Now that was a great Rose Bowl and fitting cap to excellent season for TCU. Both teams played well and the game was compelling from beginning, when the offense dominated, to end, when each first down was an accomplishment. The Horned Frogs seemed pretty happy considering that all those crying for a playoff will be upset for TCU. But they, like 34 other programs, will end this year with a win.
Wisconsin, like fellow conference rivals Michigan, Northwestern, Michigan State and Penn State, lost today in what will go down as a dark day for the Big Ten. The biggest problem is that all of these second tier bowls want the conference because its teams travel loads of alums. So mediocre teams like Northwestern and Michigan get to play on January 1 when more deserving teams sometimes do not.
