Gator Food

Real quick thoughts about last night’s “national championship”:

1. After watching all the other bowl games I knew it wasn’t going to be an Ohio State blow out, but I never imagined that Florida would explode all over the Buckeyes leaving Tressel looking as confused as I did taking Pre-Calc.

2. This is to FOX. Go get some decent announcers. I know you paid a lot to broadcast the BCS games, but go back to the jar you keep in the kitchen full of quarters and actually pay someone we have heard of to broadcast these games. (And no Chris Rose from “The Best Damn Sports Show that No One has Seen Before” doesn’t count as a real broadcaster.)

3. The Big 10 (11) is not as good as everyone though. Ohio State’s only game was against Michigan and Michigan’s only real competitive game was against Ohio State and maybe Wisconsin. We (I will include myself in this misperception) believed that Ohio State was far above the competition because they beat a Texas team (that we found out wasn’t very good) and a Michigan team (that we also found out wasn’t very good). That’s it, that’s the list and because they play in the Big 10 (11) and the Big 10 (11) has to be good right?? Wrong. Wrong on all accounts.

4. Crisis avoided. Just think if we had a Michigan/Ohio State rematch? We would have all been under the impression that these were the 2 best teams in the country when it is very clear they are not. It would have been the biggest scam in the history of college football. Can you say playoff??
