That game was the sloppiest 4 quarters of football I've seen in a long time.

But, it is nice to have 2 championships in 3 years here in Title Town.


I wonder how many more times an SEC team has to win it all before the other conferences will quite claiming they are just as good if not better.

In the last three years...
Florida over Ohio State
LSU over Ohio State
Florida over Oklahoma

His facial expression never changes, He always just looks like a little kid and a little confused.

Now, Big XII teams average 45 points per game in the regular season. They turn around and average only 24 points in bowl games. Big XII defenses suck, haha to everyone who said they don't.
Oklahoma played a great game with only a few mistakes.
The speed of Florida and the pressure on Bradford is what won the game, that and the fact that Oklahoma abandoned the running game and then tried to go back to it later.
All in all, was a great game, a good slugfest that was worth of being a title game IMO. The best one for sure since Miami/OSU when Miami got raped on a bad call. I still think Texas had a good argument for their right to be there, though, and they could have done just as good if not better than Oklahoma did.

I am not a huge fan of the SEC, but at least the title is in the right state. Go Hurricanes!

Stoops = horrible coach. 2 times in the red zone in the first half and no points from them... Also you have to question his 3rd down playcalls, short routes expecting the reciever to gain the rest of the yards. Didn't seem like they made any halftime adjustments either. I think Oklahoma had the better recipe for success, Stoops just didn't use it right (again.)

Utah should be national champs. Undefeated, plus they beat the crap out of 'Bama in the Sugar bowl when Florida didn't in the SEC Championship.

True, and the argument could be made that Texas should have been in the Big 12 championship, and went on to beat Florida....

College football needs an overhaul. All the BCS is good for is making coaches run up the scores and pad stats to improve their spot in the polls. Polls mean nothing, yet they have a huge part in what a team does in the postseason. It's ridiculous.
