Not gonna lie I'd love to see 1. Clemson vs 4. Bama in NOLA and 2/3 OU/UGA in Pasadena. We'd get a rematch of Bama-Clemson (which have been really good games) but for a semifinal this time.

Presumably this is because OU still gives a full ride to any National Merit Scholar who applies. Weird: it's almost like money talks.

It's basically a meme at this point thanks to Dan Boren.

I’m going to guess Oklahoma instead of UGA as much as it pains me to think about.

BCS had a lot of poll inertia. Clemson and Oklahoma would have benefitted heavily by losing early (and close). UGA's late loss would have dropped them below both with no shot to jump ahead. And Auburn never would have been ranked 2.

Three words:

Big Game Bob.

Also, credit to OU, they transitioned pretty well, though you can argue that it was on Stoops' recruiting.

Our recruiting uptick the last couple years was absolutely not fueled by Stoops, and I love Bob as much as anyone. A few years back our recruiting had slipped big time and a large part of that was Stoops getting lazy and also not holding his assistants accountable. Credit to Bob for cleaning house for the most part and hiring guys that would go out and be stellar recruiters, though.

Under Bob Stoops I would unfortunately 100% agree, but I'm hopeful that Lincoln Riley handles this situation better.

Bullshit. He absolutely would have been suspended indefinitely, and I expect that is what will happen now.

Yeah well, I think he gets to blame Charlie a bit this year. Next year, not so much. And not a problem if he has less losses!

Anyway, Texas has 2 modes, dickhead and self loathing. Nice guy charlie strong texas was never really an option, so out with that

I don't think Mack was ever really a dick. Certainly not like Herman is.

Gonna miss watching Baker Mayfield play college football a whole lot.

Yup. Baker has easily risen up to be my favorite Sooner of all time.

I’m not as sad about this loss as I thought I would be. It was still a drat good game and I’m really excited to see what Riley can accomplish in his career. Having Kyler Murray at QB next year adds a whole new dime soon to the offense.

That said I hope it’s the last we’ve seen of Mike Stoops.

I think the trend to look at in the ratings is that the game does much better when there’s teams from different geographical areas in it. When it’s an all-southern affair, whether that’s just SEC or ACC/SEC, the ratings dip.
