Boise with the best running back ran off tackle all night. We showed you could run wide on them. Bad game plan there, too.

I would LOVE a crack at PSU on a neutral field indoors.

Texas pulls that game out of their arses after their kicker choked on 2 would be game winning FGs. Credit to ASU for representing the Big XII well. Still wish we could have played Texas in Austin in the 1st round

Ohio State is curb stomping Oregon and in these 1st two rounds has looked like the best team in college football. With a reported $20 million roster you would hope to have enough talent to compete with anyone in the CFP

Can’t wait for Herbstreit to get on ESPN tomorrow to tell us that Oregon didn’t deserve to be in the playoffs, they were over rated, we got caught up too much in the wins…

Oh, wait

UT was one 50/50 targeting call from losing that game. Of course the refs gave them the benefit of the doubt. I was surprised how many folks trekked from Arizona to the Peach Bowl. Looked like they had a good half of the stadium. Although, I doubt that the ASU running back could have played next week, it looked like he left it all out there yesterday.

Duke missed the 14.5 point spread by 17.5 points, which was the same amount that UTK did vs. Ohio State. SMU missed the spread by 20.5 points. They were all blowouts and unexpectedly bad losses.

In Ford Stadium's First Responder's Game this afternoon, UNT is a 14 point dog partly because Chandler Morris, the son of Chad Tempo Morris, bailed on the team for a better opportunity at UVA. This is like Maalik Murphy at Duke who appears to be upgrading with a wad of cash for Tulane's prolific QB. I doubt UNT is upgrading. Anyway, if UNT loses by 32 it too will be embarrassing.

TX State's coach, GJ Kinne, needs a win after his star has lost a bit of luster since beating Baylor on the road last year and throttling UTSA this year. The Bobcats only lost by three to AZ State at home and beat South Alabama (a bowl winner) by seven on the road in their last game. I'll take TX State and the points.

UNT is 29-7-3 all time vs. TX State but has lost six bowl games in a row. I suspect more Bobcats fans will show up at Ford. Does SMU sell Weber EZ seats for this one?
