Yep, congrats to Baylor. They broke the game open in the 3rd quarter, and did a great job of their defense feeding off of their offense. Art Briles has done one hell of a job in Waco.

I can't tell if I'm watching amazing offenses or atrocious defenses.

Very tired defenses for sure..read option is tough to defend. Even tougher if they're constantly chasing.

This video game has the worst defensive AI I've ever seen. Where's the beer tent?

I vote craptastic defenses.... Pulling for both FSU and Ohio St (feel dirty saying that)- don't want either of these defenses in the championship game.

Ohio State just gave up 40+ to Michigan so it's not like they have much to hang their hat on either.

Biggest win in Coastal's short history and they await the Furman/NDSU winner, and it looks like it will be North Dakota State now as they have pulled out to a 30-7 lead.

Yeah, that was a huge win. Montana is really tough at home and has a great FCS tradition so congrats.

We looked off in the first half, but came out and really took charge in the second. Welcome to Fargo, it was only 110 db in there today. Next week should be more of the same. Go Bison.

Yeah. I think it was part of the deal they made to get more money to keep Boise in the fold.

Why not kick the field goal there? They needed 2 recovered onside kicks and a FG at some point. At least put the team in position to try that first onside kick.

During the OU-OSU game, the OSU kicker made a field goal while an earthquake was occurring. A real, actual earthquake, not seismic meters picking up stadium effects.

Also, congrats to Rice for beating Marshall, to give the Owls their first conference title since 1957. I guess they were inspired by their performance in Kodos's NCAA 13 Online Dynasty.

Stanford up 28-7, rushed for 200+ yards so far. How this team lost to Utah and USC, I don't know.

Someone should tell Gary Pinkell that sending his LBs to the Manti Te'o Summer LB Clinic was probably a bad idea...

The problem for Duke is they still have to outscore FSU.

Rooting for Florida State just because I don't want to see another all SEC national championship game, and Ohio State looks dead in the water.

I thought OSU had a higher gear than MSU, but they don't have a gear right now.

Chick was pretty cute who won the dr pepper 100k at halftime of osu/msu.

She pushed (like a basketball pass) the balls in while the guy threw em normal. Good strategy, girl.

They have to be top 14 in the BCS. If they lose will they drop out of the top 14?

I still want him fired, but...at least they didn't completely lay the egg.

What bowl game is Duke headed to with the probable loss?

Sun Bowl vs UCLA seems to be the most common projection

With an MSU loss they will still be top 14 I think. Niu losing helped a lot. Asu losing helps too.

MSU would have to lose big to not go. Although, with the 24 point run it might be in the works.

Only way they don't go if they lose is if Auburn somehow jumps Ohio State.

Rose Bowl is taking a B1G/Pac 12 match up in their 100th year anniversary.

I would say its a 99.9% guarantee the B1G gets 2 BCS bowls since NIU lost.

Florida State demolishes Duke in the ACC Championship game, and ABC reporter Heather Cox asks Jamies Winston four consecutive questions regarding the alleged rape charges (although the prosecution decided there was not enough evidence to go to trial.)
