I was not a conservative when in college, was anti-war for about a year back then.....I became very apolitical after graduation, being amongst the lefties gave me the creeps, plus I couldn't stand the anti-war crowd and its negativity. So I left the left and became non-political.
It wasn't until later that I realized how stoopid I had been in college and how wrong us anti-war types were. Later, I had a good friend who coached one of my sons who came back from the war and was literally spit on and called a baby killer when he finished his college degree.
Listening to him gave me the chills. I am haunted that our country, many people who I brushed shoulders with, did that to those fine young men.
On Saturday, USC whupped the Beavers (the Beavers just couldn't get on top of their game.....:-), the LSU Tigers whupped catpuupy's Dawgs......and shocker of shockers, Oklahoma got absolutely destroyed by K-State in the Big twelve final......it was one of the most lopsided games I have ever seen.....just stunning.
So, we all expected the BCS to end up USC and LSU as #1 and #2 and play each other off. The coaches poll and the AP poll had that ranking.....but wait! The BCS computers put Oklahoma still as #1. Unfrickinbelievable!
The great news is that #1 USC will play #4 Michigan in the Rose Bowl, and #2 and #3 will play in the so-called National Championship Sugar Bowl.
This will make a great ending to the year....two great games, and lots of controversy. I used to think Oklahoma was unbeatable, never having watched them play.....but quite honestly I think the two best teams will play in the Rose Bowl.....it should be an awesome game, I don't think either team has played as tough a game as this one yet.
