DAY TEN: A NEW BEGINNING


It is 8:37 a.m. and 20.8 degrees and pale blue sky. Patrick is still in bed, Junior is in the Fort with friends. [57 degrees and Clear in Clearwater, Florida] This is the day the Lord Made.

Happy New Year to all loyal Americans on the Blogosphere!!


FOOTBALL:



LSU REALLY BEAT THE HECK OUT OF BOSTON COLLEGE LAST NIGHT WOW!



ATLANTA (AP) — One year after winning a national championship, unranked LSU found renewed reason to hope for a return to glory.

Charles Scott ran for three touchdowns, freshman quarterback Jordan Jefferson completed his first nine passes and LSU made big plays on special teams in a surprisingly easy 38-3 victory win over Georgia Tech in the Chick-fil-A Bowl on Wednesday night.


AND VANDY! WOW!!

NASHVILLE (AP) — Vanderbilt used to be called the worst team in the Southeastern Conference. Cellar dwellers. The private school that just didn't belong in a power football league.

No more.

Vanderbilt won a bowl game for the first time in exactly 53 years, with Bryant Hahnfeldt kicking a 45-yard field goal with 3:26 left Wednesday for a 16-14 win over Boston College in the Music City Bowl.

Vandy hadn't even played in a bowl since 1982 — the SEC's longest drought. The victory gave the Commodores (7-6) their first winning season since that season.

Good Luck to USCe, Georgia, who have games today!


Weather for Miami for National Championship game:



Partly cloudy. A 30 percent chance of showers. Lows in the lower 60s. Highs in the upper 70s. Overnight: partly cloudy with a 10 percent chance of showers. Lows in the mid 50s over the inland areas to the upper 50s near the coast.







GO GATORS CREAM SOONERS!

Did you see the barn burner between Mizzou and Northwestern?

I am quite proud of my Home state team. (I was born in Missouri)
