And I haven't even mentioned the absurd computer rankings that Big12 teams have this year. They are down right laughable and a big reason why people look at some of OSU's wins and think they are good wins. OSU really lucked out with that.

It is something you consider. But I'd say that the caliber of teams you've beaten is more important than how badly you beat them.
I agree with you, but in this case, if you're an objective voter, you would probably be considering BOTH whereas too many making Oklahoma State's case are trying to bracket off dominance of the wins as if that isn't something to consider at all.
This is exactly like claiming Alabama proponents want to only focus on losses. It's purposefully selecting certain elements of the resume while effacing others to make an argument.
It's understandable but it's certainly not objectively looking at "total body of work".

You don't think the Big12's computer rankings were way off? And do you not think OSU looked better because of them? Hell it directly affected how many points they scored in the computers.

If that is your opinion then I'd have to respect it. We just disagree I guess. Nothing wrong with that.

I know it's hard for some people to believe, but the SEC wasn't all that great outside of the top few schools.

Bottom Line.
Alabama has only beaten 3 teams with a winning record. Their only competition was LSU and they got spanked at home. OSU deserved their shot. They beat more teams with a +.500 record, more top 25, AND won their conference. BAMA had their shot, and blew it. They DID NOT deserve a rematch. TOTAL BCS! LSU will beat that arse this go round!

Oklahoma has been averaging something like 4th in the computer polls. They aren't that good you know that. Same with Texas Baylor and K State. They have had very inflated computer rankings. Idk what they were in the final polls btw.

We are trying to have civil conversation. Go away.

Any LSU fan that's totally honest with themselves will admit Bama is better than Okie State. The don't want a rematch because they know Okie State is an easy win. All this whining is about not wanting to play a better Bama team. The best 2 teams are in the SEC and everyone knows it. Who cares how many overrated Big 10 teams Okie State beat?
