And how did my teams do? They did well. LSU easily defeated the Ragin' Cajuns of La-Lafayette 31-3. Charles Scott scored a touchdown.

He didn't score in this game, but he has flair.
After that, I watched Texas defeat Texas Tech 34-24, in a game that was way too close for my comfort. Texas led pretty much the entire game, though Tech scored first, but they never got far enough ahead that Tech couldn't come back.
As exciting as it was, I think the most amazing thing about the game was that they actually showed it here. It's hard to get Texas games in this market.
I'm going to head for bed now. Fun as today was, tomorrow is big boy football. But before I go, here is your Gratuitous Colt McCoy photo.
P.S. I did knit some, too. Photos soon.

As cool as it was to see the upsets and close games, it made me sad ... a college football playoff would be way cooler!
I'm kind of torn on that. I think a playoff would be better than what they have now, but I'd hate to lost the history and tradition of the bowl games. Well, the old bowl games--the ones that meant something, not the gajillion bowls they have now.
If they could come up with a playoff system that would still keep the traditions alive, I'd be all for that.
