Lou Holtz is Braindead

 'Is it okay if I sing the Notre Dame fight song during the show today guys?'

Last night I watched ESPN Classic’s All-Time Greatest College Football Playoff.  I would have had a couple different choices, but that's for another time.  What did upset me is Lou Hotlz on the show, his comments are just plain dumb.  Here is how the show went down (know that the games/teams were voted on by fans online):

The 32 teams were put into four 'regions' of eight teams; Cotton, Sugar, Orange and the Rose.  They had two tables of commentator's and ex-coaches and another table of young guys.  The older table was Lee Corso, Barry Switzer and Lou 'I'm not smart and Notre Dame is the greatest even with 2 losses' Holtz.  The younger table included Kirk Herbstreit, Todd Blackledge and Mark May. 

I won't get into the entire show because I could write 1,784 pages on how Lou Holtz is completely clueless.  I'll just talk about the final game.  It ended up being the Johnny Rogers Nebraska 1971 team vs the 1995 Nebraska team of Tommie Frazier and Lawrence 'Girl, if you don't shut up I'm going to push you down the stairs' Phillips.  First of all, this is a joke.  Two teams from the same university should not be in the final...but I digress.  The '95 Nebraska team beat the 2001 Miami team that had 6 first round choices on defense and the 1971 Cornhusker team beat the '05 Vince Young's....I mean, Texas. 

Kirk Herbstreit was upset, as I would have been.  Two Nebraska teams in the final is wrong.  Just because ESPN Classic was the only station people could watch in Lincoln last night doesn't mean they are the two best teams.  Herbstreit was saying how this is a joke and Mr. Holtz came up with one of his BRILLIANT quotes.  He said 'Well, obviously this is right because this is how it was voted.'  No Lou, that is not right.  Just because Nebraska fans crammed ESPN.com to vote last night does not mean they are the two best teams in college football history.  (By the way, Lee Corse helped Nebraska win; in one round he said 'Come on Nebraska, you guys should be voting more than this).  Oh yes, this is a very real tournament.

Lou said something just as ridiculous the Sunday night the BCS Championship game was revealed.  After all the talking between all the commetators (please understand I love everybody else...Fowler, Corso, Herbstreit, May, etc), Lou said the EXACT SAME THING.  He said, 'Well obviously we have the two best teams in the BCS Championship game because that's what the voters have said.'  Again NO, that is not right.  Just because Florida is playing Ohio State and not Michigan doesn't mean Florida is better than Michigan.  It means that a lot of the voters don't want to see a rematch for the National Title.  Completely fine, but don't say these are the two best teams just because thats what was voted.

Mr Holtz knows FOR A FACT Notre Dame is going to beat LSU in the Sugar Bowl.  Just like the Irish beat Michigan and USC.  Oh wait, he was wrong.  He said South Carolina would 'DEFINITELY' beat Florida.  Yep, didn't happen.  Please ESPN, get Lou Holtz off the air.  I am sick of his bias and I'm sick of his stupidity.

** You are telling me these two Nebraska teams are better than every USC team, every Oklahoma team, every Michigan team, every Miami team, every Texas team.  Give me a break.  What is the best team of all time?  I'm still young but I say the 2004 USC team.
