Its Monday . . .

Its Monday and I find football season is winding down. Een the pros are going into playoff season. Most of the bowls are done, just a couple to go and college football is done until next season. Lot of controversy all season long, first it was the referee's and their alleged bad calls and now it is the firing of head coaches. It is getting to be like a soap opera, who shot charlie and why. There will be a little carping over the final game outcomes and since we live on the very edge of Fort Worth, why the Horned Frogs are not National Champions.

While I think the TCU Horned Frogs are a great team and have a great coach, they are not a top tier team. They do not belong in the National Champion game being played in Pasadena, California in the Rose Bowl. They are playing in a BCS bowl game in the Fiesta Bowl in Glendale, Arizona which respects their achievements as a football team. So they have their shot at glory. But I do not think TCU can beat either Texas or Alabama on a one on one basis - they just do not have the talent those teams have. Nor do they compete in similar high profile conferences. When TCU has a 80,000 seat stadium and can fill regularly, then they are moving on up. North Texas is building a new stadium, larger and grander, and they will move up.

I believe the whole BCS argument is not worth getting bent out shape about. Those schools had their chance at joining the BCS and did not. Now to cry that it is unfair, well that's sour grapes at best. Those schools have been let in and are playing at BCS level this year. But will they be there next year or the year after. And I think Congress should stay out of it.

Until next year, Geaux Tigers!
