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). :)
Cajun, even though i’m a bucks fan in columbus, I gotta tell you: that is hilarious!
In roughly a half hour or so, if you can stand to watch SportsCenter, it's #24 Boise State vs. East Carolina in the Sheraton Hawaii Bowl. You may know that Boise State was last year's BCS "little team that could". What you may not know is that one of the Broncos top wideouts, Jeremy Childs, will not play due to breaking "unspecified team rules". I do have to be somewhat jealous of Boise State's current standing though. Here in Boise, it's 30 degrees right now. In Honolulu right now, it's 79 degrees. Feel the envy!
I’ll go ahead and say this right now: ECU’s Chris Johnson is impressive. Quick, great burst of speed on that TD run.
It’s now 10-7 Pirates. Arrrrrr!
And now Taylor Tharp just threw an interception. Things aren’t looking good for BSU now down 24-7 to the Pirates.
There was a nice article in the Columbus Dispatch today about Louisianna football:
BSU, what a name for a college.
It could be worse I suppose, if you’re Ball State you’re screwed either way.
Well, with what’s taught in some colleges these days, the name fits, but I’ll save that for a political thread.
Have to agree with you on that. I will say though, my brother is a student at Boise State and it’s probably one of the few college campi in this country where the conservative/Republican students are more active than the liberals/Democrats are.
A lot of horsepower here
East Carolina’s Chris Johnson has 181 yards in the first half so far. That’s got to be some kind of record.
(Oh, wait, it is a Hawaii Bowl record for yds in the first half) :)
Any of you who decided to watch the NFL game tonight instead may want to switch back to ESPN. It’s 38-31 East Carolina with about 3:50 left in the game. Boise State is driving...
Fumble for Boise State, it’s now East Carolina ball. 1:52 left, ECU leads 38-31
TD Boise State, on oddly enough a Marty Tadman fumble recovery for a score.
We’re tied up!
Right now, Boise State and East Carolina are all tied at 38 with 1:16 left. Hmmmm, Boise State in a close game late in the year, sounds familiar...
Huge play for a first down for ECU. Under review however...
Or not. First down at about the Boise State 23.
Alrighty, 4 seconds left East Carolina calls timeout to set up a potential game winning FG...
Good! East Carolina wins!
There is also a Sunni mosque about 2 miles south on the other side of the highway but it spells nothing (but trouble).
