College football needs to adopt a playoff system without taking away any of the bowl games. My proposal is that the winners of the 4 major bcs bowls; (rose,orange,fiesta and sugar) play each other in a 2 game playoff. Then, the 2 winners of those games play in the national championship one week before the superbowl. If they did that this year, it would be USC vs LSU for sure. I would much rather see that game than Mizzou vs WVU. That will be almost as boring a game as last year's championship...

Correction on my last post: Phx to ORANGE COUNTY is only $59 each way. You just have to look at different dates and times...

Zach K,
I don't know where you are getting your fares from but I just looked at southwest.com and the fare from phx to vegas with 14 days in advance is STILL $59 each way. Maybe you were looking at us airways' website when you saw the 239 roundtrip fare.

There is an easy solution to your problem. You can check them in 24 hrs in advance online and easily get an a or b boarding pass. Even if they check in at the airport and get a c boarding pass a flight attendant can ask for 2 people to volunteer to move so that the kids can sit together.

Josh,
SC would've had a lot easier time with U-dub if the starting center and right tackle weren't injured in the 1st qtr. That threw off the offensive rhythm for the rest of the game. They still deserve to be #1 because they overcame a bunch of penalties and turnovers to beat a tough team on the road. Games like that are what build confidence for the tough games at the end of the season when most of the injured players will be back. The big difference between LSU and USC is that LSU gets pretty much all of their tough games at home (against florida, auburn and south carolina.) USC plays a ton of tough games on the road (at nebraska, at oregon, at cal and at asu) USC by far has the toughest schedule. If they go undefeated they deserve to play for the national championship. I like their chances because their defense is the best in the nation and the O-line opens up huge holes for the tailbacks. USC vs LSU will be a great championship game but USC will win 28-21.
Fight On!!!

USC and LSU are on a collision course. I'm booking my ticket to New Orleans as we speak....

Josh,
USC was obviously the best team in that game, the "horns" were lucky to have so many calls go their way. Vince Young threw a td pass from his knees that shouldn't have counted and texas fumbled the ball in the 4th qtr but they called it an incomplete pass. Texas couldn't have won that game without the help of the officiating crew.
Brian,
Cal is a good team but I'm glad the game isn't until November. By then, a lot of the guys will be back from their injuries and the freshman players will be better. Oregon and ASU on the road might be a bit of a challenge too...

Kelli,
It doesen't matter who the fans think is #1. They aren't the experts. LSU can think they are #1 now but USC will put them in their place when they beat them in Nawlins. I'm sure most of the country thought OU was the better team 3 years ago but SC beat them 55-19 to win their 2nd championship in a row.
PS- The Pac 10 is a much better conference top to bottom than the sec. (Les Miles will find that out the hard way)

Looks like my prediciton was correct.... USC 49 Nebraska 31 (and 21 of the huskers' points were scored against our 2nd string defense in garbage time) That was a very convincing win for the best team in the nation in a very hostile environment against a very talented opponent. I like our chances to go undefeated this year. The SC O-line and Stafon Johnson were especially impressive. Oh yeah, un-ranked Utah crushed #11 UCLA. Gotta love that!!!
Fight on!

OF COURSE USC IS #1. They will prove it today when they embarrass Nebraska in front of a national audience on THEIR home field in Lincoln. The Trojans will emerge victorious in ALL of their hard fought battles this year. Including the one in New Orleans for the NATIONAL CHAMPIONSHIP. JD Booty, Joe Mcknight and Patrick turner are the REAL DEAL on offense. Their defense is better than most defenses that play on Sunday. The song they will be singing as they march on to victory is:
FIGHT ON FOR OL' SC
OUR MEN FIGHT ON
TO VICTORY
OUR ALMA MAITRE DEAR
LOOKS UP TO YOU!
FIGHT ON AND WIN FOR OL' SC
FIGHT ON TO VICTORY

Everyone on this blog keeps saying that "she was kicked of the plane". From all of the reports I have heard, she was asked to adjust her skirt to be "less revealing" and then she was permitted to stay on the plane and take her original flight. I don't see anything wrong with Southwest asking the young lady to make herself look more appropriate in a public place. I wouldn't want my daughter to dress like that.

What happened to your beloved suns the other night? They had no answer for Kwame Brown. He was dunking on them as if he were a younger version of Shaq. I think we have a good chance to win the next 3 games and steal the series. Go Lakers!!! 8)

Guilty Carnivore,
The schedule will open tomorrow to book through November 2nd. That is over 6 months in advance. Some airlines book further out but their schedules usually change before you take the flight. Southwest very rarely if ever changes their schedule after they release it to the public. I don't know about you, but I would rather wait 1 or 2 extra months to book my flight to ensure that I am getting a sure thing.
PS: Is Guilty Carnivore your REAL name?

Your Phx (never won a championship) suns might be up 2-0 right now, but the series is far from over. I don't know what's worse, the suns fans cheering when Kobe hurt his ankle last night or the fact that they made a shirt with a picture of roger bell clotheslining Kobe in last year's playoffs. At least Laker players and fans have some class.
NBA titles: Lakers 14 Suns 0

Peeps are the greatest candy ever made. Yesterday I ate peeps for breakfast lunch and dinner. My favorite peep is the one shaped like an easter bunny. It's too bad they don't sell them year round. If they did, I would probably only eat peeps and nothing else... 8)
