    so is it safe to assume that since we barely beat bama that those who think okie state is better than bama actually think okie state is better than us?

    yeah probably not.


    Im sure it just means it would take double or triple overtime to beat them.

    You know the answer. It's all about not wanting to play Bama again.

    As is Oklahoma State, but that line only works when Les Miles uses it.

    I just don't see who else to put as #2 since OSU has a bad loss and Stanford has no quality wins.

    You put OSU (assuming they beat OU), because you are supposed to judge the entire body of work, not just one game. If OSU wins Saturday, they will have beaten four teams that were ranked when OSU played them, and five that will be ranked at the end of the year. That's more impressive than Alabama, which is 4-1 against ranked teams when they played, and 2-1 against teams that are ranked at the end.
