    I havent seen Penn State play this physical in a long time. Some serious popping going on.

    Lets say they go do the same thing Houston did and schedule big-time non-conf schedule. Say they go beat Penn St, Florida St, and Oklahoma(three top fifteen type teams), they'd have a pretty awesome shot. At that point, I think the committee would have to throw them a bone for beating the B1G Champ, the Big 12 Champ, and a top 3 ACC team.

    They'd have to get really f'ing lucky and hit on one or two of those two teams becoming a conference champ....and not lose a single game.

    Is this Penn St or a Minnesota team out there?
    I don't care how the vote ended up. They still suck and always will.

    WTF were they thinking? Youve got all of your time outs and 1.20 on the clock and you go for the home run ball? JFC

    Well there's that...But how about Penn state's play calling on the drive before USC tieing TD...AND the Vikings prevent that allowed USC to tie the game. Wow.

    And seriously...Why was that game so long? Did the cotton bowl run long and I just didn't realize it?

    And there is the rub WMU had absolutely no chance at the playoff before they even took a snap.
