SMU...no bueno

I’d have loved to seen Bama, Ole Miss or South Carolina play at Penn State today with a high of 25, 30 mph winds and a 10 degree windchill.

It would have been similar to Tennessee getting their arse kicked at Ohio St.

If you just looked at the stats you would never think the score was 38-10. The two pick 6s were crushing and the 3rd pick in the redzone was it.

Cmon. Multiple pick 6s throw off the stats. Did you forget the Pitt stats?

Can we all take a moment and appreciate that the game was INDIANA and Shane Gillis called out nick saban as Alabama jones with that stupid hat. I about fell out of my seat, laughing so hard.

It’s a bit of a problem for college football that the narrative coming out of these games is that the result is an indictment of the committee and the loser of the game (except for guys like Finebaum saying Ohio State is the championship favorite now since he needs to do that to keep glazing the SEC).

We don’t watch KC blow Miami off the field in the playoffs last year and say “man, Miami NEVER should have made the playoffs! Team X should have gotten in over them!” We talk about how great the Chiefs are. But as long as college football fights against an objective system to select playoff teams and insists on using a political process instead, the narrative is always going to be a negative one coming out of playoff games.

I hate Ohio State, but I can’t believe how hard I rooted for them and was thrilled they blew Tennessee off the field. It did take a lot of wind out of the SEC-homer narrative that SMU and Indiana didn’t belong after the Vols got blown out also.

The Alabama Jones comment made up for an otherwise somewhat awkward/unfunny appearance. I was dying laughing - saban was definitely pissed.
