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). :)
We’re rather ambivalent about Florida, but we decided to be SEC faithful this year. It was so much easier to be AGAINST Florida when Spurrier was there.
My f-i-l is a Michigan grad. I don’t think we’ll tell him we were cheering for Florida.
FG Michigan. 31-28 Wolverines with 12 min left.
That’s one difference between how southerners view football and us northerners (midwesterners). We Buckeye fans almost always root for Michigan to lose no matter who they’re playing. I’m a bengals fan and I would never root for the browns if they made it to the super bowl. I doubt that Bear fans are rooting for the Packers in the playoffs. etc...
The food segment is entertaining. A sports bar near me has Grits-n-Shrimp. Yum Yum.
Georgia is in over its heads with Hawaii. The latter is a very fast running team. They really did a number to Bosie back in the confererence championship. Out ran them. So Georgia bulldogs will have a lot on their hands. Would not suprise me if Georgia be saying “no mas” before it is all said and down. The game against TN in which they lost show many weak spots that could hurt the bulldogs. Speed will be an issue here.
Buffalo 1 Pittsburgh 1 End of OT. They are going to a shootout in the wind and snow.
WOOOOOOT!!!!! Buffalo 1 Pittsburgh 0 after first shooters. 2 more to go.
Buffalo 1 Pittsburgh 1 after second set of shots. ... down to the last 2.
Sydney Crosby scores on the final shot. Pittsburgh 2 Buffalo 1 in the Shootout. Final Score :-(
Florida 35 Michigan 31 5:49 left.
Turnovers are the story so far - two Mike Hart fumbles on the Florida 1 yard line, and now Henne throws an interception that leads to the Florida go ahead TD.
Texas Tech trying to mount a comeback in the Gator Bowl. Now Virginia 28 TT 21 3 Min left.
Michigan receivers are playing a great game.
FL just did another touchdown. The Gators are a team that does not want to die trying to win, they want to win. Also I check in from time to time with the FL Gators because a brother, in his freshman year, who is UConn’s D.J. Hernandez’s younger brother from Bristol, CT plays for the Gators.
4:12 left Michigan 38 Florida 35. This might come down to whoever has the ball last.
Michigan is a tough fighting team.
Yep.
Speed is going to be a factor in Hawaii’s favor. Georgia will need to have a running game or it is all over.
FUMBLE Virginia on thier own 5 - Texas tech recovers. WOW! Virginia has totally controlled this game and now Tech is 5 yeards from tying it.
Florida gives the ball up on thier own 25 after going for it on 4th down. THAT WAS A STUPID CALL BY MEYER!
