BBVA Compass Bowl Open Thread

For those in the mood for some manner of football, ESPN has graciously decided to air the BBVA Compass Bowl. We have a battle of 6-6 teams in Pitt and Old Miss. As we tune in, Sunseri just threw his third interception  of the season. Ole Miss ball at the Pitt 21...

Does this game represent the end of college football given the sad, sad teams that we are forced to watch? Why do they put this crap in between the national championshi game and all the other good games we have seen since December 31?

New rule, if you don't have a single ranked team in your bowl game, you must play it before Christmas. One ranked, between Christmas and New Years, with some exceptions for New Years Day. After New Years, only 2 ranked teams should be allowed to play, preferably such that we get good games. Though now with playoffs coming, my rant is null.

Rushel Shell did what good RBs do and wore a virtual coat of people while pushing for a first down, then because this is the 2012-13 Panthers, promptly gets taken for a nice drag on the next inside run. 

Joe Rudolph also called for a nice sack on 3rd and 11. Pitt is at least experimenting here.

Compared to a normal game for Ole Miss, they are being ruthlessly efficient in dissecting Pitt here - only 1/4 of their average per game offensive yardage and they are within a score of their average points per game. 

Meanwhile, Freeze challenges the incomplete pass call on the shovel pass, and it is indeed confirmed. It is also an indictment on throwing shovel passes in heavy traffic.

Tino Sunseri finds himself in a familiar position, desperately hugging the ball, laying on the ground. 4th and 10 coming for Pitt.

Actually at the game, and it was a nice win for Ole Miss.  Hugh Frieze is a very good coach, and I think this is a team and a program on the upswing. 

Heard a great line for all of you guys out there who wonder why various top football recruits have them as one of their potential choices:

A potential football player asked the Ole Miss football coach (their legendary coach Johnny Vaught) about the coeds at Ole Miss, and he replied, "Son, we redshirt Miss America's at Ole Miss!"

Having been to a number of their games this season in Oxford and having been at their bowl game in Birmingham today, I can tell you this is the absolute truth!
