It's been a long time since I posted, and I just thought I'd post a quick entry on the Predators draft. Last night, I went to the Draft party at the Sommet Center. I chose to wait in the line for the equipment sale over waiting in the JP Dumont autograph line when I got there just after 5, which both didn't start until 6. That was a mistake. The ( Read more... )

With yesterday's win, the Tennessee Titans improved to 8-6 on the season with two games remaining. While the Colts (12-2) have clinched the division, the Titans still have a chance to make the playoffs as a wild card. Right now, Jacksonville (10-4) would get the top wild card spot and Cleveland (9-5) would get the #2 spot. Pittsburgh (9-5) holds ( Read more... )

As unimpressive as Hawaii looked against the worst team in the Pac 10, there's no way they don't make the BCS. Arizona State should pass Hawaii, but BC will fall behind. Tennessee lost and Illinois and Clemson are too far behind to move up.

Hawaii is losing in the fourth quarter, but the big shockers of the day were both Missouri and West Virginia losing. Despite having been #4 last week, most prognosticators think the pollsters will push LSU ahead of Georgia. I don't necessarily agree with that. Georgia didn't play LSU and starting with the Florida game has played like a completely ( Read more... )

Dan Wetzel wrote a column on a playoff for Division I football. I sent a reply that contained a suggestion so good, I thought I'd post it here ( Read more... )

Wow. What a weekend. We've got two different teams slated to play in the NCG than a week ago, but both could lose and we'd have two completely different teams playing. I'm sure you've read all about it. What gets me is all the "will likely play in bowl X." Except for Ohio State who could end up in the NCG and not the Rose Bowl, there's no likely ( Read more... )

The SEC already has 10 teams that are "Bowl eligible," with Vanderbilt still having a chance to join the group. The SEC has agreements to send eight of its teams to bowl games, but with two teams almost certainly playing in BCS games, that number increases to nine. I'm going to make some predictions on the remaining games and where that means teams ( Read more... )

Odd similarity at the end of Chuck and Heroes last night.

Well, Oregon lost Thursday night before I could write about how they didn't necessarily control their own destiny to make the BCS Championship game. Basically, Kansas would overtake them by going undefeated. But that's moot now. It looked like the Big 12 Champion would play LSU, but now with Oklahoma losing tonight, Arizona State or Ohio State ( Read more... )

Most people know that Tennessee wins the SEC East and goes to the SEC Championship game if they win out. Many know that Georgia wins the SEC East if Tennessee loses once and Georgia beats Kentucky, but what if both lose a game ( Read more... )
