deserved the right to HAVE their a$$ whipped in public due to their valorous effort against Oklahoma
and the fact that everything but the ethereal computer formulae showed they were a better alternative
than a rematch of two teams likely to bore the US to death on championship night. I AM A HOMER, so you
can argue that the Cowboys might well win in NO, but now we will never get to know. EVEN MY valid argument
that the better option would have been for the two "top" teams to play a 3 and a 4 would have made MUCH
better television can't save us from the system we have in place and the game we will be forced to watch.
But I don't think Standord, OK St, Houston, Southern Miss, Boise St..none of em could beat LSU or Bama.
But it'd be nice to give them the shot I think they deserve. And WTF happened with Boise St???
Las Vegas Bowl???? weak.
Brad,

I went to the BCS thread to play....we can continue over there, including my responding to this post. It is apparent that since I don't have the group think, my thoughts are not welcome here.... (If I could put into words how much amusement that brings me, it would lighten all your hearts)
