People seem to overlook that there can only be one national champion every year.

I do think a fresh start at a new school would do wonders for him though.

did you miss the 08 season? his 08 team was freaking loaded and lost a close title game to another great team. Since then his teams haven't been as good thou, I will admit that.

9-5 against Texas and 8 Big 12 titles (7 of those outright). Y'all forget how bad OU was before he got there (in the 90's, not talking all time of course).

In a system where only two teams out of 100+ have a chance to play for a championship, top coaches don't get exposed as much. Now when the playoffs start in a couple of years and the access expands to 4, then 8, then 16 as we ALL know it will, then coaches will start being held accountable for not even making it to that point.

both teams went into that game with 2 losses.
wvu was fresh of a 13-9 loss to sub .500 pitt while oklahoma beat #1 mizzou by 3td in the big 12 championship game.

rich rod, the architect of wvu's spread attack left for michigan prior to the fiesta bowl. the argument could definitely be made that oklahoma was the stronger team going into that game(vegas thought so, and had them favored by 8 pts)
