GENERAL VIEWS ( 18th Edition )

Here we are with only two bowl games left. It has been a very unpredictable bowl season this year as a lot of the favorites have been beaten. At last count there have been 16 underdogs that have won their bowl game. I can't ever remember the bowls being so unpredictable. Last night in the Orange Bowl, the Iowa Hawkeyes completely dominated both lines of scrimmage against Georgia Tech. I didn't see that one coming. After doing more research on Georgia Tech I found that three of the last four teams to beat the Yellow Jackets have had seven or more days to prepare for their Spread Option attack. Dabo Swinney and the other ACC coaches need to copy the blueprint of Iowa's defensive game plan against Tech.

As we start a new year and a new decade I have a lot of questions pertaining to the sports world for the coming year. I am going to tell you what some of them are and if you have any opinions or feedback I would love to hear from you. Here they are:

QUESTIONS THAT I AM WONDERING ABOUT FOR THE COMING YEAR

(1) Will Tiger Woods be back playing golf by the Masters?

(2) Will Brett Favre retire again this year for the third time?

(3) Who will be the new Super Bowl Champions ?

(4) Will the Atlanta Braves make the playoffs this season?

(5) Will the New York Yankees buy another World Series Championship?

(6) Will any player in Major League Baseball hit 60 plus Home runs this season?

(7) Can the LA Lakers repeat as NBA World Champions?

(8) Can the North Carolina Tar Heels repeat as National Champions in College basketball?

(9) Can Dale Earnhardt Jr. win a Nascar race this year?

(10) Can the Gaffney Indians boys basketball team make it back to Columbia for another chance to finish the job, and win the State Championship?

(11) What school will Clemson backup QB Willy Corn transfer?

These are some of the questions that I have been wondering about for the coming sports year. I have some more questions about the second half of the sports year that I will get into at a later date. It will be fun and interesting to sit back and see how these questions will be answered. This is one of the many reasons why I love sports so much. LETS ENJOY!

Until Friday.
