Hold that thought, Cincinnati just scored to make it 38-30 on a missed extra point. ---

Cincy missed the PAT. That may haunt them. ---

Funny how that got turned around. Now Pitt missed one and they have to keep Cincy out of the endzone. ---

Crap Cincy won a defensive game 45 to 44. ---

The Illinois - Fresno State ending was the single craziest thing I have ever seen. ---

Now Alabama missed an extra point - and they’re playing in a dome! ---

The Civil War and Cincy vs. Pitt lived up to the hype. Let’s hope the SEC, Big 12, and ACC are just as good. ---

Alabama’s defense looks damn good today and their offense so far is punching holes down the field. ---

This is killing me. I’m “watching” the game on ESPN Gamecast, but it’s not autorefreshing. Looks like my Gators are getting killed, but they’re still in the game from a score perspective. ---

Looks like my Gators are getting killed, but they’re still in the game from a score perspective. You’re missing some good analysis. For example, and I quote “we know these are 2 good teams, but in a championship game it comes down to who plays best”. ---

Thanks. Not making me feel any better, but at least I’m not suffering in insolation. ---

Tebow’s Bible verse this week is John 16:33. A very odd choice. “I have told you these things, so that in me you may have peace. In this world you will have trouble. But take heart! I have overcome the world.” I have overcome the world? ---

Ingram is looking incredible. Keeps punching through. Certainly making a hell of a Heisman statement. I agree the commentary is particularly bad, but of course it’s CBS. What can you expect? ---

That was an amazing performance from Bama on both sides of the ball. ETA: And they’re still fighting their asses off and pushing the ball down the field! ---

Tebow’s tears were glorious. Alabama was fantastic. Their backs run angry, I like it. I hope TCU gets Florida and smashes them. I was Boise State and Cincinnati to win out too, I guess against… you know, I don’t even care. There aren’t any other teams that stand out. ---

How long before we forget this BCS silliness, and just award the National Championship to the SEC Champion? 😃 [Previous page](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/college-football-november-and-early-december-2009/516183.md?page=14) [Next page](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/college-football-november-and-early-december-2009/516183.md?page=16)
