I watched the game film and think we'll be fine.  One or two calls go our way and we would have won today.  Mostly disappointed for Marquette's cause

Tennessee scored with 11 minutes left to go up 34-30. I thought they should have gone for 2 to try to go up 36-30. That way, it would take two FGs to tie. Also, it would mean that if Tennessee could add a FG, it would put them up by 2 scores (39-30).

Instead, they kicked to go up 35-30, and a FG a little later only put them up 38-30. So when Georgia scored with 2:32 to go, they were able to tie it with a 2-point conversion.

Had Georgia been down 9, they would have had to change their strategy considerably.

Odds are that UT would have missed the 2 point conversion, so I get why they took the safe route with the PAT.

Two bigger errors (to me): 1) Not taking a TO to set up their defense on UG's 2 point conversion (the guy was wide open!) and 2) screwing around with trying to get a little closer in the final seconds and getting a 5 yard offsides penalty instead.

There is always a chance a defender will be able to punch the ball out for a fumble, so why tempt fate with "just one more down?" It also gave the kicker more time to get nervous about the FG attempt. Just like opponents often do to ice the kicker with a last second TO.

It will be interesting to see how strength of schedule plays into everything once the bids are announced.

ND doesn't play a single ranked opponent the rest of the way, and by far its toughest remaining game is at Arkansas. ND will almost have to try to avoid finishing 10-2.

You know they'll want ND in the playoffs, so watching them twist themselves into pretzels to justify it will be entertaining.

Big game in Madison this week as our boys look to bounce back against the rival Terps.  Don't underestimate this Terps team.  They'd win the SEC, imo
