congrats. what a game. You called it. I am not disappointed in Utah at all. I am aghast at how impressive TCU looked. They are the best team in the country right now.

The reality is, Utah's Sugar Bowl drubbing over 'Bama is still fresh in people's minds. It gives the conference a lot of credibility but also tonight's win for TCU.

If I'm UF, Bama or Texas I have no interest in playing this team. But, one of them may have to.

Hey, I just completed my second article on Duke Football, trying to become a Duke Football Featured Columnist. I preview the Top 5 Offensive Players to keep an eye on in 2009. Since I am trying to become a FC, please leave any feedback that you can, what I should do differently next time, things I can do to improve the article, etc. Thanks in advance. I appreciate the support!
