Found : I'm Snow

That's Entertainment

Auburn 22, Oregon 19.

Winning field goal with :02 to go.  Goal line stands.  Incredible defense from both teams. What an excellent game!

Sweetening it up is a double W for us.  The field goal makes it a cover, and we pumped in a late UNDER 74 bet.

More later.  Bedtime.  War eagle!

Last team to beat the new national champions?  None other than...sorry, he missed the field goal last New Year's Day in Tampa. 

Yeah, I know...gotta let go of those things.

Championship game bonus : another new Mayhem.  Can't find a video clip yet.

I just read a Washington Post article slamming the BCS as unfair and anticompetitive.  While I agree with some of the points raised in the article to support that position, there is a quote in the article, attributed to Allen Fishel, an attorney representing the Mountain West Conference in its assault on the BCS, that makes the whole argument an exercise in hypocrisy. The quote, about the BCS system: "It's illegal, indefensible, unconscionable, and completely at odds with the values that higher education seeks to promote."

I don't see an alignment of the values of higher education and the world of big time college football.  We will adjourn this case until counsel bases his argument on the real issue here.

Money!

Championship Monday

Yesterday, it was Nevada 20, Boston College 13.  We went UNDER 55 and that's a winner.  The 7 1/2 spread from which we cowered was about as good as it gets (it ended up 8 1/2).

As for tonight's long awaited match between Auburn and Oregon, weeks ago we took Auburn -2.  This one is pretty tough to predict.  Three months ago I told Petey that I liked Auburn this year.  Obviously, they've done well.  On the other hand, we've become Ducks fans over the years.

I hope the game is as good as the anticipation.
