ESPN Bowl Mania

I tired of being in the top 3 or 4 briefly and decided to take a leap for the bottom.

TCU and Gillespie's defense are giving Michigan their biggest fight of the year and TCU's offense is doing some weird stuff that obviously the B1G has never seen before like HUNH and go go go. None of that damn smash mouth football from TCU.

As for KState and Bama, Kleiman screwed the pooch going for a TD late in the 1st half instead of kicking a FG and then Bama ran away and hid. Then KState comes with the onside kick that failed. Just compounded mistakes from the HC there.

My kid is sitting next to me in his TCU Cheese-It Bowl hoodie and is loving this game so far.

The onside kick didn’t make much sense but going for it on 4th definitely did. They weren’t going to beat Bama with FGs
 
The Big 10 is overrated, at least in this game. We’ll see what happens the next game.
 
I keep waiting to hear Tulsa mentioned. 😂. I hope Wilson gives 100% to TU starting tomorrow.

I'm at a new year's party 🎉 and distracted by the fact that georgia 🇬🇪 isn't doing their part to give us all wilsons' attention tamale.

I went 1-3 yesterday to drop down to 14th with Jester. I don’t think there are enough games left for me to recover some respect.

But a FG would have made it 14-13 and even the TD at the end of the half and you're still within one score. Take the confidence boost and tell your D to make a play after you score. 2 bad calls in a row from Kleiman and it hurt his team to the point they never were going to recover even if Bama made a mistake
 
It wasn’t a case of Alabama winning due to a momentum swing or loss of confidence. They blew them out because they were a significantly better team. K-State was going to have to do better than FGs. And then if you look at the probabilities, to me it’s a pretty easy call. There’s barely any difference between making the FG and failing on fourth down

For a time, things were going well for my nascar drafting strategy.

Turns out my pit crew did not tighten the lug nuts sufficiently on my last pit stop.
