i beat both of you to it.

at least last year's alabama was the best one loss team available.

Alabama wouldn't be in the NC game over an undefeated OSU this year, though. OSU would be there if not for the bowl ban.

You're assuming that Ohio St would've won their conference title game.

Alabama could have an arguement if OSU was bowl eligible...the fact that no SEC team has ever lost a bowl against OSU...



Oh.

Wait.

Maybe one day Arkansas will be good enough to back into a title game.

Maybe.

And UM would not have been at OSU if not for what got them the ban in the first place, ergo not the same team if not banned. You are also assuming they would have won their conference championship.

Some people are so stupid. Why does everyone automatically assume that things would turn out the same if you changed something in the past? Who's to say the postseason ban didn't motivate Ohio State into playing with an us-against-the-world mentality all year? Who's to say the pressure of being on the cusp of a BCSNCG birth wouldn't have affected them the way it affected Oregon, K-State and arguably Alabama?

I mean, come on. Use your damn brain.
