I'm enjoying this game :D!

Thanks. I do disagree with where you put Alabama, they lost quite convincingly to Oklahoma. The Rose Bowl was somewhat closer, but not really much of an upset (except for the turf-accountants). I think I would be pushing Alabama below Stanford.

And you are quite mistaken about Monday's game, Auburn will actually win, leaving 3 teams tied at 13-1 – such fun. I kind of lament the playoff idea, controversy and dispute is what college football should be about.

I think Auburn will be number 1 after this ^^

Florida St. isn't looking impressive on either side of the ball tonight, and winston definitely isn't living up to the hype.

Oh, now hold on, 0:05 in the half, time for one more play, 4th down, why punt, why no try a run?

I'm watching intently. Auburn alum, but not even a football fan until about 4 years ago (the year before Cam Newton). Now, I don't miss a game.

Not watching but I wagered on more passing TD's over rushing TD's in the 2nd half in ESPN streak for the cash :D

This is what happens when you get in the national championship by pounding on undeserving D2 teams... Finally FSU plays a real team.

I'm starting to have Deja Vu with last year... ;)

ROFL. That sucks...

What did you expect? The Florida St. defense has been out there for what? 10 min? and with Auburn just running the ball it's going to wear you down.

That was a good game!

I would've liked to see another SEC team win it in the last BCS game (SEC has won it since the game was first introduced).

Bring on the playoffs next year!

Congrats to FSU. That was one hell of a comeback.

I can't complain though for Auburn's season, especially after last year!

Agreed. I'm glad that there will be a playoff, I think a 4 team playoff is too limited. However, it is way better than the BCS. Thank goodness that monstrosity is finally dead.

While I agree a 4-team playoff is only a minor improvement, at least the NCAA (and affiliates) recognize the need for a playoff. Who knows, now that there actually is a playoff, I'm sure down the road they'll realize that and get it to the appropriate number of teams.

Agreed. I expect we'll eventually get an 8-10 team playoff.
