Weekend Observations
First off, la Sportschica would like to toot her own horn; each one of my picks turned out to be right! Even the Colorado Buffalo pick was dead on. Gotta love it!

As the biggest Miami Hurricane fan ever, la Chica is embarrassed after Saturday night's Orange Bowl brawl with FIU. Here's the thing, I'm going to sound like a child for one second: they started it! FIU is not a football school, their players are typically guys who could not get into any of the top 3 Florida football schools and that's okay but don't take your bitterness out by starting fights on the field.

That said, even though these jackasses came into the Orange Bowl and started a mess, it's no reason for UM players to behave and react the way they did. Miami is not "that program" anymore. UM fans want the swagger back but not that kind. That's all la Chica is going to say on the subject.

The first BCS standings came out yesterday, here's the top 5:
1) Ohio State .973
2) USC .955
3) Michigan .934
4) Auburn .747
5) West Virginia .744

Wow, that's a huge percentage difference between the top 3 and 4 and 5. It's still early though, peeps and anything can happen. USC will lose a game and Ohio St and Michigan play each other so one of them must fall.

I know most of you watch College Gameday each week and if you don't, then you're not really a college football fan, are you? For those of you who have been watching the show, how many freaking times do we have to hear about Adrian Peterson's dad??? Ugh!

What about the Wisconsin band not being able to attend their team's game this past weekend? The reason: the band is on probation for "bad behavior" while on the road. I just want to know what kind of antics can band geeks get into? Am I the only one who thinks that's hysterical?

Desmond Howard gave his top 5 at mid-season on Saturday and while I really don't care about his input, I did notice that he's got Cal at number 5 but he doesn't have Tennessee in his top 5. I guess Desmond forgot the beat down that the Volunteers put on the Golden Bears. 3 words: West Coast Bias! That's annoying to la Chica.

Finally, this is not completely sports related but what the hell is wrong with Doug Flutie's hair? Can someone please let Doug know that 1984 is over?!
