welcome to any major sport with so called referees and fouls based on judgement.

It was a good game, but ESPN is already calling it one of the greatest ever. Going to have to call b.s. on that. Had some good moments, but I think it's already at hyperbole. Give it a week and they'll proclaim it the greatest game ever.

fuck the SEC.

basketball. I find it unwatchable between that and the people in the stands and on the bench in particular making their reaction every drunk the same BS theatracical "oooohhhh".

indeed. AU jumped ahead and couldn't hold it. they finally faced a team with the depth to run with their offense. it took them a bit to get the hang of how to defend them but they got it. but even then they had a terrible time defending the passes over the middle.

blah. I'm glad AU didn't win. I was so sick of watching so many other teams win titles while the Dawgs continued to underachieve.

Tight coverage for sure, but the hand on the hip was unlikely to have changed the way that turned out.

With Gus running down the sidelines trying to call time out on that play as well, I am forced to wonder why the coaches don't have a button that alerts the officials that they want to call a time out or to challenge?

That was textbook PI, at the end, once he went from on the hip to wrapped and changing the receivers momentum/direction. That's going to be called every time. Notice both refs in the end zone threw the flag simultaneously.

Missing the horse collar was bad. I'll give the ref some leadway on that one as he had to step out of the way and it gave him a bad angle to see it.

Missing the face mask on Winston earlier in the game was a no excuse call.

But, that's how it goes in every game. There's bad, and there's good. It was a great contest, and pure excitement right to the last second. I enjoyed it.

never leave a game in the ref's hands.

So: Is everyone happy with the BCS? :D

No I am not happy with the popularity championship series

the Bullshit Championship Series. cowboys get screwed every year. at least the sooners took out alabama.
