Quarterback vs. Quarterback

Jalen Hurts vs. Jarrett Stidham 

Let me brag about Jalen Hurts first. Hurts was a true freshman. He also was the first true freshman that was able to win an SEC Championship game. He also managed to defeat Ole Miss, a strong competitor for Alabama. His passing game was obviously not that strong last season, but I can tell you that he is motivated for this season. 

Stidham was the hope Auburn as been looking for. Ever since Cam Newton went pro, Auburn has never been the same. He has had a hard time in his football career with the neck injuries, but he gets his completions done well. He has a higher pass completion rate than Jalen Hurts. 

It really comes down to who can throw the ball and also run it well. Hurts is great at running and Stidham is great at throwing. We'll see how this season will turn out for both of them. 

About Time Gonzaga Lost, Again

Hallelujah! Gonzaga lost and I am so proud. I picked Wisconsin to win it all, but Florida stunned them with a last second 3-pointer. By the way, I really don't think that should count and I'm pretty sure Florida cheated in some way...

I watched the entire tournament and I was surprised at how dominate Gonzaga was in the first half. Almost every shot went in the basket and they were dominating UNC. When the second half started, it was a different story for Gonzaga. They missed more shots and UNC was making them work hard. I found one particular player in Gonzaga that I believe is the reason they lost and he should be fired from basketball for life. Nigel Williams-Goss, you owe me tacos. Not just because you lost, but also because you suck. Have you ever seen the movie Air-Buddy? Yeah, if you are a ball hog, you will never ever win. At less than 30 secs in the game, you decided that you would be the one to score the winning point. Your team was literally standing next to you, not being guarded well AT ALL and you just decided to go for it. What happened? UNC scored. I understand you would try to get the foul, but why not just let your teammate make a 3-pointer? Probably would have worked, just saying. They were now 5 points ahead and there was no way you were going to win the game. 

This championship gives me great hope. UNC didn't win last year, but won this year. Clemson didn't win last year, but won this year. You know what that means? Alabama will win the next college football championship, and I can't wait! 

Oregon, You Were So Close

I wanted Oregon to win, even though I picked UNC to be in the final round. If Oregon had not missed the last couple of free throws that they had, they probably would have won. Also, Tyler Dorsey had a 3/11 field goal, which means he had a pretty bad night. Overall, he scored the most in his team. 

UNC stayed in control throughout the whole game. They had the least amount of turnovers and scored the most three-pointers. 

How Is Your Bracket?

Busted. That's all I really have to say. But I must say that I almost had a perfect bracket the first day. Seriously, not even kidding, I was so close until Northwestern thought it was funny to win Vanderbilt. I am still so very salty about it. After that, it all went downhill from there. 

I made two brackets. I am pulling for UCLA and Wisconsin. I would like to give a special shout out to Villanova and say thank you for losing!! Made my day knowing that everyone expected them to win it all. I am surprised that no one believes Wisconsin will even make the final four. They made it last year, what makes you think they won't this year? Oh, and everyone thought Duke was going to win it all, but do not forget the Grayson Allen curse...

Now I have to wait three days for another basketball game! Which game should I watch? I am thinking Arizona vs. Xavier. It's going to be a good game! I will post my game thoughts after the game. 

Gonzaga taken down by BYU

Alright. First, I just need to stay that this was completely unexpected. When I found out BYU lost to UVU, my faith in them diminished. I did not think they were going to have a good season. Yes, they played hard and what not, but nothing was really impressive until this moment. I do believe Gonzaga was overrated, they always are. Gonzaga is usually ranked somewhere in the top 25, but No. 1?? That's saying too much. 

I will be honest, I have not been following basketball as much as I should have. I will definitely get involved once March Madness comes around. My bracket, hopefully, will be an improvement of last year! 

The Sports Blog Poem

To my fellow readers:

You may wonder why I am writing this
To be honest, I would rather give it a goodbye kiss
But this is an assignment I must fulfill
So I hope you enjoy my little spiel

I have Alabama fever
But the colors make me look like I have a fever
Too bad BYU is not competition
But they never have enough completions

Shayne Clarke I hope you enjoy what I have to say
Because this poem will for sure not stay
All I want is to get an A
But my grammar is nothing like bae

None of this is making any sense
The only thing that rhymes with sense is Mike Pence
Don't forget Alabama is great
And never hate

The Year of Guilt

Atlanta Falcons, Golden State Warriors, and the Cleveland Indians, this post is for you. So listen carefully because I'm only going to say this once, y'all need Jesus. All three of you blew leads that literally would have taken you to the championship. Now, I'm sure you are all feeling the guilt and want to punch yourselves (I know I do), but maybe, just maybe, if you had Jesus in your life you probably would have won! 

When does having a huge lead become so comfortable? May I remind you of last years football season when Alabama was playing Ole Miss. Ole Miss was DESTROYING Bama in the first half. They were up 24-3 in the half (look familiar?). The rebels were looking at another upset for Bama, but have no fear, the tide is always rolling. Bama avoided an upset and won Ole Miss 48-43. Ole Miss had a pretty comfortable lead in the first half. So what happened? I'll tell ya, the spirit left Ole Miss to Alabama because they were clearly more deserving (no bias here haha). The same thing occurred with the Atlanta Falcons. Will Atlanta ever win a Super Bowl? Only if they hire Tom Brady has their coach. Better start saving on that dough Altanta. He ain't going to be cheap. 

The Green Bay Packers Disappointed America

All the Green Bay Packer Haters have to agree with me on one thing, they are the most overrated team in America. Talk about the most disappointed fan base. I wonder how many of them have Tom Brady jerseys hidden under their sleeves... You do not see me walking around with a Clemson hoodie, do you?

-Begin rant-

I never had an actual problem with Aaron Rogers until now. That guy needs Jesus. Every year he thinks he gets so close to making the Superbowl, but he really just fails himself and his team. After watching Jojo's season of The Bachelorette and Jordan Rogers making it to the end, Aaron Rogers sounds like a total coward. He has no communication with his family and refuses to talk about them. If only he could be like Donald Trump, and tweet out things he is going to do and then go do it. Do not run for office Aaron, because you would lose bigly.

-End rant-

The Cowboys should have defeated the Packers. Yes, I said it. They deserved it and I believe they would have had a higher likelihood to beat the Patriots. BUT, I will come to the defense of the Packers just this once. This statement is for all football coaches that literally have no idea what the heck they are doing. This statement is also friendly advice and if you do not follow, I will be triggered. Here we go. KICKERS WIN FOOTBALL GAMES. Shocker.

What happened to Alabama?

I have a lot to say about this game, and they are not good things. First and foremost, I would like to give a special shoutout to Lane Kiffin and say WHAT THE CRAP. You left for a crappy low paying head coach job near the end of the season and that is why Alabama lost! You know Florida Atlantic University will never compare to Alabama, SO WHY LEAVE. Alright, all the frustration is out. You know he is the reason why they lost. Do not deny it. 

I am not done and I have a couple more shoutouts to make. Anthony Averett, you owe me tacos. You seriously pull a pass interference WHEN THEY ARE AT THE 9 YARD LINE!?!? Only a buffoon would do something like that! You know what I would do if I was your head coach? Fire you. You can go screw up someone else's national title some place else! 

Da'Ron Payne. My man, you know how to screw up a national championship. Unsportsmanlike conduct?? Really?! I am about to be unsportsmanlike to you because YOU ARE another reason Alabama lost. 

Marlon Humphrey, you and Anthony Averett are just alike. You both do not know the appropriate place to put your hands and you like to screw up championships. I would fire you too if you were on my team. 

You all may notice something in common. Without Lane Kiffin, the team is a mess. The marriage is broken and the hearts of millions are shattered to a million pieces. I, for one, am devastated. 

*Please note that I am being completely sarcastic in this post. Do I truly believe it is all Lane Kiffin's fault? Possibly.
