If WVA gets upset by Pitt AND Oklahoma beats Mizzou, then all hell will break lose as arguments come in for the next best 2-loss team in the country. Georgia? They didn't even play in the SEC Championship. LSU? They lost twice to unranked teams. Virginia Tech? Still has to play against BC in the ACC Championship, however you can't look past that ugly loss to LSU in September. And USC? They lost to Stanford!

I don't know. I really doubt WVA is going to lose ( I mean it can happen) but it's the prospect of what's going to happen in the Big 12 championship game. I know a lot of people are going to be upset and this will be more fuel for the fire that the BCS system needs to go.

Well the argument is either Team A has a lousy schedule and shouldn't be ranked as high as they are....

or Team B has a tougher schedule with more competition and tougher losses and they should be ranked higher..

I don't know. You get that say well if they're undefeated they should play for the National Championship and you have people that say, well a 1-loss SEC team is more deserving because they have a tougher schedule.

You have 6 on one half, half a dozen on the other. But the thing with Ohio State is, none of their wins were convincing enough for me to say "Oh yeah, they totally deserve to be in the National Championship"!.

I'd rather see a 2 loss LSU team vie for the NC because they fought tooth and nail down to the wire in both of their 3OT loss.

Fair. But of course Im going to have to disagree with you and say they totally deserve another NC title.

I give OSU credit for at least trying. It's better than the what Barry Alvarez and Bill Snyder used to do years ago (hello 1-AA creampuffs!)

It would be an absolute crime if Tim Tebow doesn't win the Heisman this year

Tebow has gotta win the Heisman!!! I am biased of course but you can't ignore what he's done against who he's done it against. Colt Brennan had a great year, but there's a reason why he didn't win last year, nor Timmy Chang a few years back.

On a different note, it's Championship weekend!!! Any predictions?

ACC Championship - Jacksonville: (#6) Boston College v (#11) Virginia Tech
In the rematch, I have to go with Virginia Tech and their lacklustre offence. I had BC as the most overrated team at the beginning of the season and was very happy to see them lose finally and expose them for what they were. VTech and their crazy special teams are off to the Orange Bowl!

Big 12 Championship - San Antonio: (#1) Missouri v (#9) Oklahoma
In another rematch, I will take the former loser again and take Chase Daniel and the Mizzou Tigers. They really impressed me in the Border War last weekend and I think they will step their game up to clip the Sooners with a field goal at the end.

SEC Championship - Atlanta: (#7) LSU v (#14) Tennessee
I hate Tenn with a passion and there was no way they deserved to be in this game, but that's how the NCAA works and I respect it. LSU should trounce the loser Vols. I hope someone breaks Ainge's leg and knock out Arian Foster.

I really hope that the BCS Championship game is West Virginia V Missouri (never thought I would be saying that), but I don't want Ohio State sneaking back in by not having a Championship game nor playing since November 17th. I know ppl will say if Mizzou loses, then they have 2 losses therefore OSU should play WVU since they both have 1 losses but who's to say that if OSU plays Illinois again, they wouldn't lose like Mizzou if they lost the Sooners. Only consolation would be hopefully another step towards a PLAYOFF!

Can someone explain to me how LSU can lose twice, both to basically bad teams (except McFadden), and are still most likely play for the championship? Seriouly, BCS needs to go.

wow, just wow. so it turns out not playing for two weeks was the best strategy to get into the title game.

i like how cbs sportsline has Illinois vs USC in the Rose Bowl. we are going to get pounded if that's true.
