    Pac-12 championship game about to start on Fox. I don't really expect this game to be close though.

    I know someone probably says this every year, but I can't believe how quickly this college football season came and went.

    I did a double take on SMU....It is probably a good idea to just spell out Southern Miss or if you must So. Miss.

    Be like posting UT around here when you mean the University of Tennessee.

    wow UCLA is actually putting up a fight. Oregon's biggest weakness is against a power running game.

    Georiga/LSU good game so far. Those Georgia receivers really need to catch the ball.

    so uhh mr. honey badger threw the ball to the ref before crossing the goalline and somehow the ref didn't notice and was already signaling TD before he even crossed. great job.

    granted, i was watching the play and didn't even notice he threw the ball away (and neither did the announcers) so he apparently had some sort of mesmerizing hold on our vision as he almost made one of the stupidest plays ever.

    but les miles his his coach and things always work out for him so of course the replay official couldn't even notice it.

    the espn bottomline just said lsu didn't have a single 1st down in the 1st half? and they still kept it at 10-7 thanks to a dropped TD by their opponent and a punt return TD (that wasn't)? damn. how is les miles going to have 2 national championships?

    Congrats TCU!!!!!

    Did exactly what the Mountain West didn't want to happen. They DID NOT want TCU to win the Conf. Champ. while departing!

    Can't wait till next season and the Big12.

    EDIT: Just noticed, since UH lost. If TCU moves up 2 spots. Good chance they'll be headed to their 3rd BCS Bowl Game.
