Not that great, the Big Ten has ten bowl eligible teams.... I'm not saying the Big Ten is as tough a conference as the SEC, but if we're going to base our opinions solely on the number of bowl eligible teams, we should make sure we have more than ALL the other conferences.
Honestly, what are the odds of a Duck, beating a Tiger?? There much better againts a Cajun, and those odds are about 80 to 1, depending on the steel shot size.
Didn't Cal destroy Tennessee? Everyone plays with injuries. Seems like a terrible year for everyone. Oregon is playing with freshmen because of them. Our two top WRs are gone, starting LBs, and #2 RB, who played a lot, and close to Stewart in ability. I really don't get into the which conference is best argument often. It usually doesn't matter. The SEC from top to bottom has been better year after year. This year I believe the PAC-10 is close and 2nd best. But we are talking about teams for the NC. I rank LSU#1, UO #2, and OU#3. Since all lost a game they shouldn't have, I don't think there is room for complaint if someone jumps somebody. UO had one horrendous 4th qtr against Cal. Dixon has 3 int, all year, 2 were in that 4th qtr. Also 2 fumbles. We were literally 6" from winning anyway. I saw the OU and LSU losses. UO and OU win those games and they are 1-2 today. If OSU had remained unbeaten and Kansas, LSU would have been left out. LSU would still be #1 and ducks #2, but neither would be in NC game.
My point was that neither UO Or OU should complain if they get passed over. If they had taken care of business on the field, they could both be in. But believe me fans of either will gripe, if they get left out, as would LSU. But, LSU woukd have to lose to get left out.
Unfortunatly, I think Kansa may jump y'all if they win out. I'm not convince they can win out, but thanks to Michigan falling (again) y'all SOS took a hit, and maybe enough for Kansas to slip on by.
<--- Has read of several posters here wanting Oregan to make it to the National Championship Game. Something about Tickets Reserved through Oregan being cheap (or at least they were cheap until they were all reserved).
