College Football

BCS Championship. LSU and Ohio State. Nothing much I can say about this one. However, I do want to comment on the Sugar Bowl. Georgia vs. Hawaii. I know, everyone last year said Boise State had no business being on the field with Oklahoma. With all due respect to OU, they aren't a red hot Georgia team from the SEC. Hawaii has never seen speed like Georgia has. The experts are saying that Hawaii's quarterback, Colt Brennan, is good enough to pick apart Georgia. He might be, but I don't think he has seen a defense like Georgia's. While they may not sack him they are fast enough to disrupt him. The DBs for Georgia are scary fast, too. Two words that, in my opinion will win the game for Georgia: closing speed.

Rock and Roll Hall of Fame

If I ever find myself in Cleveland again, I will probably visit the RRHOF. They just announced a new slate of inductees. Chicago is not there. Madonna is. Is this right? I don't think so. Granted, Chicago is a shell of their former self, but still, all they did is create and perfect a new sound. If taking rock music in a new direction isn't a qualification for entry, then I don't know what is. All I can guess that the powers that be just don't like Chicago. I think the Sex Pistols had it right when they refused to attend their induction and, in fact, sent a note calling the RRHOF a "piss stain." Well said.

LSU-BCS

Who'd have thought it? LSU in the BCS vs. Ohio State. What a wild, wild season. OSU was a lock as they were the only one-loss team that had a BCS-worthy resume (sorry, Kansas). Any one of the 2-loss teams might go. I think Georgia and Missouri, because they didn't win their conferences, shouldn't go. I know what you are thinking. Two teams from the past that didn't win their conferences went (Nebraska and Oklahoma). However, that was a different formula. If you use the formula they use today, those two teams wouldn't have gotten in.

That being said, I hope we don't get the attitude that since Florida crushed OSU last year, all we have to do is show up and we'll win. Nope, that won't work. OSU is a darn good team. The best thing about us that we have a month off to heal up. Oh, and Les Miles is staying. That is the most wonderful news of all.
