Great football game!

Seriously, Wisconsin had been getting 4-5 yards at will and can't pass for crap. The effects of rotating three RB's vs. TCU's defense was showing. No reason not to run it there.

yep...
Should have ran it right at them

HAHA Herbie just said worst performance by Big 10 in bowl history.

(or something to that effect)

No new film today for the Big Ten Network to add to their "Big Ten Classics" series.

Absolutely awesome win for TCU. This is why we need a playoff.

would have really torked the BCS if Boise St could have beaten Nevada

not really. just Arky or OSU would have been left out

likely arkansas

 

[vol_in_ar]

would have liked to see Boise take it too OSU

After watching this game, I would have been perfectly comfortable seeing TCU in the BCSMNCG had Auburn or Oregon lost a game.

After watching the Alabama and Miss St. beat down. I think the Big 10 is just a weak conference. Alabama is the second best team in the country IMO. I think Oregon is in the same boat, those high scoring offenses always look alot different when they play top 25 SEC teams.

Alabama played Michigan State, who never looked all that great most of the year in spite of their record, and ducked Ohio State. Not to mention it was pretty apparent they didn't want to be there. It's on them, but still...

IMO Wisconsin is still a good team, in spite of how bad the Big Ten has looked.

And Oregon would run into a buzzsaw with LSU or Bama, but Auburn's D ain't exactly the tops.

Tank Carder is a ball player. Very impressed with the TCU defense.

Agree, though the 2 point play bothered me. I don't see how you can't just give it to Clay to get 9 feet, he was bowling defenders over on that drive.

 

[YankeeVol]

To pass on the 2 point conversion made no sense.......they were running all over TCU

That Wiscy team was horrendously slow. Benefitted from an awful, awful conference littered with a bunch of slow.

Definitely, but they still have a superb OL and their three RB's can be bruisers -- they just looked like lightning against the Little Eleven defenses.

The playcalling by Bielema in the Rose Bowl was pretty poor, and the decision to pass on that 2pt conversion might be one of the most baffling playcalls of the season by anyone not named Les Miles.
