Lisa's Bio

Lisa Horne is a football addict who actually understands the nuances of the x's and o's of football. She is currently going into her second year as a contracted college football sportswriter for FOXSports.com.

She has been published and quoted on many websites, including MSN.com, SI.com, Deadspin.com, BCSfootball.org, MSNBC.com, ESPN.com, and Steroid Nation. She has done live college football commentary for FOXSports.com and also has a blog, "Straight Talk From the Left Coast."

Lisa was just ten years old when she told her daddy that she would be the first woman to cover the Super Bowl, and she ended up fulfilling her ultimate wish by doing live commentary of Super Bowl XLII on February 3rd, 2008 for MSN.com and FOXSports.com.

By the way, it's true. Chicks dig the long ball.

I refuse to comment on this one because I don't think conferences should be evalulated unless every team plays each other and other conferences. It's lame to say once conference is the best. Conferences don't win championships, teams do.

    Hey Lisa,

    I was reading the attacks on Whitlock's piece re Pacman and, as I really respect the man, I appreciated your comments. It's hilarious to read people attack him for jumping to conclusions, being unfair, etc. and then cite Jerry Jones' comments as the proof that everything is cool, that Pacman didn't do anything wrong. I'm not saying Whitlock's right and Jones is wrong, but who is more likely to be objective between those two?

    As for my thoughts on Whitlock:

    If you've got the time, great. If not, no worries. Take it easy.
