2012 official bowl season thread

[All-American]

I have a lot of Catholic friends (mostly from high school) and my Facebook feed today has been fascinating. A couple of hours ago people were coming out of the woodwork to state their support for "God's team." Then the game begins and the complaints of religious bias begin, from the announcers to the refs (who obviously don't want a Catholic team to win). And then very quickly to the "it's obvious which team actually get an education and which team just plays football" card.

To be fair, it's not like they're wrong on that last count.

If ND doesn't score a TD on this drive, I'm giving up and hitting the gym. I'm serious this time!

[OceanBlue]

Is that a good interception ?

Does Teo's stock go down for the NFL ?

Wow. Domination.

Kiss my ass.

Then Stanford owes a double apology to everybody for both beating Oregon and losing to Notre Dame.

Especially the way Saban complained earlier this year about fast play I would have liked to see an Oregon-Bama matchup.

Don't kid yourself, Oregon would get rolled by this Bama team. They are run based and Bama its built to stop the run. A lesser auburn defense stopped Oregon. An up-tempo passing team is a different story.

That was roughing the passer? LOL.

The refs threw ND a bone on that drive. LOL.

Does anybody know if the Utes receive any conference share of the BCS money won by Stanford and Oregon?

We have facilities to pay for dammit.

Kiss my ass.

I didn't know you played at Bama.

I believe they do. I think the Utes have always been able to get a full share of bowl money, but not the tv revenue for the first two seasons. Next year is a full share of everything.

Lacy looks like a video game player out there. Juke, stiff arm, spin, burst. And Cooper is securing his spot in the 2015 draft.

And to add a cherry on top, a cute co-worker of mine just texted me about the game. Roll Tide!!!

I do sport two degrees from there and had many good friends that were football and basketball players. But really the above comment is as much directed at the other person as anything.

This game just further highlights the decline of the Big 12. Kansas State was the Big 12's BCS representative. Sad. And Texas A&M got sweet revenge on the Sooners, big time.
