Re: Re: Re: Re: Eat It Oklahoma!!!!
Your argument holds no water. The reason is because even though LSU played a "weaker" non-conference schedule, they played (and beat) more top-25 teams than did USC. USC beat only one top 25 team (Washington State) and lost to an unranked Cal (LSU lost to a ranked Florida).
And your talk about USC in, LSU out is dumb. I agree that USC should have been there (so LSU's defense could turn Leinart into an average QB), but the only team that should have been out is OU. LSU deserved to be in that game as much or more than any other team.
Call me back when the "slack-10" is as powerful as the SEC.

I notice that none of the top three teams had the cajones to schedule Kentucky :lookaroun :lookaroun
Bottom line is that the only way to truly fix the problem is to go to a play-off system, utilizing the Bowls to decide a National Champion. I'd say to go with the top 8 teams in the country.

That's why there is such a thing as strength of schedule. Had USC, OU, or LSU scheduled UK, then Michigan at #4 would have been playing for the NC. :lol:
As to a playoff in college football, I'm all for it, but it looks as though we won't see it for a very long time. Plus, what about team #9 that says they got ripped just as USC said this year.

Oh, that's right. This isn't a basketbal thread:lol:
As for the #9 team pitching a fit, I think they would have a little less ground to stand on as compared to a #3 team with the siruation we had this year. As it stands with hoops, you still get those schools that complain when they don't make the field of 64. You will always have it. My suggestion is to go with 8 teams.
I do recall the year before where it took a freak play by LSU to beat the Wildcats in Lexington. I think ESPN put it as their play of the year. Oh well, I hope J-Load gets drafted. It's about time we had a 300 pound quarterback in the NFL:snore:

The coach, Guy Morris, left UK for a team in the big 12. Good call on the Baseball angle. And I suppose you are right, Big Blue applies to Michigan when talking football but can mean only one team when talking College Hoops...UK Wildcats.
I think that was two years in a row that LSU pulled one out of its against the Football Cats. Oh well, for the heady days of Bear Bryant and UK...

Oh well...at least we finally rotated UK off the football schedule. It always seemed that no matter how much talent LSU had we always seemed to have Kentucky right there with us at the end of the games. I do kinda wish we could have laid the wood to them this year. Our defense could have scared a few pounds off of the "hefty lefty". :lol:

Whoo!! Morris took a giant step forward in moving from Kentucky to Baylor.
What a football mecca....

Francione out to be successful at A & M if he stays long enough. Great coach, but he didn't do right in how he left Alabama.
As for Morriss, I still don't know why he made the move he did. Baylor is going nowhere fast. I don't even know how they are still a member of the Big 12.

Yeah I know. I get a lot of "stuff" from the Univ of Tenn fans around here. I am a Michigan fan but the SEC really does well in bowl games! I wouldn't dislike the SEC so much if UTenn wasn't in it. (I HATE ORANGE!!)
BTW - Congrats on the championship. You guys deserve it.
