I made it! I made Stewart Mandel's Mailbag*! I'm somebody!
Stewart, we know you make every effort to remain impartial, but you're only human. Which do you fear most from the BCS title game: an Ohio State victory, which would produce a flood of "The Big 10 was underrated" e-mails; or an LSU victory, which would open the torrents of "The SEC is the Greatest Conference EVER" e-mails?

Ah, that's where the beauty of the "delete" key comes in. I'm more concerned for the streets of New Orleans in the hours immediately afterward. That's a whole lot of pent-up bragging rights set to come out, one way or the other -- and I can't imagine alcohol will make any of it more rational.

*Actually, this is my second time, but I still get a kick out of it for some reason. When your football team is 6-6, you need to look elsewhere for validation.
