Our first quarterfinal not to feature a shutout at half.

Feeling a little better about tOSU's loss after Bama and TxTech got obliterated. 

Half way through the fourth quarter Ohio State was only down three and had the ball and the momentum. To that point Ohio State had outscored Miami 14-3 in the second half. I'm not trying to read too much into that. Miami won, I'm just pointing out that the game was very much in doubt at least until about 7 minutes to go. Indiana and Oregon fans were celebrating their victories WAY before that.

McDonough demonstrating yet again why he's best CFB pbp guy.    Calling that sequence a disaster with such vitriol.

So there's one coach who has seemingly and improbably won pretty much everywhere that winning is impossible. And then somehow he becomes the only coach to date who has avoided the "CFP bye curse".

You might need to think about this, @OrangeAfroMan ...

I had the same thought. We lost on the last series of the game when our QB threw an INT in the end zone.

good payoff after sitting through, or walking away from the two other games today.
