Saturday sports final is necessary since three games were not yet completed when I last posted. 7 Alabama held on to defeat Arkansas, 14-13. 3 Ole Miss took care of 14 Texas A&M at College Station, 35-20 (how about those teams from Mississippi!!) and late, late, last night, USC upset 10 Arizona, 28-26. As a result of yesterday’s action…surprise there is a new #1, at least in one poll!
The Coaches Poll is out (AP Poll not yet out) and Miss State is the new, current #1 team in CFB. The Poll is as follows: 1 Miss State (26), 2 FSU (31), 3 Ole Miss (5), 4 Baylor (what a come from behind win over TCU), 5 Notre Dame, 6 Michigan State, 7 Alabama, 8 Auburn, 9 Oregon (welcome back to the top ten!!) and 10 UGA.
In tennis news…Roger Federer defeated G. Simon 7-6, 7-6 to win the Rolex Masters event in Shanghai. Was a bit of a sluggish match, especially after the drama and energy of yesterday’s awesome semifinal victory over Novak Djokovic. Simon is a baseline player and the rallies were sometimes long and tedious. Federer non the less avoided a let down after yesterday’s huge victory and has started his indoor hard court season off with a great win and his fourth title of the year. ROGER THAT!
