The regular season in college football has come to an end, wild and woolly as it was. Some would like to use it as a legitimate excuse for a playoff system, some modification for the BCS system, or just something to discuss on 3rd dates. Other people, like Norm Chow, have said (and I paraphrase) "I'm against a playoff system. I wouldn't have wanted to see our '84 (byU national championship) team have to prove it on the field."
(In case you were wondering, yes, I have waited almost two weeks to post that). :)
(One more parenthetical note: the BCS Championship Game thread will be performed on a separate thread, since I'm pretty sure somebody is going to post that thread before I get the chance to do so.)
Anyway, as many of you know the bowl games thread works a little different than the regular season threads. Each day I'll ping the list to that particular day's slate of bowl games and you can say something like "wow, West Tennessee A&M Tech is playing in the Dyer's Hamburger Grease Bowl, I think I'll watch". Or maybe you won't, I don't know. But let's start off with...
Tulsa looked impressive last night - even in the rain and wind, Tulsa QB David Johnson was making accurate passes.
Now he’s gone and Tulsa will be getting some new assistant coaches in. I wonder how the upcoming year will be for them.
On a side note, it’s teams like Tulsa, Rice and Houston that make Conference USA football so interesting. Lots and lots of offense.
Not a bad singer, either. He started singing with the family gospel group, the McCoy Family Singers, at an early age.

Ah, yes. I know all of the family. His grandparents still live here in my hometown. Great folks!
