Keep in mind, our QB, Andy Dalton, led his team to the 5A championship.

Colt led his to a 3A.

You decide.

I think COLT has more skins on the wall in Div-1a than Andy does

I have always liked Igloo as a cooler name.

And one is playing for a team who has won a National Championship and the other is playing for a team stuck in Tier 2 bowl hell. You decide.

And that, boys, is why they play the games.

I for one will be cheering "hook 'em" for that day. Although I have not yet officially decided what school will represent my "good team I cheer for" in 2007.

I would wager an uneducated guess that the up front blockers for Colt are proportionaly better between 3A and UT than the up front blockers for Dalton between Championship 5A and TCU. That can make a huge difference in performance.

I can't believe I'm saying this, but I'd love to see TCU absolutely roll UT. Death to the BCS cartel.

FACT CHECK: Dalton lead his team to the 5A Championship [Game]. But they lost to South Lake Carroll which technically makes him a LOSER.

Do you honestly think a little thing like reality is going to cloud a TCU fan's perception?
