This Saturday is probably the best (on paper) slate of college football action all season. All eight of the Top 12 ranked BCS teams who are in action tomorrow have losable games. This week is either going to clarify things or confuse them to historical proportions. And my team, USC, is
in a huge game at Oregon. Win and they are right back in the thick of the BCS Title picture. Lose and they are suddenly looking for a way to get a Holiday Bowl berth at best.
So of course, where will I be tomorrow? Parked in front of my TV, flipping back and forth and lapsing into a football and beer-induced stupor? Nope. I'll be in Fresno (my hometown) with my wife, attending the largest Civil War re-enactment West of the Mississippi. Because her birthday was this week, and this is what she wanted to do.
The things you sacrifice for the people you love...
