A BCS Mess and The GMs Top 10

Thank you Oklahoma! You have royally messed up the BCS now. And if you lose on Saturday it will further screw it up.

If you just would have gone ahead and lost on Saturday night Texas Tech could have gone on to beat Missouri and play the SEC Champ for the National Championship and we all would have been happy with that.

But no. Not only could you not do that but you embarrassed the Red Raiders and showed the nation all their flaws. So now we have to look at how badly you beat Tech and consider it. And if you go ahead and win at Oklahoma State than you will make it even more complicated as there will be a three way tie for the Big 12 South crown (assuming Texas and Texas Tech both win as well).

Which means the Big 12 South would be decided by.......(drum roll please).......the BCS rankings. That's right the highest ranked team in the BCS would get the chance to play the Big 12 North champion. Which at this point could be Texas or Oklahoma.

My opinion.....Texas should get the bid. Based primarily on the fact that they beat Oklahoma. They should NOT fall behind Oklahoma just cause the Sooners destroyed Tech and the Horns lost to Tech. Why....because the Horns still BEAT the Sooners!!

And that is they way it should be.


The GMs Top 10:


  1. Alabama (1) 11-0 - They keep winning and while no one gives them much of a chance against Florida I wouldn't count them entirely out yet. But I also wouldn't look past Auburn right now. That is going to be a good football game in my opinion as rivalry games usually are.
  2. Florida (3) 10-1 - They keep winning. No matter who it is they win and they win big. Up next is the Noles and like I said about Auburn...watch out Gators....don't take the Noles lightly.
  3. Texas (4) 10-1 - They will ALWAYS be ahead of Oklahoma as long as they win. They beat the Sooners and Okie State so OU shouldn't be able to get by them now. But again a rivalry game with a beaten foe in A&M comes this Thursday night....be ready Horns!
  4. Oklahoma (5) 10-1 - A great win over Tech on Saturday night has them thinking National Title. But I am not sure they can jump Texas. If they didn't jump em last week I don't think it can happen this week.
  5. USC (6) 9-1 - Not too much left to scare the Trojans this year...just Notre Dame (haha) and UCLA remain between USC and a 11-1 season. A national title contender long shot though unless OU and Texas lose in the next 2 weeks.
  6. Penn State (7) 11-1 - They made an example out of Michigan State on Saturday and are headed for the Rose Bowl. They have an outside shot at the National Title but it is HIGHLY unlikely.
  7. Utah (9) 12-0 - Another impressive win against BYU gave them the Mountain West title and a likely shot at a BCS game in a little over a month. They have earned it and could give someone a run for their money.
  8. Texas Tech (2) 10-1 - A bad loss Saturday night. Even if they win the Big 12 they are likely out of the title hunt. An absolute drubbing at the hands of the Sooners in Norman.
  9. Boise State (8) 11-0 - They have one more test against Fresno State for their undefeated season but would still probably miss out on a BCS game thanks to the Utes also running the table. A good team but not good enough this year.
  10. Missouri (10) 9-2 - They have already locked up the Big 12 North I believe. So even if they lose to Kansas they will still show up on Dec 6 to play one of the big 3 from the South. And if they win that they basically blow up the BCS. GO TIGERS!


Almost There:

  • Ohio State 10-2 - Another crushing beat down of Michigan completed their season and likely got them into a good bowl game....maybe even a BCS game.
  • Oklahoma State 9-2 - They get their chance this weekend against OU and at home to boot.
