Right now all this means very little knowing we had our chances after a turnover instead we go 4 and out and at the 1 yard line. Sark's play calling in those two situations was deserving of our loss. I think this is ridiculous. Did we win a championship? No. We didn't win the SEC and we didn't win the National Championship. So nothing goes on the wall or whatever, though I guess we got a Citrus Bowl Trophy for whatever that is worth. But still finishing in the top 5 is a really good season. Sure I would rather finish first than fourth. But this whole "if you're not first you're last" shit is idiotic. And yeah we should milk back to back top five finishes for recruiting purposes and propaganda purposes. To do otherwise would be stupid and counter-productive.

January 21Jan 21 I take issue with the morons who had us outside the top five, and anyone with eyes and a brain can't seriously think we wouldn't torch the Ducks head to head.

January 21Jan 21 Everyone needs to keep in mind that Rece Davis was dropped on his head as a child. Repeatedly.
January 21Jan 21 I got no issues with Oregon ahead of us. 3 better wins (Boise, OSU, Penn St), 2 fewer losses, conference champs. 3, 4, IDMAS.
January 21Jan 21 Rece Davis is mad that we beat Bama's ass in their house and made Nick Saban the fucking cheater cry.

We were better when it mattered. They got shellacked by a team that just rolled everyone but Texas. I'm not handing the Ducks wins over Clemson and ASU, either. Ohio State lost 2 games in the regular season. No one isn't voting them first after the CFP.

Us and PSU finished T3rd or both made the "Final Four" I've always thought that in the absence of a third place game, both teams who lost the semi-finals should finished tied for 3rd. You can quibble about X lost by this much and Y lost by fewer points, so Y should be higher, but in the end, there's no "on the field" way to settle who is 3rd and who is 4th.

I agree, but the play was the screen before halftime. If that doesn't happen, we kick a filed goal on 4th down there to go up, and bleed as much clock as possible, instead of just playing for a tie/overtime.

But you/we don’t know that the rest of the game would have played out like it did if that had happened. We might not have been in a go-ahead situation there, but goddamn I wish I could know the answer to that question. That was as big of a first half gut-punch as it gets…
