Greg Sankey just said that Josh Heupel was a standout quarterback at... Kentucky. Might want to check the notes on that.

Tennessee fans erupt at the fact that they just received free Chick-Fil-A chicken sandwiches due to that pick six. May have been the loudest cheering all day.

This playoff decision should be easy. Being a 13-0 power conference champion is literally the bar. FSU beat a top-15 team by double digits with a third-string QB. It’s in. Texas has a H2H win against Alabama. Texas is in. Results matter. Anything else would be disingenuous
