Musing of the Big Bowl Day

We have a victory! We have redepmtion! We have Maurice Clarett arrested for robbery! You know, as much as I hate to say it, "time and public opinion prove us right, as always". Clarett is the poster boy for the...well, hell, the list goes on. You know the deal, spoiled punk athelete who has NOTHING besides his (lack of) talent to carry him forward, head up his ass, thinking he deserves everything. Now he's got nothing but his gang friends and a criminal record (see: Todd Marinovich, Ryan Leaf). We are redeemed here at Tilam's blog. :)

Charlie Weis won the Eddie Robinson award as the nation's top college coach. Who is against this? A great coach won the award named for a great man and coach. Perfect.

Thew's college bowl predictions:

Cotton Bowl - Texas Tech over Alabama
Outback Bowl - the Australians (both Iowa and Florida suck)
Gator Bowl - VA Tech (much as I hate to root for anyone named Vick) over Louisville
Capital One - Wisconsin over Auburn
Fiesta Bowl - Irish over Buckeyes
Sugar Bowl - GA over West Va (go DAWGS!)
Orange Bowl - Not sure how FSU got into this one, but Penn State will send 'em home unhappy
Rose Bowl - the advertisers and networks - USC will finish in second place, Texas in third (too one dimensional, even though Vince Young is a college football stud who won't amount to much in the pros)

Tilam and I are still (mostly) on the same page, the NFL is still Seahawks-Colts in the championship game. Look out for the Giants and Patriots, they have potential. All others are pretenders...
