So much pressure on kickers in this format

the last two rose bowls have had a combined 191 points(and counting) and more than 2,000 total yards of offense. It took the first 10 rose bowls to score that many points.

Awful offensive play calling by the Sooners.

Not the best played game i have ever seen, but certainly one of the most entertaining.

Cost me a $422 parlay win however.

OU deserved to lose that. You got the better QB. Gotta go for the throat in OT. Especially with the weaker defense.

Incredible game. Smith is a beast. Sucks for OU. Gotta root for Georgia moving forward

Yeah, I'm way more of an NFL guy than a college guy so I may be out of my depth but Oklahoma's playcalling looked horrendous for the last half of the game.

Nailed it.

Also interested OK basically played like The Falcons from last Superbowl. That one would sting hard.

An all SEC national championship.

Somewhat off topic but is this ad space that hard to sell that the only ads all game have been TSN promos and some stupid mobility chair? Seems weird that a big prime time game like this has ads more suited for a 3am episode of Motoring TV or a Sunday morning episode of a fishing show.

This Bama defence is back to looking all world again. Just stifling Clemson in all aspects of the game.

The entire afternoon/evening consisted of two different commercials that I recall. That stupid Acorn chair and a Federal Government ad not to drive while high on pot. I was wondering the same thing. Doesn't bode well for future broadcast games in Canada if this is all they could muster for advertising, and that would be hugely disappointing if we lost even more games.

Rose Bowl:
Hugely entertaining game even if I am disappointed at the outcome. That flubbed squib kick at the end of the first half turned out to be the difference. But props to the Georgia defence, they completely shut down the Sooners in the second half. Mayfield had absolutely nobody to throw to it seemed. First game the Sooners have ever lsot when scoring 30+ points in the first half and only the second game the Dogs have ever won when giving up more than 45.

Sugar Bowl:
Absolutely dominating performance by Alabama. They took full advantage of their second chance and are the team to beat next week now, pending the severity of the two injuries they sustained. They were banged up all year on D and last night was one of the first games in a long time they played with their season starters and man oh man are they good. Georgia will have their hands full.

Peach Bowl:
Fabuluous finish for UCF and a great way for Scott Frost to end his tenure there as a coach. Very impressive win over a good Auburn team and a great game to watch.

One more game to watch and for once the football and hockey gods have cooperated and I can see it. Hopefully it delivers.

The whole 2nd half really .... such a bummer. Im use to OU losing the big games but I really really really wanted Baker Mayfield to win it all. He is a great human being and good football player. Love seeing guys who wear their hearts on their sleeves.

UCF is going crazy. They are going to raise a national championship banner, have a parade and honor championship winning bonuses for their coaches.

Josh Rosen and Sam Darnold both declare for the draft. Had the privilege of seeing both live this year -- will be interesting to see how it translates to the pro game, and whether either guy ends up in Cleveland.
