It was a pleasure watching Wisconsin beat down Miami, especially after the Thuggo-caines jumped out to a 14-3 lead.

And I love Chryst's comment.

Well Bama got yet another injury. At least it’s not a lb. 

Rb Jacobs with hamstring injury in today walkthrough. No idea on severity. He’s 3rd string but plays a good bit.

And even with all of that, they have a better resume this season than Alabama does by every rating service worth its salt.

Not much they can do about the helmet thing though.
I called BS on espn after OSU's victory. They claimed 'bama had the 4th highest strength of schedule and deserved to be in ahead of OSU. But I thought they had the lowest of any of the top 10.

I've been calling BS on ESecPN since they got in bed with the SEC. And yes, I DO think they have influence over the playoff committee because all of the games are on their network. Money talks.

Going into the CCG there was "very little separation" between the #5-8 teams in the rankings. And then after the CCG's, during which one of those teams (OSU) beat the #4 team (UW), all of a sudden it was clear that Bama was #4.

Yeah, OK. 

Look at the very bottom of this page, where they show the partner organizations in the playoff.

One of those is NOT like the other.

I can have good intentions of rooting for a team for all the logical reasons, but sometimes it just doesn't work

I'm happily surprised to say I'm actually rooting the the Blue Boys and it feels OK.

Go Blue
