The week that could have been.

If only Bobby Bowden could have pulled some magic out at the swamp. Well, as much as I hoped that it would happen, that it wouldn't be the winner of the SEC vs Texas, unless Texas loses to Nebraska in the Big 12 championship, it is going to be business as usual for the BCS and its idiotic computer system.
Alabama looked pedestrian this week and I am inclined to amend my prediction, since Florida seems to look better with each week. I went with Alabama to beat Florida, but I doubt Alabama's offense can score more than 14 points.
Toby Gerhart is a man among boys. He will be responsible for a QB getting the Heisman because there is no way the selection committee can give it to Ingram in good conscious over Gerhart. Gerhart rushed for over 200 yards against the Dame, had three more TDs and threw for one to boot. He has 26 rushing TDs, Ingram has 12. He leads the nation in rushing with 1736, Ingram has 1429. Only one category does Ingram boast an advantage and that is yards per carry, 6.5 vs 5.6, but anyone that watched the ND/Stanford game saw a running back that takes on linebackers and wins. I would love to see the comparisons of YARDS AFTER CONTACT. In fact, I would like to see their YARDS DRAGGING A DEFENDER, or YARDS AFTER THE PILE ON, or HOW MANY DEFENDERS CARRIED ON THE PLAY.

Remarkably similar looking to another famous Cardinal Alum. He looks like a beefed up John Elway.

Mercy Rule: I know that every Thanksgiving since I was knee high to a grasshopper, Dallas and Detroit have played on Turkey Day, something about having a D as your first initial, because now Denver has been added, but does the nation have to be subjected to watching Detroit play? It's okay, I took the time during that game to get myself acquainted with the kitchen and became a cook.

College Basketball: Too early. Teams are still jockying for position and I don't think we will get a clear focus until the non conference games have subsided and major schools start playing major schools. Right now, watching powerhouses beat up on Tennessee Tech, Hofstra, Central Arkansas, Oakland, (Oakland is in Michigan by the way), just isn't that interesting. (These were the opponents of Kansas so far - They also played a rebuilding Memphis.)
Tiger Woods has a bent iron? What is a man doing going out of the house at 2:30am on Friday? Isn't that the time most people are coming home? And why is no one talking? I have a theory, his wife wasn't trying to get him out of the Cadillac with the golf club, but rather she swung it as he screeched out of the driveway and he crashed because of it! Now, I wish no ill will on my favorite golfer, but have you seen the woman the National Enquirer is claiming he was seeing behind his wife's back? SHE'S HOT! However, one does wonder how a mega star like Tiger would be doing with a gate keeper at a Vegas Club.
