It was a 1 TD victory that could and should have gone the other way. Kevin Faulk makes that catch 99 times out of 100, the one time he didn't. the Colts snatched it up. Otherwise, it may have been a different outcome. Either way a 1 score victory is by no means domination.Aitchhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08465798018639732646noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33624629.post-1164633626319178922006-11-27T08:20:00.000-05:002006-11-27T08:20:00.000-05:001.

Last I checked, Oklahoma is not a one-loss team (or did Stoops get a forfeit from Oregon when I wasn't looking?).

You do remember that Wisconsin is also a Big Ten Conference Loser, right? In fact, the standings go OSU, UM, Wisconsin (There is a system for determining conference champions - the word "obvious" doesn't need to come into play, as though there were some sort of poll used to determine a champion.).

It boiled by blood when Nebraska in '01 and Oklahoma in '03 made the BCS title game despite not winning their conferences. Now I know the Big Ten doesnt have a championship game, but Ohio State is the obvious champ of that conference. And you know what, when it comes down to choosing from among 3 or 4 one-loss teams to place in the title game, I think not winning your conference should be a deal-breaker.<BR/><BR/>With that in mind, I would rank the teams most deserving of the #2 spot as follows:<BR/><BR/>1) USC. But if they lose...<BR/>2) Florida. But if USC and UF lose...<BR/>3) Rutgers. But if they lose to WVU...<BR/>4) Louisville. But if they lose to UConn...<BR/>5) And here we have a problem... two loss (really one loss?) Big 12 champ Oklahoma or one loss Wisconsin? <BR/><BR/>Yes, I said it: Michigan should already have been offered the Rose Bowl--even Wisconsin should get to Glendale over the Wolverines.

I don't think they have a chance in bloody hell.<BR/><BR/>Here're my rankings, based on ability to beat OSU:<BR/>1. Michigan (slippery field negated two top 5 defenses, and they still played shot for shot)<BR/>2. (tie)Arkansas (with one month to prepare, god knows what that offense could do--switching the QB would be a start)<BR/>2. (tie)LSU (with one month to prepare, maybe their QB could minimize those execution mistakes)<BR/>4. Florida (good enough to beat anybody, but no rhyme or reason to how or when it happens)<BR/>5. USC (played their entire season quite well, but Carroll proved he's mortal last year)<BR/><BR/>Of course, in six weeks, I'll probably be eating those words.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33624629.post-1164575667493558752006-11-26T16:14:00.000-05:002006-11-26T16:14:00.000-05:00Worse than Vick?Worse than Vick?Stevehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07353671003212539401noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33624629.post-1164575614270090472006-11-26T16:13:00.000-05:002006-11-26T16:13:00.000-05:00Alex Smith sucks.
