    What a stupid ending to the game. Great win for Ole Miss.

    How can you recover an onside kick and no time ran off the clock? But, Mississippi pulls it off! A team abandoned by its coach is now in the semi finals.

    They need to ban B10 referees from ever officiating a playoff game again after tonight’s debacle.

    ND couldn’t build a roster like Indiana or Miami because we’re somewhat restricted by transfer admissions.

    Here’s the data on how teams were built. The first number is recruited kids and the second is transfers.

    10.0%
    Ohio State

    I know it’s been mentioned before but an odd thread to this year’s final four…all four head coaches were on Saban’s staff at some time during his tenure at Alabama. Oddly, I don’t think any of them were on the staff at the same time.

    Ole Miss is my team now, 1) it would be a kick in the fruit basket to Kiffin and 2) Chambliss is a a great story, even better than Mendoza.

    I just want to see them stick it to 1 Miami and 2 Kiffin. 3 LSU who will owe him 1 million dollars.

    Plz tell me Kiffin gets NOTHING from Ole Miss post season success? The only thing he deserves is a kick in the cajones, but I'm pretty sure he sold those to the devil long ago...

    Nope he negotiated that LSU would pay him whatever incentives that Ole Miss would have owed him for any play off success that they had.

    The good thing is that since Golding is not an interim coach he gets the credit for every playoff win.
