BCS Title Game Goes To Plaid Early, Texas Leads 3-0

With just over five minutes played in the BCS title game, we’ve seen some early uncharacteristic boneheaded play by Alabama including a momentum-murdering Blake Gideon interception of Alabama's punter that has to spiritually redeem whatever transgressions he committed last year against Texas Tech.

Unfortunately for Texas, we’ve also seen Colt McCoy trudging off to the locker room with what’s being called a shoulder injury.
