Bad no call on that 3rd down.

Someone remind me why a 1 loss MAC team is in a BCS bowl game?

Florida State is pathetic at letting teams hang around.

They should be up like 21-3.

NIU QB needs to pick it up if he's going to back up all his talk.

[The_Douger]

He just looks unathletic and slow to me. They've got to stop running him. Going to have to win it with his arm.

Three QB runs. Looks like BYU's O this year.

If it wasn't the Big East then it would have been the B1G.

I think Riley Nelson is to blame.

You can also blame the addition of a national title game and the watered-down qualifying standards as well, too.

Thanks for that..

Thanks for that..

FWIW, I don't think the slow-mo GIF does it justice.

Cox approached the coach to interview him, but he kept walking, saying he had to get to the trophy ceremony. She followed him and said "but you've got to do an interview first". He turned around and gave a half-hearted answer to a typically-crappy sideline reporter question, while slowly walking toward the trophy ceremony the entire time. She went to ask a follow-up but he walked away saying "sorry, the trophy ceremony". She said setting like "but we're not done yet" before she was forced to throw it back to Musberger and Herbstreet. She then said "are you kidding?" when she thought her mic was off. Only it wasn't, of course.

A few minutes later she got another interview with him, and he was no more excited to be doing it.

I understand that coaches get somewhat annoyed with reporters at times. But I wonder how many of them would stick around to coach if you took away all of the TV money and any/all media coverage of their team (which would result in more lost revenue).

Honestly, you can't have it both ways. Without the media, you aren't getting paid and very few folks are showing up to your games. Maybe it is your least favorite part of your job...but let's be honest - we all have parts of our job that we dislike.

So - I couldn't help but notice that a number of teams playing in pretty good bowl games were playing their 3rd QB of the season after the first 1-2 were injured.

Hmmmm.

Wow, I wonder how the d-lineman who didn't even touch Clowney feels about that play?
