  • I hate to say it, but the BCS got it right. Bama was clearly a better team than LSU. But that being, said it clear that a plus one is the only way to go to determine the actual champion.

    If you give the second best team in a conference another chance, then you have to also include some other one loss team as well. I hope thats what comes of these BCS meetings. The plus one can keep the bowl system in tact. The Rose Bowl would be the only bowl that would have to change in order to keep a true 1-4, 2-3 matchup.

    You guys need brain exams if you don't think Alabama has one of the best defenses ever.

    Bingo! Bama was the best team this year for sure. Nice to see Saban give props to his opponent...something Chizik never did!

    I think they were the best team, but still disagree with their right to be there. Here's my logic: if the best team we've ever seen loses their starting qb who happens to be their best player for three games and loses them, goes on to dominate every other game they played but don't win their division, do they deserve to be there? No. Okie St had the better resume and deserved the chance, doesn't matter who's better.

  • It would have still been fun to see how Ok St or Stanford would have fared. I don't think bama holds either under 24 points, and I'm not convinced bama could score more than that vs either of them.

  • wig you are correct. However, I have two dogs that were watching the game with more comprehension than Les Miles. Also good that Honey Badger didn't win the Heisman-based on the way he (didn't) use his hands and arms tonight he would have completely whiffed the hand off.

  • Not being a party pooper, but I would hate to see the Rose Bowl go away from Pac 12 vs. Big 10. I would like to propose a "Plus 2" - it would just be one more week. Go back to the old days and old traditional match-ups and after Jan 1, take the Top 4 and then do the plus 2. That way we get to keep our traditions - Conference Champions would be playing in the Major Bowls, and the Bowl wins would have even more meaning. It would take some logistics and obviously whoever ended up #5 would bitch, but I think it would be doable and we would be done BEFORE most schools got back into session.

    Alabama didn't even win their division, yet they're National Champions. That's just never gonna sit well with me. Not even saying that they're undeserving, because they clearly are. I just hope this game goes down as the one that REALLY gets the playoff discussion going.

    Clearly the better team. It's not always about resume. They should have won the first game and they dominated the 2nd game. That's an NFL defense out there.
