Can't see the difference between last yr and this yr. But solid bait by the OP if that was his intention.


What exactly is he differnce other than the proverbial "eyeball" test?

One the rankings of Florida and Bama. Two OK state lost to an unranked team second to last game of season. Three Bama lost to the number one team by three pts in OT. Bama benefitted by virtue of LSU being number one and remaining that way. Florida lost to a team that is number three. Each season and the games that are played are different year to year and you can't paint each season with the same broad brush. The BCS is set up to put one versus two not best conf champs. Bama was easily the best team last year simply because our offense was far more balanced than LSU. If Florida and Georgia were one and two and the game was as close and Georgia was sitting at one and Florida at three assuming Bama loses the seccg then Florida would go as numbe trek and we would have the same situation as last yr. as it is ND is one and there is no way to get Florida in. Had ND lost to USC then it would be Bama or Ga vs Florida with the exact same situation. Bama has benefitted from the rules that are in Place and I don't see why lSU fans have such a hard time seeing this.

The difference is that you can't be put into BCS championship game over a team from the same conference that won your conference championship and has the same record.

Florida has a better resume right now than UGA or Bama.

If the polls were going to accurately reflect the body of work...

1. ND
2. UF
3. UGA
4. Bama


The only reason Alabama is ranked number 2 right now is how they fared last season which is complete and utter bullshite.

Having said all of that, there is zero chance UF jumps both of those teams.

The Bama fans can thank us for taking care of Texas A&M for them. Had Florida not beaten them, they would be playing in Atlanta.

I would say that Bama played 3 "high profile" games this season. They are 2-1 in those games (UM, LSU, TAMU)

UGA has played 2 of those type games and are 1-1 (UF and USC).

UF has played 5 and is 4-1 in those games (UGA, LSU, TAMU, USC, and FSU).
