Booing Tiger Woods, rushing the Stanford field - and the game itself was pretty good too.

Did you happen to make it?

PS Unfortunately, the Daily Cal lost the Ink Bowl. We'll hope to reclaim it at home next year.

    Grant-

    Thought of you yesterday when I read about the Holiday Bowl extending it's agreement with Pac-10/Big 12...

    What struck me is that Pac-10 #2 continues to be stacked up against Big12 #4, despite the fact that the west coast has done so well in the postseason of late.

    What gives?? Might make for an article topic sometime. You'd be well-equipped to address.

    Also, thought I'd share my ND thoughts with you before heading to the big game: http://bleacherreport.com/articles/271813-notre-dame-dilemma-charlie-weis-career-tied-to-jimmy-clausen-not-usc

    Take care.

    Clausen and Best better go to NYC.

    Jimmy Clausen has been the best quarterback in the past 240 minutes of college football. Will he be invited to New York this year, or will the Tebow's of the nation get their pre-reserved seats?

    Don't be shy.
