IlliniKrush Posted December 3, 2011 Share Posted December 3, 2011 Somehow LSU is still in this game with zero first downs and 12 yards. Georgia's also literally dropped 11 other points. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Georgia's also literally dropped 11 other points. 60 minutes. They're fortunate enough to have the best defense, which kept them in the game until their offense woke up.

Balta1701 Posted December 4, 2011 Share Posted December 4, 2011 QUOTE (IlliniKrush @ Dec 3, 2011 -> 05:32 PM) Bowl games for 6-6 (or 6-7) teams is ridiculous. As Herbstreit said, it's little league and everyone gets a trophy. It's become ridiculous how many games there are. I like how Conference USA lost 17 million dollars today. Oops. If it were actually ridiculous, then those last 15 bowls wouldn't make money. If you don't want those bowls to exist, then don't spend the week before Christmas watching bowl games. We're all going to do it anyway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He needs to talk to the network he works for then, because ESPN bids and show alot of Bowl games with teams with 6-6 or 7-6 records. They promote the hell out it with the Bowl Week s***!

I dont mind the excitement on plays like the one where Wilson hit the big 4th down pass that led to the eventual game winning score. But there was a kickoff return in the 3rd quarter that was brought back to midfield and I thought Gus was busting a nut on the play. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rex Hudler Posted December 4, 2011 Share Posted December 4, 2011 Chances of OK State passing Bama in the final BCS poll increasing big time. If the Harris poll reflects what happened in the Coaches and AP poll, we're going to have an LSU - OK St final and Michigan probably gets knocked out of the Sugar Bowl.

Rex Hudler Posted December 4, 2011 Share Posted December 4, 2011 From everything I am hearing and reading, it is going to be very close between Alabama and OK State tonight for the final spot in the NC game. MUCH closer than anyone could have expected going into yesterday. If OK State goes, Michigan likely goes to the Fiesta. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dasox24 Posted December 4, 2011 Share Posted December 4, 2011 (edited) I don't get the SEC hate on here. It's completely undeserved, unlike the Notre Dame hate which is understandable (though, to clarify, I'm not a ND-hater. I like ND. But I also understand why some don't). Winning 5 national championships in a row says it all. It's just my opinion, but I think there's no doubt that Alabama is a better team than Oklahoma St. They both have one loss. With that said, I also would have liked to see LSU-OKST in the championship b/c LSU-Bama already played... and b/c LSU would stomp OK ST and shut up the haters even more. No matter what happens, the SEC is about to win it's 6th straight BCS Championship. Unreal. Edited December 4, 2011 by dasox24 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Iowa St > LSU? Exactly. Alabama is the second best team in the country so they deserve the spot. OK-State has no one to blame but themselves for blowing a 17 point lead and losing to a crap team. And I think Alabama beats LSU. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zenryan Posted December 4, 2011 Share Posted December 4, 2011 I don't get the SEC hate on here. SEC hate is because of their fans. Nothing more annoying that listening to fans of teams of teams like Ole Miss and Miss St chanting SEC SEC SEC because LSU, Alabama or Florida wins a title.

They're hating on a rematch of what was an atrocious game in the first place. No one argues the SEC's quality, but often times is awful football to watch.
