Re: who does tOSU play in the title game?
[ QUOTE ]
[ QUOTE ] [ QUOTE ] OU beat Missouri by 21 points. Not by 1, not by 3, by 21. And they only lost to Texas Tech because Bradford was out. If it was just the 2-loss team with the best SOS vs. the best 1-loss team, we'd be looking at Ohio State/Missouri. [/ QUOTE ] This just in: Mizzou has been overrated all year. Just like Kansas. And South Florida. And Cal. And BC. And West Virginia. You guys need to stop talking about the idiotic human polls like they mean anything. [/ QUOTE ] Where did I mention the polls? The point is that Missouri went 11-0 this year in games against teams not named Oklahoma including wins over otherwise 11-0 Kansas and otherwise 9-2 Illinois. They were most certainly not "overrated". Beating them once at a neutral site is a better win than is held by any of the top contenders. Beating them twice including a 3 TD win at a neutral site is much, much better than anything the top contenders have done. [/ QUOTE ] The Illini and the Jayhawks both played easy, easy, easy schedules. That makes it easy to have a good record. All you're doing now is rewarding bad conferences and awful schedules. USC and LSU were #1 and #2 at the start of the season. They played in the toughest conferences in the nation, and nothing has changed. Those are the teams, in whatever order you prefer.

[img]/images/graemlins/confused.gif[/img] Not the hardest, but not easy they did go 5-3 against bowl elgible teams they did play the top 4 in the Big11Ten other than themselves they did play Mizzou in St. Louis, which is a 60/40 Mizzou crowd

Re: who does tOSU play in the title game?

USC and LSU were #1 and #2 at the start of the season. They played in the toughest conferences in the nation, and nothing has changed. [/ QUOTE ] Somewhere in there USC lost to Stanford. I swear this happened, whether you acknowledge it as meaningful or not. So yes, things did change. But lol at you, who blasts others for using meaningless polls, going back to cite the [censored] preseason polls, the most irrelevant of all rankings.

But it did indeed happen and USC should be punished for it accordingly.

But their other loss was to the best team in the nation...in a really close game. They played a tough schedule, and if we had a playoff tomorrow, I'm willing to bet that they'd be the favorites. Is that irrelevant?

They played a decent amount of close games and they looked rather meh today imo.

Re: who does tOSU play in the title game?
IMO, you take the BCS teams with the best W/L and put them in the game. If there's a tie in W/L, go to SOS. "Prettiness of win" doesnt matter for me. Im the same guy who put Kansas #1 when they were the only BCS team 11-0 before they played Mizzou.

They played Washington, but we'll see how that turns out. They also scored a mere 14 points against Michigan, lost at home against Illinois, and "blew out" Northwestern and freaking Minnesota. I still think USC belongs in the national title game. I haven't decided who I think they should play.
