BOWL UPDATES: MIAMI MEETS BOISE. THAT’LL WORK.
Bowl updates! Get ‘em while they’re still lukewarm, along with some
–Miami to the MPC Computers Bowl. Miami players could be surrounded by white powder with no commercial value, which frustratingly enough would be referred to as “snow.” Yay-yoooo! Their anger will only help them.
–Speaking of hurricanes…LSU goes to the Rose Bowl. The Rose Bowl Parade, the Garden Club porno that is traditionally the most soporific hour of television of the year this side of the Urban Meyer Show, could be substantially more interesting this year as beautifully crafted floats get topping of masked, drunk, boob-flashing revelers tossing gold coins at stunned grandmothers.
Mommy! Boobs!
They will likely face Michigan, another brawny, fast team running on foiled championship juice. Your Facemask Inc. stock just soared, because blunt force will be the theme if this holds.
–Ducks v. Mormons in Las Vegas Bowl. Ducks fans thrilled that there’ll be twice as much free booze for them at the casino. Vegas burghers thrilled that bowl games are but a blip in the sinstream flowing through their county limits.
–The rest may be found here, though we would like to TiVo the Hawaii/ASU game in advance for this year’s Scientific Notation Required Bowl.

In a just world, ADs who thought their season sucked so bad that they fired their coach within days after the regular season ended would not be permitted to then turn around and whore the program out for paydays in Boise.
Then again, in a just world, the ‘Canes’ would only be eligible to play against the Rock’s Gridiron Gang.

well, whatever, the ‘Canes will get smoked mercilessly by Nevada, who just got completely annihilated at home by Boise St. by like 89-2. I predict the LSU/Michigan Rose Bowl is going to the best and most entertaining game of the post season. Oh, and a question. Does anyone know why Hawaii plays like 15 games every year? And why teams not in the WAC can play an extra game (this year, a 13th) if one of their non-conference games is at Hawaii? Their bowl game with ASU should also be very entertaining-I predict an over/under of 100, at least.

There’s a special NCAA rule that allows any team that travels to Hawaii not to count the game against the regular season limit. It was enacted to incentivize teams to play UH and basically prop up their program. I believe that WAC teams that travel to Hawaii also get a travel subsidy from UH (that is funded by their legislature).
Similar waivers exist for colleges in Hawaii, Alaska, and the US possessions in hoops, and that’s why most of those pre-season tourneys are hosted there

“SPEAKING OF HURRICANES…LSU goes to the Rose Bowl.”
What……too soon?

I just hope to finally meet in person some of those Northern girls from the “Girls GOne WIld - Spring Break Edition” if Michigan truly is playing LSU in the Rose Bowl.

The mental image I now have of a crazed LSU fan going at a Rose Parade float for not throwing him something despite many requests will compel me to watch no matter how severe the hangover.

Would it violate NCAA rules if we took up a donation to pay Willie Williams to do a weeklong diary during his stay in Boise? Who doesn’t support more Willie Williams diaries? Surely we can do this.

glacial,
Willie Williams transfered away from Miami, IIRC.
He wasn’t getting enough playing time; rap sheet was probably too short, I guess

Ahhh… Time to fire up the TiVo and replay that clip of Corso and the rest of the nobs picking Miami to win the ACC this year.

The way they’re reporting the LSU story, the subtext is “Even if USC loses and Florida wins 48-3, there’s no way the Gators are making the Nat’l Championship game.” Because if the Rose Bowl has a shot at USC-Michigan, I’d assume they’d take it. Sorry, guys.
The good news is that if you win on Saturday, you get to go to New Orleans and kick Notre Dame’s ass. Good times, good times…

Mardi Gras meeting the Rose Parade, jakldawg. The contra image you should get is all of the tape delayed digitally blurred shots of the female LSU fans imploring the guys on the floats “Throw me something, mister!”

Oh, well if “several news outlets” are reporting LSU to the Rose then it must be true.
Nothing will be set in stone until Sunday morning.
Personally, I can’t wait for the LSU/ND Rose Bowl matchup just to see the server crash at MGoBlog.

LSU girls, sadly, don’t show their tits for Mardi Gras beads. Those are girls in town from Michigan or Los Angeles who don’t realize that practice is one of the biggest scams ever perpetrated on women-hood. LSU girls know just how cheap and easy-to-get those beads are.

So, if USC loses this weekend we’re getting the Onepeat bowl?

Michigan girls are just glad for the opportunity to whip their puppies out in February or March, since it’s usually too cold here for that sort of thing.

Speaking of Mardi Gras, there used to be a bar (Nick’s) in New Orleans that had a special carnival drink. It was called “Throw Me Something, You Cocksucker!” Just wondering what the L.A. version might be.
