Georgia might be putting together a run like Bama did maybe even a greater run. They going for a three pete. Bama never did that. Now back to Bama. What the fuck is going on Tuscaloosa. I may be a Bama hater but that haterade stems from the consistent excellence Alabama displayed week in and week out for 15 plus years. They looked poorly prepared for this game. Lacked focus. Something that even in losses you never really said about a Nick Saban coached team. Yes they won but what an underwhelming and uninspiring victory. Down 3 to USF at end of first. Tied at half. Come on. I'm not trying to trash USF too hard but they aren't in the same stratosphere as Alabama.
Alabama has some real questions/problems at the QB position. Really tough to win football games with out at least consistent reliable QB play. Fortunately for them, we have college football free agency and some teams end up loaded at QB so NFL quality players end up transferring. Maybe the Manning boy leaves Texas for Bama. Who knows? I don't see next years QB on this years team.
Now on a different college football subject, how bout Coach Prime and the Buffs. So I get off my flight from Philly and decide to grab some sexy pizza on way home from airport. I hadn't even really been following the games today. Yesterday my brother got married so we've been traveling for the wedding and we spent the day at Smith Memorial Playground and Playhouse in Fairmount Park on Saturday cause our flight home wasn't until 820 PM. This place was one of it not the best park I've ever taken my kids too that didn't cost money and start with theme water or amusement before park. Stuff for all ages. Both kids had a blast.
All right. Aside over back to football. I get out of the car at the Sexy Pizza. I hear some raucous cheers coming from a bar across the street. Joke to Whitney that bar is hopping. Still no clue what's going on. But they got game on in sexy pizza and I finally put it together. CSU is up 11 with like 8 minutes left. Just sacked shadeur sanders. They look like they got game in hand. Sanders gets enough yards back on the next play for the Buffs to convert what looked like a pretty easy field goal. But they down 8 with 7 minutes or something like that to go.
I still have like an hour drive to get us home from airport so I don't actually stop to watch game but follow on my phone rest of way home. They get pinned on the 2 yard line with a touch over 2 minutes left. Things are still looking pretty good for CSU. I trust my team to hold them or force them to run out of time in that scenario most of the time. And hell they have to score twice really cause they need the two point. Sanders takes them 98 yards for the score. Converts the 2 point. Buffs win in double overtime. Sanders has got to be getting some Heisman love for sure. And if the keep winning and he wins the heisman this will definitely be one of those games and one of those drives that defines that heisman run.
Crazy how that game went with all the drama leading up to it. CSU almost knocked Deion sunglasses right off his face but instead Deion is left smiling hat and sunglasses on, triumphant.
