Absolutely - what a great game that should be! I think Wisco will struggle with Jacoby Harris's deep-passing ability, but I also think Miami will struggle with a back the likes of John Clay. Should be very fun.


The A&M-UGA game last night was weird. UGA winning by so much with less total yards shows how key it is to not turn the ball over...

Heh, so true, there's been even more drama than normal, and if you buy into message board rumors, TMZ may become the lead investigator soon. But it seems like as good a reason as any to point out that Craig James is an oaf.

Anyway, Miami vs Wisky. I think it'll be the same as last year's Champs bowl, only a tiny bit closer. Jacory Harris has the ability to keep the opposing team in the game though.

I think A&M shot their wad in the Texas game. Seems to happen to a lot of teams these days. Get yourself up for the big game of the season, play a lot closer game than you were expected to, and then fail to reach that same level for your next big game which in their case was a bowl game. That is why I would not be suprised if ya'll beat the tigers after they were dissapointed against Bama. That was a major blow to them.

Yeah, it's a nice contrast of styles. Thus far the Flying W's have executed a perfect gameplan against the Cane's speed. I'm listening to music so have to ask whether there is instant replay in this game? The stripes have blown calls for both sides.

Thanks Trojan. We were pretty down on the way back, then I found out my friend died in a plane crash.

That will snap things back into perspective quickly.


Sorry to hear that Viro.

Miamar is done, although they made it interesting late. SA Nole was prophetic in one regard. Harris Fed Ex'ed balls all night.

So glad I was wrong. Way to go Badgers.

Maybe I'm just a homer, but I'm a bit perplexed by the love Jacory still gets. I mean, I see the potential. But he just isn't there yet.

Heh, I call it Al Davis syndrome. People get so caught up in big, fast, tall, & strong that they devalue decision-making and performance in the clutch. Doesn't matter how big that arm is if he can't accurately and consistently hit targets with it.

Yep, nice win for the Badgers. Harris was indeed off, and the Badger D was very tough against the run. And while Clay didn't single-handedly destroy the 'Canes defense, in that Tolzien threw the ball pretty well, and the freshman back Ball ran pretty well too.

But the final score made the game look closer than it really was. Wisconsin had 2 turnovers, one inside the Miami 5 - that game could easily have been 31-7 Badgers.

Texas Tech has made a huge mistake. They must have been listening to their fat little girlfriends telling them they could win without Leach.

Looking forward to watching Zona tonight, the future FSU defensive coordinator in action. Lets go Cats.

I'm mainly waiting for the BCS championship and the Orange Bowl. I have to admit Cincinnati played superb this year.
