Football Notes

Thanksgiving weekend was a good one for college football, especially for Michigan fans. But there were some other games that spurred some thoughts in my head, so now you get this blog post.
- I am not a fan of rematches for championships. I don’t care if Alabama is ranked second in the country – we already know they are worse than LSU. If you don’t win your conference, why should you be in the championship game? Think of the conference championship games as a playoff round to get into the national championship game.
Let some other team have a crack at LSU.
- If Alabama does play LSU and wins, all that will do is tie the series at 1-1 and we will need a tiebreaker.
If they do play, I will be cheering for LSU. Partly because of the head coaches (+ for Les Miles, – for Nick Saban) and partly because I want the people who decided to put Alabama in the championship game to regret it. I’ve already seen that game; I want a different one.
- Same with MSU-Wisconsin. This is a vote against having cross-division games in the conference.
Hey B1G, add a few more teams to the conference so each division will have 8 members and then we won’t have to contend with this scenario anymore.
- On a related note: since Wisconsin lost to various teams (including MSU) by
Hail MarysHail Marieshail Mary passes, everyone knows that is their weakness.If I were running MSU, I’d throw a few deep passes to start the game. Get ahead early.
- That Michigan game was closer than I would have liked. And OSU falls to 6-6. Maybe they would have done better this year if they hadn’t hired Adam Sandler as their coach.
Not that I want them doing better or anything.

I think the team with the most points should win.
Go, my favorite sports team, go!
Defeat the opponents soundly in the skirmish! Score a goal unit basket!

That’s the spirit!
So what do non-football fans do on New Year’s Day?

I pointed out the Adam Sandler similarity on Saturday to Jeff and Clayton before the game. But I also thought he has a little bit of Buckley thrown in there too.

I totally said the same thing about the Adam Sandler similarity!
