Looking at the BCS, the top 8 teams will all have to play one another in the next 3 weeks- Ohio/Michigan, USC/Notre Dame, Florida/Arkansas, Rutgers/West Virginia. It's almost like a play-off system this year, and since the BCS does factor in strength of schedule and strength of win, most likely this year the BCS will pick the best teams. It should also lead to some very fun football over the next few weeks.

Got home from work yesterday, put my keys, cell phone and wallet on the table in the house, said sup to my roommate and went outside to mow the yard.
Mowing yard, roommate comes out to leave to go to a play with his with gf.
Finished mowing the yard like 30 min. later, took off my shoes on the porch and went to go inside and door was locked. He locked it on his way out with my keys and cell inside.
I rent my house from my boss. They live like 5 blocks northeast of my house. I walked over there shirtless and barefoot to get the spare key. Not home.
My friend who is married to my boss' daughter lives like 8 blocks west of my house, so that was my next option.
Walked the 5 blocks back past my house and continued on the lonely walk to my friends house who I knew wasn't gonna be home. It began to rain while I was walking.
Got to there house and they weren't home. Went around back and miraculously the garage door was open and also the door to their house through the garage.
Went inside, let their dogs out of the crate, whom I know so they didn't attack me, let them out to pee.
They have no house phone, so my only option was the internet. I got on AOL IM and randomly picked out one of her buddies and said "Yo." She answered back and I said "It's Jeff Peacock." I did not know who I was talking to but she knew me and told me who she was and it turns out I knew her.
I told her to call Brian and Jenny to let them know that I was in their house so I wouldn't have the police arrive. Turns out they were both in the hospital with food poisoning. So now I had to have this girl call my roommate to come back and pick me up.
He was like 45 minutes away from my house. Blah. So now I got online with my gf and was just gonna have her pick me up and go back to my house later that night when my roommate got back. A bit later, Jenny got home and I explained the situation. Fortunately she was drugged from being in the hospital, so she wasn't even phased by me being in her house.
Her brother lived in the house before me and she knew there was a way to get in through opening the back window and unlocking the back door.
She drove me back to my house and I was able to unlock the door through the window and get in.

Hopefully that will not be a very short day of college football for us.
ReplyDeleteRuth-Ann, that is a very interesting/cool point. Assuming Arkansas beats Miss St. it should play out in a very exciting way for college football fans.
