What We Learned Yesterday

First of all, Joe Paterno has officially run out of things to accomplish. Sure another Big Ten title and corresponding BCS bowl berth would be outstanding, but the team's three toughest conference games remain (Nebraska, at OSU, at Wisconsin). Win two and the first-ever Leaders title is yours. But before of all that is just the daily celebration that should be Paterno's remaining games/years/decades on the sideline.
Clemson realistically fell out of the BCS title game race with Saturday's loss to Georgia Tech. But the Tigers should be able to hold on for the Atlantic crown and a spot in the conference title game against the Virginia Tech-Georgia Tech winner (probably).
As for Stanford, they held on to knock off USC in triple overtime. But the Trojans showcased Stanford's weaknesses and Oregon was paying attention. But Luck is on their side, so perhaps they can remain in the national title game hunt.
