Sure is.... ....love it

Just thinking....an Oregon/Ohio St. championship game....just like an  old fashioned Rose Bowl game...Pac10/Big10 for all the money, marbles, and chalk.

And Ohio State wins it with a rookie QB, only his second start.

Jim's initial prediction looking mighty good here.

Slainte, this is great for the Pac 12. And NCAA football! Really believe......SEC is inferior to Pac 12 or big 10. Oregon must get their shit together........Ohio State is a great team with depth......Fly up enjoy the game, will pick you up at airport.

Boy, I'd love to, but got family and grandkids here.  
Oregon is the kind of team I would pay double to watch when they are bangin' on all cylinders.  I'm old enough to remember when they played most of their home games in Portland.....that'll never happen again.

Besides you'd have padlock your fridge....remember the sleight of hand beer trick.

Thanks for the link Windrider17. Out of curiosity checked on Quarterbacks. Results are worse than I thought.......QB's because of the draft
the best Qb's seem to get beat up so bad their career is nearly over by the time a great line is there.

Jim Plunkett, Oakland Raiders and Stanford
The last Heisman winning QB that started and won a Super Bowl was Jim Plunkett who won the Heisman in 1970 (Stanford) and won Super Bowls XV and XVIII with the Raiders.

The only other Heisman winning QB to start and win a Super Bowl was Roger Staubach who won the Heisman in 1963 (Navy) and won Super Bowls VI and XII with the Cowboys.

Don't need no lock...as long as there is beer in the refer......no lock required for friends. I remember my father taking me to an -Oregon State football game back in the late 50's at Multnomah stadium.........Downtown Portland......don't even remember who they played.
