Mack was apparently whining. He apparently knew the rules, but was still dissatisfied with the result.

 

Hopefully Missouri will pull an upset tomorrow and then all will be fair and all this BCS talk will die off.
Longhorn fans have a legitimate gripe! The way it looks the BCS is going to play out this year is not a fair system. There needs to be a play off.

Texas beat both teams that are going to play in the big 12 (beat each by double digits as a matter of fact).

 

Serves him right!!! Karma's a bitch, ain't it, Mackey?

 

Dont know. If youre talking about 2005, Texas went to the Rose Bowl, beat Michigan in the most exciting Rose Bowl game of all time (only to do it again the next year against Pac 10)

Meanwhile, California, who believed they deserved to be in place of Texas, went to the Holiday Bowl and got clobbered by a mid-place Texas Tech team


but anyway, to answer the original question, this year, the Big 12 South division had a 3-team tie between Texas, Oklahoma, and TTU.

TTU was out of the running for having suffered a recent lost. It was between Texas and Oklahoma.

The tie-breaker for the division is the ranking in BCS system - partly determined by voters. Texas had beaten Oklahoma 45-35 earlier in the season. Some alum chartered a plane to fly a banner "45-35" over an Oklahoma game to remind everyone of their loss. This was the OK alum's response

 

 

They are all playing for 2nd place anyway. Roll Tide.

 

you dont realize the fact that the last 4 of 5 bcs champions came in as #2

the 1/5 exception being usc who should have been disqualified due to reggie bush

 

And that statistic effects this year's outcome how? The best team is going to win, regardless of ranking. The national champion will be the winner of the game in Atlanta tomorrow.
