I haven't posted anything in a while
I’ve been too busy playing NCAA ‘11. Road to Glory mode is better than I was expecting. RIght now I’m going through it as a QB at Oklahoma State and it’s awesome. Funny how because of it I’m going to start cheering for OSU more.
Thanks Toledo
for costing me 29 points in Bowl Mania. I’m doing worse than last year.

I just want to thank you for turning me on to Boise. I was never a fan until this year.

Five Ohio State Buckeyes to be Suspended
starting… next season… Why not immediately? I guess they need their ratings for the Sugar Bowl, but at the same time, several of those players will most likely enter the draft next year. So what does that mean for them? Could they possibly get around being punished period? I guarantee you if it was a team playing in a non-BCS game, they would be suspended from that bowl game.
Back and Forth and Back and Forth
Kyle, we love you, but please make a play when they decide to put the game in your hands. This is the worst both teams have looked all season.

Las Vegas Bowl
Be sure to tune into ESPN tonight to watch the first bowl game featuring two ranked opponents. Quarterback Jordan Wynn is out for Utah, so they will be starting Terrance Cain in his place. Match-up to watch: Boise’s talented receivers vs. Utah’s awesome secondary. It’s going to get personal, if you ask me. Utah leaving the Mountain West makes me think that Boise would like to...

sportsaccordingtoagirl asked: I had Ohio winning for 10 points. They got killed. :-(
Oh Gosh
My team has to put in a product of Les Miles at quarterback. Please, Mike McCarthy, tell me you taught him the rules. And how to manage a clock just in case.
Bowl Mania
is underway. Game #1 I have BYU over UTEP. Seems like a pretty good pic at the moment.

“I would think no just on the fact that Oregon didn’t need a crappy team missing a field goal to remain undefeated (Remember the Wisconsin v ASU game?)”
Remember the Oregon vs. Cal game?
Question
If Wisconsin would have finished undefeated, do you think they would have jumped ahead of either Oregon or Auburn? I think they would have passed Oregon.
Dave Wannstedt
Is he retiring or is he looking for another job? I hear the Miami (both Florida and Ohio actually) is open.

Pitt hires Mike Haywood
Congratulations to Mike Haywood, he seems to be a fantastic guy. But for Pitt, I find this a bad deal. You have a guy that’s been around at seven programs and only has been a head coach for two years at Miami (OH). Now, he did turn that program from a 1-11 season to winning the MAC conference, but Pittsburgh is a school that is trying to keep up with West Virginia (and now TCU) in...

Those are all really good match-ups. Even in the first round! The only game that has a real potential to be a blow-out is Stanford/Nevada.

My suggestion is “Biscuits” and “Cornbread” divisions.

My Conference Predictions vs. Results
This will also be my 300th post. woo! Now, look how horribly wrong I was on all these predictions I made back in August!
The ACC: prediction: Miami. winner: Virginia Tech
The WAC: Boise. winner: three way tie - Nevada, Boise, Hawaii
Sun Belt: Troy. winner: FIU
Pac-10: UCLA (what was I thinking?) winner: Oregon
Mountain West: TCU. winner: TCU
MAC: Ohio. winner: Miami (OH)

“You are a Green Bay fan? I heard he had a concussion and was still groggy.”
I’ve been a Green Bay fan my entire life. I still have my Brett Favre Starter jersey. All five stripes and all lol. But yeah, he got slammed hard. Not good. Our back-up is Matt Flynn and our 3rd string is Graham Harrell. If he’s out next week, the should start Harrell. Him and Jennings would be....

Rare NFL Post
Green Bay is now 8-5. I haven’t heard an update on Aaron Rodger’s condition yet (he left the game early after a rough hit) and their last three games are against: The Giants, The Patriots, and The Bears. So, it’s possible we fall to 8-8, seeing as we are playing three of the best teams in the entire league. I guess if they can’t beat one of those three, they don’t...

For those who don't know about Matt Szczur's story →
Villanova’s Matt Szczur donated bone marrow to a 14 month old girl to save her life. He gave up several games of his senior year for it. He’s also been drafted by the Chicago Cubs and will be drafted to the NFL this coming spring.

Matt Szczur
I forgot how awesome he was for Villanova. I remember watching him last year. Villanova and App State know how to play. It’s only a matter of time until they move up to 1-A.

This is probably the worst article I’ve ever read concerning the issue. Those who’ve read “Death to the BCS” would agree.

“You really think UConn will beat Oklahoma? It’s not a BCS Game but MSU vs Alabama?”
I think they CAN beat Oklahoma. We’ll see if they can pull it off. I’m sure you disagree, but watching UConn reminds me of Michigan State. It’s not always pretty, but they find a way to take care of business when they need to, which is the key thing.
I’m going with Michigan...

Bowl Mania
ESPN has a fantasy game called “Bowl Mania” that’s set up very much like College Pick’em. It has all the bowl games there for you to choose from and to put them in order of confidence. I made my selections today and was surprised to find out after that I only picked 2 SEC schools to win their bowl games: Tennessee and Arkansas. I might go back through and edit them, but...

History Favors Auburn
From several pieces of data I’ve looked though, the history of the National Championship favors Auburn. Pretty heavily, actually. The past four have been given to an SEC team (Florida x2, Alabama, LSU). I also went back and looked at the history of teams that have played conference championships and have gone on to win the National Championship. They favor quite well. Eight times since the...

lincolnluxor asked: From the article that went with the pic:
"While the selection process would still draw complaints from the teams left out, those schools often would have two losses or significant flaws. In this year’s case, the debate would come down to 10-2 LSU and 11-1 Boise State. Only one would go. Both could point to their failures. It isn’t the same as leaving out an unbeaten squad...
