- What an utter mismatch. The one thing I'll take away from this game is how Barnes didn't allow the players to go through the motions. The defense was tight the entire game, and our rebounding was outstanding. 22-9 on the offensive boards says it all about our effort. No one played more than 25 minutes, and yet 6 players had at least a +/- of +30. Barnes really can't call off the dogs, as our 2nd string is good enough blow out bad teams. Only Pittman and Melchionni had a ppm less than 1.40.
- Speaking of Dexy, he's now only played 25+ minutes in 2 of 9 games. I'm hoping his lack of playing time doesn't get him fatigued in the UNC/Mich. St games.
- Look out if Bradley continues to get minutes at PG. We can throw out a very big, athletic, and talented lineup, such as Jordan at the 2, James at the 3, and then Pittman with Johnson/Wangmene/Hill at the 4.
- Lot of things I'm interested in for our next few games. Will anything change as far as Barnes' rotation patterns? How will the minutes be distributed? Not only are we talented, but we're versatile. Rick would be smart to milk the mismatches in our favor (and we know on this team, there will be mismatches every game we play regardless of the opponent). I'm hoping PB, AW, and the rest of the gang can give us a nice preview going into the UNC game. Both Pittman and Bradley have already called this game a "national championship".

Brian Kelly to ND, won't coach Cinncinatti BCS bowl game
Goes to show you just how important this BCS bowl game is to Kelly. I imagine if more was on the line (i.e. a playoff situation), Kelly wouldn't be focusing on any job offers until the end of the postseason. Anyway, it still leaves a very sour taste for him to leave before the BCS bowl game. I'd like to see a new NCAA rule which prohibits schools to contact other coaches of teams that made a bowl game until the bowl season is over. Thoughts?

Apologies for taking forever. GhostofBigRoy has already posted his own Pittsburgh and Rice gameflows with analysis, so be sure to check those out. I've already made my own gameflows for the games, and planned to post them all in one fanpost after I finished the Rice one. Little did I know that Ghost was already making his own. Anyway, here are the gameflows for the last three games, with some of my own brief thoughts:

Cotton Bowl appears to be Oklahoma St. vs Ole Miss
"DALLAS -- The AT&T Cotton Bowl Classic matchup will feature Oklahoma State and Mississippi, a source close to the game confirmed Tuesday.
The Jan. 2 game will be played at Cowboys Stadium in Arlington for the first time. The selected teams won't be made official until later this week or after Saturday's Big 12 and SEC championship games.
More on the Big 12, area colleges
Richard Durrett of ESPNDallas.com weighs in on issues facing Big 12 South teams, as well as TCU, SMU, UNT and other area colleges. Blog.
• Tim Griffin's Big 12 blog
• Blog network: College Football Nation
The Cotton Bowl gets the first selection of Big 12 teams after the BCS is determined, making Oklahoma State (9-3) an easy choice. But the Capital One Bowl takes the first SEC West team ahead of the Cotton Bowl, and they will likely take LSU. That left the Cotton Bowl to choose between Ole Miss (8-4) and a handful of 7-5 teams."
Ben Wells out, Chiles doubtful for A&M game
"Texas backup safety Ben Wells will miss Thursday's game at Texas A&M with an injury to his right ankle.
Texas head athletic trainer for football Kenny Boyd also said that wide receiver John Chiles is doubtful with a right ankle injury.
Starting cornerback Aaron Williams has been cleared to play after being hobbled by a right knee injury. Williams, who started Texas' first eight games this season, has been replaced by Chykie Brown in the Longhorns' starting lineup."
