I wasn't very fond of that play-calling by Arkansas on that last drive. Four plays, three of them draws and only one of the plays goes to McFadden? I liked the formation with McFadden at QB but I want the best player (arguably) in the country with the ball in his hands when the game's on the line.

Well, this is just fun football to watch.

Great throw for the TD. If that CB turns around, though, he could have easily swatted it away.

The #1 team in the country just gave up 50 points to an unranked opponent.... They'll still probably win

Nope! A lot of those points came in OT, though.

 

And the announcers are just dead silent on the air after the INT.

Wow. Just wow.

 

I feel bad for people who don't watch college football, or worse yet, prefer the NFL.

Arkansas is not your average unranked opponent... I'd love to see an Arkansas-Hawaii game. Score might be 50-49 at half.

 

I can't believe Mizzou or Kansas will have a legit claim to #1 at the end of the night.

I still think they should start at about the 45, where you need to get a first down to get a field goal, in OT. But, otherwise, yeah.

I'm pretty sure it's one of the signs of the apocalypse.

So Georgia could totally play Ohio State in the National Championship.

 

Super.

 

And Texas-aTm has become good.

what an awesome game to watch.

Is there a well-reasoned argument against college football's OT somewhere on the internet? I'm a fan of the overtime, mainly because it seems aesthetically pleasing, but I'd like to see the point-of-view of those who don't like it...

The only reason I've heard that some don't like it is that those players are just dead tired and the level of play seems to drop ALOT as the game continues to wear on and on and on. For this same reason, it's not the healthiest thing for the players.

 

But I personally love it, I would make the change that most want though. Which is to move the ball back to maybe the 40/45

I think they should just flip a coin in OT to determine who wins.

 

Wait, the NFL already does that.

 

Move it back to the 40 and play ball.

I really thought LSU was going to pull another rabbit out of their hat.

I hate it because college OT is almost a completely different game from football with such a short field. Here's my idea for a good over time that removes the "coin toss" element:

 

Each team bids on where they'll start the ball. The most disadvantageous bid gets the ball and sudden death play ensues.

I'm pretty sure they'd bid to their own goal line almost every time.

Here's to hoping the dominoes continue to fall for the buckeyes.

kind of looks that way, doesn't it?

Absolutely.

99 yard drives are hard to make and if they fail put the other team in a great position to win.

Outstanding.

 

 

 

Bahahahah awesome.

7-0 SIU

Bahahahah awesome.

 

George "The Rabid Goldfish" Hypolite.

 

No, that's not really his nickname, I just made it up.

 

 

I have a feeling its his nickname now.
