2011 Bowl Wrap-Up

A few surprises, some excitement and continued frustration with the BCS...

Utah State: Should've known they'd lose in the end by one point. That was the story of their season.
TCU: Really? A Top 20 ranking and they get stuck with 8-4 La-Tech? For what?
Boise State: Really? A top 10 ranking and they get paired with a 6-6 ASU team? For what? Where's the love? Where's the justice?
Georgia: PLEASE get a special teams coach! You had the win in hand and flubbed it hooking a chip-shot field goal.

Armed Forces Bowl: Wow...BYU pulls off another last-minute exciting win and already have fans excited for next season.

Alamo Bowl: RGIII and Baylor pulled this off in exciting fashion and showed how far Baylor has come and how deserving RGIII is of the Heisman.

Rose Bowl and the Fiesta Bowl: Now that was fun...really fun. Great match-ups, great teams, great games. These showed how bowl games are suppose to be matched up (unlike others as seen in the next two comments).

Orange Bowl: Whoa Nellie! Where was the defense in this game? 103 total points...are you kidding me?


Sugar Bowl: No comment. I boycotted this bowl game. It was the stupidest BCS match-up I have ever seen in all my years and so I refused to watch it. I hope no one else watched it either. And I am not going to buy any...Nokia anything for at least a year...yea...that'll teach 'em.

BCS Championship: ALL BAMA...what else can you say? That was one amazing game. There may be those who think it was terrible but I loved watching the defense stands (on both sides...LSU did force 'Bama to five field goals) just like I enjoyed their previous match-up. Although I was against (and still am) a re-match it was a great game to watch. It was always just one big play from turning around, there was this constant chess match of the coaches going on and the players really have some one-of-a-kind talent and passion and emotion - all the things I love about college football.

So...the SEC wins the BCS for the 6th straight time (note that this was also the first time an SEC team lost in the championship game). Although both teams have 1-loss records (to each other) 'Bama still deserves the trophy given what they pulled off.

Now it's so long until next season...and we are all anxiously awaiting the BCS changes that are bound to be announced in July. How cna they not make changes given the ruckus this season caused? Thanks for reading!!
