I love how Danielson is slurping up the read option attack now. What a derpfaced slappy.
Watching Auburn's rushing attack makes me sad that we're going to Manball. :(

just needs to keep moving the ball. Auburn's D doesn't look great either.
December 7th, 2013 at 5:41 PM ^
Is this the Auburn announcing crew or CBS National? Wow are they shilling for Auburn right now - if I actually gave a shit about Missouri I'd be pissed.

And Gary wears a midget dressed as a troll dressed as Jim Rome on his. Gary definitely has an ass for a hat as well. He is far worse than Verne (2006 Florida hyping during game when they beat Arkansas; I care not for arguments about Florida jumping M and validating jump by waxing OSU 5 weeks after we played them, as I wanted another shot at OSU for the MNC).
December 7th, 2013 at 5:55 PM ^
That's hilarious. Time for some photoshop.
December 7th, 2013 at 5:43 PM ^
Typical SEC announcing. They always openly route for the higher rated team. Its a joke.
December 7th, 2013 at 5:44 PM ^
Of course, they're trying to make a case for Ohio State to get jumped.
December 7th, 2013 at 5:46 PM ^
I cannot stand OSU, but they absolutely should be in the championship game if they win. I dont know where CBS./ESPN concluded that the SEC gets an auto-bid to the championship game. The bottom of the conference sucks just as hard as any other league. The only really good teams in it this year are Alabama, Auburn, and Mizzou(?)
December 7th, 2013 at 5:47 PM ^
the right call. If Auburn wins, they beat another top ten team. OSU did have a convincing win over Indiana though.
December 7th, 2013 at 5:50 PM ^
That would probably be a Top5 team in Alabama and a top 15 team in Missouri. Don't start quoting where a team was ranked when you played them. That is garbage. And Auburn got soundly beaten by LSU. They were down 21 at the start of the 4th. LSU went up 14 about 5 minutes in to the game and Auburn never got closer.
December 7th, 2013 at 5:54 PM ^
because it will be more appropriate to argue about this issue of who is more deserving after both teams finish their games tonight.

You are watching the absolutely awful tackling in this game criticizing Mattison. Seriously?
December 7th, 2013 at 5:50 PM ^
December 7th, 2013 at 5:54 PM ^
The only good offenses Missouri faced were Tex A&M and S.Carolina. They played Georgia when Georgia had lost both running backs. They didn't exactly play a daunting schedule to say the least. Their hardest road game was Georgia and they had nothing left by the time that happened.
December 7th, 2013 at 6:10 PM ^
December 7th, 2013 at 5:51 PM ^
I see no reason to spare Mattison from criticism. He is an excellent coach, but even good coaches have bad games and seasons.
December 7th, 2013 at 6:03 PM ^
December 7th, 2013 at 5:44 PM ^
I cannot stand listening to the CBS announcers slurp the SEC all game long
No offense? "Gary, SEC defense so gud"
No defense? "Verne, SEC offense so dinamik. Boner"

FSU would do to Auburn what Stanford did to Oregon.
December 7th, 2013 at 5:47 PM ^
Settling into this game after being out for a couple hours. To this point, 369 yards on 37 plays for Auburn, or basically about 10 yards per snap. They are also getting 0.757 points per play, so as someone above said, it seems like 277 yards of rushing would basically warrant the "Holy Rushing Game!" exclamation.
December 7th, 2013 at 5:49 PM ^
At the risk of sounding cliché football comes down to blocking and tackling. If you can't block it doesn't matter what scheme you run. It seems so simple but as we saw with Michigan it matters so much.
December 7th, 2013 at 5:50 PM ^
This is fun to watch. I get a sort of RR-era West Vrigina vibe from Mizzou in the way they are seemingly hybrid-type guys, really fast and agressive and athletic on defense especially. And the way they both check and re-check to defensive/offensive calls while at LOS...makes me envious.
December 7th, 2013 at 5:59 PM ^
December 7th, 2013 at 5:51 PM ^
Remember when Scott Loeffler said the reason his offense wasn't good at Auburn was because Auburn didn't have talent on offense?

future of Michigan football?
December 7th, 2013 at 5:54 PM ^
December 7th, 2013 at 5:52 PM ^
Has his offense ever been at least decent when he's the OC? Don't understand the Loeffler love other than he played and coached at Michigan. He's not good at all.
December 7th, 2013 at 5:55 PM ^
Not a great OC, though.
December 7th, 2013 at 5:51 PM ^
How does Baylor have 300+ yards of offense, no turnovers, and only ten points?
December 7th, 2013 at 5:52 PM ^
It would be interesting to analyse how the national announcers call SEC games relative to the score they are watching.
9-6 Alabama over LSU was an example of their fantastic defenses and was announced as such
28-20 Auburn over Missouri (at the half) is an example of their fantasic offenses and is being anounced as such
Heads you win....tails I lose.
December 7th, 2013 at 5:54 PM ^
Bama vs LSU was in fact an example of their fantastic defenses.
Other than that I take your point.
December 7th, 2013 at 5:58 PM ^
December 7th, 2013 at 6:01 PM ^
Even GREATER offenses at work!
Just need to amplfy the narrative that's all.

...would be the first year that two teams from the same conference won the National Championship?
What exactly IS the B1G official line on this? The B1G Network routinely shows Tommie Frazier highlights when showing their montage clips spotlighting all the teams in the conference...is this one of those things that we just politely agree not to talk about or what?
December 7th, 2013 at 5:53 PM ^
Can't help but notice only 2 teams playing in BCS League Champ games playing manball (Sparty & Stanford)
December 7th, 2013 at 6:00 PM ^
were won by teams that played Manball.
It really doesn't matter what offense you run. It's playcalling and execution that seperates winners and losers.
