A winning New Year's Day; Closing things down
Not a bad New Year's Day of betting for me at all. Had I stayed away from the Hawaii/Georgia Sugar Bowl entirely it would have been even better, but who could predict that Colt Brennan would suffer a complete meltdown?

I've got a lot riding on tonight's Feista Bowl, and I feel pretty good about that. I think the Sooners will shut down a leaderless West Virginia team and win convincingly. I know that Bob Stoops badly wants to erase memories of last year's Fiest Bowl.

Shutting things down
I don't think I'll be making any more posts, by the way. I plan to keep listing my active bets, but the task of keeping posts updated as become more of a hassle than an enjoyment, so it's time for me to move on. As of now I don't have plans to bring this blog back next fall. We'll see what comes next for Redneck High.
