"I have HUGE screen, and I froze the frame. It WAS on the ground."

50" plasma here and it was all over the ground. Refs must be reviewing on b/w 6". And now here we go with another review. YAAY UT got it this time!

It was caught out of bounds because the player was from Texas.

Uh.....Mr. HR is outraged at hearing Keith Jackson read a promo for a new ABC bed-wetter show: "every year THOUSANDS of Americans are wrongly convicted..."
He's having a coronary and ordering me to get on FR and express his outrage.

Quite amazing how the whining about officials is coming from UT rooters. I was at Rose Bowl last year, in middle of UT Foundation section, and they were so VERY gracious to this Wolverine fan. /sarc

That WAS an interception. These refs are HORRIBLE! (But I knew it would be like that before this game started).

A totally blown call with the dumbass official staring right at it. How the hell can he call that incomplete? Out of bounds I could understand.

OSU has a very good Engineering program.

Those teams fans also have a track record of showing up for bowl games and spending boat loads of cash in the community, another reason why they will get the nod over an Oregon or Kansas State.

In this case fan support etc had nothing to do with it.

As Mike pointed out, the rules mandated all the team picks this year. The six conference champions got automatic bids (that's why FSU is in there). For the two at-large slots, the picks were mandated. If Notre Dame (or any "other" D-1 independent) is in the top 6, they must get a bid. Any team that did not win its conference but is in the top 4 must get a bid. As OSU was #4, that cemented their bid.

So it wasn't a matter of snubbing anybody this time. We all may quarrel with the rules, but they were applied as written.
