The biggest of big games
Not much is exciting me about today’s college schedule, so I am going to take a pass on the day. That doesn’t mean I’m not excited about something, though – the Kansas-Missouri game tonight is everything that is great about college football.
Thanks to LSU’s loss yesterday, this is the second straight year where we have a huge rivalry game to end the year with the number one ranking on the line for the winner. Kansas is the de facto number one already, and there is a good chance that Missouri would take the top spot with a convincing win. To make this game even more exciting (like it needs it), there are two incredibly explosive offenses, so we should see a shootout, the spread is at pick ‘em so the teams are very evenly matched, and it is at a neutral site so both teams will have all sorts of support in the crowd. I have gone back and forth on how this one will go a hundred times, and I really can’t decide. I think I will be cheering for Kansas, but either way it will be great to see two non-traditional powers duke it out for all the marbles. I likely won’t bet on the game, but I’ll be glued to my TV watching it.
