My Boilers won't be going to a bowl for the second year in a row and just the third time since 1996. It sucks, really. The last 13 seasons I have been spoiled with 10 bowl games, including a trip to the promised land: Pasadena on New Year's Day.

I was there on January 1, 2001 as the Boilers took on Washington in the Rose Bowl. I want you guys to experience it too. There is no greater feeling than seeing your team come on the field for the Rose Bowl. Let's Boiler Up (or is it Duck up?) for the Civil War for the Roses. After all, we beat Ohio State, so I guess that means you can beat Ohio State. Once this is done I can go over to basketball fully.
