georgia just flat out dominating on both sides of the ball. hats off to them.
at this point it looks like the bcs got it wrong and picked the wrong team from the sec
Wasn't it the reporters and coaches that ended up having the greatest impact? I may be wrong here, but for some reason thought that the final polls made it mathematically impossible for the computer model to put UGA in the title game. I understand the argument against Georgia, and don't have a problem with it. I have a problem with the way the top 10 shook out after all the upsets, though:
--Ohio State continued to move up the polls after their regular season was over (November 17, I believe). Georgia moved up as well, until the final week, when the coaches and reporters apparently were determined to correct "errors" in previous weeks' voting, continuing to move OSU up, and then leapfrogging LSU and OU over UGA. Why not leap over OSU as well, as they were not playing either? Oh yeah, they won the Big Ten. BFD.
--LSU jumps from 7th (or thereabouts) to 2nd?
--OU jumps from 9th to 3rd?
--KSU still gets a BCS game and Mizzou doesn't?
We'll see how competitive the rest of the BS - sorry, BCS - games are. The sad thing to me is that they had the opportunity to put some great games together. Instead, OU goes up against WVU, USC against the Illini (damned Rose Bowl allegiance to the Pac-10 and Big Ten), and UGA against Hawaii. I think OU will handle WVU in similar fashion to what USC and UGA did to their opponents. IMO, these were the three teams playing the best ball and none were put in competitive games. Maybe good for the schools, buy we missed out on some good games.
The lobbyists for the SEC and Big Ten seem to have performed well, while the Big-12 and Pac-10 were not quite as influential.
