Hell of a play by Marshall to draw the defense and find the WR downfield wide open.

4th & 5 pass is tipped twice in the end zone & falls incomplete. UGA wins.

A blocked FG returned for a TD here would be awesome.

I was actually expecting it to be blocked & returned, didn't see that coming however.

I'm not sure anything is gonna top that for a finish, not with this much at stake and in a rivalry game.

Dont forget Mizzou. They win tonight and then Beat Auburn. Of course that may set up a OSU/FSU title game.

Should have just gone to overtime, can't believe the chances that your backup kicker makes it from 57 are anywhere near worth doing that

So Clemson takes the opening kick off moves the ball easily against SC and then tries a stupid double pass which gets picked off. (To be fair the WR was wide open just a floater of a pass from Sammy Watkins)

Then SC marches 80 yards and takes 8 minutes doing it.
7-0 SC

Wow, the difference between OT and a win was that he didn't put his heel down on that one stride.

Great day so far. Cuse wins, Penn State wins, Alabama loses, Duke wins, Georgia wins. Now if we can get A&M to lose and Stanford to win, it will be complete.

WVU/ISU about to go to OT. WVU was up by 28 earlier. Tied at 38.

Heh, I actually mentioned that here at home.

That one was an extraordinary circumstance. Might not have been safe to remain in the stands, I suspect that place was about to come down in pieces

Well, that unreal finish helped ease the loss for Wisconsin. Thanks Auburn!

Now I will just watch for good football here on out.

Wisconsin gets the Capital One bowl against the SEC CCG Loser now.. I think.

I'm searching. I've seen some amazing endings (the Broncos blocking two SD field goals in a row, the second after a late time out and ran back for a game winning TD, the miracle at the big house with Kordell and Westbrook, a bunch of things like those two. . . ) An ending like this? In a rivalry game with everything at stake? I think that's the best game I have ever seen. Amazing.

Agreed. Saban with a costly tactical error.

That's what I still don't get - why even Wisconsin was projected for a BCS bowl. Even if they had won today, they still would have been behind both OSU and MSU in every single poll. MSU had always been the better team and I guess now they go to the Rose.

A hypothetical poor showing by Michigan State in the conf title game was expected to push Wisconsin ahead of them.

Which is not something that can be said often. He made several coaching errors (not going for the shorter FG to go up by two scores earlier, etc.), but even more was the number of penalties that were very un-Saban team like.

Auburn must be one of the luckiest teams this year. First the win vs. UGA, now this! I wonder if Auburn ends up beating Mizzou in the championship game, will they get in over one of the undefeated teams.

Clemson has 2 first half turnovers YET still only down 7 at half.

If they can get SC off the field on 3rd down in the second half they have a chance.

My earliest memory of football was listening on the radio (the NFL blacked out home games then) to the Pat Summerall FG in the snow against the Browns. to get to the iconic OT game against the Colts.

But this one, and on the heels of the tipped pass TD over loathsome Georgia, well--"can you top this?" time it surely is.

If you are an Auburn fan, it can't possibly get any better, can it?

It's funny

As I was watching the start of the Bama game I was thinking about Sabans legacy. Everyone gives him credit for being one of the best ever, and likely rightfully so. He is an amazing recruiter nd gets his team ready, but my thoughts were he wins so many blow outs that we can't really fully judge his merit because he never coaches close games. Today's game at least gives some credence to my thoughts. There is no way he should have tried the FG there, only bad things can happen
