None of the other games matter. The champion already played, Friday night in the Sugar Bowl.

Sorry, the Sugar Bowl is the game that didn't matter. Neither team is going to be NC. The Utes had a great season, and played a great bowl game.

But come next week, if you want to see the 2008 National Championship trophy, you will have to travel to either Gainesville or Norman.

Wow, the University of Phoenix is getting their monies worth out of that toaster of a stadium. This (the Fiesta Bowl) has to be the forth game played there this week! :eek:

And who is the play by play guy on air tonight? He's bad. Sounds like a high school commentator. No emotion. He sounds computer generated. :mad:

don't bash matty v. i think he's a great announcer, first heard him do padre games back in 2002-ish. and the no emotion comment is very inaccurate, he's very emotional and very enthusiastic to the point that he may go overboard sometimes, but he's grade a quality.

I miss the CBS and ESPN announcers from the regular season :(

Ohio State is looking pretty good
Texas off to a slow start... and their defense is looking vulnerable
(imagine that from a Big 12 school)

1st quarter ending with a missed field goal this time

3-0 Ohio State

Well, we know it won't be Athens. ( Maybe UGA should switch over to the ACC to get away from the Gators? ) ;)

Wow, the Buckeyes are looking good! Texas needs to find an answer to Beany Wells, 'cause that kind of running game just gets better as the game goes on!

You ain't kiddin... the Texas defense is showing how soft it is
Also, the Texas offense has no "pop" to it

Texas needs to find a way to keep those broken plays from being long gains

So far... a good game

I worry about the Buckeye's not being able to punch it in though, Texas can make up 3 points in a few seconds.

Is it just me, or is OSU not using Beany so much when they get down in close?

Never expected a 6-3 half (still a minute left)
That is surprising... very surprising

That is because almost no one here gave Ohio State a chance! I predict there will be a Chris Wells touchdown in the second half! I also predict Ohio State wins 16-9 if this keeps up!

Chance or no chance for Ohio State... I didn't expect the score to be this low
I thought they would both score... often, but Texas would outscore them

i predicted wells to run for 150 and 2 td's and pryor to rush for over 50 with 1rushing and 1passing.

i think i predicted osu to win by 7 or 10, i forget

No TD's yet... so they are going to have to hurry to score those 28 points ;)
Pretty ambitious score

Bad call of helmet to helmet contact that leads to a touchdown. Bummer.

P-Worm

Edit: Texas is really turning it on. It's still close but I think Texas is going to have 17 in just a minute or two.
 
3 and outs for Ohio State in the 2nd half

Texas is wearing them down now
17-6 and Ohio State has no answer so far in this half
The hurry up, no huddle offense is killing them
