I know most of us aren't huge football fans, but for those of us who went to VSU, we are playing for the national title today. The game is on ESPNU, so good luck finding that, at 4 PM Eastern. I'm actually going to watch at a local bar today, because it turns out I actually don't have anything else to do today. I'll post here how it goes.

That's pretty cool, hope they win. Much like the Jags here, I don't keep up with their feats of strength until I hear something more prominent like making it to the finals at which point I root simply because they are usually underdogs and it's cool to see them rise up once in a while. :thumbup:

49 - 47 VSU. That is our 4th title.

Our defense was non existent for most of the game, but so was theirs. In the end we managed to stop their last ditch 2 point conversion and recovered the final onside kick then just sat on it to run the clock out. Glad we won, but I probably won't be watching another game until we're in the championship again.

Woohoo! Good on the Blazers for getting the win. I saw more than a few posts on FB this morning about it.

Congrats, VSU! Thanks for the info on this, Cap'n. :wink:
