It all comes down to this...brother vs. brother, Tiger vs. Tiger, purple vs. purple...#1 LSU and #2 Clemson will battle it out for the Season 5 National Title in the final game of RUTS 1. Experts agree that this rematch (LSU defeated Clemson 47-9 in week 2 of this season) was destined to happen.
Clemson enters the game as a 3 1/2 point underdog, but they will not relinquish their grip on the BCS crystal ball without a fight. With confidence and 4 rings on its side, Clemson undoubtably has the poise and confidence to come out victorious in these kinds of games. However, if anyone is fit to knock Goliath off of his throne, its LSU. Clemson has an unrivaled 66-3 record so far in RUTS' 5 seasons, but the Bayou Bengals from Baton Rouge have beaten Clemson two straight times, and the overall series is tied at 2-2 entering this game. If anyone has the skill and roster talent to be confident going into a game against Clemson, its LSU.
This RUTS rivalry's trophy, the 54 Cowbell, which has been on display in Baton Rouge for the past two seasons, is being put into retirement for this game, as bigger and better things are on the line.
All of Hollywood's starlets and Miami's beach celebrities will be on hand for this one. Shaquille O'Neal, an LSU alum, will host a party at his beachfront home for all LSU fans traveling to South Beach. Corndogs are on the menu. Shaq stated that his party will be unrivaled by the "other Tigers in the city" because, as Shaq stated, "no one cool as ever graduated from Clemson, except Horace Grant and Lucas Glover, who got lucky and won the US Open way back in 2009 and was never heard from again." In this battle of Tigers, who other than Tiger Woods would be fitting to toss the coin before the game? Tiger, Tiger Woods, y'all. And People Magazine confirmed today that Jon and Kate Gosselin will be in attendance at Dolphins Stadium, with Jon wearing LSU gold and Kate sporting Clemson orange. As usual, the former couple will pose for cameras as they insist this rivalry is what's best for their 8 kids, who, just like in real life, will be stuck in the middle of their parents' feud. Boom roasted!
Newly elected US President, and former Dundler Mifflin big-wig, Michael Scott who won last November's presidential election in a landslide, will be watching the game from the luxury of Dan Marino's suite at the stadium. Scott insists he's most excited about "receiving a new pair of Isotoners from Dan."
With all the hubbub surrounding RUTS' final showdown, it all comes down to the X's and O's, which team can handle the ups and downs of this kind of stage, and whose big players step up for their team. The winner will walk into the sunset holding RUTS 1's final crystal ball, with Queen's stadium anthem "We Are The Champions" blaring, as confetti pours down from the heavens. Purple Rain, you might call it.
The BCS National Championship game kicks off at 7:45 PM (EST) on Monday, June 29. Television coverage will be announced soon, but the game will be aired either LIVE on Ustream.com or tape-delayed on YouTube (and the RUTS website).
