So it Got Ugly...

Did you really think that Ohio State had a shot?

Really?

How many people out there were scared when Beanie Wells broke off that 65 yard run at the start of the game? That is I think the worst thing that happened to Ohio State. Last year, recall, Ted Ginn, Jr. ran the opening kick back for the six. I think Florida scored 41straight before Ohio State scored again.

This year they went up 10-0 before LSU rattled off 31 straight. I mean, first the #1 defense in the country, or so they were ranked because they didn't play a ranked team all season, isn't supposed to give up 31 to anyone. 31 straight is just straight nasty. That's pretty much the best way to guarantee a win...score 31 straight.

Glenn Dorsey is so good is terrifying. How many times was his name called? A few. But at the same time, he was taking on double teams and moving them around. Those plays stopped int he backfield were caused by Dorsey occupying Buckeye lineman and moving them by himself. That being said, I will say that Ohio State's right guard, #71 maybe, had some good plays where he stopped Dorsey by himself. That kid is going to be a good prospect.

I can sit here and bash Ohio State all day. You know I can. I can even go to the lengths of Jim Tressell is 0-3 in BCS Title games (No Owens recognizes Miami as the 2002 champions. There should be a time limit on terrible calls...5 seconds is far too long.) But what I will say is that LSU is in fact the best team in the country right now. They proved it. They manhandled Ohio State in a way that only they could. They have the best players, coaches and plans of any team around. They are the premier program in college football and they proved it last night, convincingly.

I don't really know what else to say about it. I mean, do I need to stand on my soap box and yell about the SEC having the top two teams in the nation? And that the top 10 next year will probably include LSU, Georgia, Florida and Tennessee? I mean, the Big 10 can pretty much just go home.

You know who's going home? June Jones. June Jones is headed to the mainland...I know many consider Texas the mainland, but anyway, to SMU. So, Baylor, SMU and Duke have all made major moves throwing lots of money at major coaches. Do these programs really think they can win? Look at the final AP poll. Look at the top teams. It's no surprise. What is June Jones going to do for SMU? What conference are they in? What's Cut going to do at Duke? Even if he gets something going, he still plays in the ACC. He still has to deal with the likes of Miami, Florida State, and Virginia Tech. Seriously.

All in all, the season is over. Which is terrible. But now we can focus on the other sports that really don't mean near as much. Sad.
