NCAA Football 2004 week #13
Last week of regular season college football brought on more heartache for Nebraska. They got beat by Colorado. I was hoping for a win. But, this loss translates into first losing season after 43 years and breaking the longest running bowl game streak in the country. Nebrska played in a bowl game for 35 years consecutively. They will sit at home and watch others play around New Year’s time. This is absolutely the bottom. The only good thing about it is that the only way from here is up. Hopefully, Bill Callahan will get the team in better game shape next year with his west coast offense and we’ll at least have a winning season next year.
Texas beat Texas A&M but, they will most likely be left out of the BCS bowls. The chances of Cal losing to Southern Miss are close to nil.
There were no big surprises during this last week. USC and Oklahoma kept their 1 and 2 BCS rankings and that will make them eligible to play for the championship unless Oklahoma loses in the Big12 championship game to Colorado. That is quite unlikely. Auburn got left out of the National Championship game eventhough they played better football caompared to Oklahoma and had an unbeaten season.
Michigan will play in the Rose Bowl. All of the bowl schedule will come out soon. All the best to the teams playing in bowl games. This is the first time that College football season is over for me in November.

enjoyed reading your weekly reviews of the college football season … look forward to it next season …
will leave you with my only post on the college football season (so far) – enjoy!
you got your wish – nd fired ty
Aditya: Good luck at the Fiesta Bowl. Utah is probably not as good as the ranking suggests. They play in a conference with high school quality teams. You guys have a good chance of beating them.
I was glad to see Ty Willingham getting out of ND. He couldn’t have done any better there than what he did this year. ND just keeps hiring and firing coaches without giving enough time. They want to return to glory very fast and are eager to put the blame for team’s failure on the coach. It takes a few years to build a program that is attractive for new recruits and then they can think of a winning football team. If they continue bickering like this, they will never get anywhere. You should see comments on my ‘Fire Ty Willingham’ post. There are so many people fighting over it. It is quite amusing.
