Of the 12 coaches, Rush picked the one whose fans have the deepest passion, the longest memories, the greatest lung capacity and … did I mention deep passion?

Georgia down 20 in the 4th at Auburn. Guess Bama will be back at #1 next week.

Alabama is a lock for the playoff now. Even if they lose to Auburn and don't win their division. An 11-1 bama with their only loss @ a likely top 5 Auburn would cement them in the top 4.

There is some really entertaining football tonight. Notre Dame is in trouble, and Alabama better watch it. They are down in the 4th against a Mississippi State team who came to play.

There's not a single game between ranked teams this week coming up. Weird for mid November.

So after all the hype UW is eliminated from the division race. Wsu controls everyone's destiny next week. Win and they're in the title game and are playing for a new years 6 bowl.

Kyle Wittingham once again being criticized for his late-game decision making. The game was tied and Utah just punted with 24 seconds left. Washington had the ball on their own 28 yard line with no timeouts. First play they run the ball for 2 yards, looks like they're going to overtime and then Utah calls timeout. Washington then completes two passes and they win it on a last-second field goal.

He may have screwed Utah out of a bowl with that timeout if they lose to Colorado.

LOL at Donte Williams. Great choice. Of course maybe he is retained and it works out for him but it does seem karma is alive and well

Or... maybe not his last game as a Bruin.

But definitely his last game at the Rose Bowl.
History says, Don't hope
On this side of the grave,
But then, once in a lifetime
The longed-for tidal wave
Of justice can rise up
And hope and history rhyme.

Every lie we tell incurs a debt to the truth.

Yup, absolutely. They'll drop to #3 or 4 because Miami also lost. And they'll still sneak in even without winning their division.

Indeed. If Wisconsin loses to Ohio State next week then I'd almost guarantee that Alabama and the winner of the sec title game both get in.

They had to say something.

Things they couldn't say:

1. That stuff about caring about a conference championship for two teams that generally look the same was bullshit.
2. Alabama was worthy: I mean, their best win was against a 3 loss team they beat by 14, a team who lost to Troy. In their second best win they beat Miss St w 25 seconds left.

So yeah when you can't say #1 or #2, gotta grab onto something.

Who's the best team right now? Well, they played Iowa a while ago. Ah, got it.

Everyone besides the SEC and ACC is not relevant. They'd have 2 of each in the playoff if they could

We are in 100% agreement there.

(Probably 3 SEC teams and the ACC champion every year)

Too bad none of my holiday pto will fall on the 29th. I kinda would be interested to go to the Arizona Bowl and get a beer and watch the Aggies in their first bowl game since 1960.

A 86 yard fumble return for a TD and a 100 yard int return for a TD gets the Ducks back in it. What a weird game. 7 total TO's in the first half.

The Arizona Bowl might be one of the top attended lower bowls of the year.

Have to wonder if we sold 5k in tickets to our bowl? I doubt it

I'd like it as a fan. I'd rather follow a team to NYC than Shreveport.

That said, the game looks rough. The field has terrible footing and the stands emit large blasts of steam that almost cover the field. It does make you wonder how OSU got blown out by Iowa.

Wake Forest has put up 31 points on Texas A&M already in an 11 minute time span. Still 13 left in the 2nd quarter.
