For the first time since I was an infant, I have paid absolutely no attention to college football this season. I'm not proud of it, but there you go.

However, I found myself drawn to the ESPN page and noticed the bowl scores. I saw that both USM and West Virginia lost, and so I am sad about that. I noticed also that Bama stayed home this year. But the biggest thing that struck me was this:

What in the name of Bear was Georgia Tech doing in a bowl? Don't get me wrong: I've always had a soft spot in my heart for the Ramblin' Wreck (in fact, they won the first bowl game I ever attended: the Hall of Fame Bowl in Birmingham long years ago), but if you've got a 6-6 record, you should be enjoying family time come the holidays.
