Tom Z's Highly Unethical College Football Gambling Picks: Army-Navy and the Heisman Trophy

Well, the season is over. It ended somewhat anti-climactically with a predictable Kansas State win, a mediocre showing by Florida State against an inferior opponent, and a highly questionable decision that kept Georgia from playing for the title. (Spike the damn ball!) While it sucks that we won’t get to enjoy college football Saturdays for eight more months, at least we get to witness bowl season, one of the greatest experiences in sports. Yeah, college football’s method of choosing a champion is suspect, but you can’t beat having three straight weeks with a bowl game nearly every night. I’ll take a Baylor-UCLA Holiday Bowl over a rerun of “Revolution” or some reality show about screaming old hags any day. Not that I would watch screaming hags or “Revolution” normally. Unless they somehow combined them into one show, where people with bows hunted down the Real Housewives. That I would definitely watch. Wait, what were we talking about? Ah yes. I will admit that this year’s bowl lineup seems weaker than usual, but that doesn’t mean we won’t see some competitive and exciting games in the coming weeks.
