Before I start, this post is going to come across as sour grapes, but it's really not. Because I'm not a Duck fan.
That's important to know. This national championship game was a no-win situation for me. It was either have Auburn win and never heard the end of it from annoying SEC fans, or have Oregon win and never hear the end of it from annoying Oregon Duck fans. It was like choosing between getting stabbed in the ear or getting stabbed in the balls. Trust me, neither scenario was ideal.

But I thought the Ducks would win this game. And they played a pretty good game, although very far from perfect. The biggest problem for the Ducks in that game and the reason they lost was because they don't have anyone on the team that, when it comes to goal line situations, can just punch the ball in instead of dancing around the goal line.
But Matt Hinton over at Yahoo! Sports brings up a very interesting point, about the play that pretty much single-handedly won the game for Auburn.
