Are We Finished Yet

If you haven't heard already, UT played the longest game in NCAA baseball history last night/this morning, winning 3-2 in 25 innings.

Among many contenders, the MVP for the Horns is pitcher Austin Wood. As a reliever, he pitched 14 scoreless innings, including 12.1 innings of no-hit baseball, logging almost 170 pitches total. While it would have been a historic game to be at, it may not have been too exciting until the end. BC went 8-80 at the plate, and the Horns were just 20-91. Be sure to check Burnt Orange Nation for further analysis.

Also, I came across this at a Kansas Jayhawk blog. It takes a look at how to fix the college football playoff mess by implementing a Premier League-type system. There are a few flaws to the hypothetical situation, but I'm mostly in favor of something like this. It seems relatively simple and clear. However, I'm sure that any Tennessee fan would not take to being put in the Bottom Tier League behind East Carolina and Troy. Take a look, it's a good way to kill 30 minutes or so.
