Football brings a certain culture in American society. Traditions, like tailgating, foam fingers, beer, and more beer, are practiced in normalcy.
These past weeks, college football fans were glad to continue these traditions in the coveted "BOWL WEEK". Bowl game after bowl game after bowl game! Too many bowl games to count.
Having brothers and cousins, you sometimes get caught up in it all and so, I decided to try these "football fanatic" traditions out. Minus the beer.
The first bowl game we watched was WIsconsin vs. Oregon. I go for the underdogs, and so, respectively, I was rooting for the Badgers. In the first half, Oregon seemed to have taken control of the game. They seemed so fast yet they were so tiny! The runningbacks were moving through these massive linebackers as if it was a day in the park.
But, I still had hope for Wisconsin. QB Russel Montgomery seemed to have finally found some type of rhythm later in the first half which was quite promising.
It was 3rd quarter, and Wisconsin only down by a touchdown! It was getting a little tense in our household as most my brothers and 2 cousins were for Oregon while me and 2 cousins were Wisconsin. Both teams made mistakes ending in interceptions but Oregon was the only one that truly capitalized.
It ended in disappointment as Oregon won the Rose Bowl. But no worries! Always next year.
