Wow - this is it! The wrap-up of college football! As a coach's wife - some years the season feels like it will never end, while other years it just flies by! Our season has been finished since Thanksgiving, so we've been enjoying watching other college teams finish out their seasons with some really fun games this year!

Monday night is the BCS National Championship Game - the LAST BCS Championship I might add - since the NCAA is going to a playoff system next year...I'm excited to see how that goes! This year's championship is between Florida State and Auburn and takes place at the Rose Bowl in Pasadena, CA. If you've never been there before, put it on your football bucket list. It's beautiful!

If you are enjoying this year's National Championship at home - try this workout during the game to burn off some of those game day snacks and to keep you on top of what's happening! You can do this workout other places too - but they might look at you funny if you drop down into burpees at your favorite sports bar. Please tell me about it if you do. Don't forget to pick your side before kick-off, and do the exercises as the game goes on!
