    There's no disputing the fact that many of the once-sacred traditions of bowl games have irreparably changed over the past decade. In this, my sixth annual ranking of all 34 bowl games (there were 28 when I started it, including the Silicon Valley Classic), I think you will find that the date a game is played no longer bears any correlation to the quality of its matchup.

    10. Chick-fil-A (Dec. 31): Georgia Tech (9-3) vs. LSU (7-5). A heavily partisan Yellow Jackets crowd is anticipated as the Jackets attempt to pull off their third-straight 400-yard rushing game against the alleged defending-national champions.

    What is there to alleged? I am totally missing something unless it is that this guys is a complete idiot... Think I answered my own question.

    I thought the same thing. Kind of a cheap shot at this years team is the way I took it. Although it has nothing to do with the 07' champions.
