Okay, we got past the Military Bowl, and the two weird stadium bowls, and whatever the hell the Pop Tarts Bowl was, and now we have three bowls all named for their southwestern host states, Arizona, New Mexico, and Texas. The first of these, the Arizona Bowl, has the 8-4 Fresno State Bulldogs of the Mountain West against the 7-6 Miami (Ohio) Red Hawks of the MAC. The Bulldogs are 3½-point favorites.
As a Georgia Bulldogs fan, I can't cheer against the other Bulldogs, so I took Fresno State as the favorite. And you know what? IT WORKED! Fresno State got a TD and a whole lot of field goals, and beat Miami, 18-3. My first win of this very long day, my first win in the last six games, and my eighth win of the season, which is pretty pathetic. I suck at this.
I can feel my fortune turning. This game was a jinx-breaker and I know I'm starting on a winning streak that will last as long - no, longer - than the losing streak that just ended. First, Arizona, then New Mexico, then Texas, and then the world. There's no stopping me now.
There's two other games already in progress, so I need to go over there now.
