As I Await An MIA Geek Squad Team To Install A TV



College football edition.

Rah, Rah, TCU.

Almost.

TCU probably needed two things to happen to make it to the National Championship Game: There needed/needs to be a two losses from the threesome of Oregon, Auburn, and Boise State.  The day game yesterday included Alabama jumping up to a 24-0 lead over Auburn which only led to a dramatic comeback in the second half by Auburn for the win. Bad for TCU.  And then in the nightcapper (where I've just seen the highlights of a kicker that will be haunted for the rest of his life), Boise State loses to Nevada in a crazy game. Good for TCU.

That leaves TCU at #3 with Oregon playing Oregon State next week and Auburn facing South Carolina in the SEC Championship game.

So close. Is Jarhead still drunk?

And this is why I've never been a big proponent for a playoff in college football. Every week is a playoff game.

Now where's the Geek Squad? I'm trying to take the misses to Abilene (her alma mater) v. Southlake at the Death Star.
