Shocker Alert - Florida State is in the National Championship!I ... am ... absolutely ... stunned.

Nebraska must have lost in the Big 12 championship game. That's the only explanation for this ... 'cause neither Nebraska nor Miami are in the Top 4.

As expected, Ohio State gets stomped in Pasedena, 49-24. Texas isn't prevented from scoring a TD on a single drive all game, while Ohio State has two INTs (including a pick six), and one drive end on 4th down.

Ohio State simply didn't have the manpower to match up with Texas, as every pundit on ESPN has been saying since the bowl game was announced a month ago.

Now Ohio State looks to the offseason, filled with the hope of signing new talent, but the more likely reality of another class filled with underacheivers.

Longhorn defense: 14 rushing yards allowed on 10 carries, 2 turnovers forced*cough* 376 passing yards allowed, and since 3 of those carries were the kneels at the end of the game, it's a little misleading. Pepe was 6 for 26, and that's the only real rushing I tried, lol.

24 - 21 FSU defeats PSU

It feels very good to finally win a Powerhouse Title, after having to rebuild auburn last year and almost get to the mountain top it has been a long time coming.

FSU fell into a hole early punting on their first possession and PSU caught a miracle tipped pass for a TD but lost their starting QB for 2 quarters on the play. It would be a game of attrition and both starting QBs missed time and PSUs starting RB also took some big hits throughout the game until he was finally KOd in the 3rd quarter.

The teams would continue to struggle back and forth with PSU missing a 40 yard FG in the 2nd quarter. FSU finally evened the game after a great pass to super star freshman TE Robinson which set up a 22 yard counter TD run for RB Chris Thompson who would go untouched to the wide side.

PSU then drove the length of the field and with 30 seconds left called an option to the right, FSUs DE got his hands on the QB and forced an errant pitch and senior SS Jajuan Harley recovered the ball with 25 seconds left.

FSU decided to try one pass play out of a run formation to try to catch PSU off guard...EJ dropped back and everyone was covered, faded right and then finally took off to the 50 yard line. FSU went deep on he next play to big time WR Willie Haulstead who hauled it in at the 4 yard line and almost scored at the pylon. FSU chipped in the FG to take a 10-7 lead to half.

The third quarter again saw the teams take turns being ineffective as injuries took their toll. FSU would finally break the ice in the 2nd half on a 15 yard TD option keeper by EJ Manuel.

It would take PSU only 2:35 to answer back and close the gap to 3 again on a TD run on 4th and goal.

Knowing the heat was on FSU went to their TE again and he delivered moving FSU into PSU territory. FSU would then pound the rock in the redzone and score what they hoped would be the game clinching TD at 24-14.

Once again PSU scored in under 3 minutes giving the Ball back to FSU 2:44 to play.

Facing a 3rd and 17 with 1 minute to go fsu finally went to the 5 wide which they had meant to do earlier in the game but were concerned with the excellent coverage PSU was playing. The FS walked up to the line and lost leverage as Christian Green raced past him at caught the post in front of Khairi Fortt to seal the victory.

Senior(rs) QB EJ Manuel would not falter in the title game like his predecessor Christian Ponder and made up for his horrible effort earlier in the season vs miami by playing a calm and controlled game. 12/20 283 0 TDs and 1 INT. The blame for his only pick was taken by the offensive coordinator.

Defensive player of the game Senior(RS) Dravannti Johnson 11 tackles, all solo with 2 TFLs. The transfer from texas made his presence felt on the field all season and surely has improved his draft stock.

Penn St player of the game Sophomore(rs) QB Paul Jones 18/24 232 2TDs 0 INTs

Play of the game PSU TE M Wedderburn catching a tipped pass and taking it to the house for the games first TD, i almost threw my controller lol.

pretty harsh words from lowly USC...the two fumbles really hurt snoop, one would have led to at least a FG but ended up giving me an extra FG instead.

Oklahoma pulls a miracle: Down 35-14, defense force turnovers, Calhoun gets 4 20+ yard TD runs, survives two late GT scores and missed field goal to win the game.. finally, Hurst returns a GT fumble in OT with 88 yard return to win game 55-49.

Oklahoma had four turnovers in the first three quarters and their fifth after a late GT TD which set up a luckily, missed field goal to save the game. Georgia Tech had four in the game's fourth quarter and in OT, all fumbles.

Landry Jones had 3 INTs but threw for 234 yards and a TD. However, Jermie Calhoun ran for 220 yards and 5 TDs in his final game as an OU Sooner.

Sheldon McClain had a 100 yard kickoff return for TD with 1:19 to go in between late GT TDs.

Returning 7 starters on defense. Losing 2 anchors at both DE positions. Returning All American DT George Uko in the middle and all 3 linebackers. Secondary loses half of the starters, CB and SS, but returners All American FS Blaine Taylor and Junior CB Torin Harris 86 overall.
