I have to chime in on the debate about the BCS championship game tonight. Oklahoma, a team that lost to the No. 3 team, Texas, by 10 points on a neutral field earlier this season was No. 1, by a computer's calculations. They were paired with the computer-ranked No. 2, Florida and lost on a neutral field. Florida's only loss, by a mere 1 point, came earlier in the year to a team that finished the season ranked No. 25, Ole Miss. Texas' only loss was by 6 points in the waning seconds of an away game by a Texas Tech team that had been ranked as high as No. 2 before a big loss to Oklahoma and Ole Miss in the Cotton Bowl.
So should No. 2 be No. 1 now? What about No. 3? What do the computers say? How about the coaches? Everyone knows anything knows the BCS system is a joke and this season should be reason enough to trash the system. With the national championship game in the rear-view mirror, has anything been resolved? It seems there's far more questions than answers. What about the nation's only undefeated team - Utah? I think I agree that Utah has as good a claim on national prominence as anyone. But, I'm still pulling for the Horns to get a piece of the title this year. Why not?
Hook 'em!
