Chick-fil-a Peach Bowl


MMMMmmmmmm. Hankerin' for a fine chicken sandwich? Well before the game, why don't you send out your teenager to the local Chick-fil-a for some southern fried chicken deliciousness on a bun. Yuuuummmmmy. These right wingers sure do know how to make some fast food. And the waffle fries? With some honey mustard? HEAVEN! Matthew, get down here! Daddy's hungry.

This game features the Rebels (no political correctness here) of Ole Miss versus the Horned Frogs of Texas Christian University. Mississippi was in the Title race until they lost at LSU, then to Auburn (losing their star wide receiver in the process to a broken leg), and then losing to Arkansas. But they upset Alabama and Mississippi State. They knocked the Bulldogs out of the National Playoff picture in that last game. So, they seem to have recovered from the losing streak. They call their defense the "Land Sharks."

TCU's coach is a badass. His name is Gary Patterson and he looks like the local bakery truck driver, but he can coach up some athletes. He dominates the Big XII by taking two and three star recruits that get ignored by Oklahoma and Texas and teaching them how to be real football players. His quarterback is a prime example. Trevone Boykin looked like a serviceable QB last year. This year he is just a tick below Mariota and Winston. Look also for a kid named Aaron Green. He went to high school with Analicia at Madison in San Antonio. He transferred back to his home state after starting at Nebraska. He can run with the best of them. TCU always features a good to great defense. They score quickly and they have great coaching. The Frogs should be in the National Playoff but they choked away a big lead at Baylor. Unless they have a melt down like that, or the Big XII is as bad as Texas, Oklahoma, and West Virginia made it look on Monday, the Frogs should win. They are 3.5 point favorites. But, Kirsten picked Ole Miss.
