Boise and the Fiesta Bowl

The game was a couple days ago, and it's still more interesting than the other two BCS bowls before and since combined. The BCS exists, supposedly, to make sure there are interesting bowl matchups and to pit #1 agaisnt #2. But the best game of the year wouldn't have happened last year, because of changes put in this year only under threat of litigation.

Want a recap of the game? Yes, you do.

The columnist's opening thought:

"Pregame - Please don't suck ... please don't suck ... please don't suck ... please don't suck ... please don't suck ... please don't suck ... please don't suck ... please don't suck ... please don't suck ... please don't suck ... please don't suck ... please don't suck ... please don't suck ... please don't suck."

The columnist's closing thought:

"- It didn't have the implications of the 2006 Rose Bowl, it wasn't as meaningful as the 2003 Fiesta Bowl, but that was the greatest final five minutes and overtime, and the greatest pressure play calling, I've ever seen."
