Bowl Week & Quality Time With Mascots





















BCS National Title Game: #1 Alabama vs. #2 Oklahoma
"The Rematch of the Rematch!!" The Tide and the Sooners meet once again for the national title. In week 3 of this season, Alabama defeated the Sooners 24-16 in a rematch of last season's National Championship Game, which the Sooners won 34-31.

Bowl week has allowed for some much needed R&R for both coaches. While their players are busy enjoying luxurious bowl gifts such as Vera Bradley luggage and Origins hand cremes, the two title game coaches got to spend a romantic week on South Beach with their respective mascots, Big Al (Alabama) and Boomer (Oklahoma). Among other things, the coaches enjoyed walks on the beach, carriage rides through Little Havana, and even danced the night away at a party hosted at LeBron James's beachside bungalow

This is anyone's game, but you'd be hard pressed to find anyone outside of Norman, Okla. who would put their money on the Sooners. You have to think that Alabama runs the table to finish undefeated, gets a hard fought win, and sends Trent Richardson off into the sunset (to the overjoyed merriment of RUTS coaches everywhere!).
