College Football and Jesus

Because I like college football...

Florida State did not belong in the Final Four.  Undefeated conference champion.  Looked a lot better on paper than in reality.

TCU did belong.  Everyone knows it now.  They handled the disappointment just like you should.  Play the game you are in, not the one you wish you were in.  I suspect they would be the #2 seed today.

Finish strong.  Ohio State got better as the year went on.  Paid off.

Strong programs matter.  Alabama did not win it all, but they were in the play-off.  They will be in contention next year too.

Conference affiliation does make a difference.  SEC strong.  ACC weak.  It showed.  Big 12(ten?) had no conference championship.  Oops. And would not even declare a champion between TCU and Baylor.  Not a good plan.

Big players make big plays in big games.  When the chips are down...


...and because I am always thinking about Jesus I am reminded:

to finish strong.

heart matters.

don't be fooled by appearances.

who I hang out with matters.

life is not always fair.

so don't give up.

keep my eye on the goal.  Heaven.

reputation matters.

but not as much as results.

When the chips are down in life, make the right choice.


Just random thoughts on football and the Jesus life.

Oh yeah, 100 years from now no one reading this will care about the football decisions.

But every one of you will care about the Jesus decision..
