It doesn't count more than other games. I stand by statement that OU played a tougher schedule. Also, OU knew that could tank that game...maybe a different team shows if they HAD to win? I don't know.

They don't inlcude margin of victory either. OU was stomping teams all year long. If MOV is a factor it helps OU.

Fresno St. really wasn't the best baseball team last season.

Given the rules, OK deserved to be in. IMO, the rules should have been changed after 2001 Neb to stop them from going.

That's my point. That game decided who would be the Big XII Conference Champion, so it meant more than any of their regular season games. According to the guidelines of the BCS, it could not count more.

But it should have.

Based on your numerous posts on this matter, it's obvious that you prefer a beauty pageant.
