LSU get a 3 point win and the title is: LSU boots Alabama in overtime

OSU gets a 7 point win and the title is: OSU escapes

Don't you just love how the media likes to play with words.

we do that here too. Oregon get's THRASHED in title game... 3 point game on last second field goal.

Everyone has an angle. It's sad that those that are supposed to be fairly objective in the media let their bias run over.

yeah the media has been absolutely awful with their bias

just like with Denard Robinson, he completely sucks yet they cherry pick his stats to make him look good.

then even before the season they were terrible

when they tried to hype Notre Dame they would name off a bunch of people no one's heard of and act like they're good.

Although I'm a Wolverine fan, I'll try to be objective. He doesn't completely suck. He was recruited to play in a wide open spread offense that featured his abilities to run the ball. He is being asked to do things that aren't in his skill set. Next week he should be able to exploit a baffling unexceptional Nebraska defense. Perhaps the media won't have to "cherry pick" his stats next week.

seems like "boots" refers to the FG

But, But, SEC fans claim Aub just played poorly, nobody else is allowed to make that claim, it's always "the SEC defense is the reason you played poorly"

The difference is that LSU beat the #2 team in the nation that had looked unstoppable to that point.

Oklahoma State nearly lost to a team that OU beat 58-17 and that Eastern Kentucky almost beat.

Eh, that's typical SEC media teabagging. I remember in '09 after Texas played Wyoming, we beat them 41-10, but were tied at halftime 10-10. Bama was playing FIU that same day and were struggling in the 1st half against FIU, with the halftime score being 20-14 in Bama's favor. Bama winds up beating FIU 40-14. I remember reading ESPN the following day and the headlines read, "Texas finally puts away Wyoming in 2nd half" and "Bama dominates FIU".........
