Doesn't appear to be much interest in this game but it's the only game tonight so might as well create a thread for it. Telecast starts at 8:00/5:00 PM at ABC.

OK! What an exciting showdown! We have the best team in the country, unstoppable 12-0 Auburn getting a chance to show just how good they are against...

 

a two-loss team who lost to NC State before finally cracking the top ten at the end of the season.

 

Gotta love the bowl system.

But VaTech's other loss was a tight game against USC.

 

I can't explain away the NCSU loss though.

 

And at least Auburn gets some viable competition, as opposed to Utah getting a Pitt team that so backdoored into the bowl system, their head was in the ground.

Well at least Utah caught Pitt and anally raped them.

And if it wasn't for that phantom PI call....

Carlos Rogers being on the big stage is going to make his draft stock rise big time. There are only two CBs I'd take over Rogers in the draft at this point. Those being Marlin Jackson and Rolle.

I'd rank the cornerbacks:

 

 

1. Rolle

2. Rogers

3. Adam "Pac-Man" Jones

4. Marlin Jackson

Why isn't Jason Campbell getting any recognition? You here all the talk about Leinart, Rogers, and Smith but nothing on Campbell. I think its bullshit personally.

Cause he's not the top threat on his own team.

Carnell Williams and Ronnie Brown are the stars of the Tigers ahead of Campbell.

 

Gotta be the star to get an ounce of recognition.

Wow, the Va Tech run defense just got slapped in the face on the first carry of the game.

 

Ouch.

 

They rebounded nicely though, held Auburn to a field goal.

3-0

VT should feel pretty lucky they only gave up 3 there. Auburn should have gone play action right after that 30+ yard run.

I don't think there was much of a chance of a split national title but this pretty much solidifies a single champion.

Not to mention that Auburn almost lost their ass. Auburn didn't win the game, VT lost it for themselves by:

A - missing a field gold five feet away from the kickers face.

B - Throwing a pass to the endzone to a wide open guy that was thrown about ten feet over the receivers head.

C - Stupidly fumbling the ball on that fake field goal attempt.

 

Auburn has no case for a split title - Just because they are undefeated doesn't guarentee you that spot anymore. Besides, after tomorrow night there will be 3 undefeated's and you either split it 3 ways or give it all to one.

As well as Utah has played, I'm not fully convinced they should share the title. So the winner of the Orange Bowl should take it outright. Tough shit for Auburn fans, I say.

I can't ignore that Auburn was five minutes from shutting out the 10-22 9th-ranked ACC Champion that could have been 12-0 coming in without a couple of unfortunate happenings. Unless either USC or OU totally manhandle the other team tomorrow night, Auburn is still my #1 team.

Auburn is willing to play the playoff game...if the other team is willing then throw them in the SuperDome for a game. God knows the Saints won't be needing to use it for awhile.

how many really difficult teams did Utah beat though? Auburn was going through ranked teams like no tommorow.

Of course they are. Oklahom or USC, won't care what Auburn wants.
