When it was go time for OSU with 2 weeks left in the season and a shoe-in for the BCS championship game, what did they do? They lose to Iowa State, a six loss team. They laid an egg in crunch time.



bcs computer rankings still held OSU over the Tide at the end of the season, it was the polls that pushed the Tide into the national championship game.

no sports should have the chance to play in the championship game based on popular vote.



Iowa State.



the team was dealing with tragedy at game time.

LOL I like you. I'm all for injecting a tragedy index into the BCS model, which might get us closer to a playoff system.

Alabama humbles LSU with a resounding 21-0 win


Pretty much says it all right there...I don't know what all the hype was, but I'm glad I didn't have any bets going for an LSU win or a spread. What a disappointment for a BCS title game - it's as if LSU didn't even try.



It really makes me wonder if there was some sort of SEC "Let Bama win or else" thing going on. LSU really didn't look like they were even trying. I mean, they ran maybe 5 different plays total?

And lots of sloppy D, which I hadn't seen in ANY of their games this season.

You arent factoring in the only reason that Alabama got put into the championship game either. Money, and the SEC coaches that wanted more of it. If the SEC coaches hadnt voted OSU 3rd and 4th in the rankings for monitary purposes Alabama wouldnt have even been in the game. Its all a farce.

I think Bama showed last night they deserved to be in the game. They beat the snot out of the team that was a unanimous #1.

at least the Tide won the game right and they took LSU out behind the woodshed and laid the lumber to them.



Are you trying to say a defense won this championship?

if lsu had a offense to mention then yes, but the Tide took a middle of the road offense at best and made them look down right sorry.
