  5. Chris Dufresne's top 10 college football moments for 2012 season

    The end of this season means there's only a year left of the snaggle-toothed Bowl Championship Series, a cartel dreamed up by Satan that has been infuriating college football fans since 1998.

  7. 'Traditional' Rose Bowl? Look a little closer
