"It's a shame that OU can play for the BCS Championship game when they didn't even win their own division."

Yep, that kind of bugs me too but the Big 12 and SEC are usually hurt because of the extra game. Had OU been in the ACC, Big 10, Pac 10, ETC..., they would still be undefeated since those conferences do not have a championship game.

I've heard the question posed, "How can you be a National Champion when you are not even a local champion?" It does rub people the wrong way but no more so than it bothering the person who believes that Al Gore should have been the president since he had more votes than Dubya. We just have to accept the BCS and hope we get a better way soon enough. I know OU and LSU are in favor of a playoff system. I'd bet top dollar that USC wishes we had the system already in place.
