I grew up in Georgia and my sister went to UGA, so I'm mostly pulling for the Dogs. However, it's ultra cool that former Falcons backup QB June Jones coaches Hawaii, and I generally always support non-power conference teams in the bowls -- Utah a couple years ago, Boise State last year -- so I'd be tickled pink if HI won. Also, I wanna see that dance they do. Is it like the NZ All Blacks?

I'm looking forward to this game. It will be nice to see if Hawaii is indeed for real or just a giant among mediocre teams. I am hoping for the former as it would make for an exciting game to watch and stir up some more controversy as to who should be the national champion.

"I am not saying that LSU is an unworthy opponent all that I am saying is that if the BCS dinosaurs would simply get over themselves and institute a simple 16 team playoff system all of these idiotic debates would go away."

Yes, a playoff system is preferable, but will it happen? Maybe in my lifetime...
