Our favorite former Dallas Cowboy cheerleader, actress Sarah Shahi, proving glasses are rad … nice work people, way to pay down that debt! … Sarah Palin, not a fan of the media … sure, let’s give this nothing town in Alabama $375 million … sickest husband-wife story we’ve read in quite some time … Seattle PI about to be up for sale, or close … a little Cole for this chilly Friday, after the jump … we should be posting an interview in the 3:30 range later today …

Sarah Shahi. Wow.
I could listen to Sarah Palin answer questions endlessly. She’s truly a gift to us all.

Thom Brennaman should stick to baseball.
January 9th, 2009 at 8:27 am
Thom Brennaman doesn’t know the difference between the right leg, left leg, ankle, knee, and a player cramping up

Utah finished 2nd in the AP, means they do not get the consolation trophy.
January 9th, 2009 at 8:29 am
so, where is Irish? i believe he has a debt to pay to mizerle06.
January 9th, 2009 at 8:30 am
All hail the CHAMPIONS, because a loss at home to Ole Miss is obviously better than a loss at Oregon State. This sport is awesome.
January 9th, 2009 at 8:31 am
yes, yes it is.
January 9th, 2009 at 8:31 am
I was wrong about Florida. Oklahoma sucks. Miz won the bet and i cant comment after this for one week.
F KG and F the Celtics. i hope the Cavs beat them tonight
adios chicas
January 9th, 2009 at 8:32 am
you’re a good sport, irish. +1 to you.
January 9th, 2009 at 8:33 am
we’ve already proven that Vandy is the National Champ: Vandy > Ole Miss > Florida and Texas Tech > Texas > Oklahoma

So, wait, when Big XII teams play someone with this thing called a “defense” they don’t score 60+ points a game?
January 9th, 2009 at 8:36 am
I know it’s crazy, roeth. but, that’s the word on the street.

And you thought Pam Ward was bad..
January 9th, 2009 at 8:48 am
WOW. Florida is the truth, don’t be an asshole. I really wanted to see Florida vs. USC though.

Beat a decent team outside of the city your school is in.
Play 11 bowl teams instead of 7.
January 9th, 2009 at 8:59 am
Yep, if only every team in the NCAA would be polite enough to inform each other if they will be making a bowl in the future. Scheduling would be a lot easier.
January 9th, 2009 at 9:01 am
like Georgia (Jacksonville), Vanderbilt (Nashville), Florida State (Tallahassee), Alabama (Atlanta), and Oklahoma (Miami). good idea graniteguy.
January 9th, 2009 at 9:03 am
can you clarify which team you’re talking about because by my count, Florida played 10 bowl teams and beat 9 of them.
January 9th, 2009 at 9:06 am
Watched the game at an Oklahoma Buffalo Wild Wings and a small group of us heckled the OU fans and rooted for Florida. There must have been +/-10 Florida fans in the whole place. Amazing how quiet that place was at the end of the night though.
January 9th, 2009 at 9:06 am
So strength of schedule shouldn’t count when 2 teams have the same record? Only who they lose to? By the way Ole Miss is ranked higher than Oregon St.
January 9th, 2009 at 9:09 am
I was counting Oklahoma. Gators played 14 games and the only 3 opponents who didn’t make a bowl game were Tennessee, Arkansas, and Citadel.
January 9th, 2009 at 9:09 am
seriously, GraniteGuy, who are you arguing for and against here. I’m confused.
/not unusual for me to be confused, but please clarify.
January 9th, 2009 at 9:13 am
This arguement would make sense if Utah replaced USC as who should be champ? Utah beat Oregon State, USC didn’t. How is the Utes fourth in the coaches poll?
January 9th, 2009 at 9:16 am
I’m a Gator. They played a harder schedule than USC, so not really sure why anyone thinks it’s ridiculous for the Gators to be ranked higher.
January 9th, 2009 at 9:17 am
granitguy - ok, thanks for clarifying. you had me worried there for a minute.

I didn’t count Hawaii…forgot they played in a bowl game. you’re correct, Florida played a schedule that ultimately consisted of 11 bowl teams.
January 9th, 2009 at 9:25 am
No worries, I get a little carried away when talking about my Gators. Just tired of hearing how the Gators shouldn’t be #1.
It was really annoying last night when the first thing I heard on ESPN after the game was Corso telling me USC should be #1 and the only reason they aren’t is because no one has seen them play.
How many times were they on national tv? Sure seemed like I saw at least half of their games.

Yeah, but they also scheduled cake-walk teams like Tennessee.
January 9th, 2009 at 9:31 am
Nice little story about Weanie Wells.
January 9th, 2009 at 9:34 am
My comment wasn’t a shot at the Gators worthiness. Obviously they deserved a shot at the title. So did USC. Texas. Utah. Penn State.
It was a shot at this stupid system that arbitrarily determines a champion.
January 9th, 2009 at 9:35 am
true story, ill. I cannot deny this.
January 9th, 2009 at 9:56 am
Fair enough. Don’t disagree with you at all there.
January 9th, 2009 at 1:00 pm
Something we can all agree on: tremendous rack on Sarah Shahi.
