Auburn simply was a team of destiny this season, capping a miracle season of last second victories with yet another one, this time over the Quack Attack, who had nothing going on in the red zone and for some reason, often left All America defensive tackle Nick Fairley unblocked.... Big win for UCF over Georgia....It used to be the East, but the SEC West is a muscle flexing division with three heavyweights and the Coach of the fifth best team the most sought after in the country....Michigan and Michigan State got pummelled on New Years Day, which got one of the Coaches fired. Rich Rod is done, and now Brady Hoke comes to Ann Arbor. He can coach, so good things are in store for Michigan....LSU looked strong in the bowl game, as did Stanford in punishing Virginia Tech, who had won 11 in a row...TCU got it done against Wisconsin, winning one for the little guys....Alabama destroyed Michigan State, and on that day the Tide could have beaten anyone...The Big Ten remains outclassed in bowls, and even ring leader Ohio State barely held off an apparently inept Arkansas.

Even with Taylor Martinez injured, most felt Nebraska could once again use physicality to control the line of scrimmage and defeat Washington, a team the 'Huskers took the throttle off in blasting 56-21 earlier this fall. Not so fast! In what can only be described as a horrendous performance, Nebraska got whipped physically by the Huskies, 19-7. Martinez, playing hobbled, was re-injured, and that unsurprisingly ended the hopes of the Big Red in this game. One can only hope the Big Red learns something from this, from the very top down to the water boy, and offense some offense going forward. It was that bad.

Welcome to the Chik-fil-A Bowl, courtesy of FSU corner Greg Reid. I see you Greg Reid! Reid blasted All America freshman running back Marcus Lattimore, sending him to showers and setting the tone for a big win for the Seminoles. FSU did lose Christian Ponder early, but behind an aggressive defensive effort and some nicely timed offense, Florida State served notice of what the future holds not only in the ACC, but nationally. Job well done Coach Fisher.
