You don't really believe that, right?

Teams play good games, teams play bad games...both teams have made mistakes, but the difference in this game is that NW has made up for their mistakes in a big way...

Auburn has simply made mistakes...

Any given Saturday is crap...

Is Purdue better than Ohio State?

I think not...

Not only do I believe that, but the whole system of determining who wins and loses is predicated on it.

On the day that they played, Purdue was better than Ohio State. If you want to say that Ohio State's body of work over the course of the season makes them better than that result indicates, fine. That's not the same argument as the one you're making about this game though. You're trying to say that we should ignore one team's boatload of mistakes but not the other's.

Today, here and now, not taking into account what the teams have done in all their other games this season - the team that wins this game will have been the better team.

First time I've seen that penalty in a long time...

...but if they review it, and it's NOT a fumble, the penalty gets nixed...

So NW has got to be rooting for them to call it a possession then a fumble...

How often does that happen...

Great call by the refs, even if that's a tough call in this situation. He was definitely swatting it away from NW's outstretched hands.

I'm still not sure why these bowls have a press box height webcam used for reviews.
