I watched Oklahoma a few times this year and they never impressed. I think they deserved the distant fourth spot as much as anyone but having watched all year I knew they didn’t stack up.

Bama lost by 5 points in that game. I'd say that's fairly tough, certainly better than what OU did today.

They got a late score from a blown coverage when the game was over. It wasn't that close cupcake.

No one played LSU tougher than Auburn did--if Auburn had a more experienced QB, they win that game.

Auburn had 3 losses on the year and also several close wins against teams that aren't that great like A&M. Can't trust them.

You're right about Nix though. That kid has a lot of work to do on his game.

I'm not suggesting Auburn in the playoff but Alabama damn sure didn't deserve it. They had nothing on their resume that suggests for them to deserve it, you dont get in on name recognition

Jim Harbaugh has done a great job rekindling the Bo Schembechler tradition.

Michigan is annually overranked, is a nonfactor in the national championship picture, and loses bowl games every year.

A true Michigan Man.

Auburn definitely proved themselves as a fraud today. Losing to Minnesota? You gotta be kidding me.

Big Ten getting hosed by SEC and ACC ref crews this bowl season. Turrible.

Questionable call, yes. But Wisconsin dominated and turned it over 4 times.

My comment didn’t concern Wisconsin’s poor care of the football. The ref crews from the ACC and especially the SEC in the bowls with B1G teams were dogshit. Even a Big Ten official gave pubkic acknowledgement that the Clemson fumble was a fumble and the call shouldn’t have been reversed.

They should’ve stuck with RichRod, IMHO.

I was too young to remember much of Bo at Michigan. Were they always overrated?

Not much of a college fan as I am with pro but have to go to the hometown of UT Volunteers of East TN. But think that L.S.U. even with Burrow gone could be up there as the new Alabama meaning a top ranked team.
