Their marquee win? Oklahama? Please tell me you're not talking about Oklahoma.


Alabama will beat the dog shite out of Oklahoma.

The problem with all this is the idea if you go undefeated in a BCS conference you deserve to be the NCG or final four no matter how much stronger a one loss teams schedule turns out to be. OSU who hasn't played hardly anyone in the top twenty for two seasons would be in the BCSCG if not for a final game loss.

Until football returns to a valid SOS approach, we will see shite like we almost saw this season.

coming up with a system that satisfies people with the results is a moving target. The BCS formula has been changed as many years as it has been left unchanged.

Sometimes the "best" team as praised by the national media has the weakest schedule of the teams being considered. Sometimes the "best" team as praised by the national media has the fewest number of quality wins of the teams being considered.

The goalposts get moved regularly because generally speaking people have larger preconceptions about programs than they do about other things like the value of winning your conference, having quality wins on your schedule, etc.
