I'm not a big conference superiority guy. I mean the Big 10 was mostly a joke, but I would give Michigan State a pretty good chance against either team last night. The ACC had a sub .500 bowl record, but does it matter when they went 2-0 in the BCS?
Anyways with more time to reflect its pretty eerie how similar last night was to the 2006 Rose Bowl. TD scored in the same endzone as Vince Young; less than 20 seconds left; dethrowning the king (USC then, SEC now); formerly great program returns to glory; likely future NFL coach on the losing sidelines. And I'd imagine that fake punt will find its place in FSU lore. The ballsiest thing about it to me is it was an obvious fake situation. Yet even despite it being an obvious fake situation, they still called it and executed it perfectly.
