Who cares about all that BS. Bama was the best team in the nation and they proved it.

That's not the point at all. They very well may have been the best team.
But the facts remain that the BCS computations and calculations that determine teams' BCS rankings were flat out ignored and thrown out the window on Dec. 7, 2011.
Again, Alabama may have been a better team than Oklahoma State, BUT - Oklahoma State was NOT given the same consideration as Alabama was.
One more time - 7 BCS Human Poll Voters and Coaches dropped Oklahoma State from 3rd or 4th to 5th or 6th """"""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""" A F T E R """""""""""""""""""""""
Oklahoma State destroyed Oklahoma - which was supposed to put OSU over the top and have them jump Alabama - a 3rd place conference team, with a much weaker SOS (2 "supposed" rock-hard criteria for deciding the teams.)

You can talk until your Skoal-brown in the face about 'Alabama was the better team and they proved it', but the fact remains that THOSE SEVEN VOTERS and media bias put Alabama into that game,
""""""""""""""""""" N O T """"""""""""""" the agreed upon BCS criteria, calculations and point system...
