1. Boston College has one of the better QB's in the college game yet, with about three minutes to play and clinging to a three point lead over a totally overmatched Michigan State team, they decide to start running the ball. In a bowl game. That has no real meaning to anyone. For the love of God, stick to what works for you. God help us all if coaches start taking risks in second-tier bowl games. They'll always remember that you lost the 2007 Champs Sports Bowl. Always.
2. This isn't exactly about the game itself, but about BC football in 2007. Here's my issue. BC apologists talk often about their desire (which I think they rarely back up with any real action) to make BC a legitimate contender for the national championship, or at least have the ability to contend for a BCS bowl (by the way, more on the irrelevance of bowls later). Here is what BCS contenders absolutely cannot do: lose at home to a bad Florida State team, when everything is going in your favor. Win the games you should win.
