Title: 2010 BCS National Championship Game - Alabama vs. Texas
Post by: Mike (AZBarbeque) on January 06, 2010, 05:35:58 am
Well, Tommy & I are headed out to Pasadena today. 

We did finally sell the tickets, had we gotten them earlier, I think we would have gotten more, but we did sell them for $1000, so after e-bay & Pay Pal fees, we should be able to give Bernie's Grand Daughters another $800 - $850 for their college fund.  Not too shabby.

Thanks to everyone for all of your support.

Tommy & I plan on heading over by the stadium today to see what is going on pre game and hope to get some great pictures.  Then tomorrow, we are hoping to hit Universal Studios then go somewhere to watch the big game. Should be a great time.

Will post some pictures & recap when we return..

What a great experience.  Tom & I got into town and decided to go check out if anything was going on over at the stadium.  Great call.

We went over there and they were already allowing RV's to park and people to start tailgating.  A day and a  half early.  It was great.  Tom & I walked around, purchased some cool merchandise, hung out with a bunch of cool people from both schools and reallly enjoyed a great time.

Boy does ASU & The Cardinals have a lot to learn.  What a great experience out here.

Oh yea, the 70 degree weather is pretty awesome as well.

It's going to be a great game tomorrow..

WOW, what a great day today.  Tom & I went over to Universal Studios.

They upgraded our Day pass to a year long pass at no extra charge.  Pretty cool.  Then, there was NO ONE here today, we had the entire park to ourselves.  We didn't wait in a single line.  AWESOME....

We went to Karl Strass Brewery to watch the first half.  Then back to the Hotel to watch the 2nd.

It was a great game, but I honestly believe that Texas would have won if Colt had not been injured.  The backup just was not in sync. 

And how Classless of Saban to run up the score at the end.  2 Knees would have ended the game.  I thought that was really Shitty..

Oh well, great time out here this weekend.  What a totally incredible Experience.

THANKS BUBBA KEG!!!!  You Guys ROCK!!!

Pictures to follow when we return.

Great offer Thom and wish I could take you up on it, but Bubba Keg actually flew us out here, so unless the pilot wants in on that lunch, I don't think he will be making an Indio stop.

We will stop by on the next trip through.  ;)

Actually, I'm a big supporter of the Big 12 Conference. But on this one I just felt Alabama was a better team. So Glen, please don't take your posts and go home. ;D ;D ;D

Really, you felt Alabama was the better team?  I totally disagree.  Were we watching the same game?  I wish Colt had not gotten injured as I would have really liked to have seen a True game between these teams.

The Texas defense and for that matter, the entire Texas team was very much affected by Colt going out, it was one of those game changing emotional things.

I still think Texas did an amazing job and overall was the better team.  But, Alabama did win and got the title, so they deserve the praise, but I do think it comes with the footnote that they didn't play a full strength Texas team..

Where the heck are the College Football Playoffs...

Mike, my comment on Alabama was a pregame comment. I have a lot of respect for Mac Brown, but I'm not so sure he wasn't out coached by Saban. Here's something to ponder, was Saban playing rope a dope at the start of the game? He was waiting to see what Texas had, and then ran the appropriate game plan. At any rate, makes for good post game fodder.

Also that game saved my butt from DAL in our picks. I think I ended up right behind somebody I know. ;D ;D
