Don't think it matters who wins the Florida-Okie Game..YOu Just saw who's Really #1.

As much as it hurts to say this..They are 13-0 and they took us down..and the way they played why should they settle for being less then #1?? Talk about Shock and Awe!!

Because they are Utah, I don't even know what fricking conference they are in. They were better than I anticipated but they are not #1 dude.

They played an amazing game against an extremely uninspired team. They would get beat by at least 2 touchdowns against Florida and them and Okie would be a scorefest that Okie would prob win. I would def. give them #2 over USC though.

It would make you gumps feel better if they were ranked number one, but no way they should be. It would take a little of the sting out, maybe, but the fact is, either Florida or Oklahoma would wipe the floor with Utah. Different league.

I couldn't agree more. It would be ugly.

I don't think so. Just because they beat Bama certainly doesn't make them #1, after all, yall really didn't play anyone with substance, except Florida this year. And you came close to losing more than once. Clemson,???? UGA???

SAban prepared his team in a pthetic way. How 'bout it Bammers? What say you about Uncle Nicki?

Another Bama egomaniac. Geezzzz, you weren't that good, and last I checked, beating Bama doesn't make you #1...unless your Florida.

If it wasn't for the media love for Saban, and the early defeat of what turned out to be a weak Clemson team, you wouldn't have had delusions of grandeur. You beat mediocre teams, including my beloved Tigers. Your big win was Georgia, who went on to show who they really were by getting embarrassed by Florida and shamed by in state rival Ga Tech.

Get over yourself, look over your schedule. Did you really beat Tulane 20-6 and think your the best team in the BCS?

Don't worry, Saban will coach the team when it counts, but sadly, don't count on him to win you games that don't count as much. LSU lost the Capitol One bowl the year after winning the BCS with Saban, who didn't seem to care much, but then again, he was on his way out the door.

Thinking of that...anyone check the charter flights from New Orleans on Friday to Denver or New York? Just kidding, we all know you won't loose Nick to the NFL.

Happy New Year! Only 8 months till SEC football! Urghhh

They should be #1 but only slightly to do with beating Bammer.

The Mtn West was 5-1 v the Pac 10, Utah beat ORst, TCU, MI, and the SEC runner up and were undefeated, for that NUMBER 1

Ranked #1 because they beat your sorry arse, you have got to be kidding. Don't think because you lost to the mountain men that the whole SEC would lose to them. There goes that arrogance that you are so disliked for. Take a hike gump

Feel free to think Utah got ripped off by not getting a better bowl match up, but beating an overrated Bama doesn't make them #1, no matter what the other Mt West teams did.

They beat 3 BCS conference teams (OOC) in the regular season and went undefeated, more than USC can say. They also beat ORst, again something USC cant say.

As an Auburn fan I must disagree that Utah should be #1. Your Mesiah and his under coached and over rated team should and are the #1 laughing stock of the SEC and college football. Auburn had a lousy season and so did others.Utah
has a fine football program but not the #1 team in the nation. Nick Jim Jones served the kool aid and you suckers couldnt get enough.Coach of the year.

Quit trying to make yourselves feel better. Alabama got trounced. You guys played awfully. You could not protect your own quarterback and you could not run the ball. You guys got dominated, but not because utah is amazing. They beat an ailing michigan team, but that this it. They are a nobody.
It isn't that Utah should be #1, it is that Alabama got outplayed and outcoached, and should not be a top-ten team

USC ain't playing for the NC, so what do they have to do with being number 1.

I still can't do it. That was their first road game against a ranked opponent and only their third ranked opponent all season. Being in the Mountain West for them to get number 1 they need to start scheduling a tough out of conference schedule, kind of like Fresno State usually does most years. They did play Michigan but that team was just horrible this year. They also had Utah State, Weber State and Oregon State. If Florida wins the championship, it will be their 6th ranked opponent and the Ole Miss loss is not looking nearly as bad as it did when it took place. If Oklahoma wins, it will be their 7th ranked opponent of the season. I have to give it to the team who played tougher opponents all year. To get beat uo week in and week out and only have one loss is more impressive to me. Utah played a great game bu they need to strengthen their schedule.
