hope they enjoy it, because after next Saturday, it comes to an end. OU is too powerful, and MU blew their wad against KU...they are spent emotionally.

man KU isn't even out of the picture yet...we could still theoretically get a shot at the title game.

If OU beats MU, then OU is 11-2, and MU would be 11-2.

Even though OU would be Big 12 Champion, KU would still have the better record at 11-1.

MU #1
WV #2
OSU #3
Georgia #4
Kansas #5

If Mu loses, then they will drop out of the top 5 because they would lose to #9 Oklahoma.

So with an MU and WV loss, OSU would move to #1, Georgia #2, and KU #3, VT #4, LSU #5

now if you remember in 2003, when OU lost to K-State in the Big 12 Championship Game, OU was ranked #1 before that game (#3 afterwards) .and they still ended up playing LSU for the title....but that was OU's only loss during the regular season, that wouldn't happen with MU as they would have lost 2 games, twice to the same team in one season.

So if the computers somehow boosted KU (11-1) over Georgia (10-2), then KU would play Ohio State for the National Championship...how freakin bizarre would that be?

I know it's a long shot and not probable, but IT IS POSSIBLE!!!!!!!!

or 2nd scenario.....

should MU and WVU lose, and Georgia plays Ohio State for the NC Title game, and Kansas beats their BCS Bowl game opponent by a wide margin, then KU could possibly still win a share of the national championship game, if the AP Voters vote that way.

SO KU Fans we're not out of it yet!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

We need a lot of help!!!, but the way this jacked up wacky season is going, nothing would surprise me!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I just became the biggest OU and Pittsburgh Fans in the world!!

GO OU and Go Pittsburgh!!!!!!!!!!!!

they blew their wad last night...OU's gonna smoke em! Texas and Oklahoma is big time OU country...there will be way more Sooners fan than Tiger fans there, and MU has no experience in Championship games...OU does, and it will show next week.

MU's gonna lose this game!

i dunno if that will happen, but that would be a good game, and I'd like to see how we do against OU.

i didn't realize Reesing played on a severely sprained ankle during that MU/KU game...not making excuses, but i wonder how differently that game might have been if everyone had been completely healthy.

Doesn't matter. We won, they lost. And since everyone else decided to lose also, I think we should be in the National Championship since we just OBLITERATED the number one team! Go ahead, let me hear arguments! Tell me who can beat us with the way we're playing right now! BOOMER-FREAKIN'-SOONER!

Let the games begin!!!!!!!

BTW, to all you KU and MO fans, take it from someone who has been on top many times (ND Alum), EVEN THOUGH WE SUCK NOW:

1 - Take what you can get

2 - Be classy. That is what is supposed to separate college football from the pros.

3 - Don't be a one-hit-wonder. And to do that, you need to win games and win big over and over and over again. Many teams got to ride in the #1 spotlight this year because there was nearly a different team there every dam week.

4 - It is all about timing! Be careful what justification you use to say you whould be #1, because if you ask me, I would put Hawaii there. Why? Why the hell not? After all, I believe they have the best record and while they play hardley anyone good, all the good teams are loosing anyway.

5 - And, enjoy it while you can. Because, Miami, Nebraska, Notre Dame, Michigan, FSU, USC, etc.... will all be back on top sooner or later.....then again, maybe not.

6 - You need to get harder schools on your schedule besides just conference games.

BTW, I would like to thank both MO and KU for choking and wasting a chance for a no-name program to finally get to play to be #1 (sorry, just telling the truth). Fact is, KU screwed-up last week by getting destroyed by MO, and then MO forget to show-up last night. They were good enough to win but seemed to accept justing getting to #1 for a week. Looks like we will see OSU now back for a chance to play and prolly Georgia.

I actually agree with you Nofire...if not KU, then definitely OU.

OU is probably the 2nd best team in the nation right now. as for #2, I'm undecided.

LSU is definitely not. OSU is definitely not. Georgia Maybe, VT maybe.

I think it should either be

VT vs. OU

or

GA vs OU.

How can you say that? LSU and Georgia are in the same conference, both have the same # of losses, but LSU won the conference championship that GA didnt even get to.

As far as Va Tech, thats about as dumb and assanine as your argument that Kansas is somehow better than Missouri. LSU and Va Tech both are 11-2 but LSU plays in a tougher conference and oh yeah beat Va Tech by 41 points.

There is no question that LSU will get in, but imo Oklahoma should.

But as far as saying Ohio State doenst deserve it, how do you figure? Ranked #3, both 1 and 2 lost. They are 11-1 and won their conference outright. They beat 3 top 30 teams and their lone loss was to #13 Illinois. Kansas beat no one and lost to the only good team they played.

You need to take the blinders off. OSU will be in the big game wait and see. That is what happens when you are #3 and #1 and 2 looses. The only question is who OSU will be playing. I would be shocked if OSU does not play, then again, there is no telling.

That's true about OSU. I just hope we made enough of a case to play against them, b/c I think we'd kill them about like MIZZOU.

Looks like we get to destroy WV in the Fiesta Bowl. Steve Slaton, Pat White, meet Austin English and Curtis Lofton.

i knew it would be LSU vs OSU because the damn coaches and voters are biased...they're afraid to what's right, instead doing what's popular.

College Football is a joke without a playoff system.

The only way to do it is to have the top 8 teams conduct a play-off.

Be careful what you wish for though. You are pissed this season, but might be able to take advantage of it next year. I like it the way it is. This way every game is a play-off game. If you end up with a tournament, then you will have teams playing to just make the play-off forcing them to bench solid players afraid they will get hurt. Besides, loosers will always bitch no matter what you do.

They arent biased, you are just out of your mind and think Kansas is as good as the big boys. They havent proved anything to deserve a title shot. They are lucky to even get a BCS birth.

But here are your games.


Title Game - #1 Ohio State vs #2 LSU
Rose Bowl - USC vs Illinois
Sugar Bowl - Georgia vs Hawaii
Orange Bowl - Virginia Tech vs Kansas
Fiesta Bowl - West Virginia vs Oklahoma.

I actually really like those match-ups. I think USC will beat IL, but this gives IL a chance to really make a statement to see if they are real. USC will be the favorite, but I will cheer for IL.

Ga and HI.....should be a great game. Again, this give HI a chance to make a statement. These guys will be looking for blood where GA might loosk past them a little.

VT and KU.....seems pretty even to me.

WV and Oak, another good match.

As far as OSU and LSU, #1 and #2.....take it for what it is.

Now quite bitching everyone......some of your guys are pissed, but what the hell are you gonna say when your team looses in a game that you feel you should not be in?

I'm not discounting Illinois at all because I think they are a good team, however I'm not happy with the BCS picking them to play us. I really wanted a crack at an SEC team because they talk so much crap.

Ohio st is probably going to get destroyed....again.
