Rose Bowl -- Ohio State v. Oregon

The first of our BCS bowl games is The Granddaddy of Them All. Which is a title I'm really growing to dislike. Mainly because it's usually not that great of a game at all. The bowl refuses to pick teams that are not Pac 10 or Big Ten teams, so they tend to get an inferior team (like when Illinois played in the Rose Bowl 2 years ago over a Missouri team that had a better record and stomped them in the regular season).

But I do think this year's game has some promise. Oregon rebounded from their humiliating (in more ways than one) loss to Boise State to open the year and had a pretty darn good season. This freshman tailback, LaMichael James, is flat out amazing. His coming out party was the best thing that could have happened after LeGarrette Blount's post-game punch. But it's about time Terrelle Pryor really step up and show the world he is an all-world quarterback. Color me not convinced. Yet.

And if you haven't seen the other posts about the Oregon cheerleaders, you would be wise to check them out!
