I'll Always Take Saturday
I understand pro football and the excitement it brings to Sunday. I get the fans dressing up in idiot costumes, the tailgaiting, the rush to set that Fantasy Roster. It's a great thing, pro football. But it's nothing compared to college ball.
From the start of ESPN's College Gameday to that midnight last minute field goal, college games are unpredictable, exciting, heart breaking and ego busting. The underdog has just a good of a chance as any to win. It takes just one game to change a season.
Just ask:
OKLAHOMA
FLORIDA
WEST VIRGINIA
TEXAS
RUTGERS
CLEMSON
PENN STATE
ALABAMA
What a Saturday it was. Now every year there's a guaranteed weekend of the season where we see the mighty fall. This year it seems as if every weekend has had one surprise after another. However, yesterday was Surprise Saturday.
Oklahoma lose to Colordao? No way in hell. Not buying it. That is... until yesterday.
Are you kidding? Texas! Texas! As if UCF wasn't a big enough scare, this one blew up in your face and Kansas State took full advantage of it.
I bet West Virginia won't laugh at the sight of South Florida on the schedule anymore.
Auburn: sweeping in and doing what they do best: beating Florida and ruining a perfect season.
Then there are the ones who managed to sneak by like USC and Wisconsin. They got the win but showed they're far from invincible.
FSU beating Alabama... highlight of the day. Our defense looked so good. They were the factor that allowed us a chance to win the game. Xavier Lee... woah! Consider yourself a fan favorite and I'm backing you as our starting QB any weekend you want. Huge win for Bobby and the boys.
Wonder what that new 25 is gonna look like... See ya next Saturday.
