Oregon State 30  Florida 3

At least the Pac-12 will not have an 0-fer and the SEC will not win them all!

Just suffered a gut punch at the end of the Tony the Tiger Sun Bowl, with UCLA losing to Pittsburgh on a late field goal and an intercepted Hail Mary, 37-35.

I think the defending national champions will at least make it back to the CFP final game.

Go Dawgs!

Nothing like good defensive games played in the National Semifi----oh, I'm sorry.  It kind of reminded me of Arena Football or 7-on-7 practice.  I saw Princeton Tigers basketball game scores lower than these two games--when they had Pete Carril coaching there.

Don't get me wrong, I do like the occasional high scoring game, like 47-45 (Hail Flutie!).  However, with Georgia and Michigan giving up 12.8 ppg and 13.4 ppg respectively going into the National Semifinal games, one would have expected scores like 24-23 or 33-27, not 42-41 and 51-45.  But, that is the way College Football is going nowadays.

Wake Forest and ACC career TD pass leader Sam Hartman is transferring to Notre Dame as a grad transfer.

There haven't been many worse obliterations in championship games than Georgia's 65-7 thrashing of TCU.  I guess famously the Chicago Bears beat the Washington Redskins 73-0 in the NFL championship game in 1940.  That game was "only" 28-0 at halftime; Georgia had a 38-7 lead at halftime tonight.

Kent State and Auburn played Georgia better than TCU did.

Another two "obliterations" in championship games, though not to the extent of Georgia's, were San Francisco defeating Denver 55-10 in Super Bowl XXIV and Washington defeating Denver 42-10 after spotting them a 10-0 lead before scoring 35 points in the second quarter of Super Bowl XXII.

Only reason I watched until the end of the 3rd was for the new Ant Man trailer  :-D

Once they picked off TCU just before halftime and got the ball back first in the 2nd half I knew it was over

Boy, I just took a glance at the box score for the Georgia-Michigan game. I'd attribute the 34-11 score more for Michigan's hilarious meltdown than Georgia dominating them for most of the contest. You can pretty much tell that once Georgia went past two touchdowns, there wasn't any comeback to be had. Gonna be a long, blue off-season for the Wolverines for sure.
