How does the NCAA control that? Huh Grin


The NCAA needs to take back control of their own program from the BCS and devise a simple but fair tournament; one that  doesn't use coaches votes or intricate computer programs to determine what two teams vie for the National Championship.
Most of all, it needs to get rid of the BCS "Committee", the group of money hungry, backroom side deal boosters who don't have the best interests of the Football Program, the schools or the players in mind.

Tiger Woods named honorary captain for Fiesta Bowl

Quote:
Tiger Woods will serve as an honorary captain for the Stanford football team in its Fiesta Bowl game against Oklahoma State on Jan. 2, Woods said Thursday on his web site.

“Cardinal head coach David Shaw asked me to be an honorary team captain, and I happily accepted,” Woods said. “For Coach Shaw to think highly enough of me to be involved in the game and be able to talk to his kids is very special.”

Woods spent two years at Stanford, where he was a two-time first-team All-American. He won the NCAA individual championship in 1996 and was named the Jack Nicklaus Player of the Year before turning pro later that year.

“I’m very close to Stanford,” Woods said. “They’ve done so much for me in my life. Everyone knows Coach Shaw and I had a class together. We go way back. It’s neat to be able to come back and help him any way that I can.”

Woods will open his 2011 season at the Abu Dhabi Championship, which is the same week as the Farmers Insurance Open at Torrey Pines.

“I’ve been to Dubai quite a few times, but never to Abu Dhabi,” Woods said. “I’m looking forward to the experience.”

Woods recently ended a two-year winless drought with a victory at the Chevron World Challenge, where he birdied his final two holes to beat Zach Johnson by a stroke. He has not yet said where he will begin his 2012 PGA TOUR season.


After party!!!

I defiantly agree that they need a new tournament but they have no control on how long a game takes to play...

Start the games on time.  4:00 means 4:00, not 4:20.

Minimize the commercial timeouts.

Halftime is supposed to be 20 minutes.  Don't tack on an extra 10 minutes for commercials as soon as the players come back on the field.

Don't need to review every single freaking play!!!

December 22 - Las Vegas Bowl

Arizona State (6-6)
Boise State (11-1)

Wow, lose one game and get demoted from a possible national championship to a bowl no one ever heard of. Boise State can take consolation in the fact that it's a 14 point favorite.

Grin  I knew you were going to appreciate that one.  First half looked like Notre Dame was going to run all over them.  Then the tables turned 180 degrees second half lol.

Boise got Snubbed again.  Then we Join the Big East in 2013, and now the BCS thinking of taking away "Automatic Qualifying" as we join an AQ Conference.  As we say here in Boise;

ROLL TIDE!!  Haters gonna hate, but that was a good game.  I appreciate a good defensive battle.  The best part was the fact that LSU didn't pass the 50 yard line but once, and after they did they got pushed back behind it.  Shows you who should have won the first battle.

Well, it's getting to be that time of year again!  Sports Illustrated ranked Bama #1 and put our QB on their cover!  Other polls put LSU at number one, but that was before "honey badger" got high.   Grin Grin
