What a game, this year is filled with a bunch of mediocre teams.....I will say this though, whoever drafts Suh is going to get a monster....

Dear Colt, there wasn't 15 seconds on the game clock when the ball was snapped.

Nebraska gave Texas great field position by kicking it out of bounds, and then they set up the FG with the horse collar. Just a couple awful mistakes that got them beat.

Texas just about screwed up though. They almost wasted nearly a minute of clock without even getting a FG attempt.

If they don't, who does?
Florida who got clownstomped by Bama?
Mid-major TCU or Boise?
No defense Cincinnati?

Nope, the 2 best teams will play in Pasadena.
TCU would beat Texas by 2 Tds. Texas is a joke.

I can't believe Texas got the one second back. I mean sure, there may have been 1 second left, but it was close enough that it shouldn't of been overturned.

What a joke.

Hats off to Nebraska, a damn good team, would probably finish top 7 in the Big Ten.

What will happen now is Texas will go to the title game and somehow beat Bama after looking awful against Nebraska.

That's how things seem to work, or so it seems.

Quite possibly the worst clock management I've seen in years. That was absolutely stupid. I've never seen a team almost run the clock out on themselves. Most teams stop the clock with at least 3 seconds for the final kick.

TCU does they are better than Texas. Texas has played two teams with decent defenses and barely won Nebraska and Oklahoma. TCU would beat Texas by 2 tds.

No chance that anyone jumps Texas. And it is foolish to say Texas doesn't deserve to play for the title because other than Alabama, there is no one more deserving to play for it. Ndamukong Suh had the best individual performance I have seen in college football this year. I enjoyed this game much more than the UC/Pitt game earlier. Even with Nebraska's offense stinking up the entire venue, I love watching great defense. Great game.

Nebraska handed Texas the game, I was SO rooting for Nebraska to create some chaos in the BCS and possibly get us closer to a playoff. Texas then almost blew it, why would you risk a shot at the title on a 46-yard kick??? McCoy was one second from being the goat, now he might win the Heisman :(

TCU's better than Texas just like Cincy is better than OSU. Keep dreaming--we'll see if it's TCU and if it is, then you'll see. They'll get destroyed by Bama.

In the final BCS rankings, do you think Florida falls below all four teams: Texas, TCU, Cinn, and Boise?

Agreed. The replay looked only at the ball hitting the ground & the clock had one second. There is no reaction time allowed for the officials to blow the play dead.

Remember that for Delay of Game, the official has to see the play clock hit zero, then see the ball has not been snapped before the penalty.

This whole thing is like placing the first down markers at the sideline by eyeballing it from 30 yards away then when they measure for the first down, they take the chains to the ball and it's like they are accurate to a fraction of an inch.

A huge underdog Nebraska almost won this game playing something akin to Tressel ball.
