    Everyone in the house heard me moaning about that. Total brainlock.

    Endless field goals seem like they are going to come back to bite Auburn. They've scored on 8 out of 9 possessions and are only up 3. It seems like Alabama eventually will get a stop or a force a mistake somewhere in here.

    Auburn is going to lose this. They won't be denied.

    Kinda have the same feeling. Was just saying that Sims has gifted Auburn the ball several times and Auburn really hadn't done a ton with it. If Alabama simply hadn't given up the ball as much as they have, they would be running away with this one.

    I look forward to the day that Auburn doesn't have a middle school level defense. It's gonna be fun.

    Wow... Baylor barely survived that game against tech. Crazy. I guess even the good teams struggle every now and then. Like TCU vs Kansas.

    We would have scored 60 plus in our sleep if Petty hadn't been taken out by a cheap shot. Briles said at halftime that they were taken cheap shots.

    I think the bigger problem for Baylor was the giving up 46 points. Four separate 40+ yd passes for TDs in the 16 or so minutes is a trainwreck. Whether we like it not, this is a beauty pageant to some extent, and Baylor didn't do anything to further their case.

    At the end of the day, I think Baylor would go ahead of TCU and OSU, but it's dicier than it was 24 hours ago - both of those schools expanded the gap with Baylor instead of narrowing it this week.

    Eh...recency bias. TCU looked equally as bad against an even worse team in Kansas a couple weeks ago, but people have largely let that go. I don't thnk this will end up meaning much in the end.

    Baylor just needs to beat K State in a solid fashion and they should be in. Just no logical way to put TCU over them with the head to head.

    I generally agree, but the results on Tuesday included that TCU ugly win - it did not include Baylor's ugly win. If TCU was already looked at as "better", and now added a blowout @ Texas while Baylor squeaked by @ Tech, the gap grows.

    Between TCU and Baylor, that's true. But OSU is also in the mix, though we don't know what the QB situation does to it. But OSU will have a conference title and 2 big wins (MSU, Wisc), similar to Baylor. So there, how they each look in these final games may help determine it. It helped Baylor that OSU struggled with Michigan, though the final score didn't indicate it.

    Look for a Mack Brown interview. I thought Mack would be on the list of Michigan but that was before Harbaugh became a possible candidate.

    Why would a big-time program hire Mack? It was obvious to everyone he was totally out of gas and out of touch the last 3 years at UT.

    The Huskers turning to a UT reject to resurrect their glory days, somehow I don't see that happening.
