I complained about the gambling gods screwing me in College Bowl Game Picks IX and now I have to give them their due. Idaho trailed Bowling Green 42-35 with 32 seconds left in the game. The Vandals were getting a point and somehow not only scored a touchdown on three plays, but went for two and got it for a 43-42 Humanitarian Bowl win. Thank you baby gambling Jesus.

I went 2-0 last night (I’m 7-8 overall) thanks to the Idaho miracle and Nebraska’s stomping of Arizona. Pac-10 teams in bowl games.. Hmm. I think I’m noticing a trend.
