Yes, we have reached that time of year. The time where not only do we all basically stuff our faces while sitting around and watching football, but the time where the College Football season itself starts winding down.
By the way, did anyone else get a good laugh out of the Lords of the BCS hiring former Presidential Advisior Ari Fleischer to help "Improve" their image?
Things, for the most part have sorted out and roughly 1/2 of the teams in Division 1 who have won 1/2 there games, will be taking a few weeks off before playing in one of the 896 College Bowl games.
So with that in mind...we move on to Part 2 of the Movie...this time with the legendary Telly Savalas in a prominent role....Who loves ya' baby?
So now..."Let's move on with the Countdown"...Thanks Casey
The Dirty Dozen (The Original)...
1) Florida 11-0 (So the era of the Tebow is winding towards it's end. Will Florida be the same? Can the world stand the change? Will the sun shine tomorrow? Will I have Cranberry Sauce with my Turkey? All good questions that the world is waiting for answers on. This Week: Florida 73, Florida State 40)
2) Alabama 11-0 (I officially announce my vote for Mark Ingram as this years Heisman Trophy winner. There, I said it! He's been the best player on one of the best teams. Period. There is nothing snarky or funny I can add. This Week: Alabamie 31, Auburn 20)
3) Texas 11-0 (Oh...by the way. Colt McCoy is winding his college football career down too. Anyone outside of Texas aware of that? The Longhorns have already started practice for the BCS Championship game...a game played in another year. This Week: Texas 41, Texas A&M 18)
4) TCU 11-0 (I still think they should get one of the Championship Game berths. But it will never happen. Ever. I just want to add that despite adding Ari Fleischer as image consultant, the BCS will never get it right...ever. This Week: TCU 51, New Mexico 10)
5) Cincinnati 10-0 (This is the one team ranked in the right place. Already, we are getting tired of hearing that Brian Kelly should be the next coach at Notre Dame. People...NOTRE DAME IS NO LONGER A BETTER JOB!!!! Do you not understand that? This Week: Cincinnati 41, Illinois 7 Turkeys)
6) Boise State 11-0 (Again, they are where they should be. They get props for running the table. They should be in one of the BCS Bowls, hear me Ari? This Week Boise St. 41, Nevada 39)
7) Georgia Tech 10-1 (Normally it would be good for them for having a bye before playing their arch rivals Georgia. This year, it wouldn't matter. They just have to stand and watch...Georgia will lose the game without Tech having to get in their way. Trust me...it will happen...Tech is a good team...Georgia is like a 3 Stooges episode. This Week: Georgia Tech 41, Georgia will be Curly, Larry and Moe and 21 points)
8)Pittsburgh 9-1 (What does the Wannstache have to be thankful for this Thanksgiving? A good defense, Bill Stull and Dion Lewis. What does he not have to be thankful for? Finishing at West Virginia and Cincinnati at home. This Week: Pitt 31, W.Va. 21)
9) Oregon 9-2 (Business taken care of. Win in a week and they get to "Run for the Roses"...Oooops...I mean play in the "Grandaddy of them All". This is a solid team, that most schools wouldn't want a part of. This Week: Bye Week)
10) Ohio St. 10-2 (Can anyone explain the stupidity of this teams season ending? Why? They won't play again for 5 or 6 weeks. Granted they could use the practice, but still...Perhaps that is why the Bucks continually SUCK in Bowl Games. This Week: Practice for the Rose Bowl)
11) Clemson 8-3 (If Mark Ingram doesn't win the Heisman, can C.J. Spiller get the award? Without Spiller, the Tigers are a 4 win team...at best. Really, he is that good. Have you not ever seen him play? Find a way to check him out...great ballplayer and a good kid. This Week: Clemson 37, South Carolina 21)
12) Oklahoma St. 9-2 (Yeah, they have made it back after completely disappointing in the mid-season. They have bounced back because they "Are men dammit!" "They are men and they are 40!"...OK so maybe they aren't 40, but you get my point. This Week: Oak. State 30, Oklahoma 28)
The Bottom of the Barrel.
*Special Mention*- Congrats to New Mexico who won their game last week. Nobody was more shocked than us here at the OSG.
5. Maryland 2-9 (Normally Ralph Freidgen would be looking forward to a holiday that revolved around food. We are guessing not so much this year. This has been a bad team, pretty much all year. Next year, they will be looking for a new coach. This Week: Boston College 24, Maryland 21)
4) Virginia 3-8 (Another one bites the dust, hey, another one bites the dust....buh, buh, buh...another one bites the dust. Al Groh...did you enjoy coaching in College? Another disappointing season in Charlottesville. This Week: Va. Tech 35, Virginia 20)
3) Washington St. 1-10 (Why does this continue? Why do they put up with this team? Why does this team continually suck? Why ask why? Why do I like gravy on my Mashed Potatoes? Why do I like stuffing with the Turkey? Why are Cranberries so tasty? So many questions...so few answers. This Week: Washington 45 Turkey Legs, Wash. St. 1 Big Turkey)
2) Western Kentucky 0-10 (Well, at least they are perfect at something. I really can't go any further here...there isn't anything to say except..."Viva la 2010"! This Week: FAU 31, W.Ky 29)
1) E. Michigan 0-10 (Well, it really hasn't been a good year to be playing football in Michigan has it? No, they picked a bad time to stop sniffing airplane glue? Did they pick a bad time to stop drinking? Who knows? Who cares? This Week: Akron 92, E.Michigan know the Red Zone is for loading and unloading.)
Last Week: 10-3...not bad. This Season: 125-38...Pretty DAMN GOOD!!!
To all who read this...Really, I hope someone actually does...HAVE A HAPPY TURKEY!!! Your Turkey sacrificed a lot for you this year.
