    If you say so, but you won't see Trent Richardson or Tyrann Mathieu hoisting and kissing the AP trophy after the game Monday night.

    That's a real nice theory about splitting the title up between Alabama and Oklahoma State, but what did Oklahoma State do Monday night to show that it deserves that kind of love? Couldn't play defense and only won because of a missed 35-yard field goal. Not exactly the dominant performance that was thought to be required to jump them ahead. (Stanford is a good to very good team, but far from great and definitely a notch or two below what Alabama would achieve if it beat LSU.)

    I know people want BCS chaos every year. But the case for Oklahoma State had flaws during the selection process, and the case for Oklahoma State as #1 after the bowls would just be asinine.

    I agree. I thought Ok. St. was going to win big because they were so motivated by getting snubbed for the national title game, but they didn't do anything in that game to prove they deserve to be national champions.

    If they won by 14 points and Alabama beats LSU, then you could talk about it, but winning that game because the kicker missed a chip shot is no argument for being champions.

    This is an embarrassment. For the most part, this bowl season has been a let down, and adding to it is that all I have left is LSU-Alabama, and it wasn't that entertaining to watch the first time around.

    If they score the TD and go for 2, they can be on pace for triple digits.

    I don't think the officials got that fumble call right, but I'm not a fan of either of these schools ...

    Maybe it won't be so hard for Pitt to win the ACC afterall. God, what a bed shitting.
