I think that last year the best player in college football received the Heisman Trophy. This year, I would tend to doubt it.

Ugh. It was like the Buckeyes forgot that there might be someone coming after the quarterback.

Somehow, they were not at all the same team they'd been all year.

It will be a sad day at work, today...

The announcers kept referring to OSU's 51-day layoff, and I tend to believe that that had something to do with their performance. I also think that in college football, more than half the battle is emotional, and Florida came in with something to prove...not unlike Boise State vs. Oklahoma.

I don't know, Wallace. I have a hard time judging a player based on one game. Besides, I doubt that there's a QB in the country who will play well without an offensive line.

I would watch.
If for no other reason than to see what trick plays Boise might have up their sleeve for THAT matchup. ~Cool stuff~

Me, too. I can't imagine that it wouldn't be a more entertaining game than the one I saw last night.

the sad truth is that we will never see anything that resembles that. the Boise States of the world just won't generate enough $ for that to happen. you do remember the post you had earlier about how much BS coach makes vs 'bama?

Can I make a "chick pick?" A chick pick is based on anything except the team's actual record ... like the color of the uniform, the school mascot, or how cute the quarterback is ;-)

I pick Boise State, because the college hosts a yearly jazz festival in honor of my favorite jazz pianist ... Gene Harris.

Yeah, but Florida's got the hottest coach...with the weirdest name! My Little Methodist picked up his Florida cap at the mall last night.

Deborah, your criteria for selection makes just as much sense as that apparently used by the "experts" in deciding that the only undefeated Division I team left in America is no better than number 5 overall. You know those experts, don't you? They're the ones who had OU as prohibitive favorites over BS, and OSU as big favorites over Florida.

Hmm. I guess that's why they play the game. Too bad they won't let Florida and Boise State "play the game."

Julie, my wife and I were discussing that very thing. Urban Myer. Strange. She wondered if he has a brother named Rural.
