Outrageous Picks

Neither the Colts nor the Saints will reach the Super Bowl. The Colts in the AFC will lose to the Chargers and the Saints will lose to the Vikings

Somethings to make you wonder...

Villanova, playing in the FCS Championship game, defeated Temple, who is going to a bowl in FBS

Where the hell is Graham Harrell, the career FBS touchdown leader?

On the BCS and Heisman

Heres a post I made on the CN Forums but didnt post here:

(December 9, 2009)

The BCS disgusts me.
So they had to let Boise State and TCU in, since Texas beat Nebraska and Oklahoma beat Oklahoma State. So to avoid and upset of a major team like last year when Alabama lost to undefeated Utah in the Sugar Bowl, they pit TCU against Boise State. Its like inviting the more popular younger kids to the party but making them eat outside.

Lets keep the bowl games but, the top 8 teams should play in a playoff.

On the Heisman, its become 50% preseason popularity, 25% if you play on an undefeated team, and 25% on how well your season has gone. Both Tebow and McCoy, by their standards, have had subpar seasons. Toby Gerhart has had a better season than Mark Ingram. Suh is a freak at defensive tackle, but can you ever see the football elite choosing a tackle as the best player in the nation?

Case Keenum has had the best year of all offensive players. Something seems wrong that he isnt a finalist. One week he is a finalist, and then he throws for 570 yards and three touchdowns and hes not a finalist? Its like he was demoted because he threw for 570 yards. Thats more passing yards than Tebow gets in 3 games.

The championship game should be Texas Christian VS Alabama. The University of Texas is only in because of preseason hype, not performance on the field.
