After an extremely successful campaign last season, earning All-Ivy first team honors, Pizzotti entered the game ranked 12th in the nation at the quarterback position by The Sports Network and with an undefeated record in games in which he both started and finished.

...Mbeki's ouster is certainly a victory for the more hardline element among Zuma's supporters, who had been calling for the President's head ever since a judge last Friday threw out corruption charges against Zuma on procedural grounds. Most damaging to Mbeki were Judge Chris Nicholson's remarks that he found Zuma's complaints of political interference in his case to be plausible.
