017 NFL draft. A 27-game starter and winner of USCs top offensive lineman award last season, hes a likely preseason All-American.100-91 | 90-81 |?80-71 |?70-61 | 60-51 | 50-41 | 40-31 | 30-21 | 20-11 | 10-1Voters: Andrea Adelson, Edward Aschoff, Brian Bennett, Kyle Bonagura, David Ching, Heather Dinich, Matt Fortuna, Kevin Gemmell, David Hale, Travis Haney, Brock Huard, Chantel Jennings, Sharon Katz, Sam Khan Jr., David Lombardi, Chris Low, Tom Luginbill, Ivan Maisel, Ryan McGee, Erik McKinney, Ted Miller, Dan Murphy, Max Olson, Greg Ostendorf, Adam Rittenberg, Alex Scarborough, Jared Shanker, Mitch Sherman, Phil Steele, Jake Trotter, Tom VanHaaren, Austin Ward Alexander Mattison Youth Jersey .

Chris Doleman Womens Jersey . Argentina winger Ezequiel Lavezzi and France midfielder Blaise Matuidi scored, with star striker Zlatan Ibrahimovic setting up both despite having a poor game by his high standards. Forward Eduardo gave Ajaccio the lead in the sixth minute after being set up by right winger Benjamin Andre, and the Corsican side looked comfortable in the first half, with the lively Johan Cavalli causing problems with his probing runs from midfield. Garrett Bradbury Vikings Jersey . The Australian is competing in his final season in Formula One and still looking for his first win this year. He will look to end Vettels run of six straight race wins on Sunday. Webber, who is fifth in the championship, earned his second pole from the past three races and 13th of his career.We examine the Sky Bet Championship play-offs as Brighton, Hull, Derby and Sheffield Wednesday battle it out for a place in the Premier League.

Automatic promotion was a possibility with six games left, but the relentless winning run of the top three plus a blip in form put pay to that chance.Play-off history: Winners (2005)Ollies key man: Barry Bannan: The little genius! He makes Sheffield Wednesday tick from midfield. If given the space he can run a game for you. Hes been sensational this season.

Beaten semi-finalists (2013, 2014) Ollies key man: Beram Kayal: There is a big responsibility on his shoulders with his partner in crime Dale Stephens suspended, but I think hell thrive on it.

New head coach Paul Clement looked to building an easy-on-the-eye team capable of winning the title but a wobble in form and a breakdown in communication with the owner lead to Clements dismissal in February.Following their incomprehensible implosion last season, it looked as though a similar fate was awaiting them as they dropped to sixth in March.

Play-off history: Winners (2008). Beaten semi-finalists (2001).Ollies key man: Robert Snodgrass: He looks to be peaking at the right time following his injury nightmares. When fully fit, he is a Premier League-class player who has the ability to shine on the big stage. Hull Citys Robert Snodgrass is a big-game player, in Ollies opinion Ollies first-leg prediction: I was worried about Derbys mentality earlier this season, but theyve turned a corner in that regard. On their day, they can wipe the floor with anyone.This is a tough test for Hull, who Im shocked didnt finish in the top two. They have relied on Abel Hernandez to score their goals this season - no one else has chipped in regularly - and they have slipped up in too many winnable games.Both these teams have unbelievable talent on show. This game could be any scoreline if there is an early goal, especially now George Thorne is missing for Derby. He gives his back four plenty of protection.In their last seven league games, both teams have scored a total of 28 goals. I fancy a thriller here with Derby just edging it.OLLIE PREDICTS: 3-2 (Sky Bet odds 33/1) Also See: Burnley presented with trophy How to win the play-offs FL play-offs: Who, when, where? Super 6 ' ' '
