Another year, another bowl pick-off win for Found. It would be nice if this event were a little bit more competitive, but you just have to beat the opponents who are on your schedule, right?
Alright don't worry, I'm done gloating. At least until my celebratory winner's blog post, coming later.
For now, I'll eschew usual analysis of our last bowl game, since there's plenty of that going around, and look at things from a different angle: what are the ramifications if either team wins?
Thursday: BCS National Championship - Alabama (-4.5) vs Texas
If 'Bama wins:
-SEC's reputation further heightened, to a point that a lot of people probably don't want to hear
-Nick Saban vindicated, fully sheds the villain tag that a few still charge him with
-'Bama now becomes Exhibit A for "look what happens if you get a top-tier coach and pay him boatloads of money...he'll win a national title for you in just 3 seasons!"
-Winning with a gameplan of running and defense becomes more attractive
-Colt McCoy graduates with a close-but-no-cigar career
-Could Boise State beat Alabama?
If Texas wins:
-Arguments made for Texas being the best program in the country currently
-Colt McCoy graduates as one of the best "winners" in college football history
-Texas-Oklahoma rivalry gap further widened
-Mack Brown vindicated, proving it wasn't just Vince Young that won Texas' other national title under Brown
-Mark Ingram continues Heisman jinx in national championship
-Questions arise focusing on whether Saban can win the big one
-Could Boise State beat Texas?
Found's pick: Crimson Tide
