Russell is exactly right!!!

The only reason there is such a controversy is the fact that the Human pollsters do not take into consideration the whole season. For some reason a loss in the beginning of the season is far more acceptable in college football than one at the end of the season.

USC lost to a 7-6 Cal team. OU lost to an 11-3 K-State team. LSU lost to an 8-4 Florida team. What does that say about the quality of the opponent who beat them.

The BCS is not wrong. It did what it is supposed to do and pick the two teams that over the course of the entire season were the best. There should be no extra penalty for losing late in the season. If you think that OU will beat USC than OU deserves to be ranked higher than USC (which is why K-state isn't higher than OU, b/c most people don't think that K-state normally beats OU)

There is no controversy. The two best teams are playing each other so quit your bitching
