Sounds like Herbstreit thinks they should just anoint Alabama the winner and send them to the title game. I'm getting close to turning the sound down.

MSU looks tight, they need to relax.

MSU needs to throw some shorter passes. Cook is going to get killed if he keeps waiting in the pocket for the passing routes to develop.

Crossed my mind.

INT. Don't like Sparty's chances now. What's on Netflix?

"The Wrecking Crew" is an outstanding documentary, and it's on Netflix right now.

Chinatown, The French connection, and Von Ryan's Express are 3 others that I really enjoy that are on Netflix.

Connor Cook looks terrible. They might wanna let the backup start the second half.

You may be sarcastic here so I will bite. He has made some nice throws when he isnt getting killed. The backup would get smeared. No running game to take pressure off. Bama is pretty salty on D.

Thanks. If it gets to 17-0 might be switching.

Can't believe they overturned that. Has Bama been flagged for anything yet? I've seen some holding up front but no hankies.

Clemson is a lock to win the title, unless the refs seriously help Bama.

I don't know if I would go as far to call them a lock, but they have looked the most impressive out of the 4 teams so far today. They're a lot better than I thought.

This is over. Sparty can't run, and Cook doesn't have time to throw effectively enough to sustain a drive, especially when Bama k knows he has to throw.

This is why I was hoping Osborne and Alvarez would hopefully influence the committee to keep Sparty at 4. Of course after tonight, I'm not so sure Sparty beats them.

Obvious intentional grounding on Alabama, and the refs pick up the flag. Good Lord.
An official is standing right at the line of scrimmage, and can clearly see the ball landed a yard or two behind him-and they say the ball crossed the line of scrimmage. Is the guy blind, or not paying attention? How in the name of heaven can you blow that call? There are mistakes, and there are blatantly obvious miscalls. That one official should be fired and never work another game again.

How about Sparty make some plays. Dropping the ball and Cook throwing crucial int before half doomed them. D has played well but they can't keep holding up when offense isn't doing anything..

Yeah the INT right before halftime was a killer. MSU looked like they were back in the game, but that crushed any momentum they had.

Has Cook gone mental? He is throwing passes that he has no business throwing. Never seen him look so lost. I know part of it is Bama's defense, but he is trying to throw the ball THROUGH Bama players.

And according to some he is the most pro ready QB in college. Personally, I think he made a huge mistake coming back for his Sr year.

Whether MSU could score the ball enough to win was the question. I think even if they get the FG or TD before half, it wouldn't have mattered. Bama is s complete team and MSU had obvious weaknesses.
