It's the most wonderful time of the year...With my Utes winning bowl games and BYU losing so I'll be of good cheer...it's the most wonderful time of the year...
--Ow! Tomatoes hurt you know. Sheesh...
During the regular season, I would normally do my fancy and mildly humorous graphical elements and those of you who would like me to feature their school's games, I would oblige. However, since we've got miles to go before we sleep, I'll re-ping the list as we go along and include said graphics. Sound like a deal? Excellent.
Tomorrow the fun will begin. (For me, at least). :)
Create a playoff system NCAA! With that said, I pick LSU to win the National Championship. I also hope that Hawaii defeats Georgia, so that they will finish 13-0 and yet be nowhere near getting the National Championship.
Geaux Tigers! Beat the Buckeyes!
Now that we have Bo the whole state of Nebraska..(Well most of it) is routing for you guys...We want you to shut them out of the end zone!
Good luck!
S.....D......S......U
S-D-S-U Aztecs Fight!
Ooooops. Maybe next decade.
It’ll be a joke if a two loss team wins the national championship - a National Title with an asterisk
Who do you think should be playing? Personally, I thought UGa got majorly hosed in the final coaches’ poll, and that they should’ve been playing. As it is, I think they’re going to pound Hawai’i into granules of sand and send them back to the beach. That’s JMHO, though.
And how ‘bout them ‘Noles! Going to play UK-Y 20 players short...as if we had a chance before!
Sheesh!
LOL - *Illinois* - LOL
That’s all I have to say about that.
It isn’t going to happen, but if Hawaii were to blow out Georgia, and the Annointed Teams in the Championship game play lackluster, could Hawaii get a few first place votes from the AP?
I think you’re right. I’ve seen a lot of Hawaii over the past 2-3 seasons. They are a completely different team away from the Islands.
This isn’t like Boise State last year who had a more balanced offense and a defense that could hold their own—for a while anyway. Hawaii will get exposed if they can’t figure out UGA’s defense.
I think at a minimum, UGa should be playing USC as those are the two teams who finished the strongest. Then if LSU plays ugly and wins a close one, it sets up another possible split title (as you had for the 2003 season) if UGa beats SC.
My preferred outcome is that the Buckeyes just take care of business and win - I don’t want to take anything away from a talented LSU team. I just want to see Les Miles eat some well deserved humble pie.
Somehow UConn ends up in vehicle related bowls. First it was the Motor City Bowl and now the Meineke Car Care Bowl Against Wake Forest. Oh well, Go UCONN!!!!!!!!!!!!
I’ll take some pics of your team for you, since you can’t make it.
I’ll be on the Wake side, though...
(C8
So you’d have TWO 2-loss teams playing for the title? Ohio State and Oklahoma be danged, huh? Interesting.
Though I’m not a big Les Miles fan, I hate (H-A-T-E) the Big 10 (Really, I guess I only hate OSU and Michigan, but they’re the main representatives), so I’m rooting for LSU in this one.
WVU has announced that associate head coach Bill Stewart will serve as interim football coach for the Mountaineers through the Fiesta Bowl.
The bowl games start tomorrow. You ought to at least post the first few matchups.
San Diego County Credit Union Bowl
Navy vs. Utah
December 20
R+L Carriers Bowl
Memphis vs. Florida Atlantic
December 21
Papajohns.com Bowl
USM v. Cincinatti
December 22
New Mexico (too insignificant to obtain a title sponsor) Bowl
Nevada v. NM
December 22
Pioneer (Are they still in business? Used to be known for record players and reel to reel tape decks.) Bowl
UCLA v. BYU
December 22
I’m picking Oklahoma to be the national champion.
I’ll re-ping the day of each game. It’ll be easier for me, since I am trying to do this and I have an actual date on Saturday night.
Wish me luck everyone.
