GO GATORS!

Gators make it look easy

The Florida Gators tonight obliterated the Ohio State Buckeyes to win the BCS Championship Game. "Upset" doesn't quite measure up in describing the No. 2 Gators' victory over the undefeated No. 1 Buckeyes. In winning the title game in Glendale, Arizona, the Gators became the first Division I school to hold football and basketball titles at the same time.

I might have to pull out my orange and blue horn and play this a few times for old times sake.

The Boys From Old Florida over at Every Day Should Be Saturday will no doubt have full coverage. Eventually. When they sober up.

Excellent. SEC rules - the top of the SEC anyway (Florida, LSU and Auburn) - and the Big 10 (apart from Wisconsin) sucks. Would've ever thought that? ;)

Btw, did the Big East go undefeated in bowl play?

Btw, how in the hell after that loss does Ohio St. end up #2 in the post-season polls? People really still think they are better than, oh, LSU?

Gotta feel bad for undefeated Boise State. The only undefeated 1-A school in the country ends up 5th in one poll and 6th in the other.

Well, at least WVU came out okay - 10th in both polls.

This probably isn't the moment for my "collegiate football-factory programs are an abomination" rant, is it? :-)

Of course it is. But when I was there the abomination got us probation, which was no fun at all. Though we did have Emmit Smith.

Geez, all we had was Joe Nieuwendyk and a couple of Olympic fencers.

Oh, the trials of the Ivy leaguer! :P
