So the announcers, they suck big time. Watching the Kansas Game. The old announcer(Brent Musburger) must be going Senile or something. Calling plays and what he saw and what happened were two different things.
Even said Klien was the Heisman Trophy winner. His Partner had to call him out on this.
The other two games at times I'm not sure the announcer was watching the same game as I was.

I so want ND to lose but want a few of their players to do good.
Georgia and Oklahoma State coming on ABC at 12:30 PST.
Lots of games on today, Alabama and Virginia Tech, and LSU at Washington, for two more.

Just this time no Defense.
I know it's free market principles at work, business is business, and money in money. Still, I support free markets, even when it means missing some of the best football of the year. No cable at my house, my choice. I just could never understand why I should pay for a TV reception service and still have to watch all the commercials, or more, that came on the broadcast channels. Again free market principles, if people will pay for it, charge it, I just do not understand why people are willing to pay for it and still have all the revenue producing commercials taking up their time. To each their own.
The BCS will never put a team from a non BCS conference in, what they claim is, the BCS title game. It's that simple and no amount of loud mouthed arrogance can cover it up.
If Texas hadn't botched the play at the end of the 1st half they may have very well won last night. This despite laying down on offense in the first half. Alabama had big first half numbers, but Texas gave the ball up so easy any decent offense could have put up those numbers. With just a little bit of discipline Texas marched right through Alabama and with a little rest between series the Texas defense handled them as well. Then when down and forced to push Texas made mistakes and Alabama scored a couple of give me TDs
Alabama has the excuse they weren't pushing on offense because they had the game in hand and didn't need to take chances. HMMMMMM Then how do they explain the last touch down. The fact is if Saban's team had been good enough he would have gladly put up all the points he could have to silence the critics and give power to the SEC next year. He proved that at the end of the game.
I will give Alabama credit, they beat everyone they played this year, that is all they could do, and they did it. They also beat many good teams along the way. They, like the other undefeated teams certainly deserved to play for a national title.
If the Texas QB had not got hurt they would have destroyed Alabama. Neither Alabama or Texas could have destroyed either TCU or BSU, they may not have even been as good. Would TCU or BSU beat either of these teams, maybe or maybe not, but they were on the same if not a higher level of play and certainly could have.
I didn't see anything on the field last night that BSU or TCU couldn't compete with.
The BCS has produced yet another hollow championship.
The NFL is about the same. The teams I expected to compete are flat, the teams I was going to give another year or two have stepped up.
Even Texas High School football has be great. Looks like the MoJo is back (only Texans understand who that is) and the battles have been top notch.
These are good times for fotball fans,
Who else are the college football fans at GB and who is your team?
to make a good impression on her first day, explains to her class that
she's an FSU fan. She asks the class to raise their hands if they too
are FSU fans. Everyone in the class raises their hand except one
little girl. The teacher looks a little surprised and says:
"Mary, why didn't you raise your hand?"
Because I'm not a Seminoles fan," she replied.
The teacher asked: "Well, if you're not a Seminoles fan, then who do
you support?"
"I'm a Gator fan, and proud of it," Mary replied.
The teacher, now becoming interested in the lone dissenter asks, "Mary,
why are you a Gator fan?"
"Because my mom and dad went to UF and my mom is a Gator fan and my
dad is a Gator fan, so I'm a Gator fan too!"
"Well," said the teacher, in an obviously annoyed tone, "that's not
necessarily a reason for you to be a Gator fan. You don't have to be
just like your parents all of the time. What if your mom was a
prostitute and your dad was a drug addict and a car thief, what would you be
then?"
Mary said, "I'd be a Hurricanes fan."
Happy football season!
You would think they would have the number 1 and 2 teams playing on the air. No Not in my area Got Stanford and Oregon State. While I wish Oregon State would win this, it will be a Blow out and Stanford will win.
QB Going Pro Not returning his Senior year.
RB Going Pro Not returning his senior year But after he got hurt part year I kind of knew he was gone.
Did not see our QB leaving.
Couple of other went pro to include the guy who was suspended from the team.

I haven't heard anything about that. Far as I know the mission is the same.
losing key players
Best Offensive Weapon- RB- David Wilson probably going in 1st Round of Draft
One of Best receivers- David Coales- going into Draft
Best corner-CB- Jayron Hosley- potential 1st rounder
