Well you got your wish. Washington coach has to be thankful his stupidity didn't cost his team the game, but IMO the better teams both won today.

I enjoyed both games and the trick play by Michigan was pretty cool

I'll enjoy it when sanctions come down on the Cheaters. I can't recall ever
actively "rooting" for Washington, but that ends next Monday- Go Huskies!

They were better than I expected, and Texas worse on defense.

Is Penix Jr. playing his way up the draft boards?

I know he's had injuries, but it looks like he's been durable the last couple years. Has his long college career seasoned him for the pros?

He might not have the highest hypothetical ceiling of all the guys in the draft, but he might have the highest floor. Plug him right in to the right system, and he might flourish right away without having to wait years for him to develop.

Georgia's last two bowl games had very similar final scores.


But, there was a vast difference in the details.

65-7 did not appear to be a true account of the teams' different strengths at the time, but it certainly does compared to 63-3.

While I applaud players getting more rights (or at least as much as gypsy-type head coaches), the result is a very inaccurate picture of how much better one team is than another.

That being said, IMO, FSU opt-out were wusses.

Georgia was at least the third best team...also MO.
