Golf Dude Your out of your freakin mind. USC was voted #1 because of the West Coast and East Coast bias for Mich and USC thats it they saw what was going to happen and they did this on purpose so that USC and Mich and the Rose Bowl could take center stage its a control thing with these AP voters they think they are the only ones that can pick and I stress pick the National Champion. I dont care who you are but if you watched all those games LSU was by far the best all around team.
Thats a bunch of crap. Yes, the BCS sucks and somebody was going to get screwed no matter what. I'm glad it worked out that way because the team that got screwed is in the biggest media market and there are more people there to howl about the BCS being unfair in Southern California than there are in Baton Rouge or Norman, OK and maybe something will be done about it. USC is not as good as everybody thinks they are. They are going to lose to a very good Michigan team in the Rose Bowl just like they would have lost to either LSU or Oklahoma in the Sugar. The two best teams are in the Sugar Bowl despite the K State blowout. The third best team is probably Michigan or even Georgia. I wouldn't rank USC any higher than 5th. My reasoning for that is that I would bet on LSU, OU, Michigan or Georgia over USC if they were playing. I might even bet on Ohio State if they were playing USC but that would be a toss up and I probably wouldn't bet it.
I agree with you and I think and hope your right about Michigan. I don't want to have to share a trophy with a lesser pac 10 team
Golf Dude, come on back in out of the rain it's soaking your brain. Screw what the AP says, the BCS may suck but it IS the what determines the NC. Flawed as it may be, the ONLY way USC can claim a NC is a partial one at best and when they TWEAK the BCS to prevent this in the future it will still be in the record books that LSu was the RECOGNIZED BCS champs. They aren't going to throw out the BCS, they may tweak it some, but not throw it out. THE BCS throphy is what brings the recognition SCREW a bunch of ignorant SPORTS writers. MY dog can pick teams as well as they can. USC doesn't deserve SQUAT. They didnt win their Conf championship game BECAUSE they dont have one. AT LEAST OU played in one. USC would have to BLOW out Michigan to get this and we would have to lose. Neither is going to happen. LSU will get the AP also even with a USC win BECAuse they CANT Blow out Michigan. IF they win it'll be by a squeak and THAt is accounted for in the human polls. EVEN sports writers aren't that stupid. IF OU doesn't deserve to play in the NC then USC sure doesn't.
Trust me the sports writers WANT OU to be the NC. They're hoping they will redeem themselves in the Sugar. They did this for a reason, they think Michigan will dispose of USC, due to the fact that USC hasn't played anyone. This is a TOKEN #1 rating. they also think the lose to K state by OU was a fluke and will heavily favor OU in the sugar. This would solve all their lil problems. They have it half right, Michigan should dismantle USC for what it is, a west coast Ohio State.
Re: Trev is an idiot Wrong, LSU and USC are the two best teams. No way a team that gets hacked up into pieces in their CCG is the best team in the country. If you believe that, then I believe that UGA is also one of the two top teams in the country.
I have seen USC fans comment on this. I think they are ready to acknowledge sharing a title with USC in the match that never was. I don't think they would recognize an OU championship. I'll go on record right now and say that if we lose to OU, I hope USC beats UM.
I hate that punk, all I know is if you guys see him in Nawlin's for the big game you better heckle his ass until he snaps and does something stupid. Rag on him so bad he snaps and hits you, then the angry mob of crazed Tiger fans can pummel him into the ground. Or just bait him into hitting you and then sue him for all he's worth. Remind him where he ranks on the All-Time NFL Draft Bust List, http://www.msnbc.com/news/903793.asp http://espn.go.com/melkiper/s/2001/0406/1168617.html
Every coach and team in the country knows the BCS rules BEFORE the season starts. You either live by 'em or die by 'em. USC is ranked #3 in the BCS poll, so tough..... Just because you're popular doesn't mean you deserve a shot (think Notre Dame) and to whine afterward is truely pathetic. If "we" all agreed to the rules (as much as I hate the BCS too) then you gotta play by 'em.
Re: Golf Dude I never said LSU was not the best all around team.....Where did that come from??? As far as your conspiracy theories, about why USC is #1 in the AP, they may be correct. But if USC wins and we win, we share the title. And they get the better half. I stand by my origianl post.....simple statements of fact.....ending in these words: We should be playing USC.........and everyone knows it. The BCS has screwed us............ Winning the Sugar will mean nothing unless Michigan wins.
