Go Auburn

Go Sooners

ASU hangs on, BYU had it around the 3rd yard line

OK -- I'm a uniform geek, and I'm not liking the Notre Dame all blue duds with the shiny gold numbers. 

Just doesn't look very Notre Dame-ish.

ASU would have deserved to lose for handling that last minute so horribly. Just run the damn ball and score.

A couple of things have gone our way since the loss today but bummer that PSU won.

Oklahoma beating Bama would make me feel a lot better about our playoff chances. Go Sooners (never dreamed I would say that).

Hopefully sanders gets a suspension don’t think you can put your hands on an official

I agree. They'd look much more Notre Dame-ish if the shiny Gold read "Insufferable" on the front.

A damn strong start from ND. We're probably going to have to pin our hopes on Oklahoma tonight.

Good point. A&M loss would essentially eliminate them. 

[RaceToTheTop]

Auburn touchdown on their opening drive.

[RaceToTheTop]

Missed FG for A&M.  Auburn still up 7-0

[RaceToTheTop]

Auburn 14, A&M 0.

[Hoosierfan1901]

Auburn looking good 

[RaceToTheTop]

Auburn owning A*M so far.

BTW, there are some weird scenarios in the SEC where Texas A&M can get to the SEC title game despite losing to Auburn and having three losses overall.  

[BtownStrength]

OU misses a FG, still 3-0 Bama lead

I’m ready for the 2nd ACC team over a 4th Big Ten team debate they will spin this week.

[TheWatShot]

Went on youtube and two of the suggestions were oddly similar to what went down today: OSU running a fake punt while up 49-10 against Rutgers and BYU being gifted multiple opportunities at the end of a game when fans had rushed the field.

Boise State tied at the half with 2-8 Wyoming.

SMU has clinched the ACC title berth.  The other ACC team will either be Miami or Clemson.  Miami has the inside track since they control their own destiny.

Miami plays their final game at 8-3 Syracuse.  If the Hurricanes win, they will play SMU in the title game;  if not, Clemson will play SMU.  Clemson's last game is non-conference against South Carolina.

SMU's only loss was an 18-15 loss to BYU.  And while they have a couple of wins that were ranked 16 and 22 when they played them, they have not beaten anyone currently ranked in the top 25.

IMO, SMU and Clemson can only make the playoffs IF they win the conference championship game.  I can't imagine SMU losing the conference championship and then making the CFP.  I also don't think Clemson could lose the championship game and make the CFP.  The only question is whether Miami could. 

So for it even to be a discussable topic IMO, Miami would have to win at Syracuse next week and then the following week lose to SMU.  But IMO a loss to a team that would not currently be in the CFP in their conference championship could knock them out anyway.
