zenryan Posted December 1, 2013 Share Posted December 1, 2013 QUOTE (Rowand44 @ Nov 30, 2013 -> 08:50 PM) Ha Zenryan, I was just going to post that. Watch it happen. if it does, it'll only be fitting for the BCS as we know it to end in that fashion. An SEC team backs into another title game, another team that didnt even win their own division. haha, you know talk radio/ESPN is hoping for that.

cabiness42 Posted December 1, 2013 Share Posted December 1, 2013 One of the most famous plays in cfb history. Wow. I totally called the result of that FG attempt. Unfortunately only my 4 y.o. daughter was in the room when I said it, so I have no verification. That was the dumbest coaching decision ever. An Auburn TD is a far more likely outcome on that play than an Alabama FG. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

However, there appeared to be no coaching against the return or different personnel. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

danman31 Posted December 1, 2013 Share Posted December 1, 2013 As a Mizzou alum, I can't honestly see how a 1-loss SEC team would get in ahead of undefeated FSU/OSU. Undefeated is undefeated in a major conference. ESPN is hyping the 1-loss scenario, but someone needs to lose. MSU is fully capable to beat OSU, but that absolutely needs to happen. Some guy on ESPN was saying this is the worst Big Ten ever, which I think is wrong. I think it's a bit up from the past couple years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Because voters aren't going to put OSU at #10. Do you really think a one loss team jumps an undefeated team after 13 games? Im sure ESPN will talk about it enough for you to see every bit of info you desire. They too want an Sec team in the title game. @McMurphyESPN: In 15-year history, undefeated BCS AQ team never ranked behind 1-loss team in final BCS poll Edited December 1, 2013 by RockRaines Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Buehrle>Wood Posted December 1, 2013 Share Posted December 1, 2013 Putting Auburn ahead of Ohio State is ridiculous. Mizzou is going to pound them next weekend anyways. That said, it's still entirely possible Auburn gets put ahead of OSU using some basic math. Heck even if they were consensus number 1 in the computers and 3 in the human polls, that would mean a tie with Auburn. Obviously the formula is slightly more complex than than that, but you know there's going to be some ridiculous campaigning for them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LittleHurt05 Posted December 1, 2013 Share Posted December 1, 2013 So I hate Ohio State because they have the worst fan base in sports, but why are people writing them off against Florida State? They may give up 40 points, but they can score 49 on them. If they score enough to beat MSU, then watch out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bmags Posted December 1, 2013 Share Posted December 1, 2013 What about fsu this year makes you think they have a bad defense? Giving up 7 to Clemson in Clemson? They are certainly better than michigan that just gave up only 42 to them. Btw. Mizzous EJ Gaines held mike Evans to 8 yards on 4 catches. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cabiness42 Posted December 1, 2013 Share Posted December 1, 2013 There is zero chance that anybody jumps FSU or OSU. The SEC coaches will pull their usual BS and vote OSU down around 5th-7th like they did to ND last year, but it won't be enough. There is also zero chance that Alabama ends up ahead of the SEC champion, so Alabama needs both FSU and OSU to lose, and I don't see any way FSU loses.
