Getting to Miami: #7 USC

Step 1: Sweep the Remainder of the Schedule

No two loss team will be playing in the National Championship game thus if USC loses they are out.

Step 2: Get Lots and Lots of Help

The Pac 10 is not highly regarded this year and thus will not be getting the love from the pollsters, thus they will need at least 2 of the following.

A) Penn St. loses one of the remaining 3 games.
B) The SEC is won by a team with 2 losses. This would mean Florida needs to lose between now and the title game or Bama would need to lose twice.
C) The Big 12 is won by a team with 2 losses and there is no 1 loss team in the Big 12 not in the title game. If OU or UT is left out of the title game with 1 loss they will be ahead of USC already and will probably stay there no matter what.

In essence the chances for USC to make it to Miami are very very very bad as of right now. They need losses everywhere and ASAP.

Lou Holtz is the Homer / Annoyingly Delusional

As my buddy Joe and I always joke, if Notre Dame was suiting up against an all Jesus team, aka a team made up of 55 Sons of God, Lou Holtz would probably still pick Notre Dame to win by a touchdown. So of course this weekend when I'm watching Sportscenter and they have him and fellow old man Corso making predictions, Lou picks ND to beat Michigan. Not that big of a deal, Michigan is a big question mark this year, but of course than Lou says that Notre Dame will win 11 games this year. This is the same Notre Dame that lost to a service academy last year. And just when you thought the douchy homerism was going to end ESPN asks which BCS school is going to be the biggest surprise team in the country. Any guesses to whom it was? I'll give you a clue it was another team he coached. If you guessed South Carolina you would be a winner. Next up on Lou's prediction watch, the Jets win the Superbowl, NC St. wins the ACC, Arkansas dominates the SEC West, Minnesota wins the Big...

Guest Post: Thoughts on Sabathia Signing

I asked Grutt what his thoughts were on the Sabathia signing and I thought his response pretty much nailed it. So here it is. I don’t know. Every year I get a little more disenchanted with baseball. Yea, it’s great we signed the top pitching free agent. But we were supposed to. No team was even in the ballpark of the Yankees offer yet they still needed to jump from the already ridiculous price of $140 million to $160 million to close the deal. Now I hear we are going to sign more pitchers who will also get large contracts and the position player gaps are still glaring. Each new, large contract just adds to the feeling that the Yanks are supposed to win it all. “I think we have a good chance this year.” That is a lost feeling. If they don’t win I’ll wonder why, like there has to be some other reason besides that it’s a sport you can never predict how things will work out and some years just aren’t yours to be won. If they win I will be pleasantly smug. It gets a little more...
