Texas-OU discussion

ESPN keeps showing the margin of victory difference between Texas and OU. I really don't care which one of em go to the Little 12 title game but i think in fairness it should be Texas cause they won the head-to-head on a neutral field. Bob Stoops is totally classless IMO. He runs the score up more than any other coach i've ever seen and i have zero respect for that guy. He could've taken a knee the other night but was dead set on getting 61 against OK State. I remember his little snide arse remarks in the 03 title game interview he directed at Saban and that pissed me off. If they make it in Bama or Florida will shut his Offense down. They haven't played a team with a defense all year except Texas. Go SEC!

I think Texas got screwed IMO. Head-to-head matchup. Enough said.

They ran the ball right up the gut for about a 30 yard TD. Where was the defense?
They ended up in the Big XII championship game so how can you fault him for any decisions he made?

Especially when you consider that Mack took Colt McCoy out of the game in the 4th qtr against A&M (which, unfortunately, may have hurt his Heisman hopes on paper).
Then again, he lives in Oklahoma. Ain't nothing there to be "classy" for.

How 'bout Texas Tech 39 Texas 33 ?
And before you talk about Texas Tech's blow out loss,remember it was Oklahoma who planted it on them.

Texas Tech disagrees.
This was a 3 way tie, not 2 way tie.

Yea and OU was still airing it out the whole 2nd half when they were up 40! That's chicken shite. They never took their starters out on defense and only took Bradford out for one series. I don't care for Stoops. He can't win the big game away from Norman.

This is just another example of why the b.c.s./n.c./poll's are a fraud.
Texas is being shafted due to the b.c.s. ranking. Why are polls ranking OU higher? When you lose. boy that's genius. If texas plays ou after the loss to texas tech, they are in. What a difference. same teams different date.
B.C.S. championship is pure luck. Every year proves it. OU wins, are they lucky? certainly wasn't skill when you lost U.T. and they have the same record.

Yes he does and because of it his team will play in the NATIONAL CHAMPIONSHIP.
Until the system does not count margin of victory as part of the championship picture, you MUST play your team to what gets you into the championship.
MOV today is as important as any other factor. Good for Stoops.

Well it was just a few years back when OU was blowing people out and beat A$M 77-0 and made it to the title game over undefeated Auburn. And what happened then??? USC embarassed them. And that's gonna happen again

So Texas should go because they're one loss is to a worse team than OU's one loss? That don't make sense either.

The year Oklahoma beat Texas A&M 77-0,LSU beat them in the title game.

Three way tie. Texas' and Techs' non-conference schedules are coming back to bite them. At least OU played Cincinnati and TCU.

running up the score = boost in rankings.
If OU had only won by 7-10 points, Texas may be playing next weekend instead of OU.
