UF Rejects (Football 2012)

Normality is restored: Florida beat Florida State in Tallahassee.  Gators drink Gatorade.  Seminoles drink Seminole fluid.  YES!

I'm sad Notre Dame won, but at least the Gators took care of business...should be in a BCS bowl game.  Nebraska won to secure its spot in Indianapolis.  I was disappointed in Rutgers, but as long as they win Thursday, no harm done.  I was more disappointed in Michigan.  AP voters better not name them #1 after Notre Dame loses to Alabama...the Buckeyes played no one, and they played close games with all of those no ones - Cal? Purdue? Ugh.  LAME!

Picks - RUTGERS beats Louisville at home.  Kent State beats Northern Illinois to keep things interesting in the BCS.  UCLA definitely lost the first game to Stanford on purpose to avoid playing Oregon, but I'm not sure they can beat Stanford anyway.  I think they'll play a closer game this weekend, but I still think the Bruins will lose.  Texas loses at Kansas State and the Wildcats secure their BCS bid.  Alabama will beat Georgia.

The question is...if Kent State wins and UCLA loses, does Kent State move into the top 16 - and will they be ahead of a BCS conference winner? Hmm...we may still have a BCS buster in the mix.  And if Kent State goes to a bowl game, does that mean the Sugar Bowl will pick the Big East winner? Because I don't want to see Florida-Rutgers.

On to basketball...Gators have a big one Thursday against Marquette...a rematch from the Sweet 16.  Other games I'm looking forward to this week:

11/27 - UNC/Indiana & NC State Indiana
11/28 - Duke/Ohio Stte
11/29 - Notre Dame/Kentucky
12/1 - Baylor/Kentucky & San Diego State/UCLA

No basketball teams stand out as dominant....could be an interesting basketball season with many surprises!

GO GATORS!!!!
