The state of South Carolina was very well represented in its bowl games yesterday and today. Glad to see Michigan take it on the chin. :biggrin:

Maybe the game will be good but the Rose and Orange are about the worst games in the BCS era imo.

The Cap 1 and Outback turned out to be solid matchups.
UCONN was 7-5 and unranked but went to the Orange Bowl against Oklahoma. At least NIU is ranked and only has 1 loss. Still, they don't deserve to be there IMO.

My goodness...
Mine too! Goodness gracious! That has to be one of the very top plays of the year or decade or century and especially after the refs goof up. Clowney is a stud big time. The only thing that would make it better is if he was doing it for the Tide.

If that back wasn't awake, that hit woke him up. There's got to be something wrong with those helmets flying off like that.

So what do you guys think about that head zebra for this game covering his mouth and that call against Carolina....very uncool.
I liked what the ESPN announcer said (Mike Tirico) while the ref was doing that. Something to the effect of if there were any signals no one wanted to steal on the field, it would be the officials so why cover the mouth.

Anyone have a pic of the bad spot/first down call? I saw it live and felt it was 6 inches short and little by little the ball seemed to get closer and then when it was obviously 2" short they call it a first down. Someone needs to check that refs bank account.

Here's one - not a great pic but you get the 'point'.
