"&lt;p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt; Soak it in, Aubie. Spread those tiger wings. You're a champion now. (John David Mercer/USA Today Sports)&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;Each week, Campus Union will delve into the fun, the weird and the wacky of college football with a series called\u00A0Between The Hashes.\u00A0It\u2019s a way to decompress from the madness of the week, and to find a few things that you might have missed.&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;First, a programming note: obviously there will not be a Between the Hashes next Sunday. We will be operating in some capacity during bowl games, as well as offering a season-ending retrospective of everything that happened this year. I just wanted to offer my thanks for those of you who slowly but surely made your way to the piece each week. I hope you enjoyed it even a fraction as much as I did writing it.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;It was the last big week of the regular season -- still Army-Navy to go -- and we had a light slate as far as volume of games was concerned. That didn't take away from the overall entertainment value. Bowl bids were secured, the national championship worked itself out, and there was a fair share of heartbreak.\u00A0Now to the good stuff.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;h2&gt;Depressing pizza is still pizza&lt;/h2&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;No other picture better encapsulated the disappointment of Ohio State's *almost* season. The Buckeyes won 24 straight games over the past two seasons, but they came up empty in the one they needed most.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Surrounded by family, Urban Meyer eats postgame pizza very quietly in corridor beneath Lucas Oil Stadium. pic.twitter.com/80FtTVegWQ&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;\u2014 George Schroeder (@GeorgeSchroeder) December 8, 2013&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;A personal Papa John's pizza in a golf cart in Indianapolis. Triple sad score.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;h2&gt;Rapper's Delight&lt;/h2&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;It wasn't a secret before, but Auburn running back Tre Mason got a lot of attention for his dad being in De La Soul on Saturday while the Tigers played Missouri. Mason had a game for the ages, carrying 46 times (!) for 304 yards and four touchdowns. And people offered their support.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Proud of @DeLaSoulsDugout son Tr\u00E9.... #Auburn&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;\u2014 QTip (@QtipTheAbstract) December 8, 2013&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Thanks to everyone who supported my Son tonight especially those who aren't even Auburn fans lol I'm about to hang out with him and his team&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;\u2014 DJ Maseo; DE LA SOUL (@DeLaSoulsDugout) December 8, 2013&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Even Nelly was at the game, although he maybe wasn't as thrilled with the end result.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Nelly not so happy with minutes to go in SEC title game. pic.twitter.com/69CDzjWLFl&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;\u2014 Chris Doering (@ChrisDoering) December 8, 2013&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;h2&gt;Sign, sign, everywhere a sign&lt;/h2&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;There weren't nearly as many \"WE WANT 'BAMA\" signs as there were in previous weeks, giving way to a much more creative use of poster board, which seems to be making a comeback from the days of presentations on Venezuela's national export and French versions of Jeopardy games during 4th period.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Bob Stoops is a giver. pic.twitter.com/K8fryTnZx3&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;\u2014 SB Nation CFB (@SBNationCFB) December 7, 2013&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;That sign pretty much says it all for most of us http://t.co/rAA5JkOdUq&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;\u2014 CJ Fogler (@cjzero) December 7, 2013&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;This guy.

With the win, quarterback Bryce Petty and Baylor earned a trip to the Fiesta Bowl, which meant awkward prom pictures with a bag of chips.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Ahmad Dixon and Bryce Petty posing with their Tostitos pic.twitter.com/bJ6aLcZuXj&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;\u2014 Max Olson (@max_olson) December 8, 2013&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;h2&gt;Moving Pictures of the Week&lt;/h2&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Northern Illinois wide recevier Juwan Brescacin snagged this Jordan Lynch pass in the end zone early in the Huskies' loss to Bowling Green in the MAC championship Friday.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Welcome to the #SCtop10 Juwan Brescacin. #MACtion http://t.co/9KSzCH164G \u2014 College GameDay (@CollegeGameDay) December 7, 2013&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Teddy Bridgewater had a little fun with Cincinnati's fans, joining in the cheer before Louisville played for the Keg of Nails (please let this series continue in some capacity even though 'Ville is going to the ACC).&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;http://youtu.be/xKkG3ERarvY&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Blake Bell's game-winning touchdown pass against Oklahoma State can't really be watched enough.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;http://youtu.be/ezNgs5RVx_c&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;And look at these Sooners' fans reacting to the play.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;http://youtu.be/ZwTg4fwTrlo&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Baylor danced a lot all year, and now they're crowd surfing too. Bears aren't supposed to be able to do either of those two things. Crazy bears. &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;The Spartans danced too (including coach Mark Dantonio) after winning the Big Ten championship and earning a Rose Bowl berth. &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;h2&gt;Quotes of the Week&lt;/h2&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;After falling to Stanford for the second time this season, Arizona State coach Todd Graham put it about as well as he could have.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Graham: I'm a really bad loser. You don't learn a lot from losing other than you don't want to lose any more. \u2014 Brad Denny (@BDenny29) December 8, 2013&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;When asked whether he was upset at all by costing the conference money by spoiling a chance at Northern Illinois making a BCS game, Bowling Green's Dave Clawson went with sarcasm.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;\"We won a championship but we aren't gonna be able to buy jock straps next year,\" Clawson said.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;And bless this unnamed Florida State player:&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Best part of postgame? One FSU player saying he's excited to play an SEC team for title bc he never has in his career. (Florida?
