0-2 in BCS games.
The rest of the SEC teams looked pretty weak in the bowls as well. The only team with a pulse was a former Big 12 team.

Agreed, finally some relief from the all the SEC homers that don't seem to be a fan of any team in particular, just fans of the SEC.
January 7th, 2014 at 1:52 AM ^
So tired of fans of Arkansas, Ole Miss, Missisippi State, Kentucky, Tennessee and sometimes Georgia and Florida using the SEC to justify their meidocre team going 5-7, 7-5, 8-4, etc. No you wouldn't go undefeated in any other conference, you just aren't very good.

I know a guy who is a huge Kentucky fan (so big he said he cried when they won the national title in basketball...too bad it will be vacated in 5 years) and all he does is talk about how the SEC is soo awesome. I also tell him to shut up because his team wouldn't compete in the Sun Belt. The fans of crappy SEC teams are the worst part of the SEC!
January 7th, 2014 at 12:19 AM ^
Jameis almost dropped it. But he caught it since FUCK THE SEC.
January 7th, 2014 at 12:20 AM ^
Brent Musburger's (and ESPN's) hard on for the SEC stayed true to the final seconds. Rather than talking about how amazing Florida State's comeback was...he's talking about the legendary season of Auburn. Combine that with his blase call on the TD pass for FSU with 11 seconds left to put them ahead. It's just embarassing.
Oh and I already can't wait til football season starts!
January 7th, 2014 at 12:21 AM ^
totally agreed. and couple that with the fact that he praised the SEC conferece, not the Auburn team. wtf???
January 7th, 2014 at 8:39 AM ^
I was totally expecting him to say the SEC has the hottest girlfriends.
January 7th, 2014 at 12:26 AM ^
Old people aren't great about quick changes of direction. Man couldn't keep up.
January 7th, 2014 at 12:34 AM ^
Easily the worst part is him dragging on about how Fisher "modeled Florida State after the SEC" as if he could co-opt FSU into the SEC and make the streak continue for one more year.

LES MILES HAS TURNED LSU INTO MICHIGAN OF THE 90's FER FUCK SAKES
January 7th, 2014 at 8:45 AM ^
January 7th, 2014 at 9:00 AM ^
He sounded like the Don Criqui call of Denard's UTL TD.
January 7th, 2014 at 9:42 AM ^
the headline/lead story scroll on the left side of the screen was all about Alabama - not a single word on the screen about Oklahoma. ESPN is beyond pitiful. Of course the only thing they are better at than creating a story is destroying the object of the story. I'd be nervous if I were the SEC.
January 7th, 2014 at 10:08 AM ^
It really is embarassing how biased they have (likely intentionally) become towards the SEC. As much as I like what Malzahn has done at Auburn and have never really liked FSU, it was GREAT to see SEC go down.
PS. Wouldn't ESPN also be happy for ACC? Don't they also own ACC network too?

College football is the greatest sport on Earth. What a great conclusion to a brilliant season.
Unfortunately, Michigan's season leaves most of us with a sour taste in our mouths. But herein lies one of the hidden strengths of the game: The long offseason. Now there is a time to flush out the bile, to rest, to reset. And to build that hunger again. And by August, we will be ready to go again, ready to ride the weekly rollercoaster.
Bring it.

so that they can run around with the SEALS and carry large logs has paid major dividends so far.

If we gone do it den, we do it big den!
January 7th, 2014 at 12:24 AM ^

our standards for "best MIchigan bowl season" have really tanked.
January 7th, 2014 at 12:27 AM ^
When is it going to be our time?
I hate hearing this too but we have one of these things in the last 60 years.
January 7th, 2014 at 12:31 AM ^
Watching that awards ceremony that's all I could think, when will this be us? Then I stopped thinking about it because on our current trajectory..........well let's just enjoy SEC sadness for a while.
January 7th, 2014 at 12:39 AM ^
I always go onto the Fanatics shop site for the team that wins the championship and imagine it with Michigan logos on that Michigan won it.
All I've done most of my life where I was old enough to understand football was dream and say oh shucks maybe some day.
January 7th, 2014 at 12:40 AM ^
One thing to remember: This same Auburn team went 3-9 last year. They went 12-2 this year and were a couple of plays away from the championship.
Not saying Michigan is going to do that next year but it is definitely a possibility. I think our coaches know it's game time. The Mathletes chart said it well. 2011 was a huge success that outpaced pretty much anybody's expectations. Last season was kind of where people thought we'd be given the schedule. This year let's not talk about it's ova.
Literally the sky's the limit next year but one way or another I think we are going to know where the Hoke era is going. I still think he should get the fifth year but next year will show the trend is reversing and going up or it is going down.
Either way the SEC has been brought to heel and for that I am thankful.
January 7th, 2014 at 1:54 AM ^
but Auburn also benefitted from bringing back possibly the greatest offensive mind in football right now. Hopefully we can take all of our good parts and piece together a great team next year
January 7th, 2014 at 1:17 PM ^
I'd go farther and say that if you don't have Malzhan in the top 3 of greatest offensive minds ever, I'm not sure who else you're sticking in there.
January 7th, 2014 at 10:05 AM ^
Staee finished 7-6 in 2012.
