Correct. Our body of work before the NC Game was far better than USCs. After the OK beatdown, LSU should have supplanted USC as #1 in the AP. Easily.

They didn't deserve that ranking. That's why computer rankings are mixed into the BCS formula. To take out human bias. AP is full of BS, voters' emotions, allegiances and where they reside come into play in voting.

Losing to Cal, one less win than LSU and OU, weaker SOS, to name a few.

I think he means that OU didn't deserve to be there.

Actually OU was #1 all year long..but got spanked by KSU 35-7 before the LSU game

USC didn't lay it on the line because they were left out

It's all mute now, they have had to forfeit that title
