The best thing about college football is that we all feel like we own it. Thats occasionally the worst thing, too. But the passion that the sport engenders is what separates it from the NFL, thank goodness.This has been an unusual year, from the uber-dominance of Alabama every single week to the uber-goofiness of the Big Ten Conference race, college footballs postseason inkblot test. If you have an opinion about the College Football Playoff, theres a Big Ten team for you.Believe in the sanctity of a conference champion? Believe in rewarding the best team? Believe that a good loss is better than a bad win? Yeah, the Big Tens got that.I walked into Lucas Oil Stadium in high dudgeon that a victorious Penn State would be jobbed, that the Big Ten champion that beat Ohio State should be in line ahead of the Buckeyes. In theory, perhaps. In reality, the Nittany Lions neither looked nor played like one of the four best teams in the nation Saturday night. Their chemistry is undoubtable, their spirit unquenchable, and no team east of USC improved more over the course of the season.But I would say the four teams in the playoff are better than Penn State, and No. 6 Michigan beat the Nittany Lions by 39 points. I dont want to see Penn State playing Alabama.The committees decision to reward Ohio State, and not the Big Ten champion, will be fodder for the eight-team playoff crowd. Maybe someone out there wants to decry the injustice of not seeing a rematch of No. 1 Alabamas 52-6 defeat of No. 9 USC, or would love to see an Ohio State-Michigan quarterfinal rematch, or see Clemson play Oklahoma in the postseason for a third consecutive season. The charms of those three matchups escape me.Lets face it. We all see Alabama walking down the 18th fairway of the final round of The Open, and we expect the telecast director to cut to the shot of the engraver etching Nick Sabans name onto the Claret Jug one more time. By this time, the guy ought to be able to do it in his sleep.Alabama is courting history in the College Football Playoff. The semifinals will reprise one famous college football game, and one infamous.Southern football announced itself on the national stage in the 1926 Rose Bowl when Alabama, invited only after Dartmouth, Yale and Colgate said no, beat a Washington team considered unbeatable. The Tide spotted the Huskies a 12-0 lead, but then came back in the second half to win 20-19.We will spend the next four weeks debating Alabamas place in history more than we will debate whether Washington, a team with the kind of speed at the skill positions that has challenged the Crimson Tide, not to mention a smart, athletic defense, will pull off the upset.No team needs a respite more than the Crimson Tide, which lost another defensive starter to injury Saturday when linebacker Shaun Dion Hamilton suffered a right knee injury. Safety and kick returner Eddie Jackson already is out for the year, and cornerback Marlon Humphrey has a tender hamstring.Ohio State and Clemson forever will be linked by the 1978 Gator Bowl, when elderly, infirm Buckeyes coach Woody Hayes punched Tigers linebacker Charlie Bauman after his late interception sealed Clemsons 17-15 victory. Ohio State fired Hayes the next day, guaranteeing Bauman fame he never desired. More college football fans think of that game than of Clemsons 40-35 victory over Ohio State three years ago.The Buckeyes and the Tigers shared a propensity for winning close games, a muscle that Alabama barely even flexed. Ohio State won four games by one score, two of them in overtime over the Wolverines and No. 8 Wisconsin, and two of them over 6-6 Northwestern and 3-9 Michigan State. Perhaps the latter two are why the Buckeyes fell to No. 3.Clemson won six games by seven points or fewer, which begs the question at what point a virtue becomes a liability. The selection committee evidently appreciated that four of Clemsons close victories came against teams in the final 25.But lets not allow the Xs and Os to overtake these games just yet. History is hovering close by, no matter who wins. If Alabama extends its winning streak to 27 games, the comparisons to the sports greatest teams will begin in earnest. And if Washington, Clemson or Ohio State knocks off Alabama, there will be a page in college footballs family bible for that game, too.Either way, the playoff will be making history.

Sale Air Max Outlet . -- Team after team passed on Andre Ellington in the draft. FRISCO, Texas -- Dallas Cowboys left guard Lael Collins is in a walking boot to protect his injured right big toe and a decision on whether he will have surgery will be made in two weeks.Collins said he is going to let it calm down for a couple weeks, see what it does and just keep treating it.He said the hope is that the ligament can heal on its own without surgery. If he had surgery, he would likely miss the season. It is possible he could go on injured reserve and return after eight weeks if it heals well.Sources told ESPNs Josina Anderson and Ed Werder earlier Tuesday that Collins is seeking other medical opinions on his toe. He said the MRI will be viewed by several doctors and a foot specialist but he would not travel to see another doctor.A source told Werder that the injury had nothing to do with pain tolerance, which was asserted by Cowboys owner Jerry Jones on 105.3 The Fan in Dallas.[It] has nothing to do with pain, the source said. The kiid is tough as hell.dddddddddddd Its dependent on the injury.Collins suffered the injury on the extra point after the Cowboys first touchdown in their Week 3 win against the Chicago Bears. He remained on the field for the rest of the first half before having X-rays at halftime. He was replaced by Ronald Leary in the third quarter and watched the game in flip-flops. After the game Jones said the X-rays were negative.Last year, defensive tackle Terrell McClain had season-ending toe surgery after the second game of the season. Sean Lee missed the final 10 games in 2012 because of toe surgery.We know right now I wont be playing, so it wont be any further damage right now, Collins said. Were just doing treatment to treat it and just getting other opinions from the doctors and see what we can do and whats the best thing to do.
