Did you hear that announcer for the OU/OSU game say Alabama controlled the game against LSU and really should have won it?


Yep. "A game that Alabama controlled and should have won, but didn't."

WTF?

I truly believe that ESPN's selling it's soul to Saban will actually be the downfall of Bama's chances. It couldn't be any sweeter for me if that is that way it plays out. Living in the land of the the AAA (Alabama Arrogant A'holes) for a month would painful to say the least. I personally would breathe a sigh of relief. You would have to live it to understand it. But there really is no bigger bunch of arrogant sons o bitches than their fan base. Would beating them in the NC be sweet? Damn right it would. But having Okie jump them would be a very close second.

I truly thought that the poll results weren't released so that it'd be a "surprise" on Sunday night.

ANYONE know for certain if the polls are actually made public?

The ratings were HUGE for LSU vs Alabama. ESPiN wants a piece of that..


It aint about ratings. The nation won't tune in for the rematch. However, LSU v OSU? The ratings would be astronomical.

tiger91, I am pretty sure The Coaches (and AP) will be released early. The BCS may hold out the harris though. I can't remember how that works.

Having the coaches poll should be enough to figure out where things are going to go, imo. They usually come pretty close to each other.

Fact: IF bama makes the game, ESPN will then pull a 180 and debate reasons why OSU SHOULD have been selected over Bama. talking heads will take OSU side in droves AFTER they get left out.

This is going to happen. Okie is going to jump Alabama. Why? Because Okie's never been there and the voters don't want an all SEC championship, if it's avoidable. And because of what happened tonight, it is. LSU vs. Oklahoma State! Gonna be sweet!

Thanks. Is this enough if these polls are released and not Harris to figure out the likely scenario?

And I have to ask ... does it pain you that you didn't make it to the last BCSCG in 2007 and may not make this one? And I'd love to buy you a cold one for all that you've done to help us figure this out.

At the very end of their broadcast it had again changed to "projected" to play #2 Alabama. Maybe they are starting to feel a change in the wind themselves.

We will have a VERY good idea when the Coaches and Harris are released.

I was upset I didn't make it 2007 (came down with the flu) and am also upset it looks like I will miss this one. I don't mind not being at the game, but wish I could watch the game in Baton Rouge/LA with friends. Oh well
