The last 90 seconds of 'Zona was ri-donk.
I finally broke down and entered the office pool dispite knowing unacceptably little about most of the match-ups here. I did consult this thread and other resources heavily and am happy to report at 2-0 start.

SDSU and byu both showed solid defense. I was impressed with SDSU's ability to run the ball against BYU (even though they were unable to get into the in-zone) they ran it real well right up to the Red zone. That fourth quarter was fuсking sweet. I like games where defenses are scoring points, and making big plays.
Tonight game is a total guess i know nothing about either team ( after listening to the talk on sports center though i wish i would have picked Ball state but like i said i don't shіt about either of these teams so whatever)
I feel solid about my Fresno state pick. They played well against Oregon (in the first half anyways), And if Washington shows up plays well (like they did against OSU and Stanford) they will crush Boise.
Kind of wish i would have taken East Carolina over LA Lafayette but this one again was mostly a guess.
Records so far

Still alot of games. And alot of games that i am stoked to see next week
^^^ I still haven't got to watch a bowl game this year. But I'm off work starting tonight until January 3rd so I will get to start watching now. And I agree about Fresno St.
I make my livin on corners by turnin n***az into organ donors, fuck diplomas.
I was getting really frustrated watching the UW game. The o line in that first half didn't even play. there was a a lot of dropped passes that should have been caught and alot of open receivers that price was over throwing. Bishop Sankey was fuсking some shіt up though. On one of boise states last possession (when they went for it on on 4th and 1) and they got stuffed behind the line of scrimmage but still picked up the first down was some bull shіt. Lot of missed opportunity for UW.
Was still a good game though
All the bowl games have been pretty good and competitive so far. Stoked about Fresno state tomorrow.
The standings
Vegeta 5-1
Baph 5-1
Straight Crown 4-2
Sooner 4-2
Looks like I'm 6-2. I think the best are still Baph and Veg with one loss each. Some decent games thus far. Looking forward to Miami trip.
Some really, truly awful football on display today. Yeesh. Minny shjts the bed with :60 seconds to go or else I'm 13-1 here.
West Virginia having an absolute meltdown out here. Blinding snow. Interseptions. Fumbles. TWO safetys. Zero defense. This is the worst game they've played in two or three years. Feel bad for these guys. One of the more spectacular falls from grace in recent memory. Really disppointing season for WVU after a phenomenal start, Heisman hype, gaudy offensive numbers, and then a 5-game losing streak with some heartbreaking, last-second losses and now a truly epic crash-and-burn bowl game. Ouch.
