Spare Bowls II



Last year around this time I went on a rant (in this very blog) about how there are to many Bowl games. I pointed out the ones I would eliminate because no one cares,or watches,or attends the games etc..etc..

I thought about finding some way to repackage that but, then I realized there is no point. You can't change stupid! Make no mistake having 34 Bowl games is stupid.

Since I am not going on a big rant this year I thought I would have a little fun with these pointless bowls and the few meaningful ones. I Larry Stanley aka Professor L-Train will pick with my legendary accuracy every single Bowl Game this year! I have no problem putting my hard-earned 16-14 2011 NCAA picks record on the line in this blog.

I know this may seem pointless to you. However there is a logic to my madness. If I can somehow pick these sorry excuses of games, then it gives me a purpose to watch/care. If I screw up my picks then I am sure I'll hear from you larry@bigbadsportsdaddy.com or @bigbadlarry on twitter. Either way now I am sure we all will be entertained!

Come on Spare Bowls, Bring It!

This year it's Spare Bowls vs Professor L-Train in the steel cage main event grudge match. Two of us enter and one of us walk out. If you want to force me to watch garbage,then I am going to find some way to regurgitate it. Two words for you Spare Bowls! Suck it!

Don't worry I didn't forget about the NFL. Scroll all the way down if you want those picks.http://www.blogger.com/img/blank.gif

What if TCU Wins?

I remember that 1938 collegiate football season like it was yesterday. My Horned Frogs were lead by the great Dutch Meyer. TCU's QB Davey O'Brien won the Heisman Trophy and the Horned Frogs were crowned as national champions. All was right for this yet to be conceived Frogs fan.

Fastforwad 72 years and TCU is now the little school that could. Once the mighty dirty Southwest Conference disbanded the TCU Frogs became an after thought. Although they might of had the greatest running back of a generation play there, they were still no big deal. Even after a few good season and beating the mighty Sooners in Norman TCU still had to deal with the "They don't play anybody" argument.


It's no big secret this year has been huge for the Toads! They are moving to an automatic BCS qualifying Conference after next season and they went undefeated and are Pasadena bound! Bring on the Roses and the Badgers!


Now a lot of people have said to me I think TCU has a chance. Hell even Las Vegas has them as the favorite! I have to agree they do have a chance but that is not what this blog is about. This blog isn't going to be the world famous Professor L-Train breaking down x's and o's in the Rose Bowl for you. This blog is going to ask the question What if TCU wins?

I don't think a TCU win has really set in to most college football fans yet. I don't think anyone in the national media is giving them much of chance. The question still does have to be asked What if TCU wins?

If TCU wins they will have made the biggest statement by an at large team since Boise State knocked off the Sooners. Man the Sooners lose a lot(cheap shot check)!

If TCU wins they will be playing for a National title in the next decade.I'm not going to say they deserve to play this year. In all honesty Auburn and Oregon deserve to play for the Trophy this year . If you go undefeated in those two conferences you should be in the title game. Even though one school cheated to get there that's beside the point. Auburn just in case you didn't know YOU CAN'T PAY PLAYERS or THEIR DADS! Ask SMU or USC and see how that works out.

After an undefeated season of beating "nobodies" it's off to the Rose Bowl for TCU to play the Badgers of Wisconsin State.

What if TCU wins? If TCU wins they deserve to open the 2011 season at #2 in the polls. No if,ands or buts!

If TCU wins and runs the table next year the deserve to be in the title game in 2011! Do you know who will be joining TCU in the WAC next year? The Boise State! C-Ya Utah wouldn't want to be you!

If TCU wins they will have proved once and for all you can't judge a book by it's cover or a football team by it's conference.

Go FROGS!
