BTW, Hitachi, Texas ain't the only team you like with a big game.
Your Ducks are 8-3 and can play spoiler to Oregon State's Rose Bowl Dreams in the civil War (Though I like you a lot, I want Oregon State to win- I would be SO HAPPY if someone besides USC represents the Left Coast in Pasadena).
Oh, and over/under- 48 points for Texas against the Aggies?

1. Oregon State making the Rose Bowl would be sweet justice for fans like myself who tire of seeing USC in Pasadena year after year- i want to see something DIFFERENT
I'll take USC and the lovely Song Girls.
2. Bob Stoops and the Sooners are like the Houston Cougars; no-class, run-up-the-score, and a QB that's only good because of the players he surrounds himself with
Wow sour grapes. I could have written the exact same thing about a certain team from Lubbock.
3. Texas Tech will likely finish with one-loss and a four-loss ACC team plays in the Orange Bowl- WHERE IS THE JUSTICE?!
That does sort of suck.
4. Cincinnati may be the most remarkable Cinderella story this year in college football
It would only be remarkable if anyone cared.
5. For all the mocking laughter and derision, the "Crapple Cup" was actually a good game
What game were you watching? That game lived up, or should I say down to its billing. Two awful teams who were incapable of doing much of anything. If they had NFL OT rules this one would have ended in a tie like the Eagles and Bengals did.
6. Cal Poly-Wisconsin and Oregon State/Arizona disproved the theory that kicking extra points is the easiest thing in the world
Maybe they should have grabbed a kid from the student body like TT did.
7. I hope Virginia Tech doesn't win the ACC title- of the 4 teams that have a shot, they would probably be the worst representative- little offense (They won 14-3 today) and erratic quarterback play.
What's sad is that one of those TD's was a pick 6.
10. Nebraska/Colorado or LSU/Arkansas- Which of these day-after-Thanksgiving games should I be more interested in?
Neither. Plenty of good games on Sat.

Better root for the Ducks then. Besides, if the Beavers go to Pasadena, the Song Girls will likely still make a BCS game.
You actually said something semi-positive about the Red Raiders!
At least Washington State MADE their clutch kicks, unlike Notre Dame
Cougars kicked a game-tying field goal, OT field goal, and a winning field goal.
Irish, OTOH- three missed field goals!
So far, the whinny "don't run it up" should be soccer fan rankings are.
1. Alabama fan
2. Texas Tech fan
3. LSU fan
4. Miami fan

+1. I am glad we are still being overlooked, even though we are undefeated and ranked number one. Keeps them hungry, and that is dangerous for whichever team we play.
No, bama doesnt have the most overall talent, not by a long shot (even though they are getting there). They simply play solid, well coached football in most phases of the game.
Wait a minute,
Wasn't you the one that posted this type of thing last week or a few weeks ago and had the same list with Ohio State making a bsc game, now with more wins, they don't ???
I'm trying to remember, because I cannot find it to re post,,so if I'm wrong, I'm sorry, but someone had them making it and I remember the format you used ....
Yes, I have had Ohio State in and out of the BCS. It's boils down to Oregon State, if they lose to Oregon next week USC goes to the Rose Bowl and Ohio State goes likely to the Fiesta. If Oregon State wins they are the Pac-10 Champ and they go to the Rose Bowl and USC will get a BCS at-large bid.
Remember, this list is if the season ended today...we still have two weeks of game that can, and likley will, change things.
That is all.
About what I expected in Norman last night.
Tech has had a top notch season though,last night's beating aside.
NC down to 4 teams(Alabama,Florida,Oklahoma,Texas) USC waiting in the wings if anyone stubs their toes.
Still would prefer the abolition of the bowl system and a 8 team playoff. Nowhere in sight, Sadly.
I will say this current system makes for interesting discussion though.
Maybe the BCS Championship Game will be good this season.

Hart, no one's "whining" about running up scores. It's simply classless, and transparent. But that's ok, I know you think Florida's unbeatable because they scored 70 against...drumroll, please.. THE CITADEL!! And I can't recall a single time anyone's been able to run up the score against my team, so it's nothing personal with me. In fact, aren't we undefeated....? And you're right, the other 40 or so other players who dress for games but don't get to play wouldn't really like to get in the game when it's a huge lead in the 2nd half...
Oh no I CAN'T stand the DUCKS!! I like Oregon STATE!! I would love to see the BEAVER'S in the ROSE BOWL!! No there were only two PAC-2 Schools i was thinking about going to before i picked TEXAS!! USC and OREGON STATE!!:up
I would say under. The reason is the A&M, Texas game is still a rivalry i say Texas 45 and A&M 3!
Well, I care along with 35,000 others attending the game last night (that's all Nippert Stadium will hold). I am a UC alumnus and long time season ticket holder. I was at the game last night against Pittsburgh and haven't seen the place rockin' like that before. Brian Kelly has done some kind of job with four QB's playing this year because of all the injuries. Hopefully he will stick around longer than two seasons, but unlikely given past history at UC. Anyways, might as well enjoy it while we can.

Here are the latest rankings.
I swear to god, the AP Voters are so Gator-biased. They beat a nobody; at least Oklahoma beat an actual team.
As much as I hate the Sooners, they should be #2- there's a difference in beating Texas Tech and the Citadel.

Maybe OU is #2 in the coaches' poll because Mike Leach voted for them.
With a 3-way tie in the Big-12 South, all you can do is vote for the team that you think is the better team NOW. If this OU team faced Texas next week, who would you honestly pick to win?
But that's putting the cart before the horse. Tech could still back into the Big-12 Championship game if OU loses to OSU in Stillwater next week.
Hitachi,
how weird do you think it is for the Longhorns to play A&M on Thanksgiving night? They have played on the Friday after Turkey Day for over a decade.
