I don't know why this piss me off... but how are we not mentioned in this article? For those that haven't seen it, here are the games that are talked about:
Fried Turkey - Iron Bowl - #1 Alabama vs #6 Auburn
Cheesy Green Bean Casserole - Clemson (10-1) vs South Carolina (8-3)
Don't Talk Politics at the Dinner Table - The Egg Bowl - Ole Miss (5-6) vs Miss State (8-3)
Stuffing - Ohio State (9-2) vs Michigan (8-3)
The Black Sheep - LSU (8-3) vs A&M (7-4)
Cornbread - UCF (10-0) vs USF (9-1)
Failed Attempt at Mac and Cheese - Florida (4-6) vs FSU (4-6)
I kept reading the clearly east coast biased article thinking "surely, the Apple Cup... Grandma's famous apple pie". It was right there for the taking and its a match up against two top 20 teams with PAC 12 Championship game implications... AND NOTHING. What a bunch of east coast homers. To be clear, I don't have a problem with the games that were included as each "fits" the theme they were going for (i.e. failed attempt at mac and cheese being two underachieving Florida schools) but how our game isn't even mentioned when the name alone makes it an easy inclusion, is infuriating to me for some reason. No respect.
