Is Brian's post complete, or only partial?

Is it just me, or does Brian's 'Cosmic Rays' post seem to stop suddenly?  I get it if comments are turned off, but the ending just seems too abrupt - not the way his writing usually ends.

As bad as we feel, it's ten times worse for Ohio State.  They basically came within one point of the National Championship.

Had they beaten Georgia they would very likely beat TCU. The big hurdle is Georgia.

Had we beaten TCU we would still have the big Georgia hurdle to overcome.  There is no Ohio State - Georgia to Georgia - Michigan transitive property.  OSU matches up much better with Georgia than we do.  We would not be able to pressure Georgia on offense they way that they did.

Had we beaten TCU, a National Championship for us was a possibility.  Had they beaten Georgia, a National Championship for them was a probability.

It sure was a bummer, especially after leading almost the entire game against the undisputed best team in the nation.

For most of the regular season, the general consensus was that Georgia & OSU were considered the two best teams and were expected to meet up in the CFP. Well, they did meet up and it was a freakin' one-point game. Tell that to anybody last October and nobody would have been surprised.

Sorry about not getting the Purdue UFR out; it is charted and I will post it in the near future. Game analysis of this one can wait until the TCU UFR

I took this to mean there's more to come.
