Congrats to Army and Air Force for winning bowl games this year. That is such a good thing to see. I always root for the Armed Services when they play in bowl games because those football players serve our country and that is always worth rooting for unless they play UCONN.
Miami and Notre Dame play today...big game...GO CANES!!!
Miami has a bad reputation. I spent three weeks at the University and loved it. I'd have gone to Miami if not UCONN. Anyway like I was saying, I read that Miami has one of the better academic track records in Division I football. For so long the football team was known for other things, but they actually appear to be one of the better academic football programs.
Which brings me to another thing. I think some of the most celebrated programs should be the ones who are top academically and athletically. I'd like to see an award that balances Athletic Performance for a team and Academic Performance of the team. That would be like honoring the top academic programs that made it to the NCAA's etc. and than figuring out who had the best balance of academics and athletics.
Basically a team Scholar-Athlete award.
