How do you know okie st wasn't as good? They had a very good resume as well


They lost to IOWA STATE and went on to lose their bowl game. They were good, but a different class then LSU and Alabama. Trying to argue they were top 2 in retrospect is as silly as Alabama arguing we were better then Auburn and FSU in 2013 after losing the "kick 6" game as we were closing in on a 3 peat otherwise.

I love how Iowa St suddenly became the worst team of all time. No, that was not a quality loss and Iowa St wasn't a good team, but they did finish 6-7 on the year and weren't the worst team in the Big 12.

False. They went on to beat Stanford and finished the season 12-1 and Big 12 Champion.
Going into the mulligan game, Okie had a better record and stronger strength of schedule. Bama's best achievement was whipping Ark and that glorious loss to LSU. For some reason, quality of loss became more important than quality of wins. Only for Bama.

Applying the Bama eye test standard and it's Ohio St-Michigan in a 2006 rematch. And probably Ohio St-Georgia in 2007.
