re: How can a person make any sense of this?

Butthurt will be limited to fans of the loser. fans of the winner will celebrate (in very sick ways if bama wins) and the rest of the country will just gripe that the media, etc loves the SEC. The problem is that LSU and bama would crush any team in the country outside the SEC at this point by three TD+.

I wish Okie State or the hokies had not choked and we would not have the stress of having to beat bama again. Inexcusable that Okie State lost to a 6-7 team from Ames, Iowa.
