Watching College Football (and pretending to know what's going on)

It's a Saturday night.  I'm home sick with Swine Flu (I know it's the pig flu because my tail is curling, I have been snorting a lot, and I smell like bacon when I am in a hot room).  My boyfriend texted me to turn on "the game" - I didn't even know if I was watching the right game, or who I should cheer for.  So I turn on "the game" (Oklahoma/BYU) and make a quick assessment of the game:  7-7 in the second quarter...  There goes my first way to pick a team (the underdogs).

However, Oklahoma had a pretty red uniform...
...and BYU had a plain, boring, white uniform...

Obviously, I became a fan of Oklahoma.  So that was a no-brainer.  But besides my "highly educated" decision on who to cheer for in "the game" I had no idea if I made a good decision.  Based on the information that I have gathered, Oklahoma was a good choice.  They were supposedly the favorite for winning.

Ah, but we (Oklahoma) were not the champions, my friends.  No, no no no.  So sad.  My underdog/uniform team decision almost never fails me.
We Are the Champions - a "special" treat
