I can predict with reasonable certainty that I'll be there... hopefully in the vicinity of the 50 yard line.

Not a bad way to spend Christmas eve. Luckily we'll also have a full slate of NFL games this year on that day as well.

Imagine how much fun today would be if there were a 16 team playoff and we were awaiting for the brackets to be announced!

I can say with reasonable certainty that the Longhorns will not be able to stop the ridiculously good Reggie Bush in Pasadena.

It may be the last hurrah for USC as they lose both Bush and Leinart to the NFL, but on January 4, they're going to spank the Longhorns and make them cry.

PSU GETS SCREWED

Why should the #3 (10-1) team have to play #22 (8-4)? Why not a higher-ranked team (like Oregon, also with only ONE loss)?

PSU is playing FSU; PSU has the largest alumni body in the country -- this ain't about dollars, it's the 'luck of the draw' (who won which conference) -- and it SHOULD be based on rankings.
