Congratulations Utah Utes!

There has been one college football team that I have been rooting for to go all the way all season long. Okay, two teams actually. I always root for the Texas A&M Aggies to go all the way, and hopefully that will one day come to fruition. But this year, I have been rooting for the Utah Utes as well. The Aggies faced the Utes this year in our first game and were soundly defeated. I wasn't really very surprised because they gave us quite a game last year at home on Kyle Field. Seeing that performance, I was expecting a loss this year on their turf because they are definitely an up and coming program under Urban Meyer.

I've been trying to tell people all season long that Utah is for real and that they deserve a BCS game. Well tonight, they all but locked up the first BCS bid for a non-power conference. Technically, it is still up to two more weekends of college football, convoluted computer algorithms and some biased human voters. But to be honest, if Utah doesn't get a bid for a BCS game, the college football world might just revolt.

The good thing at this point in the Aggies' season is that of the three losses thus far, two have been to presumptive BCS teams, Utah and Oklahoma. We won't discuss the third loss, the anomaly at Baylor. In any event, although I am sad to see the college football season winding down, I am glad to see the BCS once again have problems as long as those problems are caused by a deserving team who normally wouldn't get it's due respect. Congrats again Utah Utes!
