TSteven...I don't really think Texas has much of a shot anymore.

Yeah, no one down here is saying anything anymore about a Title defense. We are all gearing up for the Fiesta Bowl......hopefully.

I agree. But it isn't out of the realm of possibility.
For Texas to make it back they would need Southern California, Arkansas, Notre Dame, Florida and Rutgers all to go down to defeat at least once more. Those teams would then be on a down swing with two or more losses each. On the other hand, Texas would have wins against Texas A&M in the regular season and then Nebraska in the Big XII Championship. The sports writers might view the Horns on an upswing.
Bottom line is that Southern California controls its own destiny. If USC wins out, the sports writers and computer polls will most likely end up ranking USC number two.

Two things regarding National Merit Scholars at Oklahoma:
"Public" university.
"Per Capita"

Seriously, I doubt it would have taken this turn if one poster hadn't felt the need to pontificate: They aren't called INDIANS you moron, Indians are from India, Native Americans are the indigenous people of North America. Sorry, but that kind of self-righteousness just can't go ignored.

I don't see how the potential offensiveness of this term has much to do with anything in this thread unless you want to talk about the NCAA's stance on indian/native american mascots which is ridiculous.
|
Completely agree on the NCAA's forced political correctness.
Just one more detour, and then I'll stop, I promise:

Yes, it does, and it goes before the a, not after it.
Okay, I feel better -- back to football.
I'll be interested to see what Butch Davis will do at Carolina.

There are actually people in my office who were crying. They were at U-Mich during Bo's reign. We have decided that, if you see a field goal kick that doesn't look quite straight enough or strong enough, but it suddenly makes it through the posts, we'll know Bo is there.

Bo- rest in peace. You helped make this rivalry fun. However I still hope Fichigan loses. I know you and Woody will be watching this game together tomorrow!
GO BUCKS!
And congratulations to Ohio University for being the East Division Champions! Good luck in the Conference Championship game!

Hey, thanks to you and BigRedBeta for the kind comments.
I've always been a fan of collegiate sports on the more minor level, and after being through years of university administrations who didn't support our teams, it's great to see what is, hopefully, the beginning of a comeback for Ohio Football. It's fun to watch a game where all of the players don't expect to compete on Sunday afternoons -- and where graduation levels are in the 80 to 90 percentages.
I wish I could spend every glorious Fall football Saturday in in the Hocking Hills in Athens.
