If only we had a playoff. BCS, still shit.
People would be arguing if Alabama deserved to be in the top 4 etc....no matter how many spots you make the playoff people are still going to argue the last team left out could have beat X.

AP got the boot because they're irrelevant. Nobody cares about sports writers.
They didn't get the boot. They asked to be removed from the BCS.

The person I mentioned votes AP now but voted "by proxy" the coaches poll for years.

Of course, but playoff CFB! That's just better.

Also, I think OSU should definitely be in the title game over USC south.

Mizzou is horrid against mobile QBs. Connor Shaw beat us in a single quarter of playing and Manziel is making our D look like a joke. How do you not just follow LSUs gamelan from last week

This is a good game so far - Haven't been in Columbia since 02', forgotten how much I really really like the town/atmosphere. Bet its rockin' tonight.

Your defense isn't the problem. Your offense not scoring against one of worst defenses in college football is the problem.

Well at least Georgia won.

So, I watched the entire Alabama vs Auburn game with a friend of mine who went to Alabama and thus of course heavily roots for them. There were some very interesting referee calls in this game that made me wonder if they had a super secret camera they used for reviews. But since it seemed to go both ways, we just shrugged it off.

Then comes the final play. Alabama got their one second. Finally the review system worked properly. So what did the head coach decide to do with this precious 1 second...kick a 57 yard field goal with a kicker who had already missed 3 of them that day from much closer distances. My friend and I both were like WTF???? So, we figure oh well, on to over time we go.

....... That goes down as one of the best endings to a college football game ever. It was awesome watching how the Alabama offense just stood there watching the football and not seeing the loan runner waiting for it under the goal posts. By the time Auburn received the ball, Auburn was more than ready to block the stunned Alabama team who was not ready. My friend could not speak for like a full minute. I am not kidding. Hell my mouth was ajar for a solid 10 seconds after Auburn scored.

Hats off to Auburn for calling the play and executing it to perfection. That was awesome to behold.

Here's an odd stat. ESPN just said there have only been 4 missed FG's returned for a touchdown in NCAA history. Two of which happened this year and both in the SEC. Maybe I missed something but that just doesn't seem right. Maybe they meant 4 times it has been returned 100 yards to win the game.

Alabama used a different kicker for their last field goal. Apparently he was their long distance FG kicker.

It makes a lot of sense. 57 yards isn't an atrocious distance, even if it's 20% that's way better than a hail Mary. Playing the odds.

Finally off the field and back at friend's place. Had like 1,000 text messages and phone calls. Jesus this place is crazy. A pic before we went down. Chick next to me recorded the play, she's upping it now.

Uhh never mind data super fucked up right now

Woot, got my Christmas gift early!!!! Fuck you Nickie, fuck you bama fans, fuck you BCS. OSU will probably get shitkicked once again but they do deserve to be there. Undefeated is undefeated and only two teams really deserve to be there. Love me some Auburn tonight and hope to see Johnny Football kick the shit out of an overrated Mizzou team.

Now we have to see who the media will suck off for the next month or so. Nickie's gotta hope that Terry still has her skills cause he isn't seeing anymore of it until the offseason from anyone else.

Better to fuck up the 8/9 or 4/5 spot than the 2/3 spot I would think.

Clemson might rack up 10 win seasons for the next 5 years....but I dunno if they will ever beat South Carolina. Spurrier is going to own Dabo Swinney like he did Peyton Manning.
