If yesterday is any indication of what this weekend is going to look like for college bowl games, then you better make some arrangements because you aren't going to want to leave the couch. I was at home with @mrsbozz last night getting ready to watch the Rutgers/Kansas State game, but I wasn't able to find it on TV. Turns out they had pushed it to another channel because the Pitt/Toledo game was going long. Six overtimes long in fact!

With the Christmas holiday in our rear view now, it seems like it was years ago that I last watched a college basketball game. Days have been filled with family and food and football to be honest. Sure, there were some NBA games on the other day, but I think we can all agree the NBA isn't really sport anymore. Heck, I'd even argue that WWE Wrestling is more of a sport than the NBA.

It's going to be a short week for many teams in the NFL as they played this weekend and then they have to play on Christmas day. Thankfully, the Lions aren't in that position and they get a little more time to heal. I think we got a bit lucky this past weekend that we had to play Chicago who has been on a bit of a slide lately. If we had another game against a team like Buffalo last week, it might have been a much different outcome this week.

I want to say it was a pretty interesting weekend in terms of the College Football Playoffs, but honestly, I think things went about the way everyone expected them to. At least as far as the end results are concerned. How we actually got there was a little more dicey.

Despite college basketball season starting to get exciting, we need to remember that there are still NCAA football games happening too. In fact, there is probably so much going on this weekend you might not know where to turn to catch all the good stuff. I can't promise you I am going to give you all the hits, but I will do my best.

This past weekend my wife and I got the chance to drive down state and watch two of our nephews play basketball. It was actually a pretty hazardous drive with about a tenth an inch of ice having formed on the roadways overnight. There was a brief moment when I thought it might be wise to call off the trip, but after we got about ten miles down the road, things started to clear up pretty significantly.
