I knew the guy was smart and I agree with him about a playoff.

Obama Predicts a Florida Victory
By John Harwood

In the realm of athletics, President-elect Barack Obama has become most closely identified with basketball. But he plainly loves sports of all kinds — and follows the action closely.

In an interview yesterday, Mr. Obama predicted that Florida would defeat Oklahoma in tonight’s BCS championship game, especially if its speedy running back Percy Harvin is healthy. But he reiterated his support for a college football playoff system and noted that other schools beyond Florida and Oklahoma can lay claim to being number one no matter who wins tonight.

“I think Utah has a pretty good claim. They’re undefeated,” he said. “I think USC, which had a great Rose Bowl, beat Penn State pretty badly. They’ve got a pretty good claim to being number one. Florida and Oklahoma, I think, both have a claim. Texas, at this point, has got to feel like, ‘Well, we did OK, too.’ I think–I think a football playoff system makes sense. I’ve spoken about this quite a bit, and I think if you look at knowledgeable sports fans, they agree with me.”

5. I just want to see that Jesus-freak Tebow fall on his ass 50 times

just like last year, when Michigan beat him into the ground.

Then I hope he goes on a mission and I never have to hear his freaking name again.
