    Wake wins it with field goal with 3 seconds to go, 30 - 28.

    Terry, I'm sure you were watching the Notre Dame game all day, I was switching back and forth but watched more of Ole Miss since they are SEC.

    Anyway, Jevan Snead who committed to the Gators, then switched to Texas and left for Ole Miss when he didn't get the starting job at Texas would have been the star of the day if Ole Miss had won. He looks very good.

    Hard to believe Wake is as good as they have been the last few years, that goes along with the parity topic earlier today. But they have a heck of a coach.

    Coach O recruited very well at Ole Miss. He had been pointing to this team since he got the job, but he didn't get the chance to coach them. In terms of personnel, I thought Ole Miss was better.. However, I give the coaching nod to Wake.

    Snead did look very good from the little I saw of the game. While I wish he would have stayed at Texas, we have nobody behind Colt McCoy but IMHO he never would have beaten out Colt. I thought the same thing when I was looking at Brantley on the sideline, if he's happy waiting 2 or 3 years behind Tebow, I wish he'd decided to wait behind Colt!! :)

    Terry, Brantly is a redshirt freshman and Tebow is a junior. If Tebow goes pro after this year then Brantly will probably be the QB next year. If Tebow stays another year then he would be a junior when he takes over.

    I think Tebow has always intended to stay 4 years but I understand there are some rule changes with the NFL that would limit signing bonus's starting after the next draft. So whether or not he stays for his senior year is in question.
