Last night Auburn, unfortunately, couldn't hang on and beat 'Bama. Led by, of all people, Greg McElroy, the Elephants roll tided down field and scored a TD, leaving the Tigers/Plainsmen/War Eagle with a little over a minute left to play. In a perfect world, Cody Burns would have driven down the field and scored a TD to win the game but, alas, horrible clock management left Auburn to attempt a Hail Mary, it was batted down, and Alabama won the game.
So, my last bastion of hope lies in the oh-so pathetic Florida State University to upstate Florida in the swamp.
Take a trip into my College Football Wonderland....
FSU beats Florida.
Florida beats 'Bama in the SEC Championship game.
Nebraska upsets Texas in the Big 12 Championship game.
TCU vs. Cincinatti in the BCS National Championship game. (Not Boise State. Lets forget they exist)
Why not? Why cant we have the little guy in the Big Game? Their are no losers in this situation (except Florida, Alabama, and Texas, but they'll get over it). I'm sure the BCS committee would crap in their expensive pleated pants if this happened but I would bet that both schools would bring in a lot of people to game, and why not? It's not every season that national media outlets and small time bloggers talk about Texas Christian University and the University of Cincinnati as football powerhouses playing to be the best of the best in D-1 college football. Fans of both schools would eat up the atmosphere of the event and I believe that fans, like myself, would love nothing more to watch both these schools play their hearts out in one last game.
Of course, I want a better system of choosing the national champion than a poll that involves a computer, but it's what we have now so I guess I will have to live with it.
I do have my own idea of how to fix college football, and I will write it up soon. Enjoy Gameday!
