Tonight, the two most storied football teams in the country meet head to head for the BCS championship. I have only two words: Roll Tide!

Tweet of the Morning:

they're in a 50-way tie for No. 26 RT @npike8:....Just curious, where do you have Kentucky?

When your dad's a politician, some of that's gotta rub off. :-) I found this funny.

Your Quickies:

Kentucky football

• Kentucky Sports Radio // Florida is interested in QB Asiantii Woulard
  Two things to note: First, Kentucky has been on him longer, which is worth something. Second, he really doesn't fit in Brent Pease's system as a QB, so Florida probably wants him for a WR. Keep your fingers crossed.

• Kentucky Sports Radio // Ben Bradley decision coming tomorrow
  I don't expect to get this guy, so if we do, it is an upset. Fingers crossed?

Kentucky basketball

• Louisville native D'Angelo Russell on Cats' radar // Kentucky.com

  Louisville native D'Angelo Russell transferred to Montverde at the same time, and he got a taste of Boyle's brashness as soon as arrived on campus.

  "He told me from the start that I'm smooth," Russell said. "But he don't like smooth guys."

  I have news for the young Mr. Russell - John Calipari "don't like smooth guys" either. Somebody asked me why Calipari hadn't offered Russell yet. Dollars to doughnuts, this is why.

• Kentucky Sports Radio // Evan Daniels says Wiggins to Florida State
  I wouldn't put too much stock in this. It may happen, but my understanding is that this is one of those you can take with a grain of salt.
