This was a one quarter game because of two more games coming up within the hour. And since Matt Millen called this game, there's only so much blunder and bluster I can take.
This was more of game that was on instead of me paying a lot of attention. I had to do actual work work, not just this blogging nonsense. Each team put up a score in the first quarter and I was off to the Cotton Bowl (although I would be back).
Cotton Bowl going very poorly for Michigan State, so I checked back in for a tight finish. The Badgers kicked a late field goal for the tie and overtime. They had the ball first, managed a field goal. Not so much for Auburn. Game.
Wisconsin 34 Auburn 31 (OT)
Notes
-So that's now Auburn, Ole Miss, Mississippi State (clanga clanga) and LSU, all from the SEC West, all to have lost. Maybe SEC devotees can tone it down just a hair. "Help us Nick Saban, you're our only hope." We'll find out tonight. How funny would it be if only Arkansas won their game.
-AD Barry Alvarez was back inside the headset for this game. Its like he never left.
Officer Friendly is probably thinking about the free Outback coconut shrimp he'll be eating tomorrow in honor of the Badger win. Make sure to get yours.
-The Outback Bowl website has a visitor's guide section that include a "Where To Eat" page. Guess what's on that page?
-Player swag: Jostens ring! Also $150 Best Buy gift card; Outback Steakhouse gift card; Fossil watch; cap. Not a bad haul.
My pick - Auburn.
