It really sucks that UCF lost Milton (and I hope for the kid's sake he can actually play football again, brutal injury requiring surgery). Any minor chance they had to make the playoffs is gone, committee will never give them a chance now. May also downgrade some of the end of year rankings for UCF.

That wasn't "find a way to lose." They got throttled. Outside of a minute to end the 1st half, it wasn't close.

I know. I was being sarcastic. Aside from the fumble this was as complete an ass kicking as you can have between two top 10 teams.

As an aside, the last time Michigan had a real shot at a national title was 2007 - when their awesome defense (no irony) gave up what like 41 to OSU in The Game? And here we are 11 years later and they played even worse. Yuck as Eck would say.

Tua for 5th TD.

The impressive aspect of this effort is they were tested. Only momentarily and not mortally, but this game was not a lay down. Auburn’s best effort.

Hurts for TD pass in relief. 52 to 21.

I spent years rooting for others against these guys. No more this year. It’s not giving up. It’s just winning football.

What a bunch of shit games today. Miami is destroyzing Pitt.

I expect ND to dominate USC. USC is fucking awful and Helton is halfway out the door.

UCLA fumbles to end the game. Then targeting call overturns the fumble... yikes.
UCLA marching across midfield down 7.

Yup, Arizona was up 12 about 3 minutes ago, they've turned it over twice on their last 3 offensive plays, and Arizona State has turned them into scores. Arizona State has scored like 17 points in under 4 minutes. 41-40, Arizona ball, with 3 minutes to go.

South Carolina just had an impressive TD drive to start the game against Clemson.

Holy crap. Arizona receiver gets behind the defense, but Khalil Tate throws the ball 75 yards in the air and overthrows the receiver by about 5 steps.

Ruh roh, Arizona has put together a great drive, but it looks like they may be settling for a longish field goal...

College kickers...don't trust 'em..

good grief, Arizona has just left about three touchdowns on the field in the last seven or eight plays. Dropped ball and two overthrows

So predictable.

As Herm once said "You play to win the game." You don't win by trying a field goal as time expired in college. Just keep the foot on the petal and get it in the end zone.

Rutgers down 14-10, throws a pick at the 3 yard line against Michigan State with 1:26 left. Rutgers still has 2 timeouts, so they might get the ball back with about 30-40 seconds to go.
