PrintGMAC Bowl
Initial Thoughts: I'd rather be at the Charles Barkley speech than watch the actual game.
Most Awesome Player: Dan LeFevour (285/401 for 3,043 yards, 27 touchdowns, 6 interceptions; 174 rushes for 701 yards and 14 touchdowns)
Most Awesome Sponsor: Red Lobster. Because I'm a big fan of endless shrimp.
The Line: Central Michigan by 4
Over/Under: 63
Chad Millman's blog says: I made a play on the over. Central Michigan averaged 70 plays a game and Troy averaged 73. Anytime you get out of the 60s you got teams playing a lot of offense. Troy ranked 117th in pass defense and gave up a 62 percent completion rate, that was against Sun Belt competition, which means they have a good chance of getting worked over by a team with four-year starters at quarterback and wide receiver.
Accuscore says: Central Michigan 35.4, Troy 31.1
ESPN says: Troy 42, Central Michigan 38
Who you should be rooting for: Whichever team Charles Barkley roots for.

sad to see CFB ending though
after spring ball, it’s a long haul until August

Why aren't they showing the band?
Compared to Fox, this like watching Madden and Summerall….

I think Tessitore and Gilmore do a pretty good job, although Tessitore tends to slobber over the star of the game and call him the Greatest Player in America every week
It's dat Woo Woooooo.
I like it when Gilmore was talking about Joe Namath. “People look at his stats and say ‘was he really all that great?’ Absolutely.” otoh, Furd.
"Let me tell you a story. I was a political prisoner for two years. The instant I was released I ran to McDonald's. I had a Big Mac and a Coke.
It was fantastic."

La Fevour
he’s a little off
"He's so fast, he can turn off the lights and be in bed before it gets dark!" -- Lee Corso on Jahvid Best in NCAA 10.
Did Tessitore just call LeFevour...
…the “best quarterback this conference has seen”?
Better than Roethlisberger? Or Leftwich?
