Auburn got blown out by unranked team, Notre Dame got blown out by Michigan and hasn't played anyone of worth since then, Lousiville and West Virginia haven't played anyone, and Texas has only lost 1 game and that was to the #1 team in the nation.Texas didn't put up much more of a fight against Ohio State than Notre Dame did against Michigan, and Texas hasn't played "anyone of worth" since that game, either. I'm just sayin'...

Not much of a fight?

I don't call 340 offensive yards against the #1 team in the nation not much of a fight.

Notre Dame got beat by 26. Thats not much of a fight.

Texas has beaten 3 Big XII teams already including Oklahoma.

I'd call 7 points on the scoreboard, versus 24, not much of a fight. A little, but not much.

Wowzers. Texas beat Oklahoma (not bad, but not entirely great), Baylor (LOLzorz!!!), and Iowa State.

That 7 easily could have been 17 if not for a fumble on the goal-line and a bad kick. That score was somewhat deceptive.

Just to prove a point on how FUCKED UP the BCS Computers are, here are the top 10 COMPUTER rankings:

1. USC
2. Michigan
3. Ohio State
4. Florida
5. Auburn
6. California
7. Notre Dame
8. Arkansas
9. Rutgers
10. Louisville

Looks like someone needs to install Norton on those computers because they are messed up.

Definately not better opponents than Texas has played and Texas' margin of winning is much higher.

I agree for the most part, but meeting/beating spreads/expectations is important to voters. Texas is 6-1 with their only loss to #1 Ohio State. Notre Dame is 5-1 with their only loss to #3 Michigan. Texas was beaten by the better opponent, lost by less points, and is ranked higher in all 3 polls.

that looks right to me arkansas has more wins over top 25 teams than texas so they should be higher. and their lose is to number1 or 2 depending on which poll so this is how it should be. :D

don't cry because you know what you need more than anything for texas to have any shot at a title game is for arkansas to win out to keep auburn out of the sec title game, and you need UA to beat UF for texas to have a shot. but I know mitch isn't ready yet for this and they will lose at least 2 more games b4 the end of the season. so you better hope I am wrong and start rooting for the pigs. :D :cool:

Arkansas lucked out against Vandy/'Bama and caught Auburn on an off day. They still have to play Tennessee and LSU. They'll lose those games.

Also, 'Bama was only ranked in 1 poll when Arkisaw beat them in OT and they were like #24 anyway.

No way. This isn't last year where Penn State was good and Purdue sucks. Stanford? They haven't been good since before I was born.

Notre Dame always plays a bunch of nobodies to rack up wins and puts USC on there at the end of the year. NBC has the TV contract with them so you know the BCS is going to be slobbing that knob.

The 'Bama game doesn't really count as a ranked team win because they were in only one poll. Thats more like .5 of a ranked win and it wasn't much of one at that.

I think Texas A&M is having a great season so far due to a weak schedule but has the ability to self destruct in a game still. I understand Texas A&M is not the best program in Texas.

You are the idiot that speaks of UT as if it is the best program in the Nation. Why else would you have started this stupid ass thread?

Ohio State came into UT's home and ran UT over which basically proved to you that UT truly was no longer number 1. Let's imagine every team takes a loss and somehow UT ends up in the National Championship against say Ohio State or Michigan, do you really think they would win? I admit they are good but there are several programs that are better. I think that Auburn, Florida, USC and WVA are equal or stronger programs than UT currently.

I make this assessment based off the game from this year between Ohio State and UT. Unlike you this is not an assumption based off of the "if VY was still at UT and Bush/Leinart were at USC like last year". I am talking real world right now, no references made to last year okay.

Ohio State went into Austin and dispatched UT with no issue. I am not sure what you think of the score 24-7 but I think the fact that Ohio State scored points in every quarter and only allowed one score in that game made it evident that UT was out classed on Offense and Defense. I see that both teams are improving but I do not feel that UT would be able to overcome Ohio State in January if given another chance.

I make this assessment based off the game from this year between Ohio State and UT. Unlike you this is not an assumption based off of the "if VY was still at UT and Bush/Leinart were at USC like last year". I am talking real world right now, no references made to last year okay.

Ohio State went into Austin and dispatched UT with no issue. I am not sure what you think of the score 24-7 but I think the fact that Ohio State scored points in every quarter and only allowed one score in that game made it evident that UT was out classed on Offense and Defense. I see that both teams are improving but I do not feel that UT would be able to overcome Ohio State in January if given another chance.

then maybe you need to pull that big head of yours out of your ass then. Cause if you think this is the same team as when Ohio St. played them, then you're dumber than most people think on here.

on D, with T. Brown and Ma. Griffin in there the secondary would be a full strength and would allow different coverages for Ginn and Gonzalez. Not only that but Drew Kelson was also out and the LB's weren't playing very well at the time. Now would this change, maybe not but you have to add it in there if we're going to talk about it (i'm bored).

This was the game that let Colt age lightyears this season. If not for this game, even with the loss, he might not have had the confidence that he had for OU. But, because of the tOSU game, he will be a hell of a lot better QB at the end of the season, no matter who they play.

oh, and my assessment is for this year, you need to comprehend my sentence instead of just seeing the letters "UT" and "USC" and making that assumption. You should know this teacher pro trash.

Bert...have no problem with you or UT fans...just venom. I want UT to win (except against THE Ohio State University) :cool:

oh i know, i was just saying that because that's all i heard and read from Buckeye fans last year was "well, if we played UT now we would win" and all that. I just think it's funny that some UT fans are saying the same thing now. that's all.

Auburn does belong where they are...

Hate as much as i hate Texas, they should be ranked better then WVU, RIGHT NOW..
[Yes SVTVYboyfriendOf Vince Youngs] you heard it here first...

But if WVU wins out their schedule, then its a whole diff. schedule/story

LOL you seem a little upset bert, I'm not the one quoting irrelevant stuff from last season, you were, so I suggest you stop posting idiotic crap so I won't have to point it out. As for UT being better than they were in the first game, I agree but then you also have to acknlowledge OSU is a much better team than the team that played UT earlier this year as well. I hope you aren't making the assumption that Ohio State is regressing while UT is gaining in leaps and bounds? It seems UT still hasn't truly come on par with OSU as of yet nor do I think they will. After the beginning of the Baylor game, I was a little worried about UT. They were essentially held scoreless by a team no where near their equal so they do have some issues, even though it was a convincing win, the start was not pretty. So one would need to rationalize such a start against a team such as OSU would be much harder to recover from.

Talk like this is really just pointless.

No team will be 'up' for every minute of every game.

*Here are some High Points of the BCS top tier from a few undefeateds. These are purely just examples... theres no agenda or trying to prove one is any better than the other.

WVU vs. East Carolina was 14-7 at halftime

Ohio State vs. Penn State was 10-6 with 2:30ish left

Ohio State vs. Cinci was 13-7 at halftime

Heres a good one...
USC hasn't won by more than 7 points in 3 weeks (against Washington St, Washington, Arizona St)

Louisville skirts passed Cinci with a 4th down stop on thier own 20

Very very few teams will go through a season without a hitch. Talking about who beat who and by what score doesn't really have any affect on the outcome. Keep winning and you stay in the hunt.

i'm not, i was bored and in a typing mood last night. And i never stated nor do i believe that OSU hasn't gotten better as this year progresses. Also, i'm sure UT is the only team to have a close first quarter of play. I mean, OSU would NEVER have a tough first against a team like Cincinatti. So what does that mean? not jack shit

and it's awfully ironic that you of all people would call someone elses post "idiotic" good job.

I disagree, if you do not wish to debate these points and their merits that is fine, I feel they are worthy of debate. Two problems with your post however, Number one is Baylor is not ranked nor has it been this season, Penn State was at the time of the OSU game. So it is kind of like apples and oranges when comparing these two games. Penn has 3 losses this season all to top 5 ranked teams at game time, OSU, MICH and ND. All three of those teams are currently ranked in the top 10 two of them in the top 2 or 3 spots depending on the poll you use.

Number two is the Penn State stats, at no point in the game was the score 10-6.

In the 4th quarter it went like this.

12:56 it was 14-3 OSU

7:33 it was 14-6 OSU

2:31 it was 21-6 OSU

What does Baylor have to do with anything I have said??

I just threw up some close games by the remaining unbeatens... showing that no team will be 100% for every minute of every game. Seems like everyone throws out 'overrated' and starts raising eyebrows everytime a team doesn't put up history making numbers or put away should be beaten teams by the second quarter. Sometimes you just have hard fought 60 minute games.

Top teams find a way to win period. Whether ists ugly or not.

Number two is the Penn State stats, at no point in the game was the score 10-6.

Yes, you are right... I glanced at the box score and thought the 4th qt. TD was a FG. So tack on 4 more points (14-6)... really doesn't change the point.

14-6, 10-6 i think you get the point being made. Then again, maybe you don't

I thought about why auburn is ranked higher, so what they lost to unranked arkansas, they still beat the number 2, number 6 or 9 can't remember what lsu was ranked when they played. texas beat what number 16 ou wow. they have better wins which is more important than better losses, at least to the computers.

I am still waiting for your answer to this. texas needs all the ranked teams they play to win out from here on. :D

To move up? No, they don't. All they need to do is win out and have the teams in front of them lose or win out and have the teams they play continue to stay in the top 25.

There are a shitload of scenarios right now so I'm not sweating it too much right now. I'm just enjoying another win over a ranked opponent. :)
