It is amazing how the BCS ‘ship’ righted itself! Yesterday the SEC held positions 4,5,6,7 (AL, GA, FLA, LSU) and no real shot at the national title. Kansas state gets thumped and Oregon stumbles (actually Standford just played better) and now we can get back to reality. SEC is the best conference and should have a shot at the national title. Here is hoping that USC shows it’s true colors and gets stomped by Notre Dame and Alabama uses Alburn as a needed tune up before meeting GA. May the best SEC team meet ND in Miami!
ND probably does not deserve to go.
From CBS:
“SOUTH BEND, Ind. — Notre Dame knew what was coming. Stanford doesn’t get cute inches from the goal line.
And after three years of getting pushed around by the Cardinal, the Fighting Irish pushed back, winning the most important shoving match they’ve had all season.
Or did they?
A wall of Notre Dame defenders stopped Stepfan Taylor inches from the goal line on fourth down in overtime and the seventh-ranked Irish remained unbeaten with a 20-13 victory against the No. 17 Cardinal on a soggy Saturday in South Bend.
Taylor kept reaching and turning with bodies underneath him, and his knee never did hit the ground before reaching the ball across the goal line. But the officials ruled it was too late. The whistle had blown, and that meant the play was stopped.
Taylor finished with 102 yards on 28 carries. He needed 103. “
You forgot to add A&M to your list! We are SECnow, and acting like it!
The SEC was definitely a case of the “haves” and “have nots”, some usual SEC powers had real bad years, like Auburn, Tennessee, and Arkansas.....but Vandy looks like they may actually be player now for the near future.
Baylor was just awesome. Catholics owe the Baptists big time!
