Waiting for Saturday...Terrible (trbl)

I can't begin to tell you how excited I am about Saturday. It's my favorite day of the year. Tomorrow is Thanksgiving, which is nice. The Packers are playing which is even better. But Saturday is the best day of my year. Every year.

Why you ask? Well, the most important college football game of the year is played the Saturday after Thanksgiving. Which game is this? Florida/Florida State.

The battle of the state schools of Florida determines in most years who has the best recruiting class in the country. Some of the best high school athletes will be using the outcome of this game to weigh where they are going to play football next year. There will be more athletic ability and talent on that field Saturday than in most college all-star games. Geno Hayes, the once Tennessee Vol for about a month, has even made the game more exciting by his recent statements. If you haven't heard, it's called Google.

It's going to be exciting.

Lest we forget, the Tennessee Vols are playing for a shot at the title. I had a dream last night that we beat Kentucky by 59. That might be a stretch. But again, I just don't see any Tennessee team going to Kentucky with the SEC East on the line and losing. The Vols are without a doubt the most inconsistent team in the land. But something tells me the team that destroyed Georgia, Arkansas, and South Carolina for a half will show up. Les Miles beware.

Oh yeah, the other game. Why isn't Chase Daniel the Heisman front runner? Or that quarterback from Kansas? Let me remind you of something...if Ohio State was undefeated going into the last week of the season, their quarterback would probably win the Heisman. Ever heard of Troy Smith?

Look, I don't know who's going to win this game. I haven't paid enough attention to either of these teams on the field and that's my own fault. But I'm going to go with Kansas. Kansas believes and that's all that a team that is well coached and on a roll needs to do. Kansas also will give Oklahoma a better game than Mizzou would. Keep in mind, we talked about Oklahoma State and their ability to win one big game a year? They have OU this weekend.

Have a Happy Thanksgiving, and a Happier Saturday.
