Even the SMU fans know that it should have been Alabama in this game. Playing close against a Clemson team which didn't even deserve to be in the playoff was not a valid excuse to let SMU slip in. Alabama can slug it out with the big boys, tiny private SMU just gets embarrassed on this stage.

Penn State-SMU TV info, time, spread: Gameday Central

SMU's only victory may be their ability to deplete Penn State of fireworks.

Not only should we not start threads about Smut but we definitely shouldn’t be talking smack about someone getting their asses kicked in a bowl game.

We too would get destroyed by Penn State. It's just another year that the ACC champion didn't deserve to be in the playoff, yet they somehow had a second slip in this year at the cost of significantly stronger teams.

Yeah, if Bama hadn’t gotten beat by 6-6 Vandy and 6-6 OU they would have gotten their chance.  
 

Two pick 6’s plus another interception on 2nd and goal will get you beat, especially against a good team.

I would have rather watched Alabama in Southbend or in Happy Valley. Neither of those teams should have been there.

I really can’t wait for the split. Clemson Florida State North Carolina and Miami need to get going on up out of the ACC so these first round games are more interesting. 

We are!

Blowouts can happen, even when both teams obviously deserve to be there.  Just a few years ago Clemson annihilated Alabama in the national title game. 

 

I'm not saying SMU was super worthy, but you can't just go by rankings....league champions deserve a shot (yeah SMU wasn't a champ, but this same line of thinking has been used against Boise State and others for years).
