It seems stupid that the inferior team gets in because they happened to be lucky enough to draw the team they tied with at home that year. Georgia-LSU would have likely been the game of the year.

Those things were not ORBS!
they were posing as heavenly bodies...

What I dont get, if you look at the photo this referred to, the girl is very cute imo.
And she goes and does that to herself...

I guess she and Ms. South Carolina share the same outlook on foreign policy.

It seems stupid that they have Conference Championships at all. Or that only some conferences have them. A playoff would eliminate these obvious money grabs and would benefit the NCAA as a whole instead of just a few big conferences. I want someone to tell me again why they think that that this system works when the next 2 BCS games in primetime are close to unwatchable because there is nothing at stake, especially after the first 2 BCS games were wipeouts. You will also have a hard time convincing most that USC or Georgia aren't at least as good or better than the 2 teams playing in the 'National Championship' game.

She is as cute as a little white bunny
and she decided to buy two Hindenbergs?

I dont think Georgia can be judged fairly
based on that game against Hawaii. I take the USC
butt-kicking much more seriously as I would an
Oklahoma butt-kicking of West Virginia.

Overall, it looks like the Big 10 has come out smelling the worst.
Although I think Michigan put out a serious game.
That was the most impressive from just pure effort.
I have not seen a Michigan team play like that hard for a while.

The SEC... They were who we thought they were. -d.green

I am ashamed that I picked Hawaii, but at least I'm above .500 and don't have to perform disembowelment on myself. ( I'm not sure I even know what it means)

I still have a hard time buying the vast superiority of the SEC based upon KY holding off FSU minus 1/2 their team, Miss St beating Central Fl in possibly the worst bowl of the century, Tennessee holding on against Wisconsin, Auburn beating Clemson in OT, GA overwhelming Hawaii, FL getting thoroughly outplayed by Michigan and Arkansas getting thrashed by Mizzou, and Alabama getting by a Colorado team with a losing record. Outside of Georgia there wasn't one impressive performance by an SEC team and FL played poorly and Arkansas was embarassing. The Pac 10 has had a far more impressive bowl showing with Oregon St and Cal winning, Oregon and USC blowing top 20 teams out, UCLA just missing, and Az St the only team that was overmatched and they still scored 34 unlike Arkansas.

OSU actually covers wide receivers which seemed to be a foreign concept for Florida yesterday

Is Bigs the official winner or are they blinking his number?
Anyway great Job. Danzig, you were a very game second and coming late! Congratulations to both of you!

I will attempt to remove my innards
without any help. I am ashamed and
not worthy of living with any functioning
organs inside my torso.

Doing much better in the NFL, 1-3...
listed as confused, but I would describe
my performance as that of a beet-minded
welp.
Life in the fast lane can be overwhelming.
