CBS Sports.com's Dennis Dodd breaks down Boise State's win over the Hokies, which has them poised to bust up the BCS.

Maybe it is the fact that I am also up for contract and more susceptible to my surroundings, but regardless there are a lot of changes in store for the 2011 cycling season.

If history has taught us anything, those glory years don't last forever, but that doesn't mean the hot streak for Bob Stapleton's boys is over just yet.
Sure André Greipel's departure leaves a big hole in the team's armada. Greipel has been responsible for winning more races than any other rider on the team, or in the peloton for that matter, this year. Each season has seen Greipel taking the team's first wins in Australia and...
5. Give me 3!: All it takes is one semi-serious fall off your bike to convert you to being a vocal supporter of safer roads cyclists.
