What...Notre Dame not ranked in the top 3? They should have moved up, losing only by 35 yesterday. How come a team the Kutztown State can beat gets nat’l coverage every week?

Sorry but Boise State should not be up there. BCS is a joke....everyone screaming for a playoff but the A$$ clowns who run the thing don’t get it...they can easilty make this work.

How do you think we feel at Texas Tech? Ranked 7th in the country and we don’t get a BCS bowl because they allow each division to have one? Why not let the top 10 teams play in the BCS games?

So the head to head means nothing?

Sad.

I suppose the loser of the title game could claim to be number one by that reasoning.

I agree. Another question is...just suppose that Missouri ups and beats Oklahoma. Who gets the other NC game invite? USC? Penn State?

Yeah, Spitzer was a class act for sure....There is no defending Switzer for the avalanche of slime that has hit OU football the last two months: three years' probation by the NCAA, one player shot by another in the athletic dorm, three others accused of rape and a star quarterback charged with selling cocaine to an undercover FBI agent.

I would assume Texas would move up, as would Texas Tech, but I don’t think it will happen.

45-35. It’s a Texas thang.

Possibly, but that would bring up the other major problem...how can a team play for the National Championship without winning their own conference?

Well, if this scenario doesn’t get the playoff talks moving, nothing will.

Just dang.

Oh well, this has been a great year for the Longhorns regardless, and with Colt hopefully returning next year, we should make easy work of the Okies again next year and be able to kill the Red Raiders in Austin.

So now Oklahoma will play Missouri and easily beat them, then the Gators will beat Alabama, and it will be an Oklahoma/Florida national championship.

UT will most likely play Alabama in the Sugar Bowl.

Woo hoo!

Now for a few days of listening to whining, sniveling, and sour grapes.

Missouri won’t be a cakewalk for Oklahoma either, particularly if it’s cold and wet in Kansas City next Saturday.
