Tyrann Mathieu says he can't wait for the NFL Draft so he can begin his professional football career and also stop worrying so much about getting arrested.

"This has been the hardest few months of my life," said the former LSU defensive back. "Not getting arrested is exhausting. But if I can just make it through the weekend, I'll be the property of an NFL team and they'll pretty much be stuck with me."

Mathieu said he has kept himself on a sort of personal house arrest as the draft has approached, figuring it would be harder to get arrested if he stayed at home.

"But you don't realize how much trouble you can get in at your house," he said. "The Internet allows you to commit almost any crime from the comfort of your couch. Just today I ordered 300 pounds of weed from someone in Arizona. It's amazing. But I'm hoping nothing will be traced back to me until the draft is over."

LSU and Alabama, the two best teams from America's premier college football conference, faced off for the second time this season Monday night in the BCS title game. Over 60 minutes of action, the Tigers and Crimson Tide set the sport of football back approximately 30 years.

"I hate football now," said President Barack Obama to Alabama head coach Nick Saban after the game on a congratulatory phone call. "Congratulations, but you may have ruined the sport for a generation."

In more than eight quarters of play over two games, the two best teams in the country combined for one total touchdown and 10 field goals. While the games were marked by outstanding defense, they equally featured horrific quarterback play and terrible play-calling.

"By the end of the game, I even started to wish I had picked another sport," said star Alabama running back Trent Richardson. "I hear baseball is boring? But this boring? I can't imagine that's possible."
