Important Bowl Game Notes and special edition of THE CHALLENGE

By THE_KNOWLEDGE — December 20th, 2012 at 4:46 PM — 32 comments
Filed under:
  • THE KNOWLEDGE
  • THE KNOWLEDGE CHALLENGE

.
in this post, THE KNOWLEDGE shall reveal the result of the bowl game with the USC gamecocks
.
many is the number of folks who expect Michigan to lose, especially with JTF dismissed
.
these people don't know the most important fact about the game - the fact that THE KNOWLEDGE shall be in attendance
.
yes
.
as THE KNOWLEDGE has pointed out many months ago on these very pages, Michigan has a perfect record in the presence of THE KNOWLEDGE
.
the current record stands at 19-0
.
yes
.
for people that understand THE KNOWLEDGE, this is hardly a surprise. they know that THE KNOWLEDGE will not go to a game that Michigan is slated to lose
.
thus, the mere fact that THE KNOWLEDGE will attend the bowl game means that Michigan will emerge victorious
.
yes
.
the greatest game report ever written (on this blog or elsewhere) was 5 years ago when THE KNOWLEDGE attended his last bowl game
.
that report was titled: "Capital One Bowl Report: How THE KNOWLEDGE soared over a sea of surrounding gators"
.
THE KNOWLEDGE shall provide a game report for the upcoming game as well. the title of this report shall be: "Outback Bowl Report: How THE KNOWLEDGE soared over a field of crawling cocks"
.
yes
.
while most NFL scouts are eagerly anticipating the Lewan Vs Clowney matchup, spurrier will put clowney on the other side of the line inasmuch as he knows Lewan will own clowney
.
this will end up being a benefit for both sides
.
yes
.
another mistake that people make is assuming that this game will be a defensive struggle
.
it will not be
.
yes
.
THE KNOWLEDGE hereby introduces a one-time bowl game edition of THE CHALLENGE
.
predict the score of the game to be awarded the title: co-soarer of THE KNOWLEDGE
.
THE KNOWLEDGE has already provided the pointers for the game to make the prediction easier
.
yes
.

Gardener struggles at first but settles in. Down 19-16 with 6:49 to play Michigan embarks on an epic 14 play 82 yard drive. On 3rd and goal from the six a perfectly thrown fade to freshman phenom devin funchess puts us ahead with :47 seconds to play. The gamecocks make a scary good drive down to the Michigan 35 for a last ditch attempt at a Hail Mary. Newly transitioned corner mr. Norfleet laughs at his size disadvantage and seats away the ball and all rejoice as Michigan pole vaults itself into next years preseason top 15!!
