who on earth would believe that
Texas could win in Happy Valley in the winter? Seriously? Do people think that Colt McCoy has any idea how to handle, let alone throw a pig skin when the temperature is below 37 degrees(which is the highest the temperature is slated to get this week in state college). He probably hasn't seen temperatures during the season that were below 40. He'd lose his mind trying to throw a cold football.

Don't get me wrong, I know Northeast weather in winter sucks, but to argue your point, Colt McCoy and Texas beat Kansas 35-7 in Lawrence on November 15 when the high of the day was 42 (and lower at game time). I do believe they he and the Longhorns can beat the Nittany Lions in Happy Valley.

I don't necessarily think GT would beat UF in such a playoff game. But if you're going to list FSU as a key win for the Gators, you may as well list them as a key win for the Ramblin' Wreck as well. Otherwise, I like the NFL-style playoff, sans the byes. If you're going to play that week, you may as well make the top seeds play as well to get a couple more teams in the mix.

Beating Kansas in 40+ degrees is a lot different than beating Penn State in freezing temps with possible snow. But that being said, as much as I'd rather see Penn State win that game Texas probably would win in a close one rather than by any sort of blowout.

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

Ranking the New York Jets Historical Helmets

There's no way you can't go with the Helmet they won the Super Bowl in. You just can't. Next, I really don't understand why they don't where the helmet with the Jet as their throwback uniforms. That helmet is awesome. Then I'm going with the Helmets from the 80s because it's the classic feel and the white face mask is 10 times better than the black one. And the rankings continue until you get to... The Titans Helmet. I hate everything about those Titan uniforms. The Helmets are boring and the colors are GOD awful. Navy blue and Mustard? What the hell is that. Disgusting. If they wore those unis when I was a kid I'd probably be a Giant fan, and be much happier with my life in football.
