re: Will the 2011 football team ever be honored at a football game?

Bama got a mulligan after losing to LSU at home during the regular season and failing to win both the SEC and the SEC West. Instead of playing a conference championship game, they got to just sit at home and do nothing and advance to the National Title Game, because the polls favored them for biased

Not at all. Okie St. lost the week after we did. The polls were adjusted as you lost. Bama was number 2 the final 2 weeks of he season and never did anything to lose that spot.
Had the Big 12 had a championship game it more than likely would have given Okie St. the nod but they didnt. It bit them last year as well.
Still, okie st. could have been in the title game if not for the loss after we lost. We were second in the polls by a good margin after their loss to Iowa St.
Same thing happened to UF in 2009. If they based it on the best body of work we should have re-matched UF in the title game instead of Texas. UF's season had been much much better but the polls didnt work that way. Saw both UF and UT in person and Texas would have been beaten by 3 TD's by the Gators. There was no selection. If you were 1 or 2 in the polls you played for the title. During the season, If you lost, you dropped, just the way it worked. There was no way Okie st could have lost to ISU and not dropped.
