Sucks to be Texas

Postby Pony Soup » Sun Nov 30, 2008 6:22 pm

I think Texas should be most upset that the Big 12 - for whatever reason (and I assume Texas, OU, Tech all agreed to this) - uses the BCS as the 5th tie-breaker. SEC and ACC both use it, but revert to Head to Head between the top two ranked teams if they are within 5 spots in the BCS. The problem I see with it is that the BCS is meant to narrow it down to a championship game between two teams, not determine a divisional winner. The voters/Computers are not picking between the two, but ranking teams from all over the country - injecting unrelated biases into a divisional tie-breaker.

As it stands, OU wins the Big 12 South. Sucks to be Texas today.
It tastes better when served from a Bowl (game)!
