    I'd sacrifice a finger for Cincy to take down the Almighty Tahd in the semis.

    The old "Well, they really weren't motivated playing in a shit bowl" excuse wouldn't wash, either.

    You can say I'm a dreamer, but I'm not the only one.

    Cincy may be leaving the American, but Tulane will still pocket a CFP check, so there's that.

    Rules interpretation came out today from the College Football Officiating regarding the fake slide by not only a quarterback but any runner:

    It reads in part: Any time a ball carrier begins, simulates, or fakes a feet-first slide, the ball should be declared dead by the on field officials at that point. The intent of the rule is player safety, and the objective is to give a ball carrier an option to end the play by sliding feet first and to avoid contact. To allow the ball carrier to fake a slide would compromise the defense that is being instructed to let up when the ball carrier slides feet first. A fake slide will not be considered reviewable.

    Ohh hooray. Now maybe we can focus on Wake coach throwing a forearm shiver into a running back who has been out injured and also Wake giving up 31 unanswered after going up 21-14.

    Funny they can’t move this quickly to expand the playoff but god forbid a player fake slide.
