EMBARRASSED:
- The BYU - Utah Holy War was strange, very strange. I don't know that I have ever seen a game like that. BYU lost their first five possessions and the Utes scored on each one from short fields, making the game 35 - 0 in the 1st quarter! Then BYU woke up and prevented Utah from scoring anymore yet still lost 35 - 28. What an interesting way for Mendenhall to end his BYU career. September 10, 2016 will be interesting.
- Michigan State: I was a believer after the Iowa game and how well MSU handled a good Iowa team. But apparently it was a facade.
- Iowa: Again, a believer because they did so well in the BIG10 championship against MSU. But they never stood a chance against Stanford.
- The BIG10 in Bowls: 50%
- UCLA losing to Nebraska. Nothing against the Huskers but they have struggled this year and UCLA should have taken this one.
- Florida State...finding it tough to recapture the Winston era.
- Oregon, for blowing a great lead.
PROUD:
- Tennessee and Michigan looked dominant in their wins and ready for 2016.
- TCU, for a comeback win in 3OT with a QB no one had heard of before.
- Bama and Clemson showed why they are ranked #1 and #2. They man-handled their opponents in the semi-finals. That is the right match-up.
- McCaffrey: Why did he just get publicity late in the season. I wish I would have watched more of his games.
- The SEC in Bowls: 80%
- Any team who slipped into bowl play with only five wins, and won!
- UGA without head coach, OC and DC did just fine and Smart seems the right guy for a shot at turning things around (but I'll really miss Richt).
