Tks and well done Condem for running the show. It always makes watching a game that much more interesting when you have a pick or margin at stake. Cheering for one more touchdown in a losing team but getting the margins right. Bama for the title - if not only because they have an Aussie on the team; and not just the punter.

Big 12 doesn't have a championship anymore (and who are they going to replace Kansas with?) nor does the BigLeast. This has the potential to be the worst bowl season in history. A 16 team playoff, please.
