BOL Round Table

Another scenario. Ou beats ok state and Georgia beats Lsu. Well now we have bama vs ou in NC game. Which was supposed to be the plan from the beginning. Too much football left to worry about it. Bama just needs to go out and control what they can control. That is what happens when you lose, you take away the control and leave all of us guessing. RTR

to your point this game will be 3 weeks in the rear view mirror by the time Oklahoma plays Oklahoma State.

Its the top 2 teams and then they have to be within 5 BCS to get the head-to-head. Not the top 3. So, it will all depend on whether Arky moves ahead of LSU. Beating them at home you would think but I can't guarantee they will.

Bama lost by 3 in OT to #1. They got spanked at home by an unranked that has went on to be routed in every game since. The voters have no justification to put OU ahead of Bama.

I'm so tired of this having to be explained to people. Have people been living under rocks since last Saturday. It has been covered by every major sports show and shown on pretty much every broadcast yesterday that included an SEC team. Not to mention that it is explained in about every other thread on this board. Sorry, its just the way people post with sarcasm saying "you know these things have to happen for us to go" when really they have no clue what the rules are. /rant

Just to be clear, I'm not saying OU will jump us TODAY. But, if they beat OSU, there is a chance............unless we find our offense and totally dominate these last two games.

Simple as this. We went to overtime with LSU. They were losing by double digits at home to Texas Tech. If OU wins we go.

Get the hell off your high horse, dude. We know the rules. Arkansas could well be the #6 team in the nation later tonight. If they beat LSU, they will probably jump LSU, which puts us in the SECCG. I'm really tired of having to explain this to people like YOU.

you are an idiot. Look at my post and who I quoted. The guy I quoted thinks that the only way we go to the SECC game is if LSU loses twice. Reading comprehension is hard.

OU's loss to Texas Tech is equal to that of USC's loss to Stanford a few years back before Stanford got good and when Harbaugh was a rookie coach. As bad as Tubberville's team is doing, noone will take OU seriously for losing to them at home. We just need Arkansas to play a damn good game against LSU because that Arkansas win, along with beating Penn State, is what we're holding onto.

This exactly. Everyone is so hung up on who lost to who, but that likely won't be the deciding factor.

In our favor:
1. Our loss was better

In their favor:
1. Win in the final week on the road against the number 2 team in the nation. Without their best receiver - in a rivalry game - while Alabama doesn't even play.
2. The computers love the Big 12.
3. Many people do not want a rematch.
4. Voters love OU (don't forget they were preseason #1).

It looks to me like they have way more in their favor than we do. Also, most of their advantages will be fresh in the minds of voters at the end of the year, while our "better loss" will be a month old, and their "worse loss" will be almost two months old. Many of you are way to confident that we'd get in.

It is between the top two teams that are within five spots of each other. If all 3 teams are within five spots of each other it makes no difference. The third rated team would be excluded from the argument and it would come down to the head to head between the top two.
