January 2nd, 2009 · 3 Comments
Though I only watched portions of the ATT Cotton Bowl today, the parts I watched showed an ugly effort by Coach Mike Leach’s #7 Texas Tech Red Raiders as they lost in Dallas to Houston Nutt’s #25 Ole Miss Rebels, 47-34.

In my second annual college football bowl game predictions post, I had picked #13 Oklahoma State to defeat #17 Oregon, 29-20. Unfortunately, the Ducks had other plans for the Cowboys of my [...]

Put politics aside for the moment and take a look at Panarin’s 2010 map of the United [...]
