Oh? The Packers dropped one to fucking Kansas City. The Saints lost to ST. LOUIS. Do they not deserve to play each other in the conference title game for the right to go to the Super Bowl if both teams win this week?

And if your answer is yes, what the fuck makes Oklahoma State any different?


These situations don't even apply.

The NFL system is completely different from the BCS and allows for regular season losses, which is precisely what I don't want anyways.

That, and there are much less teams vying for your spot in the NFL.


Then why bother mentioning the Patriots? If anything, that just opened the door for "Goddammit, we need a fucking playoff."

Patriots = name brand team. Think of Texas last year. Name brand team, but losing to them last year would've been embarassing.

So question:

If Houston had gone undefeated would you have supported a Houston/LSU title game, given the fact you don't want to allow regular season losses?

Had Houston been in a tougher conference, yes, I'd support it.

Don't give us that "tougher conference" shit. Do you think that Houston deserved to go to the BCS title game over Alabama if they would've not shit a brick against Southern Miss or not?

This is just a "what if" game. Fact is, they did shit a brick against Southern Miss, and no, they didn't deserve to go to the BCS title game over Alabama, or Oklahoma State, or Oregon, or Stanford, or Arkansas, or even Boise State.


Actually, I wouldn't even put them in the top 25, but that's just me.

Remind me to never talk to you about college football again.

Lol dude, Houston played one top 25 team in the entire regular season and they lost to them. Why the hell do they deserve to be in the top 25?

Lol, Houston!?!? HOUSTON?! I'll grant you that Oklahoma State had a strong case for being in the title game, but Houston?! *facepalm*

One of our local high school football teams went undefeated this year. Maybe they should have faced LSU for the championship.

LSU fans were just hoping they'd get to play Oklahoma State. If Houston had been picked, LSU would have been ready to start engraving the trophy as soon as the selection was made.

LSU would've waded a mudhole through Houston. That would've been funny as hell to watch, honestly.

What the fuck DO you want then if you wouldn't have put an undefeated team in the title game then?

I want conference reorganization where every team has to face roughly equal strength of schedules and I want a 4 team playoff system.

If there is no conference reorganization, and we have an 8 or 16 playoff system, I hope you all will enjoy SEC vs SEC matchups every year lol
