Hawaii was a run-first team this year. The preferred to simply run their big RB straight at the other guy. Arizona was strange. They probably called 50/50 run/pass, but their passing was more of the type called "gently caress it, going deep."

ROUND OF 64 - OREGON REGION 1: Oregon (d. Eastern Michigan) vs. 8: Navy (d. Rutgers) Navy came to play. The sailors scored the first two TDs of the contest and got a 49 yard dash with a minute left in the 2nd to take a 28-21 lead at the half. Oregon made the necessary adjustments and blanked the Midshipmen in the 3rd while reclaiming the lead, then held on for a 45-38 win. Navy ran for 463 but the Ducks weren't far behind at 345, plus Marcus Mariota threw for 236 and two scores, while Navy tossed it five times, completing two, for just 29 yards. 4: West Virginia (d. Old Dominion) vs. 5: Tennessee (d. Bowling Green) These two traded the lead all game. It looked like the Couch Burners would have the last laugh after scoring with 10:31 to go for a 34-31 lead and a drive to the Vols 8 with 2:50 to go. But Tennessee got a key pick, albeit they were starting at their own 5. Needing a FG to tie, they got to the WVU 29 with 41 ticks on the clock. In the process of trying to run the clock down, Jalen Hurd got free and scored his third TD of the day, putting the Vols up 38-34. With just 23 seconds left, West Virginia didn't have enough firepower and came out on the wrong end of this one. 2: Oklahoma (d. New Mexico) vs. 7: Boston College (d. Rice) BC was a team that loved to run the ball. Unfortunately, the best back on the field was Samaje Perine. The single-game rushing record holder went for 146 and two scores as the Sooners took out the Eagles 45-21. 14: Ohio (d. LSU) vs. 11: San Diego State (d. Houston) Fireworks in the first half as the teams traded TDs in the opening quarter, then the Aztecs ripped off 17 unanswered in the second to take a 27-14 halftime lead. But it seemed both teams punched themselves out as no one scored in the third. Ohio scored with three left in the game to move to 27-21 and got the rock back, but did nothing with it and falls by that score. SDST's Quinn Kaehler threw for 338 yards and a score, but was picked four times and that's kinda bad.

And we're back! ROUND OF 64 - ALABAMA REGION 1: Alabama (d. Georgia State) vs. 8: Washington State (d. Utah State) Bama's had trouble with teams that just chuck the ball all over the field and Wazzu might be the pinnacle of that style. Oddly enough, it was a 20 yard TD dash that put the Cougars on the board first and a 39 yard run that gave them a 14-7 lead going into the 2nd quarter. Bama, of course, would rally and hit Amari Cooper from 49 yards out to tie the game at 17 all going into recess. Two TJ Yeldon 3rd Quarter TDs put Bama up 31-17, but Washington State countered with two TD passes early in the 4th to tie everything up at 37. Bama got a 32 yard FG with 3:54 left, Wazzu answered from 45 with just under a minute, but a good return on the ensuing kickoff allowed Yeldon to move the Tide into FG range, and a 27 yard kick gave Bama the narrow win, 37-34. 4: Miami (d. Ball State) vs. 5: South Carolina (d. South Alabama) Da U beat HBC in the  DUCK COMMANDER INDEPENDENCE BOWL 24-21 IRL. Here, the two teams slugged it out to almost that exact score in the 1st Half, Miami leading 23-21 at the break, but only the Canes scored in the 2nd Half, winning 43-21. Duke Johnson ran for 178 and a score while Brad Kayaa threw 3 TDs and no picks, and while Mike Davis matched Duke with 174 and 2 scores, Dylan Thompson couldn't live up to his end of the bargain with just 1 TD pass.2: Arkansas (d. Wyoming) vs. 10: Indiana (d. California) Both teams enjoy running the ball. The problem is that no one loves running the ball more than bert, and after Alex Collins ran for his third of four rushing touchdowns midway through the 2nd Quarter, Arkansas led 21-3 and wouldn't let up, winning 45-13. Hogs only ran for 297 yards to Indiana's 239, but the five total rushing TDs broke the Hoosiers' back. 3: Kansas State (d. San Jose State) vs. 6: Michigan (d. Arkansas State) Not much doing in the first thirty as Michigan led 10-7 at the break. A Kansas State safety opened the flood gates, as they would score the next three touchdowns and even though Michigan got a 53 yard score from Drake Johnson, it wasn't enough to overcome Bill Snyder's book of spells as K-State won 31-17. After the game Brady Hoke hemmed and hawwed for twenty minutes as a reporter asked him to spell his name and whether or not football was a sport.

ROUND OF 64 - OHIO STATE REGION 1: Ohio State (d. New Mexico State) vs. 8: Oregon State (d. Texas Tech) Winner gets to claim the OSU initials, since Okie Lite's gone. So of course the Buckeyes get the first three TDs and at 21-0 with 10:10 to go in the 2nd this sucker looks like a rout. But the Beavers show life and get two scores of their own to make it a 21-14 game at the break. It's 28-17 going into the 4th, when Ezekiel Elliott goes HAM and runs for three TDs, capping his day at 221 yards and 4 scores in total as Ohio State rolls 49-17. 4: Nebraska (d. Vanderbilt) vs. 5: Boise State (d. UTEP) Ameer Abdullah puts Husker on the board first, with Boise then countering to take a 13-7 lead after 1. Nebraska then gets 17 unanswered until Boise hits a FG to end the 1st Half and make it a one-score game, 24-16. Boise gets a FG to pull within 24-19 with Nebraska getting another TD to take a 31-19 lead into the 4th. Then the Bluefielders put together their big rally, a FG and two scores to claim the lead 36-31. But the Fightin' Pelinis aren't done and they get a TD and a 2-pointer to reclaim a 39-36 lead with 2:20 to go. They try a 38 yard FG with :50 to go, but the tying points miss and Nebraska escapes into the Round of 32. 2: Stanford (d. Tulsa) vs. 10: Western Kentucky (d. Oklahoma State) Hilltoppers are coming off one upset and have a gameplan for this one: jam and box and force Kevin Hogan to beat them. They succeed in the first part, allowing the Trees just 103 yards on 48 carries, but Kevin Hogan does beat the Hilltoppers, throwing for 259 yards and three TDs as Stanford wins 34-21. WKU did get a pick of Hogan from a dude named Wonderful Terry, which is just a fantastic name. Get him into the NFL please. 3: Georgia Tech (d. FAU) vs. 11: Illinois (d. Cincinnati) For a team that likes to kill you via papercuts, GT used big plays to take the early lead, a 47 yard TD run, an 80 yard TD run, and then a 54 yard Pick 6 to go up 21-3. Illini get a TD in the waning moments of the 1st Half to make it 21-10 at the break, then after a GT FG, get a TD in the 3rd to make it 24-17, and then get the tying score with 1:37 left. Or so it would seem, as Illinois proceeds to miss the loving extra point to remain down 24-23. Ramblin' Wreck recovers the onside and it's all over and Illinois loses in the most Clemson way possible. Round of 32 - Ohio State Region 1: Ohio State vs. 4: Nebraska 2: Stanford vs. 3: Georgia Tech

ROUND OF 64 - TCU REGION 1: TCU (d. SMU) vs. 8: Kentucky (d. Northwestern) Kentucky came to play and hung in with the Frogs in the 1st half, even taking a 21-20 lead into the locker room at the break. But Trevone Boykin ran for a TD to put TCU up, then a 69 yard punt return TD just about broke the Cats. UK got a FG in the 4th to make it 34-24, but a 72 yard TD run broke Kentucky as TCU won 41-24. Lexington residents shrugged and resumed harassing basketball recruits on Twitter. 4: Missouri (d. UTSA) vs. 5: Louisville (d. Kansas) It was a FG party in the first half as both teams combined to kick five, three for the Cards and two for the Tigers. Louisville also had the audacity to score two TDs to Mizzou's one and led 23-13 at half. But Missouri figured out how to shut down Louisville's offense and held them scoreless in the 2nd, and tied the game at 23 midway through the fourth. However, it looked like we were heading to OT until the seventh FG of the game went through for Mizzou with thirty ticks to go. Louisville couldn't rally and the Tigers escaped 26-23. Seven field goals. gently caress me. 2: USC (d. Army) vs. 7: East Carolina (d. Louisiana-Lafayette) The bad part about being a gunslingin' team is when the other team outslings you when just playing their game. As was the life for the Pirates, who threw for 295 yards to USC's 311. Even worse, ECU ran 31 times for 35 yards which is completely dreadful, whereas the Trojans picked up 124 yards. Needless to say, USC controlled every aspect of this game and cruised to a 34-17 win. 3: Wisconsin (d. North Texas) vs. 6: Virginia (d. Western Michigan) Clearly inspired by the Missouri-Louisville contest, UVA decided to try and win by only kicking field goals. They tried eight, making six, which I guess isn't too bad when you consider the two they missed were from 50 and 42. On the other hand, Wisconsin decided they had Melvin Gordon and they should have him run into the end zone since that was worth more points. Gordon did that twice, and after the Badgers kicked four FGs of their own (sigh), Wisconsin won 26-18. I swear to loving god if these teams don't stop kicking field goals instead of playing football I'm pulling this car over and turning around 10 loving combined FGs what the christ y'all this ain't right. Round of 32 - 1: TCU vs. 4: Missouri 2: USC vs. 3: Wisconsin

ROUND OF 64 - GEORGIA REGION 1: Georgia (d. Idaho) vs. 8: Colorado State (d. Temple) Nick Chubb was a beast early on, with rushes of 52 and 65 yards for scores. However, CSU showed that they were willing to fight, throwing the ball all over the place and tying the game at 14 heading into the break. The teams traded TDs in the third before CSU completely broke the game open, scoring the next four touchdowns and putting this game away. Georgia got one last pity TD with a minute to go, but all it did was make the final margin 49-28 as the first 1 seed falls. 4: Notre Dame (d. South Florida) vs. 12: Central Michigan (d. Washington) Not much doing in the first thirty as each team found the promised land once. CMU took the lead 14-7, but Notre Dame scored the next 17 to lead 24-14. With six left to go in the 4th Quarter, CMU got Deon Butler's second TD to make it a three point game, but missed desperation kicks from 51 and 58 to allow the Irish to escape 24-21 and potentially take control of this region. 2: UCLA (d. UMass) vs. 7: UCF (d. Syracuse) Determined not to let what happened to Georgia or Clemson happen to them (and ain't it just about fair that both Georgia and Clemson were in the same region and both just happened to crap themselves? I swear I'm not rigging this), UCLA blows the Knights out of the water in the 1st Half, leading 34-3. They let off the gas a little bit in the second, but still dominate 47-13. Brett Hundley threw three TDs and no picks, so good for him. 14: Buffalo (d. Clemson) vs. 6: Minnesota (d. Middle Tennessee) Not a pretty one early, with Minnesota determined to use their superior size and strength to dominate their MAC foe. It worked early on as the Gophers led 10-7 at the half and 13-7 after three, but as you see Minn wasn't getting points. When Buffalo stopped trying to run the Gophers and went full MACtion with the passing game, everything turned around as they got a 4th Quarter TD to take the lead 14-13 and an insurance FG with :44 left to pull off their second upset 17-13. Not only will Minnesota not win this tournament of mine, we all now have an upset favorite to pull for at least until UCLA grinds them into paste.

ROUND OF 64 - BAYLOR REGION 1: Baylor (d. Troy) vs. 8: Iowa (d. Nevada) Baylor beat the holy hell out of Iowa in the opening quarter, with a FG, a safety, and 2 TDs to go up 19-0 and it looked like this would be a good ol' fashioned country asswhippin' until Iowa ran in a couple of TDs early in the 2nd and made it a game. Baylor was fine to continue scoring, it's generally what they do, but Iowa was satisfied with hitting their 2 TD quota and contently kicked FGs the rest of the game. Needless to say, Baylor won, 42-23. While they hit their TD quota Iowa only punted four times, disappointing their many fan 4: Utah (d. Wake Forest) vs. 5: Memphis (d. Iowa State) So I've never heard of Devontae Booker before today, because honestly I don't watch Utah football. But it turns out he's pretty good at running the handegg. He had two scores in the 1st Half (65 yards and 2 yards) and capped off the game with his third score, a 47 yard effort, to cinch his 28 rush, 261 yard, 3 TD day and a 34-17 Utah win. Memphis only ran for 175 as a team, for comparison. Normally I'd insult them but 261 yards is a lot, yo. 2: Florida State (d. UConn) vs. 7: Maryland (d. Air Force) Remember a couple of years ago, before Maryland bailed for the most glorious Big Ten and before Jameis decided to steal that girl and rape those crab legs, that FSU's start was a fluke and Winston wasn't that good and Maryland's D was going to shut FSU down? And that FSU went and beat the dogpiss out of Maryland in response? That's kinda how this game went as the Noles won 51-10. Jameis, an unconvicted rapist, was 26-34, 306 yards, and 5 TDs. 3: Florida (d. Tulane) vs. 6: Texas (d. UAB) Florida won 25-20. You might think, "25 points? That's an odd number how did that happen?" It happened because Will Muschamp is a stupid caveman of a coach who had his team kick a bunch of FGs and they somehow backdoored their way into 2 TDs and missed the XP on one of those because they can't even fail right. Texas at least had the decency to score TDs, three in fact, but also got into the incompetence act by missing an XP as well. So we get Florida State vs. Florida in the Round of 32. I think we all know how it's going to end. Round of 32 Matchups - Baylor Region 1: Baylor vs. 4: Utah 2: Florida State vs. 3: Florida

ROUND OF 64 - MICHIGAN STATE REGION 1: Michigan State (d. UNLV) vs. 8: North Carolina (d. Northern Illinois) Everyone gets all excited for this one and then it's not Izzo and Roy coming out and then everyone gets all sad and leaves. Which is too bad, because while what they miss is low-scoring, it's a good one. Sparty leads 10-7 at the break, UNC quickly ties it and the teams trade TDs, going into the 4th tied at 17. Heels take the lead with a chip shot FG, but get trapped in their own end of the field and have to take a safety. However, that allows them to keep a one-point lead, 20-19, and when Sparty misses a long 52-yard FG it looks like our second 1 Seed will fall. Spartans don't quit, however, and after stuffing UNC with 2:30 to go, drive the field and connect with a 39-yard FG to claim a 22-20 lead. UNC still has a little less than a minute on the clock and they get just outside of FG range themselves. Alas, they can't hit from 53 and Sparty escapes with the 22-20 win. 4: Arizona State (d. FIU) vs. 5: BYU (d. Texas State) One of the most notorious party schools in America, known from debauchery and hooliganism, takes on Arizona State. We start with yet another safety as the Cougars hold strong and take a 2-0 lead 2: Mississippi State (d. Kent State) vs. 7: Louisiana Tech (d. Colorado) It was basically the Josh Robinson and Dak Prescott show, as on any given play one of the two would try to run the ball past the line of scrimmage. Robinson did ok, 145 yards and a score on 18 tries but Prescott struggled, 24 yards on 17 rushes. And while Dak only threw the ball nine times, he connected on seven of those passes for 154 yards and two scores as CLANGA survived Louisiana Tech 31-16. LaTech threw a lot more, going for 300 yards, but no TDs and were picked twice. 3: Texas A&M (d. Akron) vs. 6: Pittsburgh (d. Purdue) You would figure that a ground and pound team like the Panthers would avoid getting into a shootout with a spread offense team like the Aggies. But that's exactly what happened as Pitt scored four TDs in the 2nd Quarter! A&M wasn't laying down, though they trailed 35-24 at the break. After going with a defensive plan of "jam like 12 or 13 guys into the box", A&M shut down the Pitt attack, scoring the next four TDs themselves and keeping Pitt off the board until a TD with four minutes left made it 52-42. Despite only being down two possession, Pitt didn't have enough firepower left after expending a year's worth and went down in defeat. James Connor was godlike for Pitt, 251 yards rushing and three scores. Kyle Allen threw for a buncha yards but was picked three times. Pitt's kick, Chris Blewitt, missed his only two FG tries of the game, which you would have to expect to happen I mean look at the man's loving name.

ROUND OF 64 - AUBURN REGION 1: Auburn (d. Miami Ohio) vs. 9: Georgia Southern (d. NC State) A whole buncha runnin' the goddang baww, but in totally different fashions that the sim has no way of accounting for, mostly. In terms of yardage GSU won handily, 56 rushes for 404 yards as compared to 270 on 55 for War Eagle. However, Nick Marshall might be the best at throwing the ball without setting his feet or doing any of that traditional QB poo poo, as he propelled Auburn to a 23-10 halftime lead. Golden Eagles weren't done, as they scored three TDs in the 4th to take the lead at 30-26 with 2:30 left. But Auburn had some bullshit up their sleeves as they drove down to the 8 with :17 left, where Marshall found Sammie Coates for the winning score, 33-26. GSU totally should have made a bowl this past year. 4: Arizona (d. Hawai'i) vs. 5: Duke (d. Appalachian State) The only times a team scored twice in a row was Duke getting a Shaq Powell TD in the 1st and then a FG in the 2nd. It meant a close game, as Duke led 20-17 going into the 4th, where the teams traded TDs before a Wildcat FG tied the game at 27 with 4:30 left. However, Duke took their time, drove down to the 3 with thirty ticks left on the clock, and kicked the game winning 20 yard FG to advance 30-27. After the game Coach K cut down the goalpost. 2: Ole Miss (d. Southern Miss) vs. 7: Penn State (d. Toledo) Sweet Jesus was this a shitshow. Neither team could run the ball, combining for 200 yards. To complicate matters, the QBs couldn't hit the broadside of a barn either; Christian Hackenberg was 12 of 31 for 165 yards and three picks. His counterpart, the esteemed Bo Wallace, M.D., was 18 for 37 for 278 yards. However, the good doctor only threw one pick and threw a TD pass as well, which was more than what the Rebs needed to advance, 14-3. 3: Marshall (d. Louisiana-Monroe) vs. 11: Fresno State (d. Virginia Tech) The final second round matchup could have been better than the last game if they just all fell down like electronic football players. Fresno led 10-0 after one, but Marshall buckled down and limited Fresno to just three more FGs the rest of the way while uncorking their offense and dominating, 41-19. Rakeem Cato wasn't great, 18-33, 207 yards, 3 TDs but 3 INTs as well. Round of 32 Matchups - Auburn Region 1: Auburn vs. 5: Duke 2: Ole Miss vs. 3: Marshall

Time for Round 3! ROUND OF 32 - OREGON REGION 1: Oregon (d. Eastern Michigan, Navy) vs. 5: Tennessee (d. Bowling Green, West Virginia) Vols did a good job of keeping the Quackers off the board in the first quarter, getting a short TD pass themselves to take the lead. Ducks evened it early in the 2nd, then kicked a pair of FGs (sigh) to take a six point lead, cut to three with a long Tennessee FG for a 13-10 Oregon halftime lead. Oregon got two scores in the third, same as Tennessee except one of those was a FG. Vols did tie the game 27-all midway through the 4th, but a short Royce Freeman run for his third TD of the day put Oregon up for good with five minutes left. Ducks advance to the Sweet 16. Tennessee was led by Pig Howard in receptions, and I can only imagine his parents must have hated him for that to be his name. 2: Oklahoma (d. New Mexico, Boston College) vs. 11: San Diego State (d. Houston, Ohio) For all the love they've gotten for being one of two double-digit seeds in the Round of 32, this is the first Power 5 conference team the Aztecs are facing. Sooners show up early with a FG and a Samaje Perine 5-yard TD scamper, but SDSU gets on the board with a 1-yard TD plunge of their own. They trade TDs in the second half and take the third quarter off before poo poo gets real in the 4th. SDSU ties the game with a FG 17-17, Perine gets a 60-yard TD run, SDSU kicks another FG because this sim loving loves field goals, Perine gets an even longer TD run, 67 yards this time, for his third score of the game. Aztecs finally realize they can't match TDs with FGs and get one midway through the fourth, and tack on a 2-point conversion to be down one score, 31-28. Getting the ball back with five to go, SDSU kills four minutes before kicking a short FG to tie the game at 31. Sooners can't do anything with the minute they have left and we go to OT. OK gets the rock first but miss a 35 yard field goal and it looks like they'll be SDSU's latest upset victim. But the Sooner D buckles down and causes the Aztecs to lose yardage, and their even longer FG try for the win, from 46, misses left. Our first 2OT game, SDSU once again goes backwards and miss left once more, this time from 51. Sooners pound Perine down to the 7, where they boot a casual 24 yarder to win 34-31.

ROUND OF 32 MATCHUPS - ALABAMA REGION 1: Alabama (d. Georgia State, Washington State) vs. 4: Miami (d. Ball State, South Carolina) Bama nearly was upset by Wazzu because the Tide don't do well with teams that say gently caress It I'm Going Deep. Fortunately for them, Miami isn't that style a team. Regardless, Bama found themselves in another shootout, with Duke Johnson ripping off 49 and 70 yard TDs runs in the 1st. Not to be outside, TJ Yeldon went 49 for a score and Amari Cooper grabbed a short score. Add a Miami FG and they led 17-14 after one, not the way Bama wanted this to go. They settled down in the 2nd, with Bama hitting two short FGs (again why) for a 20-17 lead at the break. Johnson got his third score early in the 3rd to put Da U back up, which was countered by yet another Tide FG and a TD to lead 30-24 after three. More trading of FGs because this sim hates me before TJ Yeldon went 38 for his second score and Bama led 39-27 due to missing the two-pointer. Duke Johnson got his fourth TD of the game on a 59 yard scamper and it was a five point game, 39-34. Yeldon finally put Alabama up for good with his third score, and one last FG for the road advanced the Crimson Tide 49-34. Yeldon was 182 yards on 24 rushes, 3 scores, but Duke Johnson outdid him with 293 yards on 23 runs and four TDs. 2: Arkansas (d. Wyoming, Indiana) vs. 3: Kansas State (d. San Jose State, Michigan) Nothing much happened in the 1st Quarter, Bill Snyder hadn't woken up yet and bert wouldn't come out until he could control his throbbing erection from the last game. Hogs did get a FG in the 1st, but things finally broke open in the second. Both teams traded two touchdowns and a K-State FG tied everything at 17 after thirty minutes of play. Pigs looked to put the game away in the third after another trading of FGs with Jonathan Williams running for 32 and 64 yard touchdowns and they led 34-20, 37-20 early in the 4th after another FG. But Bill Snyder used a Phoenix Down and his Wildcats came storming back, a Jake Waters QB scramble with 16 seconds left to tie the game at 37 all, since Snyder elected to kick the XP instead of going for two and the win. Our second OT game of this round, Arky forces K-State back and they settle for a FG, whereas bert pounds the rock some more and Jonathan Williams gets his third TD to advance Arkansas 44-40. The first place and last place teams in the SEC West will meet in the Round of 16. Oddly enough, bert only ran 39 times, outclassed by K-State running 60 times. Arkansas did outrush their opponents however, 218 to 203. Round of 16 Matchup - Alabama Region 1: Alabama vs. 2: Arkansas

ROUND OF 32 - OHIO STATE REGION 1: Ohio State (d. New Mexico State, Oregon State) vs. 4: Nebraska (d. Vanderbilt, Boise State) Backs were impactful early, as Ezekiel Elliott and Ameer Abdullah each had short TD runs in the 1st. Buckeyes kicked a FG to take a 10-7 1st Quarter lead, but Huskers countered with a score and a long FG to go up 17-10, and kept the lead at the break even with the Buckeyes putting another three on the board. We all skipped the 3rd Quarter, and three seconds in the 4th Elliott got his second TD with a short 1-yard dash to put Ohio State up 20-17. Not to be outdone, Abdullah went 66 yards a little more than a minute later to reclaim the lead for the Huskers 24-20. Finally a QB decided to have an impact in this game as J.T. Barrett ran in from 8 yard out to put OSU up 27-24, and Nebraska missed a 58 yard FG for the tie as time ran short. Postgame, Bo Pelini whipped Taylor Martinez with his belt for old times' sake. 2: Stanford (d. Tulsa, Western Kentucky) vs. 3: Georgia Tech (d. FAU, Illinois) Let's run the ball some loving more! Now, Tech's wishbone is great against teams that rely more on athleticism and instinct over scheme. Stanford, however, isn't one of those teams, and it's hard to see how the wishbone would do a number on them when they're one of the few schools capable of shutting down Oregon's offense. Or at least slowing it down. They trade TD runs in the 1st, and then get into a FG kicking contest (....) in the 2nd, Stanford winning that 2-1 for a 13-10 halftime lead. From there the Trees would take over, scoring the next three TDs to effectively put this one away. GT gets back into it late but it's a throwing score, and if Paul Johnson is throwing the ball you know things have gone wrong. It's also for naught, as Stanford gets a 79 yard TD run from Barry Sanders to counter the counter and win 41-18. Either Barry did one of those grad transfer things from OkieSt like 25 years after the fact or that's his kid and it makes me feel really, really old.

ROUND OF 32 MATCHUPS - TCU REGION 1: TCU (d. SMU, Kentucky) vs. 4: Missouri (d. UTSA, Louisville) #DisrespectedTeams. We all know how TCU split the Big 12 title with Baylor and fell out of the playoff because of reasons. At 10-2 in the regular season last year, Missouri should have had a case to been in one of the New Years' Bowls, except that they lost to Indiana and that knocked them out, which is a pretty good reason to be honest. Frogs go up 10-0 after one and it seems like it's just an inevitability until they advance. But Mizzou wakes up in the 2nd, scoring twice to take the lead 14-10. Trevone Boykin runs in from 3 yards out to put TCU back on top 17-14, but the Tigers tie the game with a FG for a 17-all halftime score. Somehow, Missouri, loving Missouri, shuts out TCU and that explosive offense in the second half while getting two Russell Hansbrough rushing TDs, giving him three for the game, to knock out our second 1-Seed 31-17. Mizzou, did that great D-Line play they've had, did sack Boykin six times so I guess that had something to do with it. 2: USC (d. Army, East Carolina) vs. 3: Wisconsin (d. North Texas, Virginia) Melvin Gordon stormed out of the game with a 52-yard TD run to put Badgers on the board first. But it was countered by Javorius Allen matching that run to the foot and tying the game up, and so the rushing matchup was on. Gordon went for 225 on 28 carries, but only found the end zone that one time. Allen, meanwhile, had 236 yards on two less carries, and ended up rushing for 13, 61, 6, and 8 yard scores after his 1st Quarter dash to effectively beat the Badgers by himself, 49-27. The 13/61/6 yard scores all came in the 2nd, and while USC only led 35-24 at that point this sucker was over. Round of 16 Matchup - TCU Region 4: Missouri vs. 2: USC
