I'm actually surprised we are ranked above USC in the AP. Heck, in my own top 10 here I had USC above us...

do u honestly believe USC is better than Bama?!

noone will make me think any different that Alabama and Florida are the two best teams in the nation, i dont think another team can beat either one, but if they played 10 times each would win 5.

 

[4th-and-1]

why is usc above alabama in the coaches poll?

what's the logic there?.. i could see maybe alphabetical order, or wins, or least losses.. either way alabama would be listed ahead in every catagory..

 

[planomateo]

actually we (USC and Bama) are tied for 4th. BS, but not a big surprise to me as folks seem to love some USC.

 

[4th-and-1]

i realize that we are tied, but why is usc listed first?.. it really doesn't matter, but for the life of me i cannot think of one plausable reason for it..


we fell back, but did not fall behind them.. someone had to decide to write their name before ours.. i don't see it..

 

[AlabamaAubKiller]

If i'm not mistaken these are the final BCS rankings that came out today. We're still renked #1 in the BCS. Therefore WE should be playing OU for the tittle. Am i wrong on this?

I think if we played USC we'd lose, yes.

I honestly believe they have more talent on hand than the team we just lost to...

BCS selection is televised for the last one, so it won't be released til after 7pm CST tonight...tune to Fox if you want to watch.

Of course don't ask Oregon State, Stanford, or even UCLA about talent. I agree we should lose but I think the outcome would be otherwise.

Why are you guys giving up so damn easy?
We have 1 loss. Fla has one loss. OU has 1 loss.

Comon. :roll:

It's not about giving up, it's about the fact we lost yesterday so we won't be listed at #1.

We'll get more love from the computer rankings because of the loss to UF, but I see us coming in around 5 in the final poll (BCS.)

 

[planomateo]

Coaches #4 Florida lost to UNRANKED Mississippi.
Coaches #1 OU lost to Coaches #5 Texas.
BCS #1 Texas lost to BCS #7 Texas Tech.
BCS #1 Bama lost to BCS #4 Florida.
Florida

Pretty wild huh...

There is something to be said about losing early. it stinks, but it's how the cookie crumbles.

i'm not stupid but i don't damnget it and i'm starting to get ticked off. Like planomateo shoes in the post above..... #1 OU lost to #5 Tx and #1Bama lost to #4 Fla..... so NOW OU still gets a tittle shot with the same damn record we have? Tim Teabag beat us heads up....but we lost to a top 5 team.

Am i the only one here with a Bullsht detector goting off? :sp

Oklahoma won their conference title. What would you propose? Us versus Florida for the National Championship? Thats game's been played. Had we won yesterday, there would be no whining on this board whatsoever about the BCS.
