What a way for the 4 team CFB playoff to go out…
No. 1 Michigan vs. No. 4 Alabama
No. 2 Washington vs. No. 3 Texas
Florida State and Georgia left home.
Next year we move to 12 teams!
Look at these Georgia fans crying in the stands because their football team lost a single game for the first time in 3 years…
You don’t know what real sports pain is.
Alabama ends Georgia’s 29 game win streak in SEC title game—and the CFB playoff committee has a red hot mess on its hands.

Press break has been highly problematic…
“We want Bobby!” chants during timeouts all second half—to no avail.
The disconnect continues.
Khalif Battle’s shotmaking has been outstanding tonight, especially without Mark available… Needed every one.

Ain’t no hollaback girl except
I’m fine with this desperation heave on one condition: Petrino rides back into Fayetteville on a Harley wearing a neck brace and a blonde on his back.
Have to lean into the bizarro humor of this thing to make it work, however briefly…
This would bring it shamelessly full circle. U of A makes special resolution to re-hire BP after banishing him from kingdom 12 years ago…
The disconnection we are watching right now between the University of Arkansas athletic department and its Razorback football fanbase is nothing short of astonishing.
