Both losing teams were outclassed tonight. Pretty embarrassing for MSU tonight.

Urban Meyer is going to have more Ezekiel Elliott related nightmares tonight.

It would've been much more exciting had Ohio State not slept through their game vs MSU

Yep. Also 50 mph winds and rain didn't help.

It's not really their fault. They tried everything to not make it there.

All the more reason to give Ezekiel Elliott the ball but I'm sure you have heard that one enough. ;)

I'm honestly not that surprised by this. I never thought MSU matched up well with Alabama.

Blocking scheme, offensive play calling, defensive scheme, everything was s***ty.

The ratings for these games had to suck

Same here. This match up was a layup for Alabama to get to the title game. Alabama feasts off of these types of teams.

Hopefully the ratings are sucking. The committee deserves terrible ratings for being hard drafted about keeping the games on NYE.

Everyone blames the Rose Bowl but the biggest f*** up was guaranteeing the Sugar Bowl the night slot. Semifinals at noon and 7 with the RoseBowl at 3:30 would be solid, but the Big 12/SEC worked their magic.

Ratings were way down. 15.5 vs a 9.5

Jaylon Smith just tore something in his knee

Lol. That's not even close to targeting.

Hahahahahaha. What a crock of s***.

That was an easy call for the official. He put his head down and lead with his helmet.

What would you call it?

Classless POS Urban Meyer trying to take out Kizer.

A hit into the chest. Awful.

Yeah. Refs looked at it and still messed up call. Weak.

Targeting and Initiating Contact With the Crown of the Helmet (Rule 9-1-3)

 

No player shall target and initiate contact against an opponent with the crown (top) of his helmet. When in question, it is a foul.

Nope, that is clear targeting under the rules.

QUOTE (RockRaines @ Jan 1, 2016 -> 10:38 AM)

That was like the example of hitting with the crown that they play for the refs when they are showing the training videos. I don't know how it could have been any more clear.

Can't lead with the helmet, intentional or not. You can argue the rule is stupid, but it was enforced correctly.

QUOTE (RockRaines @ Dec 31, 2015 -> 06:47 PM)
Meaningless bowl games mean nothing to me. Oklahoma is getting smoked in an important game. Houston should join and dominate that conference.

 

Plus we already knew the ACC sucked outside of Clemson.

 

Houston will need to work some voodoo because most schools in that conference won't voluntarily elevate another Texas school to P5.
