I've decided I like this CFB playoff thing

[Dooley]

Wow!

 

[noeynox]

That explains Mississippi losing to TCU 42-3?

No. Like I said, they don't like the type of roster that shows up and rolls good teams from other conferences like Alabama typically does. Ohio State on the other hand recruits at bamas level and just ended their season. boom.

 

[J187Money]

Well, the committee appears to have booted the Ohio State selection. Picking a playoff team with a 3rd string quarterback based on one win over a team whose coach had one foot out the door doesn't seem like such a good idea. And TCU looked pretty good.

Good call.

 

[nelsonmuntz]

Is it me, or did Meyer snap that ball with 15 seconds left because he thought Alabama might be expecting tOSU to wait until the end of the play clock?

Great effort by Elliott regardless.

 

[noeynox]

All I can say is wow. Ohio State brought it.

 

[Chin Diesel]

Well, looks like OSU players had the extra gear.

 

[noeynox]

A good dose of humble pie for Saban. Love it.

The SEC had 7 top 25 teams.

It's hard to claim superiority when they go 2-5 and the wins are against Miami and Texas.

 

[noeynox]

It's only been a few hours since we've seen how this plays out....

CFB is a funny game. Bama let Ohio State hang around too long when Jones was struggling early

They had a bad year. It was bound to happen. 7 top 25 teams is part of the mystique and aura hype for their league.

 

[nelsonmuntz]

Good call.

You really nailed it with your "Ohio State will beat Alabama" call. Oh wait.

You only get to say "I told you so" when you actually told me so.

Come on. You spoke with such authority in that post, you gotta take it. The third string QB played a hell of a game so far.

 

[noeynox]

Wow what leap to recover that onsides.

 

[whaler11]

What in the hell is Ohio State doing. Hey let's make Art Briles look good.

All he had to do was say Ohio State was going to win, and he could pile on me all night.

 

[noeynox]

I was just thinking when was the last time someone ran on bama like that and they throw up the graphic. 2003, the last time Bama gave 200yds to a rusher.

 

[Dooley]

HORRENDOUS play-calling there.

 

[nelsonmuntz]

He should only have thrown that pass if his guy was wide open. That dumb pass together with the 10 yard retreat jones just did saved Alabama 10 yards and about 45 seconds.

 

[noeynox]

Bama defenders have been yanking at the ball all night they obviously coach that, but OSU did a good job protecting against that, obviously coached that way also. These are two heavyweight programs/coaches. What a game.

Uh they should never have called for a pass when they have two timeouts.

 

[noeynox]

OSU bringing it. What a hit.

 

[noeynox]

Bosa where are you

 

[nelsonmuntz]

Saban's end of game clock management is almost as good as Geno's.

 

[noeynox]

Wow. worth staying up late and paying for it at work tomorrow. Awesome game.

 

[Dooley]

SEC-YA! Go North Football!
