Boise State is unbeaten in the Fiesta Bowl. They stay unbeaten. 31-27 Broncos.

Herbstreit is looking more like a pud every day.

I get that it’s a bowl game, but Beamer should have kicked the FG and then used his timeouts and two minute warning to get the ball back.
-
This game should be a lesson for every coach. Put shock collars on your players and hit the button whenever one of them thinks about celebrating. There are referees out there who are actively looking to change the outcome of a game.

PSA. Keep in mind that most hotels in State College are already sold out for that weekend. Altoona might be the closest place to get a hotel room at a reasonable price.
Pittsburgh is 2.5 hours and Philadelphia is 3 hours depending on where you fly into. A day trip from those two cities might be an option.
I will be driving up to northern MD Friday to stay the night and then driving in on the day of the game.

We have never won a Rose Bowl wearing white pants against Ohio State. This isn’t a good choice.

Cam McCormick finally used up all 9 years of his eligibility. For context, I was four years from retirement when he was a Freshman. I am now five years into retirement.

Colorado can score very quickly. If their defense can force a couple of stops the Buffs can still pull this out. I’ve seen bigger deficits erased in the Alamo Bowl.

This game has been a fecal extravaganza from the start. It should be called the Lack of Focus Bowl. Seven penalties in the first quarter, two dropped passes that would’ve put BYU in scoring position, an onside kick recovery where Colorado was caught sleeping, a dumb trick play that led to an interception, and a mad scramble by Shedeur that took his team out of decent FG range.

Not watching but please tell me Feld is running around acting like his usual idiotic self. I'll feel even better about Mario and his band of go of balls being gone.
Yes he is. And his star players are limping off with injuries.

Mario impressed me by taking the points there. He knows that if ISU scores a TD he can run the ball into FG position while milking the clock and kick the winner.

And likely will not be there until a 3rd Natty, if then?
The 1st is a Fluke. The 2nd, It's easy to get lucky twice. The 3rd. Perhaps these Sucks don't Ducks?
OBD is in a Galaxy far, far away from Bristol, CT.
FRACK ESPN, tOSU, and FEBU to All!
Not likely. 1-3 and beyond would be”bought and paid for with Uncle Phil’s money”.

If Ohio State gets through their gauntlet (Tenn, Oregon, Texas, UGA/ND/PSU) then they will undoubtedly deserve the championship trophy.
-
Some of the first round teams have an easier path to the semi finals than does Oregon, but at least one team (Texas) lost multiple starters due to injury. Oregon could also get Harper back with the time off, but nothing has been announced yet.

There is a myth being perpetuated by ESPN and their gang of mouth breathers that the CFP should have the “12 best teams” competing for the championship. That’s very unlikely to happen because of the automatic bids for conference champions. There are a couple of things that have come out of the chief mouth breather, Kirk Herbstreit’s, pie hole that I would like to counter.
Best vs. Most Deserving:
He said this in reference to Indiana and SMU after their playoff performances. It’s not about who is best or more deserving. It’s about who “earned” their way in through their 12 game regular season performance. The three 3-loss teams that Herbie was honking for didn’t earn their way into the playoffs.
Ranked Wins:
Whenever I hear this I like to counter with the term “unranked losses”. These are obviously losses against unranked teams. Bama had two unranked losses and Ole Miss had three. A few playoff teams had one unranked loss (Tenn, Clemson, OSU and ND). The only way to overcome multiple unranked losses is to win your conference which is what Arizona State did.
Who you beat is more important than number of wins:
This was probably Herbstreit’s most idiotic comment. By his logic, NIU, Michigan and every mid-tier SEC team should be in the playoff. This is proof that lobotomies should be considered for SEC bias.
I agree that the SEC is a very tough conference, but so is the NFC East (historically) in the NFL. I don’t see them getting the benefit of the doubt for beating up on each other. If the SEC teams feel like they should get special consideration because their conference is too hard then they should find another conference to play in. I know of one on the West Coast that has a few openings.

I know a couple of Ohio State fans at work who would agree with you about 2 and 3. They think he should still be fired even if he wins the championship.
-
I you didn’t watch Friday night’s College Game Day you may have missed Shane Gillis cooking Nick Saban and the SEC. Saban (AKA Alabama Jones) got defensive (and butt hurt) really quick.
-
This is about as good a read as you will find on the subject of the pro-SEC media.
ESPN's CFP coverage makes for a miserable experience

ESPN spent the first weekend of the College Football Playoff bashing underdogs, criticizing fans, and living in the negative.-

No. 11 Bama would have played at No. 6 Ohio State.
This would've been a bloodbath. Maybe as bad as the Tennessee game, but probably worse. We saw what Bama did in Norman, OK when the weather got below 60 degrees. They would've been lucky to score 3 points in Columbus.
