All three teams have an argument. My point is we will always pick the argument of the brand name team. This year, the argument was champ game to help brand name team. In 2011, it was about best loss, conference champ meant nothing. We will always move the goalpost to support the team name that sounds better

Alabama and OSU had the same record. Their SOS were a hair apart, advantage to the Pokes. Margin of victory didn't count in the computers as per BCS rules, and that's why OSU had a slight computer advantage. Alabama scored almost 5x as much as its opponents; OSU scored less than 2x as much as its opponents. Had MOV counted, Alabama would have been a unanimous computer #2. The fact is that Alabama's 11 victories were better than OSU's 11 victories, and Alabama's one loss was better than OSU's one loss. All things considered, there's nothing wrong with Bama at #2. So many of you are so in the dark about this. I might as well listen to Jesse "I can't tie a Windsor knot for the life of me" Palmer instead of you.
