I still have no idea how we lost. Northwestern is looking really good, you can tell these players love Fitzgerald. Be on the look out for NW to be solid for quite a while, I dont see him leaving.

A lot of it I believe is just a let down for Miss State. They just don't look ready, they have a lot better athletes then Northwestern just not as mentally ready.

I agree, it looks like Northwestern wants it more than Miss State. Part of that has to be coaching

Aaron Murray has thrown two picks in the first quarter - including a pick-six - but Georgia is leading Nebraska 16-14 after one.

Second half of the Cap One Bowl could get interesting because it looks like Gurley is getting in a rhythm.

Clowney just delivered one of the hardest hits I've seen in a long time. My goodness.
