re: Sirius radio is now talking about how Bama gave us the first game...

We won 11/5. Bama won 1/9. There's no editorializing reality into something untrue.

The idea that you can say Bama is necessarily better from 1/9 required you to remove any context from the game, completely forget 11/5, and dismiss the fact that Bama didn't get into the endzone until the end of the game.

The only thing that could be said is it was an unprecedented move for the voters to disregard the rest of the nation and give Bama a mulligan. Sad for college football as it totally set the precedence of the "eye test". You know the thing we heard for a decade where USC was the nation's best team regardless of their accomplishments on the field.
