    Hawaii vs Georgia

    First off, I would like feedback on good online betting sites. Do you just put in your cc info, and if you win, they automatically put it in.

    I like the over in the hawaii georgia game....its 68....what do you all think?

    Mizzou got screwed so badly. Illinois and Kansas have no right being in BCS games ahead of them.

    They really took it out on Arkansas though, yeesh.

    Agreed. Missouri should've been the second Big 12 team. But Kansas is WAY more deserving than Illinois. Illinois being in the BCS is a total joke.

    because of the awful job the BCS did, I'm cheated. There were 5 games going up against each other this afternoon with three good ones.

    Then 2 BCS games get their own showcase so no games can go up against them. The problem is that each game has only one good team.

    The Rose Bowl's a joke, too.


    Georgia vs. USC would've be a tremendous game.
    But no one really cares about the fans. It's the commisioners of the Pac-10 and Big-10 wanting more money and bigger gate receipts. It's my favorite New Year's Day game, but why does it deserve their the own set of rules? Illinois was dressed down today against USC, which obviously deserved a better opponent in the Grandaddy. Oh well.

    In retrospect, Missouri deserved a better opponent or at least showing from Arkansas. A team ranked number one so late in the year and in the Cotton Bowl for the first time in years plays an opponent without a coach and without a respectable ranking all year. This is why I believe the bowl system provides little closure to an awesome regular season.

    you mean the Sugar Bowl. But yes, the Rose and Sugar Bowls are farcical.

    The Fiesta, Orange, and championship games likely won't be that good either.

    Sad.

    What I wanted to see was an 8 team playoff involving USC, LSU, Oklahoma, Ohio State, West Virginia, Georgia, Virginia Tech, and Missouri.

    I'm calling this in the second quarter. Once again, great job by the BCS and the Sugar Bowl. We all hate competitive football games.

    24-3! This game is getting even more exciting! What compelling TV!

    Will Colt Brennan be able to complete 4 passes to the Georgia defense? Stay tuned to find out!

    I don't believe I have watched more than one quarter of any bowl game thus far and it is for the reasons you stated.

    I just no longer want to bother with college football in a big way anymore till there is a playoff system.

    I have the Sugar Bowl on behind me, but I'm not really watching it. I did notice that Hawaii is wearing their silver helmets. It's funny that the equipment managers or student managers had to put all the little skull and crossbone stickers on the helmets. Stuff like that just seems wasteful.

    Brennan has now fumbled a ball which was returned for a TD by Georgia, and thrown two picks. Yards per attempt is 5 and he has thrown for exactly zero TDs.

    During the season, he averaged nearly 9 YPA and nearly 4 TDs per game.

    His QB rating was over 166. Tonight it's 89.

    The Hawaii offense that averaged over 46 points per game is averaging a point a quarter against Georgia and has scored more points for Georgia than it has for Hawaii.

    38-3. Scintillating football.

    Brennan kept turning it over so he got benched in the 3rd quarter. He's on the bench crying. Literally.

    The Warriors shouldn't be ranked in the top 25 after this travesty. And Illinois should be dropped to like 21.
