Bourbon Shots: 2011 BCS National Championship Game Edition
The good news is the BCS National Championship Game is finally here and it's guaranteed to at least be entertaining even if the final score isn't close. The bad news is this is the final FBS college football game until at least Sept. 1. That's 234 days. You already know who I'm rooting for. As for a pick, I'll take Auburn, 38-30.

War Eagle!
I grew up an Auburn fan before attending VT. Definitely have to root for the Tigers here, but Oregon has been pretty impressive… I’m not a betting man, but if I was I would stay far away from this one. Should be a great game.
Oregon's amazing offensive playbook.
I wish we had Oregon’s OC. Their playbook is amazing. Auburn has bigger players but look how Oregon compensates by making nifty plays. We had the talent to be like them, just not the playbook :(
Great game so far.
Beamer doesn't want a spread offense.
He wants a ball-control, between the tackles run game. You want a new playbook? You’ll have to get rid of Stinespring AND Beamer.
