you mean the game?

For next year?

Next year should be interesting...

Anthony Morelli gets to be the QB and all those freshmen that got PSU into the Orange Bowl this year will have another year under their belts....

That was totally ridiculous. College football, at least for the bowl games, is going to have to allow a coach to challege rulings and get a replay look. That's 2 games in a week decided by incompetent referees. And none of the copouts about not being the type of play that can be reviewed.

What a freakin' joke.

yeah they were....

I'm not saying they would have scored or anything like that, but we won't know, because the Headlinesman on that side screwed up the call very very badly....

Yep, how dare someone suggest that he might look at a replay to make sure such a critical call on a play that could decide the game be ruled correctly.

Ugliest FG ever. But it's good. That kicker, Christiansen (?) really needed that one.

Alabama beats TT with a last second FG, 13-10. Barely made it over the crossbar.

GO BAMA! ROLL TIDE!

What didn't happen the ref gave spots for Florida that were 2 feet off.

They called a spearing in the first half that wasn't. It lead to a touchdown for Florida. The last straw was the prefect on side kick that was negated because of an off side call.

what in the Iowa game?

They called an offsides penalty on the onside kick, except that Iowa wasn't offsides....

I go thru it every Sunday...yesterday there was 9 games on at the same time. During the season, I put all of them in the remote memory and just bounce around if the Patriots game isn't on.
I wish they weren't all on the same time. It will be nice too actually watch one game at a time in the playoffs.
