Et Cetera More Than a Game

From Rose to Peach, there were 16 end-of-season bowl games last week, but even that wasn't enough to cover up the smell of something rotten in college football this year. In August, Miami Hurricanes team members were charged with defrauding the government out of scholarship money. In November, Washington Huskies players were accused of selling guns and pocketing improper loans. But in the end there was some good football. Fans were treated to a true championship when second-ranked Alabama whipped No. 1 Miami 34-13 in the Sugar Bowl.
