Good call. Almost seemed like Oregon wanted to lose tonight with the way they played and were coached. another choke by Oregon.

People dont like the system, but every game matters. So, who gets in or knocked out next week??
And then the conference games.....

Gotta love that college ball

I still think USC beats Notre Dame which would really make a mess of things.

But obviously, they don't all matter. LSU beating Alabama didn't matter one iota last year. Most likely, neither will A&M beating Alabama. What matters is Alabama just happened to lose first, so for some reason that gets rewarded.

In regard to final standings, bowl and conference games, they all matter. What happens next week matters too. The iron bowl, dame vs usc....who plays georgia in atlanta in the sec. Probably bama, but its not set in stone yet.

Sometimes they do, sometimes they don't. Saying "they all count" is a bunch of BS perpetuated by those in favor of bowls, and now the BCS. You now have Notre Dame and a bunch of teams with one loss, like 10 of them. Who plays will be decided mostly by people that don't even watch the games.

The 4 team playoff will help, but it won't be some cure all either.
