The SEC can suck it.

The problem is...so can FSU.

I'm not sure if rooting for a serious underdog miracle team to pull off another miracle and beat FSU is worth it...when that team is from the SEC.

I mean, they beat Alabama...and for that I will be eternally grateful.

Is that enough for me to suspend "the SEC can suck it!" for one night?

Is it worth, if Auburn somehow wins, having to hear about how great the SEC is for yet another year?

Fish on...

P.S. Watching Saban and Meyer lose in the last month has already given me a great College Football Gift, so nothing that happens tonight can erase my happiness

I think Jameis is a punk (see any footage of him walking from team bus to locker room), and very likely walked on a rape charge because he's a football player.

I'm rooting for Auburn.

Hard to pick this one.
Spread is 9 to 10.5
I'd prolly take Auburn and the points.


I've always liked FSU...Coach Bowden built some great teams and at 80-something is still sharp as a tack.
Fun to listen to.
Coach Fisher looks to have built another SEC buster.


Coach Malzahn was the man behind the curtain during the Chizik era.
He's the man now and brings his up-tempo read option designed to blow up SEC-type defenses.

FSU uses such a defense.

Should be a good one.

I don't really care who wins or loses this. No love for either team.
What I'm happy for is this is the last of this BCS format.
I'm looking forward to the four team play-off starting next year.
In my perfect college football world scenario, it will expand to eight teams sometime in the future.
SF

After Jan 1st and the Rose Bowl I pretty much could care less what the fat people in NY think should be the NC game. I don't think I've watched a single one.

As much as I love college football once Jan 2 rolls around I take off my college hat and put on my NFL hat!

Can I root for an earthquake to swallow the whole stadium?

IMO and realistically, FSU is going to roll the Tigers. My heart would like Auburn to win it, just because of how their season has turned out with (2) all time game winning plays to get there. That fact and that they raw dogged Saban on Nat'l TV in the most awesome way possible, which wins MEGA bonus points. But I just know I couldn't handle another SEC team winning it...again. So...

FSU 45 - Auburn 34

I think we're pretty much on the same page, Nick...except I think I'll root a bit harder for Auburn than FSU...but I'll defnitely be rooting for the earthquake the hardest.

If Auburn can stay within 20 I'll be surprised...that FSU offense is pretty potent.

Fish on...

Todd

HAHAHA - Nick Saban looks SOOOOO pissed sitting up there with ESPN Gameday boys. You can just tell he is stewing that he missed his shot at 3 straight (which nobody has ever done). Suck it Saban.

x 600 Billion Trillion Gazillion.

He and Urban Meyer should both have to be the commentators

Fish on...

Todd

Ok...watching the pre-game and saw highlights of Auburn beating Alabama, and it made me love Auburn all over again...I'm definitely rooting for them tonight, SEC be damned.

Fish on...

Todd

No - I forbid it. Don't give up on the earthquake Mister.

I don't like that they interview the coaches after the coin toss and before the kick-off. Let em' coach damn it. The dudes got like $1 million dollar bonuses riding on this crap. Jeez ESPN...

3 - 0 FSU

7 - 3 Auburn.

Does anyone know the name of the song with the horn section ESPN plays going to commercial?

Pusberger is looking for a big play for FSU so he can shoot his load on Winston. I hate the Pusberger more than anyone in sports.

It could be worse, they could have dierdorf calling the game.

More than Costa?

Costa's the worst. Smug little prick - don't you get all preachy on me. This is sports. STFU little man.


oooo....Auburn just put one in from 50.

Auburn is going all FSU...on FSU.

Fish on...

Todd

P.S. I still want the earthquake, but after that I will take Auburn.

Costas never took a dump on PAC 10 teams in almost every game in favor of eastern teams like Pusberger has.

I think a lot of commentators and fans focused to much on FSU's stats vice their level of competition.

Don't really care, but on the basis of FSU's F'd up moaning chant, I'm a War Eagle fan.

You still sore over the hanging chads?

This game is surprising to me.

FSU pulling out the fake punt. Nice.

TD FSU. 21 - 10 Tigers. FSU needed that before half. Winston is a pimp, but ya'll knew that.

Noles FG. 21 - 13 Tigers; 5 mins. 3rd. Noles got a spy on the wildcat = good halftime adjustment. Surprised they didn't start with that.

I thought Winston had better speed and ability to escape the rush. Guess not.
He's running like Dan McGwire tonight.

Two point conversion would tie the game...and now have to try from the 18. What a stupid penalty.


Fish on...

Todd

Tiger FG good. Auburn 24 - FSU 20. about 4 mins left. Gonna be a good ending.

I really thought FSU would walk, but the Tigers wore their big boy pants tonight.

Oh snap. FSU scored too fast!

Their kick returner did not look slow......

That little dude was blistering fast. He's gotta be sub 4.35. Daaaannnggg....

Mushmouth just said he's like the fastest freshmen in all of NCAA this year. 4.37. Blistering.

With over 4 minutes to go in this game I'd rather be Auburn down by 3 with the ball than FSU up by 3.

Fish on...

Todd

Sxhit...now Auburn left too much time!

Fish on...

Todd

Like I said - FSU scored too fast. It would have been better to be down and make a final drive to wear out the clock.

Yep - as typing Auburn scores.

31 - 27 Tigers with 1:19. FSU needs a TD to win. Don't kick to that little guy!

If Tigers win - every BCS bowl will have been won by the underdog

Holyshit. Auburn better step up now! 23 yards from the Championship for FSU.

Fish on...

Todd

Holy cow Todd - your feed is 30 seconds before mine?

Whoooo boy.

2 yard line. 17 seconds. 1st & goal.

TD Noles!!!!!

Wow.

Money drive

You guy's really need to go back and read your pre game posts. If there is a hall of shame, Todd and Nick are King and Queen. Not necessarily in that order.

Maybe the Tigers have one more 109 KO return in em'?

What a finish!

Fish on...

Todd

P.S. Auburn only needed one second to beat Alabama...they've got 13 now :-)

Hey Jet - I picked the winner at least!

Yeah, just like the Super Bowl, right?

Fish on...


Todd

P.S. That "it" your finger is on is your prostate.

Can Mushmouth possibly slobber over the SEC to any greater degree? "FSU won, but only because of the SEC".

Gawd....hack...puke. This is why I didn't want the Tigers to win. Even when the SEC loses, they still "win" somehow. GAH!

Chuck - how'd much money did you lose (again)?

Dude - how about from now on you just give me half, I kick you in the nuts and tell you the pick?

One last post on this...

In the postgame, Jimbo said Kermit, the little FSU guy that returned the kick for a TD - runs a 10.19 100 meters. 3rd fastest in high school - all time.

I love all the anti SEC comments, absolutely HILARIOUS!!!
Can't we just appreciate a great game and season for what it was?
You think the selection system is flawed now, well, just wait until next year with the new "play off system". SEC aint going anywhere. Just sayin.
