PIGSKINS IN DRESSES-PART 2
Welcome back. If you have not read my story “College Football Playoff—Why Are They Putting Pigskins in Dresses?” I encourage you to do so before you proceed with this story. You can find Part 1 in the College Sports Section in Football.
After Saturday’s Conference Championship Games, I sensed the sigh of relief from the College Football Selection Committee, here in Henderson, NV. They dodged, as they did last year, having to put two teams from the same conference in their ‘Final Four’.
For recap sake, let me break down each Conference Championship Game and the impact on the selection process. For those of you who missed the Iowa vs. Michigan State Game, it was a ‘Classic Duel of Two Titans’. More on that game later.
Game One—PAC 12 Championship—USC vs. Stanford
This game for the ‘Conference of Champions’ had very little impact on the selection process. It was also reflected in the crowd or the lack of a crowd. The players appeared to be vested and wanting to win, by the intensity of their play.
