#4 — Alabama
#5 — Oregon
#6 — Georgia
#7 — Stanford
#8 — Kansas State
#9 — LSU
#10 — South Carolina
#11 — Oklahoma
My Texans beat Diane's Jaguars. That was an interesting game. The Broncos are doing pretty well. I can't recall are season were the Texans and the Broncos both did well.Other than last year when both won a playoff game? ;-)
LOL! IIRC those were ugly wins, but it's less ugly than the previous seasons. To make matters worse it's like I can console myself by rooting for Diane's Jags either. ;)
I guess I like underdogs.

Whelp, my Saints had a blah year, but what the hell, there's always next year.
Tomorrow night LSU plays their bowl game.
And I'm looking forward to the National Championship game. I'll be cheering on Notre Dame.
Not so sure about th Super Bowl, but as long as it isn't Falcons versus Patriots I might at least watch it.
Go Broncos! :)
I can cheer for the Broncos. Wouldn't mind seeing them go all the way.
:)
Go Tigers!
I knew the tigers were going to win!
I wasn't sure who was more likely to lose their s***, Florida's coach or the ESPN guys sucking his ...
Damn, if it wasn't so hilarious I'd almost feel sorry for Florida. And I thought LSU's loss was embarrassing.
seriously, though; Muschamp needs to refill his prescription.
The whole thing was literally embarrassing.
I'm embarrassed.
Not by the fact that we lost. Shit happens.
You don't go for an onside kick at the beginning of the 3rd quarter when you're down two touchdowns. And, for f%!%'s sake, the coaches need to not get 15 yard penalties for being in the white zone.
It's intolerable.
I'm embarrassed to lose through utter and complete hamhanded f&~#pumpery like that.
I mean, I usually try to avoid "armchair quarterbacking," but this was truly sophomoric and/or moronic. This was the behavior of a Village Idiot.
I don't even think I'm armchair quarterbacking. That would infer some sort of quarterbacking was being displayed. That was completely Ringling Brothers. Clowns beating each other with rubber chickens.
I'm embarrassed.
I'm just happy the Packers got a bye this Saturday.
Vikings come to Lambeau Field this Saturday.
I believe Notre Dame is getting killed.
Re: Notre Dame
BWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAHAHA!!!
Overrated doesn't even begin to describe them.
I believe that The Mask says it best, to paraphrase: "SMOKED 'EM!!"
Go SEC!
Center to quarterback, "Don't get bigger than your britches, son."
Roll Tide Roll
No sacks by ND ... no picks ... the Alabama QB is only a junior and is poised to grab a THIRD crystal football in the 2013-2014 season to make it a three-peat.
I'm thinking a playoff system might have prevented this.
It probably would have according to the columns talking about the bloodbath in question.

Yeah, there is no way ND would have been on the field if we had a playoff system.

True. But at the moment I can't think of any team that would have beat Bama, except maybe another SEC team.
Sure, they talk about Oregon and that incredible offence, but guess what? They were talking the same way about Oregon a year or so back when LSU beat the crap out of them in the first game of the season. Would such a win over Bama have been possible? Of course. Would it have been likely? Not really.
List of FBS teams at the end of the 2012 postseason with 12 FBS wins:
Alabama
Notre Dame
Ohio State
Stanford
But Oregon gets #2, in both the AP and BCS. Pfah.

I bet it would have been a much better game is all I'm sayin.

Indeed. I think so to.
Is the playoff starting next year? It's four teams right? Any idea how they will seed it?

I recall it wasn't starting until the 2014 season, but someone told me today that it was starting next season (or later this year). I'm not sure which is correct.
As far as how it's seeded, I think they'll keep the current system for ranking, pick the top 4 teams, and winnow them out from there. I believe the big bowl games (Sugar, Cotton, Rose, and Orange) will rotate hosting the playoff games. I may be wrong, but that's what I recall from first hearing the news.
