spt_FBCQBWRTandems[i-1].body = "
Skills: Bryant slides into the Percy Harvin/Jeremy Maclin role as the nation's top playmaker on the perimeter. Robinson, lost amid the Big 12's quarterback bonanza, throws and runs well, and has as many weapons as any quarterback in the country.
Chemistry: The on-field synergy is superb; Robinson found Bryant nine times in the first half of the Holiday Bowl against Oregon before the receiver left with an injury.
Game to watch: Sept. 5 vs. Georgia. They're talking championships in and around Stillwater, and momentum sits at a high point in the last 20 years. A downer to open the season would suck away all the energy. ";

spt_FBCQBWRTandems[i-1].body = "
Skills: McCoy's runner-up finish at last year's Heisman Trophy ceremony sums up his meaning to the program. Shipley, with Quan Cosby gone, emerges as McCoy's undisputed favorite target.
Chemistry: Buddies since their boyhood, they hunt together, room together, and hope to lead Texas to a national title together.
Game to watch: Oct. 31, at Oklahoma State. The Red River Rivalry sticks out every year, but all signs point to a Longhorns-Cowboys shootout. The 'Horns scored 28 against the Cowboys last season; they might need a bunch more in Stillwater.";
spt_FBCQBWRTandems[i++] = new Array("","Kansas: QB Todd Reesing, WR Kerry Meier","","","","", "", "", "", "", "left", "Jeff Gross", "Getty Images", "298", "225", "", "", "", "", "");
spt_FBCQBWRTandems[i-1].body = "
Skills: Short only in height among his peers, Reesing figures to leave KU as its most decorated quarterback. Meier might rank as the Big 12's most versatile player - he started eight times at quarterback in 2006, and then caught a school-record 97 balls as a receiver in 2008.
Chemistry: An interesting history here - Reesing beat out Meier for the starting QB job before the 2007 season and has kept it since. \"I was like, 'Wow, this Kerry Meier guy looks the part,\" KU offensive coordinator Ed Warinner said. \"Once spring ball came around, and I saw (Todd) in live competition, I realized how good he was.\" Meier, though frustrated, changed his game to become a Biletnikoff Award candidate.
Game to watch: Nov. 28, vs. Missouri. Reesing threw for four scores, and Meier caught 14 passes (including two fourth-quarter TDs) in last year's 40-37 win. Another Border War victory should give the Jayhawks the Big 12 North title.";

spt_FBCQBWRTandems[i-1].body = "
Skills: A two-year starter, Hall as thrown for 7,805 yards and a better than 2-to-1 TD-to-INT ratio. Pitta, a 6-5, 247-pound tight end, has 142 receptions over the past two years and ranks among the best at his position.
Chemistry: Hall and Pitta are brothers-in-law; each married one of the Gissel sisters (Hall to McKinzi, Pitta to Mataya). \"I always joke with him that he's trying to get more balls thrown to him,\" Hall told the New York Times last summer.
Game to watch: Nov. 28 vs. Utah. Hall threw five interceptions, and Pitta snagged a season-low two balls, in a loss last year in Salt Lake. But the Utes come to Provo this Thanksgiving weekend, and the Cougars want revenge.";

spt_FBCQBWRTandems[i-1].body = "
Skills: Decker has enough speed and athleticism to be twice drafted by the Minnesota Twins as an outfielder. Weber thrives on pocket poise and accuracy on short throws.
Chemistry: Both players share a home state (Minnesota), a major (business and marketing education), and a desire to leave the Gophers a bit better than they found them. \"We'd love to leave with this program expecting to be in a bowl every year,\" Decker said.
Game to watch: Oct. 31 vs. Michigan State. The Gophers will need a lift after back-to-back road games with Penn State and Ohio State. The Spartans will be susceptible to the pass, and a big day for Weber and Decker could revitalize Minnesota's season.";

spt_FBCQBWRTandems[i-1].body = "
Skills: Pike, 6-6, strong-armed, ranks as the favorite to take Big East offensive player of the year honors. Gilyard, with 81 catches and 11 touchdowns in 2008, is capable of more as coach Brian Kelly's offense jells. \"We've been running a hybrid,\" Kelly said this spring. \"Now, we've got the Cadillac.\"
Chemistry: Their bond has formed a classic college football odd couple - Pike grew up down the street from Cincinnati's campus; Gilyard grew up in a drug-infested neighborhood in Florida.
Game to watch: Sept. 7 at Rutgers. Two popular picks to win the league square off on opening weekend. Cincinnati's established offense should own an edge if Pike and Gilyard can connect.";

spt_FBCQBWRTandems[i-1].body = "
Skills: When he's on, Williams can play as well as anyone in the Big Ten - he holds the single-game total offense record for an opponent at Michigan Stadium. Benn's speed and size make him the conference's top deep threat.
Chemistry: Former offensive coordinator Mike Locksley lured both to Champaign as the anchors of an Illini resurgence. Benn said both players have helped each other deal with pressure and expectations as the program flourished, then flopped.
Game to watch: Oct. 3 vs. Penn State. A likely Top 10 Nittany Lions team will bring to Champaign a new secondary, perfect fodder for Illinois' big-play duo.";
