    That's interesting. What an odd quirk.

    What is the one game you'd like to see in the championship?

    Alabama is good but doesn't have that Wow factor other than Cooper.

    TCU would be cute in there because when will we ever see TCU in a football title game?

    Baylor? They'd score, and be scored upon.

    Ohio State? It has become a nice story after the opening loss. They'd be a darling of sorts if they make it and have to use the 3rd-string QB.

    But I'd probably like to see Oregon and its Heisman-winning QB against last year's Heisman-winning QB who hasn't lost a game in college. I know Oregon had a shot against Auburn and blew it but Florida State is a very strange team this season. Who wouldn't want to see the Ducks go up something like 24-7 at the half to see if Jameis can lead one more comeback?

    Same here.

    I get the sense that Baylor sometimes lets up off the gas when they're up 21-0 6 minutes in. It would be fun to watch them in full out go mode against someone that they know they're going to have to score 45 against to win.

    Shocker. And lemme guess. You'd bet the over!

    You could set that number at about 90, and you could still bet the over.

    I am going to keep a running tab next year.

    I'm going to bet 3 games per weekend, and bet the over (whatever it is) on all 3 games. Every weekend. 3 games.

    I bet I am WAY up by the end of the year.

    I'd want Oregon vs. Florida State.

    I pray you remember to do that. Not because I think you'd lose your ass. I think it's entirely possible you don't. But I'd love to find out.

    How much did you lose betting the over in the Auburn-Oregon title game? :)

    Uh.....let's just say it was a substantial amount. Let's just say there were 4 digits in it.
