I think CCC's mouth is part of it. Part of it was that it was the 1st game on a Friday night. Part of it is the butthurt by the SEC for Tennessee getting embarrassed. Part of if is elitism and they just see IU's history.

At the end of the day, they all played 60 minutes and it lost by the least amount. It's not like it was against ND's scrubs.

OSU called off the dogs with 8 minutes left in the game. Tennessee scored their last touchdown against second and third team players. Because we scored late doesn't negate the fact that we scored. The final score is all anyone will remember years from now. And we weren't down three scores to OSU in the first half. This SEC promotion is just a marketing ploy by ESPN. It's so transparent that even a blind man could see it. The bigger the playoff field, the bigger the discrepancy between the best teams and the rest of the field will be. Nobody complains when a 16th seed plays a1 seed in college basketball. Teams play their way in based on their record. I'm tired of hearing the bs about who belonged and who didn't. If you want in, beat the teams on your schedule. End of rant.

And they make terrible arguments that “the only two ranked teams IU has played have beat them” as if playing a top 25 team at home is the same as playing a featured game on the road against two top 5 teams.

That game just went into OT. 

Nothing like free Bulldong football.

And the Northern Illinois Huskers beat them in OT.

Purdue's Max Klare commits to Ohio State.  Had 51 catches for 685 yards last season.

The guy that pisses me off the most is Herbstreit! I really cannot stand that guy, the way he makes all of those stupid faces when he is listening to Al Michaels to give the impression he really gives a **** what Al is saying! Pompous know it all...I still say Notre Dame is a lot better than people give them credit for, I'm no fan and usually root against them, but I wouldn't be too upset if they won it all!

One last thing while I am venting, that 98 yard run was a fluke play, ND did not run all over us, you take that play, that one long pass down to about the 2 yard line, and the FG at the end of the first half that they should never have gotten because grounding should have been called....that's 17 points. We stunk the place up, it happens, but we deserved our shot, we earned it!

Herbstreit’s a freaking loser. Dude spent all weekend twerking for the SEC, watched Tennessee get throttled live, and then went right back to “I don’t want to hear about wins” immediately after. Utter clown behavior.

Rumblings that Desean Jackson will be the new coach at Delaware State. The MEAC becoming The Cradle of Coaches Who Were Fun Dudes To Watch is an interesting and welcomed development.

My favorite part of USC with their backup QB and a million guys sitting it out beating Texas A&M is that A&M was, like, the go-to win for all of the SEC teams making a playoff argument.

“Indiana hasn’t beaten anybody and _________ has a big-time win over Texas A&M.”

I think we all can agree that the Poptart bowl should be a Playoff bowl.
