I'm really confused. It's a product of my newness at this football stuff, but all these different polls and who gets to choose the winner and how the computers love Iowa but people hate us...all that; it's confusing. I'm used to sports like gymnastics where, even if the judging is subjective, it's pretty clear who the winner is based on points alone.
I tried to get this guy (thanks Keith!) to explain how football rankings work to me, and I just wound up even more confused. But have no fear, I don't really care. I like to watch the game. I like to watch us WIN. Whatever happens in the post-season is great, especially if it's us playing and us winning, but really, I just like to watch the ball make it to the end-zone.
That said, I'm really kinda sad that being part of the Big 10 makes us look lame. Anybody who knows me that I'm one of the most competitive girls you will ever meet. Forget everybody winning, forget making people feel good. I want to be on top of the podium...and it is SO totally lame that people's perceptions get to decide where the Hawks end up.
Anyway, I really don't know what I'm talking about here. I guess I just am trying to tide myself over until Saturday. Thank God it's an early game (sorry all you tailgaters!) because I can't wait!
