The real dickwad is Mark May.

Amen. I think some people got too uptight about Trev's Iowa/Brad Banks fetish in 2002. Big deal. He's an analyst, he gave his opinion, and he was wrong. Hell, when he was at CBS in the 90s everyone complained he was some
OSU homer -- he was driving the bandwagon saying Tennessee didn't belong in the national title game in '98, that it should've been
OSU. Besides, I thought he acquitted himself rather well with his glowing, post-Fiesta Bowl essay on ESPN's old bowl site. His blurb to the effect of "I was wrong. Miami could never beat
OSU with the way they prepared" brought a tear to my eye.
How quickly people forget, these two occassions were only four years apart.
