Now, I know you cannot compare scores…but didn’t ND beat Georgia by a bigger margin than they beat Indiana, the team Finebaum declared “everyone knew didn’t belong in the playoffs” ahead of SC or Alabama? I love karma (sometimes)

Technically true but Indiana scored two garbage time TDs against NDs 3rd stringers, one with 1:20 left and one with 27 seconds left. This game was way closer.

Let's be honest, I don't think the SEC has been the same since they signed the big TV deal with ESPN..... must have cost more than their souls.

The CFP really needs to drop the top 4 conference champs get byes and make it the top 4 teams get byes (as soon as next year). Conference champs can still auto qualify but the seeding so far has been ridiculous.

If you had to reseed the 12 teams how would you?

Would you have dropped UGA down knowing their starting qb was out?

Hey Josh- what are the chances we can get a Home and Home scheduled starting next season with South Carolina? Asking for a friend, of course.

I'd rather save that for a bowl game & play mostly bunnies in out of conference.

I like 10 win seasons and we're not yet recruitng at the level to do that yearly. More 8+ win seasons get us there.

Yes - I was being funny. I'm with you, with the new conference expansion, you need your traditional tune up games.

With the quality of the broadcasting that we have seen from ESPN in bowl season, I'd like to give another thank you to the fantastic production that the CBS folks brought to the Michigan game. At the time I certainly didn't realize how lucky we were to have that one on CBS.

Yeah ESPN fell off hard.

Allstate's curse from their commercials this bowl season:

1) Stew Virginia loses to Memphis
2) High Tide loses to a mediocre Michigan team
3) Roasted Duck gets roasted by O$U
4) Then a horrible tragedy that postponed their sponsorship game.

Talk about mayhem!

Thank you for not putting us in a commercial and stay away from us.
