EPTWe need a playoff, but in the meantime we need a different system of picking the top teams. Again if this had been the voters' choice, that still would have sucked, but it'd be more understandable.

The whole 45-35 remember is bullshit. Texas had a chance to get it done on the field and lost to TT. No argument about the NC game, go SEC! | ||

And none of this would even matter if the Big 12 didn't have stupid tiebreaker rules. Oh well, if OU goes to the national championship maybe they won't get blown out as hard as the last time. Also if OU manages to lose to Missouri, it would be hilarious and entirely BCS-like to send USC to the NC game. | ||

Of course playing good teams later in the season counts for more than playing good teams four weeks in a row in the middle of the season, and getting beaten by double digits early counts for less than losing by one miracle touchdown three weeks later. Also playing against a string of unranked opponents in between your loss to #5 and your big win over the #2 counts for more than playing four ranked opponents in a row (and losing by a miracle in the last game). Sick BCS computer logic. Exactly. Alabama is the only team from a major conference who's gotten it done every week. Beyond them it's a bunch of one-loss teams. If Texas and Oklahoma are the two most-deserving, it should go to Texas. If Texas Tech and Texas were the two most-deserving (ie, had they not gotten blown out and not played two FCS schools), then TTU should go. But since Tech scheduled a bunch of completely ridiculous creampuffs and their loss was not even close, they're out of the discussion. And how people ignored that Texas played OU, Missouri, OSU, and TTU all consecutively is another mystery. And none of this would even matter if the Big 12 didn't have stupid tiebreaker rules. Absolutely true. By any other of the 12-team conferences' tiebreakers, Texas wins the conference. Amazingly, only two (MAC, CUSA) use anything close to the same system. This really needs to be standardized. Oh well, hopefully Missouri will pull off the upset. Texas would probably go in that case, but if USC got called up they are also a very deserving team; their loss was pretty much a fluke too. Unlikely though - Missouri just lost to Kansas which is not a good team. | ||

They might be better than Texas, it's possible. But unless it's undeniably obvious that OU would win a rematch, which I don't think it is, then the head-to-head has to separate the two. And yes, this really shows that the BCS is trash. It's like when Florida State got in over Miami in 2000, despite Miami having beaten them. Yeah I don't feel like Alabama has done anything great to get there -- Georgia was obviously overrated. If they manage to beat Florida, though, then they've passed a tough test to keep their perfect record. | ||

Wow it was a great game, if Florida doesnt move into the top position and go to the BCS championship I am going to kill whoever invented the BCS. Great game indeed! All that speculation is unfounded. Beating Alabama is going to shoot UF way up in the computer polls. They'll probably be #2 there. Also top 2 in the voter polls. They're going to the championship for sure. | ||
