1- Iowa St is ranked in the top 30 with a SOS of 8 in most polls
2- are you looking at that one game? or what a team did all year long..
Yes, ISU lost was bad, but taht was also on short week and 1 day after plane crash killing OSU womens bball coaches..
if you look at just losses, Bama deserves to go.. if you're looking at overall resume, hard to dispute Okie State has a much better overall resume
How about you open your eyes and look at the teams. Iowa State is awful, they lost by over 20 to a very bad Texas team, by almost 40 to a dog sh*t Mizzu team, they lost by over 20 to Baylor, Oklahoma and A&M. They almost lost to f'n UConn, Northern Iowa and Kansas. Anyone who tries to justify that lose is a moron.
OSU has 2 wins against current top 25 teams, a Baylor team who couldn't contain a powderpuffs offense and a close win over K State, whose best win is also over Baylor and has a 40 point loss at home to the only big boy they played, OU.
If LSU and their secondary played OSU they would win by 20+ easily. Take a look at the actual teams, the talent difference between LSU/Bama and OSU is a joke.
You want the two best teams to play for the title? It is Bama and LSU and it is not even close.

if you're going by top 25 in the BCS: Okie State has beaten (or will beat in OUs case)
K State Baylor Texas Oklahoma Missouri
that's 5 conference wins over bcs top 25 teams.. Bama has 1.. Arkansas who's best win is a 4 pt neutral field win over 6-6 A&M.. the 7th best team in the B12..

Maybe in your eyes, but not in the eyes of hundreds of thousands of Bama fans, coaches, and players.
so you want to shoot at me because i dont think it solves anything because LSU went into your house, and beat you at your own game?
sensible, but a fyi, hundreds of thousands alabama fans are a lot less than millions of college football fans across the country who either dont want to see this or dont think if bama wins they are clearly the best team. like i said, go to lsu and win and beat them in superdome...i will give you your due.

another reason why a playoff would be better than this bcs.
the long layoffs would be omitted. how can you play games 30-50 days later. its like two different seasons. its insane actually. all year you play one week apart unless a bye and now you wait almost 50 days to play again. its pure stupidity.
imagine any other sport waiting that long between last game to championship.
packers steelers superbowl after 45 days of them playing
uconn vs butler
its another joke of the system.
you can still have all the other bowls while having a 8 team playoff. the other games would mean as much as they do now, nothing. but you get a lot more meaningful games.

Thank you. What always seems to get lost in this scenario is how totally unfair it is to the team that won the 1st game. The loser gets a 2nd chance to split the season series 1-1, finish with identical records, and oh yeah...win the national championship.
I dont agree the 1st matchup was meaningless,it was for the SEc west title and a right to play for the SEC title,the 2nd matchup would be for the BCS title which in my opinion just shows how much of a joke the bcs is esp.when the pac 12 2nd place team in north division has a better shot at playing for BCS title than Oregon and since Oregon already got spanked by LSU,and Oregon Spanked Stanford it goes to reason that stanford would probably get spanked by LSU too

The BIG12 is loaded with teams that play no defense ....
Oklahoma St. easily could have gotten to the NCG....just needed to beat Iowa St as a 4 TD favorite and a Banged up Oklahoma Squad.....
Nobody to blame but themselves
BEST OF HEALTH, HAPPINESS,WEALTH, BLESSINGS and LUCK TO ALL !!
