He is a good fighter with lots of experience

I really had no plan.Erik Fontanez: At what point did you decide that MMA would become your career of choice Jake Rosholt: I went to Randy Couture's gym and worked out one day. Loved it and moved to Vegas about a month later.Erik Fontanez: Prior to your UFC debut, you racked up five straight wins. Some thought it was still too early to make the jump to the big stage. Do you agree with that opinion and did you doubt yourself at all going into that fight with Dan Miller Jake Rosholt: I wish I would have got more fights in the WEC. The experience would have been great.Erik Fontanez: Your next fight with Chris Leben was a big step up. One of the obvious obstacles middleweights face against him is his length.

What do you feel was the toughest part about facing Grove and was his size a problem for you Jake Rosholt: Obviously his length is a difficult thing to train for. He is a good fighter with lots of experience.Erik Fontanez: The look on your face after the fight was stopped was obvious disappointment. Any hope of landing there and, if so, who would be an ideal match up for you with them Jake Rosholt: I don't know what will happen yet Strikeforce may be an option. No particular reason.Erik Fontanez: Last question, if you were to give one piece of advice to anyone trying to enter the sport of MMA, what would you tell them Jake Rosholt: Take your time & enjoy the journey. I have written before that Jake Rosholt has a great deal of potential in this business. His strong background in wrestling, combined with his decent stand up and submission games, is a great foundation to build on and compete with in mixed martial arts. I look forward to seeing Rosholt do his thing in the cage again I’m sure it will be soon..

They had it in the palm of their hand. They had the teams placed squarely in their lap and the decisions were supposed to be easy. The BCS couldn't possibly screw this up...could theyAs of Sunday afternoon, most of us knew that the National Championship game was a foregone conclusion with Alabama and Texas, but looking at the remainder of the teams in the top eight, it just begged for the best BCS matchups in years.You had teams like Florida, TCU, Boise State, Cincinnati, Oregon, Ohio State, Iowa, and Penn State. The BCS could do amazing things and put together amazing matchups with those teams. It could be the best bowl season in recent memory.Instead, the BCS decided that they wanted controversy and leave college football fans stunned.When the dust settled and the BCS Selection Show came to an end, the one team that got the biggest shaft in this entire mess is TCU.

Having to face Boise State for the second straight year after facing them in the Poinsettia Bowl in San Diego last year. No one thought the BCS could possibly take away that kind of a match-up or take away TCU's chance to prove themselves against one of the best in the country.But, in typical BCS style, they decided that they knew better than all of those college football fans that look for great match-ups, not what brings in the most money.Now, just like every year that has passed, the argument for a playoff system has reared its ugly head once again. The BCS continues to say that college football wouldn't be able to figure out how to put a playoff system together, but apparently they haven't seen Yahoo Sports columnist Dan Wetzel's idea because his playoff system looks like a dream set up.Until the BCS realizes that what their fans want to see has nothing to do with money, this scenario is going to continue to happen. Instead of your "exciting and competetive" match-ups the BCS claims to put together, you'll be seeing boring and overdone.Sure there will be that one year where you'll have a few good match-ups here and there, but you'll still have those arguments about who deserved to be where.Those arguments will always be a part of the post season bowl games until a playoff system is put in place Until then, our arguments are nothing more than hot air..
