The NFL Regular Season is officially over. Some teams surprised us (the Titans), while others were a huge disappointment (the Lions). Owners and General Managers waste no time placing blame on the coaches for a team’s poor performance. Several NFL coaches have already been fired and we’re still less then 24 hours from the last regular season game.

The Sugar Bowl in New Orleans, Louisiana will host the Alabama Crimson Tide (12-1 overall, 8-0 SEC) from Southeastern Conference and the undefeated Utah Utes (12-0 overall, 8-0 SEC) from the Mountain West Conference. The game is scheduled for January 2 at 8:00 p.m. and will be televised live on FOX. This will be the first meeting between the schools. Utah is 0-6 against SEC teams, although it hasn’t played one since a loss at Tennessee in 1984.

The Liberty Bowl in Memphis, Tennessee will host the East Carolina Pirates (9-4 overall, 6-2 C-USA) from Conference USA and the Kentucky Wildcats (6-6 overall, 2-6 SEC) from the Southeastern Conference. The game is scheduled for January 2 at 5:00 p.m. and will be televised live on ESPN. Kentucky won the only previous game between the teams, 6-3 on Nov. 13, 1993.

The Capital One Bowl in Orlando, Florida will host the Georgia Bulldogs (9-3 overall, 6-2 SEC) from the Southeastern Conference and the Michigan State Spartans (9-3 overall, 6-2 Big 10) from the Big 10 Conference. The game is scheduled for January 1 at 1:00 p.m. and will be televised live on ABC. The only meeting between these programs was Georgia’s 34-27 win in the 1989 Gator Bowl.

The Super Bowl is always the most watched television event every year. It’s a time for friends and family to get together, enjoy great food and watch football. The daily festivities have almost become an American holiday. The Super Bowl could feature two of the smallest market teams, yet the entire world will still be watching… even our troops stationed in Iraq.
