Roses

So the University of Oregon beat Oregon State University in the Civil War for the Roses, coming from nine points behind in the third quarter to win a seesaw battle, 37-33. I was a nervous wreck by the end of a far too excellent football game. Now the Ducks go to the Rose Bowl to play Ohio State University (I'm sorry, *the* Ohio State University) on New Years Day. The Duckies last appeared in a Rose Bowl in 1995, but they haven't won one since 1917. That's coming up on a century ago. It's about time, eh?
