It wasn't a knock down - my point was Babyblue was being very gracious, given she's a 'Bama fan. I admire that, I think she's cool. 8)

Why does Florida get to play in the Championship? Just curious.

Florida is the ONLY team to lose AT home, to an UNRANKED school. USC lost on the road, Penn State lost on the road, Texas lost their only game on the road in Lubbock, and Oklahoma lost it's only game against Texas at a neutral site.

Now, tell me, why does Florida, ranked 4th and BEHIND Texas, get to play for the BCS championship? Texas DID beat Oklahoma, who appears to be playing Florida in the title game. Texas is getting shafted..big time. USC is too. Their conference might be down this year, but so was the SEC, and the Big 12 was easily the best conference in the land. Oklahoma, Texas and Texas Tech all have 1 loss, and ranked in the top ten. USC also played some actual talent in their OOC schedule. Look up Ohio State. Florida, you got away with an OOC game against Florida State, and also enjoyed feasting on the Citadel. The Citadel? Before you say, well, USC played Virginia and Notre Dame and they suck, those two schools historically are always solid. The Citadel?

Oh, and this little gem as well. Alabama dominated that game for 3 quarters. They manhandled UF at the line of scrimmage. Florida could not stop the run. Why does Saban go away from that in the 4th quarter? There is no way Florida could have stopped Bama's run offense. Baffles the mind. You can be rest assured, that Bob Stoops, who has an even better offensive line, the best in the nation, won't make that mistake. Florida is in for a real rude awakening. The sad thing is, they shouldn't even be there.

The 'neutral site' thing is a very good argument for Texas being selected to go. What they probably looked at, however, was that Oklahoma beat the same teams Texas beat by larger margins. I know I'm biased, but Oklahoma is a stronger, more efficient team than Texas. Plus the dude's name is Colt. You gotta pick a Sam over a Colt. :lol: Good to see you Granny. ;)

Not to mention Texas can't go because they weren't Big 12 champs....OU was Big 12 champion, and Florida was SEC champion.....Florida is going to get it's collective asses handed to them.

Fuck Florida. :lol:

Not arguing with you on OU going. I am making the case for Texas to be there as well or SC. They are BOTH more deserving than Florida, period.

Regarding your argument Rick, Alabama has only one loss- Florida by 11. They beat Ole Miss by 4, a team Florida LOST to, AT HOME no less.

Being champion doesn't mean anything. In the BCS, it's the highest ranked team via computer and human. Besides, technically, Texas and Texas Tech are also Big 12 Champions.

Yeah, they've got to scrap this BCS system and get a regular playoff system. It'll never be fair until they do that. And a playoff system would work very well in college.

The way the BCS is set up, they should look at the schedules before the seasons starts. And let it be known the only teams that have a shot at the National Championship - based on the strength of schedule. Cause that's basically what it is.

If Penn State went undefeated, I doubt they would be in the BCS game.

Yes and no. Schedules are made 3 to 4 years in advance. Example: How was USC to know Virginia would suck and Notre Dame would be an embarrassment; again. Now, Penn State on the other hand is well, Penn State, but JoePa has to do better OOC than Coastal Carolina, Syracuse and Temple. Playing Oregon State was respectable, but the other three? That's on you Paterno.

Yes they would. Big Ten Champs carries with it some leverage and they did beat Ohio St, Mich St and Illinois along with Oregon State.

True, but I guess it only carries weight when you go undefeated, because the top 5 teams ALL have one loss....and that AUTOMATICALLY puts PSU out of it?!

Ok, then how about Utah and Boise State? 12-0 each.

Before you laugh yourself silly, remember Boise beat the red out of Oklahoma in the Fiesta Bowl with a last play Statue of Liberty. That was awesome.

I agree....those two teams are undefeated, and thus should play for the title. But the BCS is political.

Recheck your logic. Are you saying that they don't deserve to be in the championship game because they would get crushed?

So if OU, and UF are the two teams, and one of them blows out the other by....say....30 pts. That the losing team didn't deserve to be there? Now that's some damn fuzzy logic you be presentin', Granny.... :lol:

Darn it! Running out the door I heard my computer chirp. Curiousity killed the cat...my answer?

No, just saying Utah and Boise State play in High School conferences. Boise St would be a 5th place team at best in a power league. Utah is the same.

Utah sked: UNLV, Weber State, Air Force, Wyoming, New Mexico, SDSU and that powerhouse Michigan(lol).

Boise St triumphs against these monster schools: Idaho State(scary I tell ya), Bowling Green, Louisiana Tech, Sou Miss, San Jose St, Utah St, Idaho, Nevada and New Mexico St. Frightening sked. :roll:

Of those schools want to compete with the big boys, join a major conference. The problem there, Boise St and Utah would most likely want to join the PAC 10, but their academics are not up to par.

Take care children. Off to walk the dog in the snowy parks of Philadelphia.
