2017

Today is the first day of a new year - and the first full year of this website.  And in an attempt to live up to the name that I use for this site, here is my first entry in 2017.

Since before the bowls started I have been looking ahead to the new year, but there is a special game being played tomorrow afternoon - the Rose Bowl.  Always my favorite, the Granddaddy of them all will pit USC versus Penn State.  An unlikely matchup since both of these teams were written off back in late September.

This will be the Trojans 34th appearance in the Rose Bowl, and they have a record of 24-9 in this game.  The Nittany Lions are playing in Pasadena for the 4th time, having won only once - back in 1995 against Oregon.

Should be a great game with two historic programs...
