I went back to the 10th and looked. I didn't see it posted. Obviously it's crap. Or is it?
Should Alabama be ineligible for the coaches poll, hence out of BCS Championship?
December 10th, 2009 by Vince Mullins
From reader Steve via e-mail, rock solid research and based in fact, but I fear this will likely go the way of the “Barack Obama was not born in the USA so he cannot be President” campaign. But let’s see if we can break down this BC-Mess, shall we? Please forward to your favorite blogs, websites and writers:
It appears that either the USA Today Coaches poll members must re-vote in order to recalculate the final BCS standings, OR The National Football Foundation & College Hall of Fame, Inc. should move up the University Cincinnati’s football team to play the University of Texas football team in the BCS Championship game.
At the bottom of the AFCA page with the Coaches Votes it specifically states:
“The AFCA prohibits coaches from voting for schools on major NCAA probation.”
LINK
And I think it is very clear they are on “major” probation due to a textbook scandal.
LINK
Even though they appealed, the infractions are not set aside per below NCAA Bylaw:
32.10.2 – Determinations of fact and violations arrived at by the Committee on Infractions shall not be set aside on appeal.
LINK
Based on these circumstances, the University of Alabama football team is required receive 0 (zero) points from the USA Today Coaches poll, giving them a recalculated BCS average of 0.6656, thus moving them down to number 8 on the BCS final standings:

I'm sure the NCAA/SEC will cover this up but the links look solid to me...
Just sayin.

Not blaming you at all.
You didn't write this dumb shite.
Just the messenger.
Whoever wrote it stayed up all night jerking it to pictures of Mike Dubose clapping as his football team turned the ball over and me crying...then forgot he had a deadline and had to write something quickly

It was on here last week.
Prolly got RA'd for being such a stupid topic. It was eating up bandwidth.
I wonder where the outcry was last year when OU played in the NC game.

It's called reading comprehension, use it. Re-read the first line of my post. It's the part where I talk about going back to the 10th on TD and searching forward. Didn't find it posted. So again, link?

That makes sense. Whack this one too I guess. Seems valid enough to discuss though. It will never happen, but it's still interesting.

I think you just answered your own question.
And again, OU faced the same thing last year.

True. Makes you wonder. What would have happened if the NCAA had actually punished Bama for the textbook thing. Hmmmm...
