I agree with Tommy Tuberville.

His point is well taken, but to be honest I think it's a load of BS. Auburn wasn't the first team to ever go undefeated and not get a shot at #1 and it won't be the last. That's just the way it is.

...and since the BCS came into existence in 1998, two SEC teams have managed to win National titles . . . and one of them was NOT undefeated. I'd say winning 1 out of every 4 years is pretty good for any conference.

I agree. It takes going undefeated to have a chance anymore. If you playing in SEC or Big 10 that's not going to happen. It definatley favors the Big East. Big 12 and Pac 10.

Probably goes without saying that I'm in this camp.

Your argument would have more sway with me if the AP had not split the NC the year before with LSU and USC. Now I realize that the BCS and the AP are two different things, but I still say they should have shared the NC that year as well.

AU could have beaten Va Tech into the ground for style points, but instead held on to the win. Had the BCS done its job, Auburn and USC would have been playing for the NC.

Perhaps you need another recap of Oklahoma's 2004 regular season? It wasn't just good... It was INSANELY good. Five of the six Big XII South teams were ranked at once, and the Sooners sent them all packing, including a shutout of Texas.

OU's 2004 resume was better than Auburn's.
