We're closing in on the Super Bowl, but we have some great matchups today. First, the Caps will play Florida at home in a nationally televised game (NBCSN). Both teams are at the top of their respective divisions, but the Caps will be resting Holtby and will be without Ovie. So, it will be interesting to see the effort against a top-tier club. The Hokies play Syracuse at the Carrier Dome as a 9.5 point underdog. Also in relevant college action, the Hoyas will play Butler in Indianapolis and the Bulldogs will face South Carolina at home (19-2? Really?) All of my college teams' games look like potential losses, but here's hoping that one of them go against common wisdom. On the national stage, only two games really light up the radar, and they are both 9pm EST tips on the ESPN networks. West Virginia plays Iowa State and Indiana faces Michigan at home.
Fortunately, I don't have to put up with another lackluster effort by Les Bullets. They got smacked in the mouth last night versus the Thunder, and now they can look forward to facing the Warriors at home tomorrow night. Yay. National television audience: Don't watch unless you are a Warriors fan. This could get ugly.
While I'm on a bitter note, did you see what Art Briles said about RGIII and a 'dream' scenario of returning to Dallas? Yeah, it would be a dream for the Skins twice a year! Happy Groundhog Day!
