The trio accounted for 53 percent of receiving yards on the season and 15 of 25 touchdowns through the air. Not to mention, backup QB Tate Rodemaker has announced his decision to transfer.

So today I had an argument with a good friend, a husky fan, about the FSU snub. I said that the committee made their choice on the flawed subjective reasoning of picking the "best teams" instead of the most deserving teams. I said that I've heard more than one coach say there is no "I" in team but the committee seemed to think so but he disagreed and thought the committee did the right thing. Being good friends we agreed to disagree. Right after that call my wife walks in with her Duck shirt on and says When does the Liberty bowl start. I said sweetie it's not the Liberty bowl, we play Liberty in the Fiesta bowl. Whatever she says. Is there any other bowls? Yes there's the Rose Bowl and later this evening the Sugar Bowl. She says after the Liberty bowl she's going upstairs and watch something on the hallmark channel. After all she's had a "buttfull" of football anyway. Luckily we each have our own widescreens so after the games are over I'll see her at suppertime. So Happy New Year everybody and enjoy the day. Sigh.

I’m a Husky fan, but rooting for your ducks today.
Go Pac12!!!!!
 
I thought he’d take a nice NIL deal somewhere and have one more year to develop, which I think would have helped him. I hope this decision works out for him.

Here are cheers to 2 great CFP bowl games ---> at least that is my hope.

Would like to see Michigan and Washington both win today.

Then in the National Championship game, same results as 1978 Rose Bowl ---> Huskies win over Michigan.
 
I was just about to say, it looks like 2 crappy high school teams.
 
Regardless of how much practice they get, the nearly one month layoff can really lead to some less than stellar football.
Hot teams can cool off after the championship weekend with that much time between games.

Apparently all you have to do is call them out on it and play improves!
 
The missed extra point by Michigan may end up being huge in this game.

Certainly seems to be the case in the early game.
 
Michigan D was great in the 1st half. Harbaugh has a very poor record in bowl games. Sabin out coached/adjusted Harbaugh after the half. The bungled PAT hurt a lot.

Michigan got lucky to get to OT.
