If he does well, maybe Nebraska will bring him home

I certainly, absolutely, assuredly, beyond any question, did NOT miss watching SEC football on CBS this season.  

Gary Danielson is horrific.  I'm sorry you fellas have had to endure him this season.

If they're both announcing a game in a forest and no one is around to listen, does a tree chop itself down?

Going for two was certainly was a choice... not the right one, but a choice nonetheless.

I wonder if the "committee" will slot Texas differently to avoid a third rematch in round 2.  They claim they won't.

Penn State shouldn't drop too far, ND didn't play, Texas has to drop to somewhere, 5 or 6 with ND at 7?  That 5 slot probably will host Clemson which sounds attractive, maybe.  Whoever has to play AT PSU, Texas, OSU will have a rough road.

in the past they've avoided rematches

SEC team gets the #5, if not a B1G team

I dunno that this guy "knows" anything, but it's one projection.  We'll know soon enough.  Texas would seem to be positioned pretty well per the above, but I'm GUESSING Penn State ends up at 5.

At least twice.
