And on a side note. I love how Texas and Florida get passes on their loss, but OU doesn't. After listening to ESPN for a month, you would think that Florida and Texas are both undefeated......
Right. I can kind of understand Texas' loss. It came at the end of a grueling stretch, it was on the road against a highly ranked conference opponent, and it came after a missed play (the missed interception before Tech scored the winning TD). That loss can be understood if not given a pass. But a home loss to Mississippi St.? No.

I knew that. My mistake. But them crushing Tech means nothing as far as the result of the Miss/Florida game goes. I mean, Oregon St. beat USC and got crushed by Penn St. What did that mean for Penn St. when it came to the Rose Bowl?
