I'm not much into College football, but Auburn looks to be more dominant in this game.

Not seeing much from the Ducks' "Blur" Offense.

Cam Newton's pretty darn good, and #90 on the Tigers is like a man among boys. ;)

I had no real interest in the outcome, and got tired of the commercial timeouts.

This game had so much potential to be an offensive shootout, but both teams literally got taken out of their game plans by the freakin TV networks.

I stopped watching just before halftime...

Is that why it seemed that the Ducks weren't "Blurring"? So much was made of it in their regular season that I thought it'd be cool to see in the BCS game.

But I guess its more about money than good football. :(

I was reading today that these teams had 37 days off before the title game last night! That's pretty rediculous, and maybe part of the reason it wasn't an explosive-matchup it was anticipated to be.

The last 5 minutes or so sure we're fun to watch though.

Same thing happened in the Rose Bowl, if you think about it - Wisconsin and TCU had 43 ppg average ... and ended up with an almost identical score to this game. The long layoff between the end of the regular season and bowl season really does skew whatever rankings they end up with, I think. You can always make the argument that it says a lot about which coach is able to keep his team ready and able to play at a high level after a month off, but they don't really rank the coaches.

In the last 20 years, the SEC has ponied up 12 National Championship Teams. They have delivered a team to the National Championship "game" in 16 of the Last 20 years. Game in quotes because of the Bowl Alliance and Bowl Coalition years. And this season makes 5 in a row.
