Since it’s the Christmas season, I give you three “unwise” men who followed the shining light of the College Football Playoff and lost all ability for rational thought.

Let’s take a moment to really appreciate what happened today. In hindsight, having

snatch victory from the jaws of defeat on the 10-year anniversary of the “Kick Six” and send the Auburn nation home distraught is more satisfying than a 28-point blowout.

Games do matter and beating the consensus No. 1 team on a 29-game winning streak matters. Strength of schedule matters because all conferences are not created equal. Injuries matter as per the bylaws of the committee. So everything matters.
