If FSU wins I don't see why Mizzou won't finish #3. #7 OSU, #6 Baylor, #5 Stanford, and #3 Alabama all lost. I can't see how #2 Auburn drops just one spot if they lose.

When you win Bowl Games it does have an effect on recruiting....and losing after starting so promising does have a mental effect. Ask any OSU fan (be it Ohio State or Okie State) or Bama how they feel about losing their last 2 games after a promising season and being in place for a BCS or NCG shot. |

I think at best we find our way to #4.....but realistically I see us landing at #5, which is still pretty damn good for being picked to finish 6th in our division.

I agree - it's good to see Franklin go out a winner so my lasting memory of him won't be one of blind rage.
He was a great Tiger. He deserves to be remembered for a hell of a comeback season and not just for yacking up a bowl game.

I ABSOLUTELY means a lot. You can argue that it shouldn't, but you can't argue that it doesn't. The exposure...the momentum...the symbolism...it ****ing matters.

The entire narrative of this season was decided tonight.

But since you said to ask any Bama fan, I'll ask myself: "Self, how do you feel about Alabama losing their last two games after a promising season where you were ranked #1 the whole way?" "Well, self, losing the last regular season game to Auburn hurts a lot. It cost us a spot in the SEC championship game, and effectively ensured that we would not play for the BCS national championship. Losing the Sugar Bowl to Oklahoma doesn't hurt at all, comparatively. It doesn't feel good to have been outcoached by Bob Stoops. But it also does nothing to take away from our gargantuan success in recent years, or our best-in-the-nation recruiting class for next year." |

There is no momentum carried over into next season because of bowl performance, either way. None. That's one of the falsest ideas in all of sports.
