Ovah-rated!!!

Sooner or later you'll listen to me...
Sooner or later you'll realize that every now and occasion I'm not blowing my own horn...
Sooner or later you will realize that my hatred of Notre Dame (ok hatred is a bit extreme...how bout intense dislike) is based on fact and the sports medias fascination with an overrated team.
The BCS will still send the Irish to a BCS bowl to my chagrin. But after its 44-24 drubbing at the hands of USC, the talk of both Notre Dame deserving a title shot and Brady Quinn as a dark horse Heisman winner are out the door. Thankfully.
USC is now in line for a BCS title tilt with OSU, they have to beat archrival UCLA, a good but not terribly great team. The Trojans have to beat the Bruins in the Rose Bowl next Saturday and the game will be set. Despite the carpings of the SEC champ, USC will go.
Florida keeps on whining that they are in a tough conference and that it hampers their title shot. But my reasoning is, keep winning and no one can say anything to you. USC thrashed Arkansas 50-14 in Fayetteville in September so the Hogs can do nothing but nod dumbly after the got thumped by LSU. The winner of the SEC title game will play in the Sugar Bowl
Boise State is in the BCS mix, period. They won't sniff a shot at Ohio State but they will get their just due and the BCS wonks will say "See everyone has a shot." Yeah, but you better be perfect if your not in the power conferences. And even if you are, you better be a name team...
By the way, Miami (FL) fired Larry Coker after he went 59-15. Despite winning a national title in 2001 and getting the Canes to the title game the next year. Its a what have you done for me lately. The wild brawl against FIU, didn't help matters. Now the spec begins on who gets that job, Rutgers head man Greg Schiano is widely rumored to be the man the Canes are looking at, but he claims no interest. We shall see...
