If injuries put asterisks on wins, EVERY game played will have an asterisk, let alone the championship game. Ridiculous argument! The only asterisk there should be is right next to the sports writer's name for being retarded (and still managing to publish his crap!)

Let's try playing the game...what happened to the great McCoy against Nebraska where they had a total of 202 yards?

I'd say Gilbert did a better job throwing for 186 yards, 2 TDs and 4 interceptions against Bama compared to McCoy's 184 yards, ZERO TDs and 3 interceptions.

If Texas was supposed to be an one man army, why did the media chatter about their #1 rush defense allowing only 62.15 yards per game? Why not talk about the vaunted defense allowing not one, but two 100 yard rushers? Looks to be like they got beat in their own game.

End of the day, a win is a win is a win and I have no clue why writers have to stir up the pot all the time and not let the kids who played the game enjoy the win.

Writers have to write about the game. What do you think would be the biggest story out of that game? Saban calling the dumbest fake punt ever? 'bama fielding a kick by running around the ball in circles until Texas jumped on the ball? The Tide's awesome stats against a high school quarterback?

THE story of the game is McCoy's injury. Would've been nice if the high point was 'bama's awesome play, but that didn't happen.

anyone that hates on bama is silly.
TX barely escaped a bradford-less Oklahoma.

If bradford would not have gone down...TX would not have been in pasadena. end of story.
