As much as I am a major proponent of a playoff system in college football, the bowls are fun. The Holiday Bowl last night was not different. I didn't really care to see who won, I like to watch more for the old Roman Colosseum visual appeal. The Romans would make match-ups for violent curiosity. A bear would fight a lion, a tiger would fight an elephant and so on. The gladiator would be matched up by weapon and fighting style. One guy would have a gladius and armor, the other a trident and net. Thus the Hawaii v. Georgia is a great example.
But I get way off target. This kid just about grabbed the ball in a fumble by ASU on the field of play. Fortunately for him, UT won.
Unfortunately for the kid, he is a red headed stepchild. We know the saying.

I'm a native Arizonan, was pulling for ASU....we finally play Texas in a bowl game and it had to be the Holiday Bowl.
I kinda felt bad for the kid. Maybe it was the Bartman factor. If you watch the tape, which i do not really recommend, of the Bartman catch. There were several hands outstretched as well. How much did Bartman piss off God to have that happen to him?
