Bowl Season has Begun!

Last night in San Diego the Bowl Season actually kicked off. The 5 games prior to last night were all appetizers to the main course.

What a Game!!

I don't care what teams are involved, it is going to be a touch act to follow. I am not sure if any game will be better. There are possibilities but that was a good game in my opinion.

The player in the picture...Stephen Hodge....is the reason TCU won that game. And no I don't mean that his interception was the clinching play. He had 11 tackles, 3 of them for losses, and a sack and was all over the field on defense and special teams. Easily the most impactful player on the field last night.

A good defensive battle throughout that helped the game live up to the hype. That game was easily the most anticipated game prior to the BCS games and in my opinion it absolutely lived up to it.

TCU showed that they really are a great defensive team and Boise showed they can move the ball on anyone given time.

Would either of them competed with the likes of Oklahoma or Texas....no probably not but that doesn't matter.

Thank you to both Boise State and TCU for agreeing to play this game. They didn't have to. Each of them could have gone to a different game and played against weaker opponents just to get a win. But both programs wanted to show everyone that they were good enough and I think both of them showed that.

The only thing I would change is that stupid interactive Tuesday crap on ESPN. If you didn't see it they were allowing people to send in their comments and had a scrolling bar on the top so you could see all the comments from idiotic fans.

I don't have a problem with the idea but most of the fans that sent stuff in were absolute morons and had no business near a computer.

But other than that it was a great kick off to the bowl season.

And by the way....I can't go winless like the Lions in my bowl picks now because I had TCU!
