Alabama: Deserving of the SEC Title Game?

One of the best games of this past weekend was the #3 Alabama – #9 LSU game for the SEC West title. Whoever won the game would go onto the SEC title game at the end of the season, so it was a big deal for both teams…and both teams fought hard for the win. In the end, though, Alabama came out on top, propelled to the win through the efforts of Julio Jones.
The question remains, though – does Alabama deserve a rematch with Florida? There’s no question that team deserves the SEC West title. LSU is the only other …read more

2009 Midseason Undefeated and Winless

2009 Midseason Undefeated and Winless

We’re about at the mid-season point for college football. I always think it’s interesting to see which teams have gone undefeated so far and which teams have yet to win a game. By this time, most teams have had at least ONE tough opponent and at least ONE game where they had a chance to win. Here’s how the lists look this year:
Undefeated:

Alabama
Boise State
Cincinnati
Florida
Iowa
Kansas
South Florida
TCU
Texas

Winless

Ball State
Eastern Michigan
Florida Atlantic
Miami (OH)
New Mexico
Rice
Western Kentucky

Really, I think the big surprises here are that there are no major surprises. Few people would have put Iowa on the undefeated list when predicting records at this point …read more

College Football Week One 2009 Preview

College Football Week One 2009 Preview

Ah, my life is complete once again. College football, how I’ve missed you. Sure, we have the draft in the spring, but it just isn’t even to satiate my yearning for the clash of helmets on the field.
Week One is usually not very exciting, unfortunately. My favorite team, Penn State, plays Akron, so although this game means they’ll likely be able to keep a high rank, it won’t actually be that fun to watch. Actually, I don’t even think the game is being televised… Maybe I’m selling Akron short. *shrug*
In any case, despite all of the easy non-conference games we’re …read more

Bacardi Silver Mojito Original Review

Bacardi Silver Mojito Original Review

When we moved to Alabama, I moved my ½ of a ½ a gallon of Sailor Jerry’s with us. After unpacking boxes and drinking Diet Pepsi and Rum, my stash of hooch had finally run out. While Tucker watched the kids, I ran [um...drove] to the gas station down the road and took a look at their alcohol cooler. LOTS of beer-not a whole lot else.
Since I’m a fan of Bacardi and I’m a fan of Mojitos, I assumed that the Bacardi Silver Mojito Original would be a safe and satisfying selection.
Oh, dear God was I wrong.
My first thought was …read more

Auburn Recruits in Style

In college football, it’s all about recruiting.
Laugh if you will, but your team won’t be coachable to any kind of championship if you don’t draw talented players. And these days, the best players have their pick of schools pretty much. With the talent comes a winning season, and with the wins comes money. As sad as it may be, college football really is a business, and without cash flow, you get canned as a recruiter or coach so that the school can bring in someone who CAN make the money reign down.
Auburn gets that, so they’re upping the ante. Last …read more

Facebook Craze

Facebook Craze

Last week, at the Heisman ceremony, the announcer made a joke (but a true joke) that none of the three candidate had real Facebook accounts. There’s nothing to stop others from setting up fake accounts in their names (though terms of service have rules against this, Facebook isn’t policed well). Tim Tebow, Colt McCoy, and Sam Bradford, however, don’t use Facebook.
Earlier this year, we saw how Facebook could get you into major trouble. Buck Burnette, a player from Texas, was kicked off the team after posting a racial slur on Facebook following the election of Barack Obama.
Today there’s …read more

Who’s Talking about Tebow and Bama

Who’s Talking about Tebow and Bama

Tonight, let’s be clear: the SEC title game was a matter of Tim Tebow versus. Nick Saban. Tebow showed to be too much for Alabama to handle, and with their first loss of the season, they lost their bid for the National Championship Game with a 31-20 loss.
That means Florida will play against…someone. Probably Oklahoma, but should they lose tonight, it could be Texas, USC, or even an Alabama rematch. Tons of teams want that #2 spot.

And for the record, John Parker Wilson and the rest of the Alabama team have no reason to be ashamed. They …read more

Today’s Important Games

College football season is winding down, but this weekend is extremely important for a number of teams. The Army/Navy game is on right now, but beyond that, there are four games that really matter:
USC vs. UCLA
Today at 4:30, UCS and UCLA meet at Rose Bowl. The Bruins are 4-7 this season, so to them, this game is all about pride. Even if they win it, they won’t be bowl eligible.
For USC, today is a nail-biter. If they lose to UCLA – which isn’t likely, but is possible – they’ll be completely out of the running for the Rose Bowl. …read more
