Longhorns Lose to BCS System

I hate to whine, but it sure does seem like the Texas Longhorns got screwed by the BCS, in what will surely cause even greater hatred of the BCS system. I know that I'm biased, but I fail to see how you can say that Oklahoma deserves to be in the Big XII championship, and on the way to Miami (barring any unforseen circumstances).

I for one am rooting for Mizzou this weekend, and a small Florida win, in which Texas may not be jumped by the Gators. Likely? No. But it is the holiday season, and we are all allowed to have hope, right?

Very strange that a computer picks the winner. Don't you think there should be a better way.

It is not a championship at all. It is a popularity contest. You don't vote for legitimate championships you play for them. Div1 FCS has a playoff system and crowns a REAL champion. All other NCAA sports have playoffs.

And now you have Colt McCoy again losing out. I really don't understand how somebody with lower completion percentage, fewer rushing yards, and a much better o-line, receiver corps, and running back could pass up Colt. Amazing to me the disrespect of Texas this year.

Texas didn't even get a free jar of Vasoline with the decision.
