<p>McCoy lost the Heisman tonight, Ingram won it.</p>
<p>Texas is gonna get crushed against Alabama. TCU and Cincinnati would also get pwned if they played. Texas is a bad number 3 (or 2 now) but they are better than TCU and Cincinnati.</p>
<p>TCU did NOT have a tougher schedule than Texas. But Cincinnati’s was a lot harder than Texas’. </p>
<p>IMO the best teams in the country are Alabama, Florida, and Oregon. I also think that college football this year sucked. Texas isn’t worthy of #2/3; TCU, Cincinnati, Boise, & Iowa are jokes, its crazy how they were ranked so high; USC was disappointing; & the Heisman race was boring with no real Heisman. </p>
<p>I mean, IMO the best teams in the country RIGHT NOW are Alabama, Florida, and Oregon. I don’t care about what happened a few months ago. And I take back how I say Boise is a joke, I like Boise but I think they are rated waaay too high.</p>
<p>Yeah, thinking back to that UT/USC game a few years ago, nobody gave them a chance beforehand. It turned out to be a classic.</p>
<p>I still hope the voters rank TCU higher, though. They dominated all of their opponents, including several ranked teams, while UT just barely escaped.</p>
<p>I think TCU is overrated, they barley beat Clemson and their only “quality” wins were against teams that I don’t think are good (BYU, Utah). This is the BCS, reputation is extremely important and TCU’s program in the Mountain West so they wont be as respected.</p>
<p>Utah having given Oregon (“one of the best teams in the country”) a tough game in Autzen. But of course reputation is a much more reliable indicator of conference strength than non-conference play :rolleyes:</p>
<p>Bama deserves to go to the NC after today’s performance. UT…not so much. What happened to the potent offense? Oh well, Guess it’s Bama-UT in the NC. Though, I sorta wish TCU were going. Still don’t want Cincy in it though, lol!</p>
<p>Hmmm. Cal’s lost today to Washington was unacceptable. Cal needs to pull its **** together. This team somehow always manages to crush the hopes of fans every season, me included. If Cal won, it could have at least managed a kinda respectable 4 way tie for second in the Pac 10. </p>
<p>Also, I thought alabama was always a better team than florida was. USC sucks now.</p>
<p>At least we’re not in a situation like in the past where a Pac-10 team (well really USC…) was snubbed for another program from the Big 10/12 that would loose to the SEC. At least USC performs well in the NC when we play :D</p>
<p>2008: UF-Oklahoma (1-loss Pac-10 team excluded though tied in W-L)
2007: OSU-LSU (2-loss Pac-10 team excluded though tied in W-L)
2006: OSU-UF (2-loss Pac-10 team excluded, acceptable)
2005: USC-Texas
2004: USC-Oklahoma
2003: Oklahoma-LSU (1-loss Pac-10 team excluded, split NC)</p>
<p>Yeah it’s too bad USC finished SIXTH in the Pac-10 this year. But I knew someone would still think they still somehow deserve to be in the National Championship.</p>
<p>Valid agruments can be made for Boise State, TCU, and Cinncinati being chosen for the National Championship. The way our system is set up (poorly) Texas and Alabama are also very good choices. I won’t predict what the National Championship game will bring because I didn’t expect Florida to lose yesterday; especially the way they did…</p>
<p>LOL, I didn’t say USC deserved to play. I was just saying we should be thankful that there’s not an undefeated Pac-10 team that would probably be snubbed for Texas :)</p>
<p>Holy ****! We are going to Pasadena! Bama was going crazy last night!</p>
<p>For everyone who is saying that Texas doesn’t deserve to go, they had a bad game against an underrated Nebraska team. A lot of people (at least here) thought it was going to be a close game and honestly thought Texas could lose. Nebraska’s defense came out to play, and Texas did not have an answer for most of the game. </p>
<p>Playing one bad game against a good team does not mean they do not deserve to go to Pasadena when they have looked like a national championship caliber team during the rest of the season.</p>
<p>Texas played more than one bad game. They struggled against Texas Tech, Oklahoma, Texas A&M, and Nebraska. Overrated offense, all they have is Shipley and McCoy.</p>
<p>Alabama struggled against Auburn, Tennessee, South Carolina, and LSU, but you yourself said they were “one of the best teams in the country.” Right now, Alabama is close to a consensus #1 even though they have struggled against those teams. My point is that every team struggles at some point but they have to survive their schedule. </p>
<p>Also, why would you say that Florida and Oregon are two of the best teams in the country after Florida’s performance last night and Oregon losing twice (one of those loses being a couple of weeks ago)?</p>
<p>In my opinion, Texas and TCU are #2 and #3 in that order because of who Texas has played and how TCU has beaten down everyone on their schedule (save Clemson).</p>
<p>texas sucks, shouldn’t be allowed to play in a BSC bowl let alone the NC. The BSC fails, as always. Texas scheduled nobody out of conference and still struggled. The ref gave them that chance to beat Nebraska in the Big 12 champ game. The Nebraska should have stormed the field like Texas Tech did last year and end the game there before the ref gave Texas 1 second for a field goal.</p>
