Crowning a champion in college football's 64-team playoff

Now is when it really starts to get fun. We're down to 16 teams in ESPN's fictional NCAA football tournament. We saw some upsets, clutch performances and exhilarating finishes in the first two rounds. But this is the point of the tournament when talent usually wins out ... but not always. All four No. 1 seeds are still alive: Clemson, Ohio State, Oklahoma and Alabama. Three of the No. 2 seeds are still playing: Penn State, Texas and Texas A&M.

People are dying, but here you are, stealing other people's work and posting it to soothe your own ego.

What a worthless piece of garbage you are, porch monkey.

You should be ashamed of yourself.
