A team with an athletic D-line such as Florida or LSU gave A&M alot of problems because they were fast enough to keep Manzel in check from scrambling. Alabama doesnt have that kind of line this season which is why they lost and i dont think OSU had that kind of line either but next season with Washington, Spence, Bosa and Manzel would be in trouble

agree, just as alabama was a poor matchup to AM, AM has teams they match up poorly against.

it was still early in the last half of the season, so...

I do not think uat or Notre Dame could beat them either...  (oh yeah...uat didn't).  Though they lost to UF and LSU in weeks 1 and 2.  They would boatrace both of them today.  Johnny Football is hitting on all cylinders.

Oregon only cause they might could keep pace in a boatrace...

LSU beat them in week 8.  The legend about how LSU caught them early in the season continues to grow.  That's 2/3 of the way through the season when they lost to LSU.

Big playoff scenario (like some on here prefer) = regular season becomes more irrelevant.

 
I don't see how 120 teams trying to nab, say, 8 playoff spots makes the regular season irrelevant.  But I'm not sure what you meant by "big playoff scenario".  8-12 teams (with a 12 team scenario being set up like the NFL playoffs) would be a lot of fun and still keep the season relevant.

The door has opened to a playoff.  Give it time and the big playoff will occur.  Everyone does it (i.e., bloated playoffs), why not Div 1-A football?

Go BUCKS!!!
OHIO STATE in '13!!!
