Settle down, hater.

[Bison]

Well it looks like the Jets have a quarterback to draft next year.

[Bison]

OSU is not justifying their selection over TCU or Baylor.  The two games played today are making me even more pissed about how the teams were selected for this farce of a playoff.

[Bison]

OK I take it back.  OSU is actually starting to play like they want to be here.

[MetalDog]

'Bama better figure out how to take that QB out!  He's gonna run all OVER the place if they don't!!!!!

[OJsDad]

YES!!!!!

[OJsDad]

Well, Bama just drove down the field and scored.  It's a 7 point game with 1:59 left.  On side kick coming up.  Bama has 2 timeouts left.  OSU gets the onside kick.  It was a great kick with a perfect bounce, but Spencer made a great jump for it. 

[OJsDad]

That was a terrible series by OSU.  Almost no time off the clock.  The one goo thing is Bama has no time outs. 

[OJsDad]

They did!!!!! The Buckeyes pulled it out.

[Bison]

Finally I don' t have to listen to just how much better the SEC is than every other conference for at least 7 months.

[OJsDad]

Next steps?  'Bama beats OSU like a rented mule,

That mule learned how to kick back. 

[Bison]

Well now that I've seen the two teams I wanted to see get beat get beat.  I have no further interest in the whole "playoff" thing.  Good luck to the fans of the chestnuts and the ugliest green uniforms ever worn in a football game.

[MetalDog]

Congratulations to OSU.  They beat us fair and square.  I don't like that 'Bama lost, but, you can't argue with a decision on the field.  Good luck to the Ducks and the Buckeyes going forward.  As an aside, what's ESPN going to do now?  They played a role in the, 'SEC is the best!'  Do they just move on to someone else?  Or do they find a way to spin the losing bowl record, including by its juggernaut?

[Steelgrave]

Two games, two upsets. You could argue these college playoffs just invalidated every college "championship" ever awarded by polls. This is how championships should be decided....on the field.

Can't wait for an 8 and then a 16 game playoff.
