Huge turnaround in the Penn State - MSU game. Penn State driving, down 10. Fumble and MSU takes it to the house. 20-3. As for Hackenberg, I really want to like the guy, we are bound to have a shot at him, but his total lack of pocket awareness is a problem in college, it will totally kill him in NFL. I really want to like the guy, I just cannot.

Nice start for Stanford. Hopefully they can keep Notre Dame out of any playoff discussion.
Go Cardinal!!!

That Stanford/ND game was the game of the season. Great finish with The Cardinal pulling it out at the end.

Gave them time to get the FG. Playoff pictures seems pretty straight forward. Oklahoma is in with their win. Iowa v MSU winner is in. Add Clemson and Alabama with wins next week.

Really want to avoid OU in the first round of the playoffs, hope Bama and OU are #2 and 3 and the Big10 champ gets the 4th seed. Now the the big question is do I go to the semi-final game or roll the dice and gamble they make it to the Championship game? Can only go to one game.

I really want to like the guy, I just cannot. Agree about Hackenberg, he just hasn't made the progression you would like to see from his freshman year till now. Has some decent skill sets, but still looks like a freshman at times. I dont see him as a first round guy, he may be an option in the second, but I don't even like him there.

If it was me, and I went to the semi-final and lost, I would be pissed that I spent the time and money to sit through a loss. If I went to the semi-final and they won, I would be kicking myself that I didn't wait for the finals. Either way, I hope you enjoyed the ride this team has given you -- when they lost Williams on opening day, I never expected this. DeShaun Watson is way better than I realized, and I really liked him last year. Still have a tough one with UNC next week though.

DeShaun Watson is way better than I realized, and I really liked him last year. Still have a tough one with UNC next week though. That's what I am thinking. IF they do in fact finish #1 and play the Big10 champ I will probably just plan on going to Arizona for the final game. A 2-3 match up against OU in Texas would be a brutal break for Clemson in the semis. I never wer really expected this much either from this team. I really thought this defense would take a big step backwards considering they lost so much talent to the NFL. Much like the SCAR game, I am really cautious about UNC. Hopefully they come out aggressive and throw the ball downfield. I hope Williams comes back next year because they could have a really good offense. They have a 5 star RB coming in next year and with Deon Cain and Williams on the outside and Artavis Scott in the slot and Gallman as a compliment at RB, this could approach the offense of 2012 when they had Watkins, Hopkins and Bryant with Ellington and Boyd.
