I know this is not a logical way to look at matchups but when its all you got... Missouri drilled the team that drilled Ohio State.

Ohio State may have unwittingly found a way to get to the BCS championship. Dont play any games at the end of the season. Boy it will be great to see Ohio State play in the BCS championship after sitting on the shelf for about two months.

The flippin bowls have to turn into a playoff system. This waiting around watching all these crap bowls is ridiculous. We have no idea what type of teams we will see. Only two months to prepare. Absurd.

Fortunately we do have some college playoffs.

Unfortunately we don't get to see much of the 1-AA playoffs which are actually quite fun. Just yesterday you had the 2nd rated team (McNeese State) getting drilled at home by Eastern Washington and the 3rd rated team (Montana) losing at home by 1 point to a team (Wofford) that did what Meat Chicken couldn't do...(beat App State.). But all it did was prove that high rankings in 1-AA mean about as much as they do in 1-A...nothing. Which is why it is generally a good thing to actually play games to decide a champion.

Ohio State will be playing West Virginia or USC either in the National Championship game or Rose Bowl. They have zero shot of playing Kansas or Missouri unless pigs sprout wings and Pitt beats West Virginia in Morgantown. That will certainly not happen.
