re: Andy Staples says, Blame Okie St and the Big 12 if you don't like the matchup

A plus one playoff this year would just result in LSU arse whipping Stanford and Bama curb-stomping OSU before they meet for the championship. The Big 12 thought it was a trick and that Slive was trying to put one over on them. SEC had been left out in 2004 (Auburn) and wanted to keep that from happening again. Now that SEC is dominating I don't expect an undefeated SEC team would ever be left out. OSU is actually better off this year claiming that they were jobbed rather than bringing the 107th rated defense to a gunfight.
