We see your Turkey and raise you a Baltic state.

US Senators Richard Shelby of Alabama and Kay Bailey Hutchison of Texas have decided to take part in that most traditional of American football traditions - the political politician wager on the outcome of Thursday BCS National Chamionship Game. Shelby, a University of Alabama grad, has put up a smoked turkey from a turkey farm in Fort Deposit, Alabama against University of Texas alum Hutchinson's gobbler from a Tyler, Texas turkey farm.

But enough about that nonsense, it's the university presidents that have the right idea about how to go about this kind of thing. UT President William Powers Jr. bet barbecue from Iron Works Barbecue in Austin and UA President Robert Witt countered with a spread from Dreamland Bar-B-Que in Tuscaloosa.
