@Dashiell Bennett: Two national titles, three-time National Championship game MVP (including one over Charlie Ward in 1993), and a lifetime 33-3 recond.
If Tim Tebow beats Oklahoma to win his second national championship in three years there's no doubt he's the greatest player of the BCS era.
Tim Tebow was the backup on the 2006 title team. In his first year as the Gators' starter, he lost more games than Matt Leinart lost as a starter in his entire college career. But since he played most of his games outside of the southeast, which is apparently the only place that college football happens, I suppose he doesn't count.
I think the BCS selection committee is purposely making tOSU the symbol of everything wrong with the BCS every season until the Big 10 finally gets sick of it and agrees to a playoff.
Maybe, as an tOSU fan, I'm just tired of being the symbol of the all the BCS's shortcomings, because there's absolutely no reason tODU should be playing in a BCS bowl over Boise St., other than "They'll make the most money", and everyone knows it.
@Matt_T: As stated, the old way, either write a check to set the games up or let each of them play a 1 loss squad and let the voters decide. Worse case we have a split, but every body got a shot to make their case.
@ghostsoftheSCupcountry: Under the old way the conference champs HAD to go to their bowl tie in. So Florida would be in the Sugar. There was no getting around that.
I liked the Dr Pepper halftime contests better when they had to kick a field goal for a million. this $100,000 scholarships is truly a sign of the GOD DAMN recession.

There's no way a computer could quantify Tim Tebow's intensity.

Correct, the Boise State/OK game. Which DIDN'T feature two 2 losses big conference schools.

I'm pretty psyched for the title game (even though Miami is a crappy place to be going)
