Auburn 22, Oregon 19

Over the years I've observed that Heisman Trophy winners often follow that achievement with a loss in the subsequent bowl game, and that BCS national championship games often fail to measure up to pre-game hype and expectations. Tonight, Auburn and Oregon played in the BCS title game, with Auburn winning on a literal last-second FG. Final score 22-19. Cam Newton overcame the so-called Heisman Jinx, and the game was exciting with several bizarre plays influencing the outcome. All in all, the game was a satisfactory finale to a season that I found to be more interesting than anticipated.
