Sure, the Civil War was horrible. (Watching a team run that spread option zone read stuff is a thing of beauty... that is, unless your team is on the wrong side of it and fails to figure out how to defend it. Yuck.) Not losing one in the past two seasons was nice but it's a rivalry and rivalries aren't any fun without drama, parody and all of that good stuff.

So, to all my fellow Beaver alums/fans/etc., take a deep breath, come down off the ledge, throw out those roses, don't drop that toaster in the bathtub and chill out. This was a pretty cool year and we've got a pretty interesting match-up for the Sun Bowl. Thankfully, the wonders of YouTube will help you remember just how awesome this season was. We missed the Rose Bowl, but based on the great things I have seen this season, I don't think we'll have to wait too much longer. GO BEAVERS.
