Over the years, I’ve turned more and more into an NFL fan over a college fan. It’s just how I am. The bowl games, to be completely honest, don’t mean that much to me (outside of the ones that Georgia Tech and Tennessee are participants in; and in this year’s case, given UT sucked, and Tech got killed, my interest was very low from the get-go).

But tonight marks a bowl game I’m very interested in, because it marks the evening that we all get to see just how far Ohio State can fall in it’s annual ass beating of a bowl game.

Tonight’s opponent? The Texas Longhorns, led by Colt McCoy, who’s pissed he finished second in the Heisman race. (Sam Bradford? Really? We couldn’t pick a guy with some straighter teeth?)

The game begins in about forty minutes, so it should be over in about fifty. Tonight will show that Ohio State isn’t just inferior to SEC teams in bowl games, but any team not represented by the Big Ten (and that’s a hard stake to claim, given Penn State’s recent success).

Enjoy the game. My prediction: UT 45, OSU 24. If Terrelle Pryor throws fewer than five interceptions, I’ll be really, really astonished.
