Cal was shafted...but whining about it won't help.

I don't know if I think that's a good idea. Perhaps Cal was screwed. Or perhaps everyone thought that Cal should've whooped Southern Miss. Then again, Texas should've whooped Kansas in their eyes, too. I just don't know if making the votes public would make much difference. This ought to be good.

Cal went out and won their game, including taking a knee to end it instead of running up the score. Meanwhile, Texas sat on their asses and did nothing. How can you determine that one team got better when that team didn't even play a game? If you want to talk about margin of victory, take a look at Texas against Kansas and Arkansas. The Big 12 conference receives an additional 4.5 million by Texas getting in...wonder what coaches changed their mind? The Auburn thing pales in comparison. Most people would agree that the two best teams are playing for the title.

Win your weak assed conference.
You're fortunate you didn't tumble all the way to the fucking Alamo Bowl after losing your CCG in double OT and still being in the top 6 of the computerized rankings. (ala KSU 98.) |

Cal's only loss came to the best team in the country, and it was only by 6 points. Since they are in the same division as USC, they didn't play in the CCG. UCLA won their division (at 4-4) and faced USC in the CCG. Cal is top five in both scoring O and scoring D in the entire NCAA. If you're busting on them as not deserving, you don't know shit about college football.

UT pulled some strings.
one who sucks the peniss. Mangino nailed it after the stolen victory the longhorns had over Kansas... it's all about dollar signs.

I'd love to see coaches get caught voting Cal out.

If they're going to use blatant homerism to vote, at least do it all year long. If you think this system is working, you have family on the BCS commitee.

TFB. Beat SC and they are in. Next year, they'll be the sentimental favorite for the at large, just like Texas was this year. God knows they cried for 8 months after the decisions came down last season. |

OK, I just re-read the article and one thing did jump out at me.
The President of the American Football Coaches Association is Grant Teaff. Grant Teaff was the long time coach for Baylor. In the old Southwest Conference. Jsp, I take it back. I'll bet there was plenty of Texas back room buggering going on. |
