Orange Bowl Open Thread

Who: Stanford Cardinal vs. Virginia Tech Hokies
What: Orange Bowl
Where: Miami, Florida
When: Tonight at 5:30 PT/8:30 ET
TV: ESPN
Announcing: Mike Tirico, Ron Jaworski, and Jon Gruden, SR: Michele Tafoya
My Pick: Virginia Tech
Notes: If God loves me, Stanford loses this game, Andrew Luck declares for the NFL, and Jim Harbaugh takes the Raiders job and flames out and has to take his old job back at San Diego University. I would just take a Hokies win tonight, but I know Virginia Tech will find someway to choke in this game. It's just fate. God wants Jim Harbaugh and Pete Carroll to mock me in my sleep.

    @ Keith: I bet you must be giddy at the rumors that the 49ers are in the mix for Jim Harbaugh. ;-)

    @Justin: I'd rather have Harbaugh than Billick.

    /Prepares myself for the Niners to name Billick their coach.
    //I have a post tomorrow that involves all four of us and our head coaches.

    Herbie & Palmer both confidently pick the Hokies. I'm feeling much better about taking Stanford tonight.

    I wish ESPN would quit showing the furd-Cal highlights. I'm about two seconds away from punching a hole in my wall.

    Brando tweet: "I picked Va. Tech, but since they are not playing Syracuse is (helmet reference) guess I'll go with Stanford. Another annoying uniform gaffe"

    It's great hearing Gary Thorne do hockey again, even if the US is getting it's ass handed to it by Canada.

    Good news! Ron Franklin did not call Jeanine Edwards "sweetcakes." He said "sweet baby," instead.

    Heh. Tirico was talking about how well they support VaTech and the camera pans up to a bunch of empty seats.

    How nice of VaTech to become an honorary Big Ten member for a night.

    The early NBC game (Saints-Seahawks) will be called by Tom Hammond and Mike Mayock, with Alex Flanagan sideline reporting.

    Thank goodness it's not Theismann and Gibbs again.
