The Joe Moore Award

The Joe Moore Award is awarded annually to the best collegiate football offensive line unit. The award is presented by the Joe Moore Foundation for Teamwork and they state that "The Joe Moore Award for the Most Outstanding Offensive Line Unit will annually recognize the toughest, most physical offensive line in the country, making it the only major college football award to honor a unit or group, unless it’s Michigan whose Offensive Line got absolutely demolished by Georgia’s Defense in the 2021 CFP Orange Bowl Game."

So I guess the Gator Bowl started at 11AM.

Wake Forest 7
Rutgers 7

Rutgers (5-7) is a fill in for Texas A&M who couldn’t field a team due to COVID.

$2.49 for gas

Filled up the other day. Kroger member discount 60¢ off.
We bought a lot of gift cards for Christmas so that must be it.

I need to start doing what I’ve known other people doing - buy themselves gift cards at Kroger (2-4x in points) for Lowe’s or Amazon etc.

Filled up my 10 gallon tank for less than $25. 👍😀

Barstool* loses college football game due to COVID. *scumbags

This is sports related but it’s important otherwise in terms of the ongoing COVID problem.
Barstool is basically the ProudBoys of the sports world.
Texas A&M couldn’t field a team for their bowl and UVa (Virginia) couldn’t travel both due to COVID levels on or around their teams. UVa was supposed to play Southern Methodist in the first Fenway Park Bowl - football on a baseball field.


Central Michigan moves to face Washington State in Sun Bowl; Arizona Bowl canceled as COVID-19 disrupts football bowl season

https://www.espn.com/college-football/story/_/id/32948406/central-michigan-moves-face-washington-state-sun-bowl-arizona-bowl-canceled-covid-19-disrupts-football-bowl-season

Central Michigan will now play Washington State in the Tony the Tiger Sun Bowl on Friday, a move that allows both teams to play in a bowl game.

Both teams lost opponents to COVID-19 issues. Miami withdrew from the Sun Bowl on Sunday, sending the bowl scrambling for an opponent for the Cougars. That spot was filled by the Chippewas after their scheduled opponent, Boise State, withdrew from the Barstool Arizona Bowl on Monday.

The bowl games and respective conferences worked out an arrangement for the Sun Bowl to move forward with a game, while the Arizona Bowl became the fourth bowl game to be canceled for COVID-19 reasons.

Washington State arrived in El Paso, Texas, for the Sun Bowl on Sunday, only hours before Miami announced it would not be able to play. Central Michigan was already in Tucson, Arizona, preparing for the Arizona Bowl. In a statement, the Sun Bowl said, "Being a four-hour drive from El Paso, the Chippewas are set up logistically to make the trip and compete on Friday."
