Almost.

Colt McCoy played a pathetic game against Nebraska today, and if he wins the Heisman I will no longer consider it a legitimate award.

Nebraska was literally one second from winning. I really wanted Texas out. Such a dagger.

We were so close to getting either TCU or Cincinnati into the BCS title game, but instead Boise, Cincy and the Frogs will all get screwed as Texas and Alabama go to the big game. I'm sorry, Alabama was very impressive today, but you can't tell me that those other three teams wouldn't have a chance to play with Texas, especially TCU which destroyed two ranked teams and won at Clemson this year.

Once again, college football really stinks. On a day where the No. 1 and No. 2 teams in the country played and there were three other games - UCONN-USF, Texas-Nebraska, Clemson-Georgia Tech - that went down to the wire, all we're left with is a feeling of emptiness as the computers (think about that) will likely put two powerhouses in the title game.

How is that the college football hasn't been able to create a better system than this? I won't consider watching anything but the title game, and even that's a sham, because again, three undefeated, very good teams are left out in the cold. Yawn.

Get a grip












Apparently Notre Dame QB Jimmy Clausen got nailed with a punch he never saw coming after the Irish fell to UCONN in overtime on Saturday.

I love sports, I'm passionate about them, maybe sometimes even to a fault. But hitting a player because you feel he let "your team" down is downright creepy. Are you really so wrapped up in the fortunes of the team you root for that you need to cause physical harm to a player whose performance you don't approve of?

Get a life.

This rip isn't directed solely at ND fans, although my guess would be that they have a slightly higher lunatic rate than the average fan base. This is directed at fans everywhere who can't draw the line between super-fan and super-psycho.

If you're that upset after a loss, go get a hug from your mom or something.
